About Hillary

The other night, I saw a repeat run of The Graham Norton Show featuring Hillary Clinton, when she was promoting her book about the loss of the election.

As noted in this piece of commentary, she came across as nice, sharp and emotionally together.   I kept thinking "this is the woman about whom the Right wing internet idiot machine kept finding so called "experts" to claim that she was virtually on death's door during the campaign.  Aren't they embarrassed to see this?"   But I've never heard anyone from that side express any regret about that conspiracy nonsense...

I don't know if you are a seinfeld fan but he has real chemistry with almost all the guests, and some of the interviews were either really funny or really interesting (depending on the comedian - Sarah Jessica Parker for instance isn't a natural wit but Alec Baldwin is)

Just about the only interview which I think didn't go well was Howard Stern who struck me as a knob

Just on Hillary one interesting thing about her is she is quite popular when she has a job but not when she does not.

If she had have won as she should have if she was any sort of politician and clearly she is not her ratings would have jumped significantly.

She lost to the ommpaloompa. That how truly pathetic she is.

Very close to 3 million, or 2.1%, more voters preferred her to Trump. A unlucky loss in a lousy system rather than an embarrassing one, surely. Unless your from Catallaxy, where facts don't matter.
