27. But the thing about the Clintons is, they don't care about how many moving parts
there are. So, I while I agree with His Honor about them not understanding a plan in the complexity that you've articulated, that doesn't mean they don't have a plan or at least, an M.O.

The Clintons, frankly, remind me a lot of someone in my family who is very successful. She doesn't mind how much china gets broken moment by moment because she's smart enough to exploit most situations. And, damn the broken crockery.

The Clintons don't use fine tools. They've never needed to use them. Obama beat them exactly by being able to deploy patience and making things modular and by having layered, flexible, long term plans. They are sprinters, he's a distance guy.

I'm not at all sure that they won't, moment by moment and fifty yards at a time decide to keep competing. They've never done anything else.
