"A word after a word after a word is power”

8.22.2006

And speaking of The Huffington Post ...

I'm not one to pile on Hillary Clinton. I think she'd make a decent president and I'm not overly concerned about the fact (which seems to shock some people) that she's a politician and does, well ... political things.

But Arianna Huffington has a post up today that I think raises a good point.

Hillary's playing by the old rules and she'd better shape up if she hopes to win the nomination. Keeping your head down and rocking with the waves might be good advice in a normal storm, but the political hurricane headed the Democrats' way is going to call for energetic leadership from whomever gets the party's nomination.

Right now, Hillary isn't showing that she has what it takes.

I still don't believe that people in America will vote for a woman president.

But the other day, Corby's aunt said that she knows "a bunch" of people who will vote for Hillary because "they know if she's president, Bill Clinton will really be running things."

I don't know if that's a good thing or not: Americans *will* vote for a woman president, but only because they believe her husband will be the "power behind the throne?" Is that progress? Cause it doesn't sound like it...
