An insightful–and intriguing–remark from one of Jonah’s correspondents:
I really think that Hillary really *is* the Democratic Nixon. I can’t think of another American politician she resembles more: paranoid, ambitious, steely determination combined with an oddly fragile, wounded ego, programmed, robotic, cold, calculating, almost devoid of humor or any sense of irony about the self.

I tend to agree, I’m sorry to say.

In one of the bios I read about HRC similar comparisons were made. And I agree with them.

Interesting thought. Nixon was an excellent President, even if not a very likeable fellow.
My problem with Hillary is not so much her personality (although her reputation for honesty is questionable). I don’t like her politics.

That does sound like a pretty good characterization of Hillary Clinton. Interesting!
