Ouch! That's going to leave a mark:

"Rather than punish Solis Doyle or raise questions about her fitness to lead, Clinton chose her to manage the presidential campaign for reasons that should now be obvious: above all, Clinton prizes loyalty and discipline, and Solis Doyle demonstrated both traits, if little else. This suggests to me that for all the emphasis Clinton has placed on executive leadership in this campaign, her own approach is a lot closer to the current president’s than her supporters might like to admit.

1. Remember that Seinfeld episode when Elaine becomes a loser?

And she says, "Do you know what's happening? I've become George! I'M GEORGE!" Seems to fit here.

2. An interesting comparison.

One that I can definitely see in the, um, style with which she is running her campaign.

3. There are a lot more similarities to Bush and Clinton than a lot would want to admit...

The whole Schuster smackdown was very Bushlike.
So is "moving the goalposts" every time she loses a state.
Not to mention her stage managed town halls with planted questions.

8. Then there's this:

"If you didn’t like President Bush as a candidate, and you thought maybe he was too controlled and too secretive, you can have the same kind of concerns about Hillary Clinton – if you think the environment is too controlled and too calculated you worry about that might mean once she’s in office."

That's why such a big deal was made of it a few weeks back when she shared her plane with reporters. Of course now, people are speculating that she didn't have the money for two planes!

5. Oh snap.

6. Who else "prizes loyalty and discipline?" Answer: Bush!

Let's not put another fatally flawed person in the White House.

7. Amen!

9. Yes, to the exclusion of listening to anyone else. Good point.

10. one thing

loyalty and discipline is one thing. It's the putting of loyalty and discipline above competence that's very Bush like

11. Hillary is not a leader and doesn't know how to lead. She's a solo act. A supporter, not a leader.
