The trouble is that, even assuming she is still running, the only people who'll be watching her are those who are going to vote for her already. But at any rate, it is one thing to be a politician, and another to be a pundit. Walter Lipmann did not follow FD Roosevelt. Rush Limbaugh did not try to take over from the Bushes. There seems to me to be an inevitable difference in value and respect. And I hope she has enough to say; it's not easy for anyone to be lively and interesting once a week.
