Good point Jim. I fully expect the general news media to exhault Hillary as some sort of Joan of Arc or a female version of Moses, where her efforts on Capitol Hill will bring her to lead all New Yorkers to the promised land. And I enjoy it when the media fails to mention that, in eight years in the White House, her only "accomplishment" was screwing up the health care industry. Oh yeah, there was that book "It Takes A Village," but then we find out later (no big shocker) that a ghost writer wrote it for her. Yeah, she's some tough dame alright; such an "asset" that Clinton's handlers forced her into hiding during the 1996 campaign because she was viewed as a huge liability.

My point is that I don't want to hear about it on CNBC. I look at CNBC the way a mechanic would view going to the Craftsman tools department at Sears. When Alina Cho gushes over Hillary and her choice of designer clothing, I feel like I am watching People Magazine on TV. Perhaps Geraldo Rivera is in charge of writing the general newscopy at CNBC now.

Maybe CNBC will interview Hillary to get her views on cattle futures. I don't understand why she wants to run in NY state. The media will tear her to shreds.
