Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton responded to reports that former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg was considering a presidential bid by calling him a “good friend.”
Bloomberg’s intentions were reported Saturday by The New York Times. Clinton addressed them during an interview with NBC’s “Meet the Press.”
“He’s a good friend of mine,” Clinton said. “And I’m going to do the best I can to make sure that I get the nomination and we’ll go from there.”
Of course he is. They run in the same circles.
A good friend who threatens to run as a spoiler if the voters don’t nominate her. An offer you can’t refuse, eh?
Don’t expect any Wall Street regulation from Clinton; no Glass Steagall, just an empty gesture at “something better” that fails, so she can say, you know, she “tried”.
God she’s nauseating.
Much like Ruth Bader Ginsberg owing to her friendship with Antonin Scalia.
I don´t have quite so visceral a reaction, but I am awfully tired of the ¨Life Styles of the Rich and Famous" aspect to the Clintons. Vonnegut said something along the lines of Republican Pols are rich people who profess no sympathy for the poor, whereas D pols are rich people who do express sympathy, but do little else. The Clintons are living embodiments of that slam.
