(33,688 posts)She's addicted to it by now, Willy.
Like Richard Nixon was, she is obsessed with holding the office for the sake of holding the office and nothing more. There's no big plan or goal, she won't answer any direct questions, it's just an all-consuming obsession with the office at this point and a titanic sense of entitlement to it. Just like Nixon in that respect.
Whatever underlying goal she may have once had, if she ever had one at all, has long been forgotten. Why else would she spend so much time buddying around with some of the vilest people on earth (Kissinger, Blankfein, Murdoch to name just three)? There's nothing left of her but blind, naked ambition for its own sake.
No Clinton has ever had any core principle than self-advancement by any means necessary.
And that is why we need Bernie so badly.
