It is increasingly obvious that the Hillary Clinton campaign for President has been mortally wounded.  The end is now inevitable.  My prediction is that Hillary will come down with an undisclosed illness and she will announce, on twitter, that she is reluctantly withdrawing from the race.  Then she and Bill will make a desperate effort to disappear.  This illness is also likely to prevent her from testifying before the Select Committee on Benghazi and it will prevent Hillary from complying with any requests for interviews and/or documents.

There are just too many scandals to ignore.  The stench is so overwhelming that even the far left can no longer ignore it.  Hillary will be lucky to avoid prosecution.   The handful of liberal Democrats with some residual brain cells has already started distancing themselves from Hillary.

That leaves the most important question of all.  Why did anyone ever consider her to be a good candidate for President?  She has no qualifications other than being a female.  Her willingness to tell absurd lies is well documented.  She has no discernable personality.  Now we know that the level of corruption is even worse than we imagined. The most shocking thing about all this is that none of this is shocking.  This was all too predictable.

Of course some of the true believers will always believe that the vast right-wing conspiracy destroyed Hillary for purely political purposes.  They will mourn the loss of a great leader.  The truth, of course, is that no vast right-wing conspiracy was required.  Hillary turned out to be Hillary’s own worst enemy.

At this point it is important to avoid gloating.  We need to remind ourselves that love and hate are not opposites; they are two sides of the same coin.  The proper response to someone like Hillary Clinton is not outrage, it is apathy.  We are very near the point where she can be safely ignored.  That is exactly where she belongs.
