Monster bails
By Creature
It's a shame Samantha Power, the Obama foreign policy advisor who called Hillary a "monster" and more, was forced to resign today. Yes, the statement was out of bounds, but Powers was one of the reasons to like Obama and the team of advisors he had assembled. In a saner day Power's sincere apology would have been enough. Hillary's team could have taken the high-road and accepted the apology, but they did not. If there's one thing you can count on, when faced with a high-road, the Clinton team will always take the off-ramp to the low one.

Samantha Powers was betrayed by a news correspondent ... her statement was supposed to be off the record.
And Hillary Clinton, of course, is acting like a pit bull who never lets go. I have no more reserve of good will for the Clintons anymore. As far as I am concerned, they have become Republicans.
