HUBRIS
You know, the Clintons have lost me totally.
Money, power and prestige will do you in every time.
I still am proud of Bill and his administration
But the time to step down has come for him some time ago.
The sad thing is that he did step down and was building an admirable reputation as an independent elder statesman. Perhaps he can restore himself after this.
Perhaps she can become a great Senator. Maybe she will get to the Supremes as some hope and expect.
I have never bought into the idea that the Clintons were two for the price of one.
I honestly believed that she had the strength and ability to stand on her own.
The long campaign has shown her major weaknesses. And his.
Together they are less than the sum of the parts.
It is too bad but there it is.
The Nineties are over.
And so are the Clintons.
