It wasn't long ago that Hillary Rodham Clinton's campaign scoffed at the notion that young voters would deliver an election. How quickly things can change.
Just seconds into her speech Friday morning, Clinton was declaring herself the candidate for America's youth , stealing a page from the new Democratic presidential front-runner, Barack Obama. The night before, the under-30 crowd came out in larger numbers than ever in Iowa caucuses normally dominated by the AARP-card set, delivering victory for the Illinois senator who promised to bring change to Washington.
That's why after her third-place finish in Iowa, Clinton got off her plane in New Hampshire and declared: "This is especially about all of the young people in New Hampshire who need a president who won't just call for change, or a president who won't just demand change, but a president who will produce change, just like I've been doing for 35 years."
"I'm running for president to reclaim the future , the future for all of us, of all ages, but particularly for young Americans," she said a few seconds later...

It is incidental that chameleon rhymes with clinton, but surely Hillary is rhyming up steadily as the campaign goes full throttle. She is really dust in the wind, going whichever way the wind blows, such that when you open your eyes, it (dust in the wind) hurts. She is patently inauthentic, especially when listening to her, sounding so hollow without any semblance of sincerity in what she blurts out. She is virtually a robot mouthing platitudes that are meaningless or at best, presumptuous. It is not all that bleak really if and when she gets to the White House, it will become Gray House of Blue House, etc. and eventually be known as Chameleon House.

When? Naw, can't happen. I'm thinking if she moves in, I'll move. Yes, I'll go to ...Perusstanbrazealonetherbuhl.The north side, of course. Hopefully I won't have to worry about it...what's the climate there anyway?
O Stacey, your clinton fatigue is understandable, but Hillary is counting on gender power and somehow you don't resonate. Now, let me see ... Perustan is in the region of bora bora (methinks) so the weather must be a charm.
The way I see it, in that case, it's a win/win situation! :)
She's once again reinventing herself. Her theatrics worked in New Hampshire but I still hope that voters will see through her and finally boot her out of the race.
