Oh, politics UPDATED

Pity poor Hillary Clinton, burdened with the "baggage" of her husband's scandalous yet much-missed two-term presidency. This strikes me as absurd--it is precisely because Senator Clinton's husband was president that she has the name recognition to be in the running herself. Some may hold Bill's reputation against her, but if there were no Bill, who'd have heard of Hillary in the first place?

UPDATE

Via Gawker, I see that a potentially far superior candidate might soon hit the political scene. I mean, sure, Mr. Sheffield would pull some strings, but her style and flair deserve most of the credit for any future successes.
