Andrea Mitchell is on BREAKING NEWS dissing Hillary. FFS!

[Hortensis]

17. Andrea Mitchell is a conservative and worked hard and

consistently to defeat Hillary. It's also personal, not just political.

She and Sally Quinn belong to the same A-list circle all ambitious people in DC are eager to have entree to, including journalists. Long before Hillary arrived in DC as the new first lady, they were chortling over and spreading vicious stories about her, as vulgar and unprincipled as any lowlifes doing the same when the stories arrived as emails in the rest of the nation. But when first lady Hillary, knowing this, turned down an invitation to dinner at Quinn's, their hostility became a vendetta that continues to this day.

You know, there's no honorable or even respectable-appearing ground to back up to for people who've behaved this way for decades, even if they were capable of wanting to.

You may have noticed at the Democratic convention that Andrea behaved as if she was ill and might collapse. She's done a lot of silly acting out a bunch of times over the years, like when Hillary was elected to the Senate, but this time she was so weak and bent that I wondered if she could be genuinely ill and need to be in the hospital. Nope, just the usual malice masquerading as despair.
