A hobbit speaks

In the Fellowship of the Ring, my friend, the hobbit Frodo, stands above the pack.

A masterful wordsmith, who writes from his heart, Mr. Frodo has penned some thoughts about former President Bill Clinton. Worth reading!

“Frodo, Keeper of the Ring”

On this, his latest commentary, Frodo is on the mark!

Perhaps Hillary should loose SC so that maybe her hubby will get the message, to back off!

I don't want to get into trouble , but I think we are looking at "normal politics" here. Bill has some pull with people who supported him all along. It is only natural to go on the campaign trail. Spouses do this. And he has a following.

I don't think I've thought too much about his agony in hurting his wife with his womanizing. It had a history long before Ms. Lewinsky. It is a very seperate issue from the presidency or the coming presidency.

In the beginning of his term--remember back--I remember both he and Hillary with all four hands held high claiming, "Two for One!" Meaning we got two for one. Many people were shocked and offended by the presumption of the move! We had voted, and not for two. Now there were two. I didn't particularly care about the Vice President, but hey what about him? We had voted for him as the other half of the team. Time passed and that stopped. Their PR team told them that wasn't going to wash.

Politicians try things to find what works, and certainly don't leave out anything that may work in the short time to campaign.

I think Hillary needs to use any long-term image that presents her in some kind of focus as a politician or candidate. I think it's a grave mistake, and she should not have tried to move so directly to the presidency. She has never let her experience speak for her, but jumped, jumped, jumped to the fore. Good tactic, but not for the Presidency. But I am only one voice.

Get me with the wet noodle. I'm living in the Pacific Northwest. If the weather here is not punishment enough, get me with the wet noodle.

Fresh out of wet noodles. Threw them at the TV during the Repug debate tonight. As for those who comment here, this blog is a “free marketplace of ideas.” BJ
