What is it with these Hillary surrogates putting themselves in the limelight? Bill has famously turned the focus on himself, in effect giving Hillary's concession speech on a recent losing night and more recently exhorting people to elect "me."
Today it was Madeleine Albright's turn. Speaking with Wolf Blitzer on this afternoon's Situation Room ostensibly for purposes of promoting Hillary Clinton, Madame Secretary managed to use the "I" word 20 times in under four minutes. Throw in one "my" and another "myself" and that's more than a score of self references.
View edited video clip here.
Maybe it was just a way of revving up that Mexican-American vote Hillary's counting on in Texas: I, I, I!
Aside: Perhaps a bit defensive about CNN being called the "Clinton News Network," Wolf went out of his way at the end of the interview to say: "I just want to point out that yesterday we spent this time talking with Governor Janet Napolitano of Arizona. She's a supporter of Barack Obama."

Coin Flip
February 26, 2008 - 18:02 ET by m36b1Wow! Now that truly is a coin-flip question if I ever saw one. Remind me - did either of these oafs ever catch the grief that Condi Rice has from the MSM and libs in general for their own heavy-handed tactics?
HMM...
February 26, 2008 - 18:06 ET by danybhoyJanet Reno did take some stick over Waco, but if that were Condi's eff-up, you would still be hearing about it today. Reno survived that & sending Ellian Gonzalez back to Cuba. I still don't know how.

February 26, 2008 - 18:04 ET by Cool Arrow"Hands up" if you happen to be Elian Gonzales facing an M-16.
Or if you happen to be a child held hostage by a man Janet Reno has already judged as mentally unstable. No matter, she'll throw out all the rules and treat your situation totally contrary to the book.
Sorry the kids didn't make it.

February 26, 2008 - 18:14 ET by Cool ArrowSweet Madelaine believed our coalition was not broad enough to legitimize our invasion of Iraq.
Remember, shortly after being named Sec of State she was informed her birth parents died in a concentration camp. Wonder if her parents would have insisted on a "legitimate" coalition.

I'll take Reno ("...we had to kill them to prevent them from being abused.") over Notbright, but the queen idiot is still Elders!

February 26, 2008 - 18:10 ET by midnight cowboyI think Madeline Nottoobright is one of the biggest disasters in American diplomacy. If I was her, I would hide my head in shame, for cozing up to what I believe are the world's most henious thugs that I and the rest of the world has known. I dare Ms. Nottoobright to show me and the word her accomplishments other than arming a nuclear North Korea and replacing cold showers to un arouse pubescent males. I know many on both sides of the aisle that agree with me that this.

Clinton Campaign Misses the Mark Again

February 26, 2008 - 18:30 ET by bigtimerCwg...
Seems more and more of the Clinton fold are flying out of their nest to protect their own selves and their so-called legacies while the Clintoons are losing any that they thought they had....and planned on continuing.
I know the msm will always protect the Clintons in the end and lie about their real history but this has been fun watching a lot of them, getting to be the majority of all different jobs and stripes in the dem party exiting their grip ASAP.

I turned by some show on
February 26, 2008 - 18:49 ET by Chris NormanI turned by some show on CNBC the other night and the guests were Steven Moore and the midget liberal economist and Richard Dreyfuss sound-a-like, Robert Reich. I heard Reich (positively) shreiking, "I was Secretary of Labor! I was Secretary of Labor!" and had to change it. Seems narcissism wasn't just limited to the Clintons in the Clinton Administration...
Austin Powers Revival
February 26, 2008 - 19:34 ET by CaringwhiteguyIf Mike Myers ever decides to make another Austin Powers movie they might consider getting Reich to play the long-lost twin of Mini-me. As much as he likes having his mug on TV, Reich just might do it.

February 26, 2008 - 19:06 ET by docbNapolatino did not use the I word nearly to that extent and stuck to the issues deflecting Wolfies loaded 'clinton' questions every time...It is not without note that the clinton legacy is tied to the"I" teams consistant revisionist memory of the events of the '90's. Surely we should remember that Madeliene was dancing with Kim Jong Ill with the couvosier bottle close to hand and stood behind bclinton to backup his claim of 'no sex with that woman'... Consider the source.
