Jim Geraghty of National Review and Greg Corombos of Radio America are once again relieved that Hillary Clinton is not president after she once again blames everyone and everything but herself for losing to Donald Trump. They are also puzzled as a flurry of lobbying in favor of the climate deal takes place after Trump supposedly decided to withdraw from it. And they react to former Vice President Joe Biden starting a new Super PAC and fueling speculation that he may run for president in 2020 in a primary that could feature many elderly Democrats.

Clinton is running to be the patron saint of Festivus.
You’re right, Joe and The Olde Guarde all seem to be poised to move forward in any way they might want. But there is one person who could get the political office money machine geared up faster than any other around, and that is Michelle. She already has the anger, the hectoring, the anti-capitalist-anti-colonialist-anti-American, “burn this mf’er down” attitudes so necessary to fulfill the desires of the vast majority of the Democrat party.
All we don’t know is whether she has the insatiable lust for power. We do know she hated being First Lady, and hated the White House. But maybe it was because she was without power. All the efforts she undertook were sort of ex-officio and she didn’t have to work to terribly hard to accomplish, as Congress didn’t have to be involved (like school food).
I think she may prefer the mode of only getting radically active as a break from a luxurious OPM lifestyle. But if she actually wanted it, and it was evident in her demeanor and not faked – yee doggies, $$$$$$$FLOW!!!
I love it!
