She plants questions. If you haven't heard, Hillary Clinton and her campaign staff have been in Iowa ruining their chances to win the nomination. Not only are they not tipping waitresses, they're also planting questions in the audiences she speaks to. The one she was caught on was from a college student who asked what Hillary Clinton planned to do about global warming.
Rather than doing the smart thing and admitting that global warming is an enormous farce, she answered the question just as she had planned. What she didn't plan for, was the college student coming forth admitting to the press that she had been directed to ask that question.
I always questioned Hillary's merits in staying with her husband, Bill, after all of the numerous sex scandals during his terms in office. Now I no longer question it. Both are equally untrustworthy. Both are equally oily and power-driven. They are perfect for each other.
Here's a nice bit about Hillary by Peggy Noonan. To see the full article, which I highly recommend, click here. It compares Margaret Thatcher with Hillary Clinton, and leaves HC wanting.
"A word on toughness. Mrs. Clinton is certainly tough, to the point of hard. But toughness should have a purpose. In Mrs. Thatcher's case, its purpose was to push through a program she thought would make life better in her country. Mrs. Clinton's toughness seems to have no purpose beyond the personal accrual of power. What will she do with the power? Still unclear. It happens to be unclear in the case of several candidates, but with Mrs. Clinton there is a unique chasm between the ferocity and the purpose of the ferocity. There is something deeply unattractive in this, and it would be equally so if she were a man. "

I like your use of the word "oily" in this post. Nice job. I enjoy reading the political stuff because I'm not that informed on it.
