 Clinton Denies Designs on Biden’s ThronePosted on Oct 13, 2011
What’s a secretary of state to do in the face of international terrorism and domestic unrest? Why, she should set the record straight on the “Today” show, which is just what Hillary Clinton did Thursday to tackle cloak-and-dagger rumors that she might replace Vice President Joe Biden in 2012 and to call the story of an alleged attempt on a Saudi ambassador’s life by Iranian agents “a state-sponsored act of terror,” adding that “the world needs to speak out strongly against it.” Clinton got a jump on that mission, thanks to the NBC morning show and her agreeable interviewer, Savannah Guthrie, who chirps in the clip (below excerpt) that the bomb plot certainly was “brazen.” On the VP tip, Clinton came prepared with another pithy answer, flexing her cyber-savviness in her denial that she’d bump Biden off Obama’s ticket in 2012: “It’s maybe a subject for speculation on Google, but it’s not a serious issue in the administration,’’ she said. —KA

All the Hillary haters get one more opportunity to gush out their tripe on Truthdig. When you’re finished trying desperately to diminish her, in the real world, her favorability rating with the public, establishes her as the most highly honored and respected political figure in the U.S. Keep vomiting your bile, creeps.

Politics has degenerated into little more than a celebrity gossip hunt. The preening and
self satisfaction of the political class, as the country disintegrates into financial ruin, is a
grotesquerie of human absurdities, like watching the people at the zoo instead of the
animals.
And this is our political leadership?

Personally, I think she’s had it with the Obama administration. Not that she would
have done things much differently - although she may have been smarter and
“appeared” not so much of a push-over.
However, a ” first African American President” was a better marketing device than a
