| 17. Senator Clinton inherits a world made worse by Dubya's overt negligence |
|
and mismanagement.
But she's infinitely smarter than he is and likely far more resourceful in mobilizing Good versus Dubya's instigation of Bad.
She may be poised for true greatness. I did not support her for the nomination. But her new job, although it comes with peril aplenty, may be one she is ready to undertake.
And who is to say but that she might be very, very good at it.
I'm rooting for her to succeed, not just on behalf of her new boss but for the people of the Middle East whose lives have been so wretchedly upended for so long.
Go, Hillary.
