There has been some current commentary to the effect that the Democrats may commit the Clinton "couple' to the political deep, with disgrace aforehand. This would be a purely tactical move on their part and we must not allow it to be widely perceived as a belated expression of regret for past Democrat party devotion to this tawdry pair. They are advancing it now only cynically for gain in 2018 and 2020.
Democrats probably perceive that Hillary has shot the bolt in her fevered and perhaps even pitiable (given the disgrace her "husband" relentlessly visited upon her) lifetime pursuit of ultimate vindictive power. She shows signs of considering a laughable Stassenesque reprise and they fear the consequences of such an embarrassing spectacle. So a preemptive PR strike on her may be in the works though I don't know what form it might take. Perhaps abandoning her to the consequences of her scandalous past? Oh, if only she would just retire to the Mondale - Dukakis - Kerry old wronged and perversely denied candidates home. . . But, convinced of her irrefutable righteousness and facing the boomer urge for a last hurrah, she may not cooperate. Oh, what to do!?
Now "Bill", that's a different matter. Oh how the chickens do come home to roost, to use a metaphor familiar to many from the rural roots which nonetheless gave rise (as it were) to Slick Willy (no quote marks necessary). Nobody, but nobody, can refute his well deserved reputation as a cad. But credible evidence has been advanced and is now being reiterated, with potentially catastrophic implications for him, that he is a forcible rapist (not to mention the long since affirmed reality of him as a perjuror, a draft dodger and one who denied an American citizen a meaningful day in court despite being, unimaginably now, the titular chief law enforcement officer of this Union of ours). For 71 years, his ability to hide behind a corkscrew has facilitated his escape from the consequences of his willingly enacted misdeeds. Now his apologists may leave him to swing and his long delayed and deserved reckoning with the real America may be at hand.
Why, the venerable Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, she of the laughable Presidential ambitions as a stalking horse (a Lurleen Wallace if you will) for the unelectable Charles Schumer (and his undoubted shill since her appointment to office) has opined that Slick Willy should have resigned. Well that does it; all it will take now is for Elizabeth Warren to declare that he needs a haircut and the Dems are shut of this execrable legacy.
But they are not and we should never let them be. Once the Clintons and the boomers of whom they are exemplary pass in the next thirty years the nation can let it go. But until then be it never forgotten: the Dems willingly went to the wall for this disgusting pair which disgraced our White House beyond measure and with supreme presumption. Charles Schumer, a certainly still present power, denounced Willy's impeachment trial as "ridiculous". The Dems even anointed her! Let the Clintons be the Dems' deserved albatross for the foreseeable future. Jack

A sage analysis! Truthfully, I don't think the Dems could shed that albatross even if they wanted to. The Clintons crave the spotlight and will NEVER go gentle into the night. Whether Hillary has the stupefying lack of political instinct to try once again for the Presidency I don't know, but it can't be ruled out. Personally, I can't wait for 2020! The leftist free-for-all, and the circular firing squad it will create, will be a wonder to behold.
Dr. Waddy; One can hope we will see them reduced to charging $5 a pop for a royal audience in a sweltering tent at county fairs but that may be much to ask. Actually I had the pleasure of seeing a considerable number of attendees at my son's graduation from NYU, which was addressed by Slick Willy, sitting silently as he strode to the podium. I had to endure his preroration, as I wasn't going to walk out on my son's big day, but I got thru it. The Dems fully expect to be returned to their rightful place as the ruling elite and they will be beyond being lost if it doesn't happen. The last year's hyperbolic fit on their part begs the question of how much worse it could get with them. Will they consider seppuku?
