The circular firing squads have already formed, btw, and if you enjoy staying marginalized and allowing the Right to continue to run America, feel free to join them. Just be advised this blog is not participating.

And you would be wrong. I’m still waiting for the transcript, but I don’t remember that the name “Hillary” was even mentioned, by anybody.

A chunk of the discussion was off the record, and that chunk included a bit of strategizing — more I will not say — but getting the blogosphere behind Hillary was not part the program.

Naturally, everyone walks away from the blogger lunch, rightfully, respecting him. Nice warm and fuzzy. Strategy, well-executed.

You have a low opinion of the bloggers. Do you think we’re such rubes that we’d sell out for fried chicken?

Look, son, you weren’t there. I was. You are wrong.

Everything is political with the Clintons, which isn’t to say they aren’t good at, or into, policy, as well. Everything they engage in is done in anticipation of her presidential run.

Nothing in the two-hour discussion had anything to do with Hillary’s presidential run. On the other hand, I recall Bill talking about how the values and philosophy of the Enlightenment are reflected in the Constitution.

This is not intended to be a critical post.

The hell it wasn’t. You’re banned, btw.

Then, she, or her brain trust, decides to send out Bill first. Warm and charismatic; he’s the perfect bridge, the perfect emissary. No one is more respectful. He’s famous for making you feel as if you were the only one in the room. And, man, is he smart. No leader from any country has ever been embraced by the world’s leaders and their citizens the way Bill was.

Have you heard they’re celebrating Bill Clinton’s 60th Bday – a few months late – just before the November election, in NCY? The Rolling Stones will play at the party. They’ll collect big money that won’t be needed or used for the senate race and attempt to generate a big buzz in hopes of a huge electoral advantage that she can shop around the country, proving she’s elect-able, even among NY republicans.

This is not intended to be a critical post. They are good at what they do. I respect winning strategies. They’ve won every race they’ve run, but one, Bill’s second run for Gov of Arkansas. I think they are 8-1 (soon to be 9-1).

Helluva record.

The freight train, sheeza comin’. Get ready for a wild ride.

Was it about her? 08? (i hope no)

Yes and no. I don’t remember that we discussed the Senator at all.

Oh my, you are right! I should Photoshop that someday!
