Wine and turkey do not a good dinner meal make. I took two naps today, and in both cases turkey was involved. Speaking of turkey, I got a call and an endorsement tonight from, guess who? Bernadette Chirac, the wife of former French President Jacques Chirac. Bill says Bernadette is what I’ll look like in … Read More »
Iowa is a four letter word
November 21, 2007
Why can’t they just have a primary election like everyone else? What makes Iowa voters so special that they have to caucus to figure out who they might consider voting for if they actually had an election? I think it has something to do with the fear of being obscure. That happens to voters of … Read More »
George Bush meddles in Democratic campaign
November 20, 2007
Uh oh. George Bush is sticking his finger in the Democratic presidential campaign pie. This cross party meddling cannot be a good thing. Bush told an interviewer today, “There is no question that Senator Clinton understands pressure better than any of the candidates…” Well, duh. That’s what I’ve been saying for a year. But coming … Read More »
Iowa voters speak with forked tongue
November 19, 2007
Bill told me this would happen. Iowa voters lied to me. Every town hall meeting is the same. Everyone in attendance nods in agreement with everything I say. When I ask for their vote, they all nod as if they’re family, ready to line up and vote another Clinton into office. Then, someone conducts a … Read More »
Winning and losing
November 18, 2007
I just finished a well-deserved afternoon nap. I’m still rather euphoric after the Democratic presidential debate last week. What a high. Bill always tells me that it isn’t necessary to win a debate so long as the other guy loses. And that’s exactly what happened in the last debate. Winning is fun, but watching the … Read More »
Benazir’s advice on a change of power
November 17, 2007
It’s after 11:00 PM and the phone rings. Benazir Bhutto wants to talk. Again. Honestly, the woman never stops talking. It’s one conspiracy theory after another. The last time she called we talked, or, rather, I listened for 30 minutes before I realized it wasn’t Indira Ghandi on the line. I mean, I thought the … Read More »
Will you respect me in the morning?
November 16, 2007
It says something about the Democratic presidential campaign when Republican presidential candidates never mention anyone else but Hillary Clinton. Who do you suppose all the Republicans expect to run against next year? That would be me. The Republican front runners already are tossing dirt in my direction. Except John McCain. Why? I’m not sure. Rudy … Read More »
Bill’s presidential debate scorecard
November 15, 2007
Leaving Las Vegas is a good feeling. My special thanks to the boo birds who ‘volunteered’ to respond to Edwards’ and Obama’s little mud slinging episode. The Las Vegas debate put me back on track. Bill took notes during the debate. His scorecard belongs in the Clinton Library. I agree with his assessment of the … Read More »
