[NYTIMES] And everybody was just so surprised.

#12  Any chance she's running to get the cash and then will drop out for the sake of her party? Maybe be the booster rocket for Elisabeth Warren?

Otherwise I can't really see why she's running. She has to know the election is going to be Bengazhi and email scandel with a side of Bill flying to an island to hang with underage girls and for what? What she really needs now is someone to be elected who will not investigate and prosecute.

#11  There's more of them than there are of us, B.
But they'll need us soon.

#10  Technically they still need voters to confer upon themselves an air of legitimacy, hence the theater to confuse us into voting for them. Never mind that dead people and illegal aliens dilute our votes while the theater distracts us.

#9  But would such "Confluence of purpose" design a theater for the little people?

#7  Announced on the day that season 5 of Game of Thrones premiered. Embarrassing typos in her announcement. Pointed people to a broken YouTube link.

Methinks her heart is not in it.

#6  121 fundraising people either fled the US or refused to testify at the Senate Committee into Campaign finance scandal under the last Clinton administration. "That's quite a lot," said Christopher Hitchens on the promo trail for his book on Bill "No-one left to lie to".

121 people refusing to say what they know about the political corruption of the electotral process.

Hitchens thought that scandal would prove to be linked to China's theft of nuclear intelligence.

he thought Clinton was more corrupt than Nixon.

Hillary apologised for him and blamed everyone else for his Monica Lewinski scandal in which he bombed the wrong target in Sudan because Monica was due to testify to the grand jury and he kept the joint chiefs of staff and the cia and fbi out of the decision making process so he could rush the missile strikes to fit in with his personal court diary!

#5  Not necessarily, g.

Confluence of purpose can look a lot like conspiracy at times.

#4  The political process is meaningless theater designed for the little people.

Implying some secret cabal. But, such a cabal, would show some concern about America's welfare---if only to preserve their power base.

#3  LOL Besoeker it has always been #2. It is #2 in Australia which is now the Panopticon prison spy state ruled by secret police.

#2  And you thought Obumbles was bad.

Now you'll have America's Worst Family back in business.

Bill "Nobody left to lie to" Clinton - did anybody see the cover of Christopher Hitchen's classic? Where Big Bill has a pursed, buttoned up, supercilious grin on his face as if he's looked around the room and indeed he cannot find a single person left to lie to.
