The Clintons want to do big worthy things, but they also want to squeeze money from rich people wherever they live on planet Earth, insatiably gobbling up cash for politics and charity and themselves from the same incestuous swirl.

I think Hillary Clinton's a very clever politician but she would be too easy to stereotype the way John Kerry was.

Women have become so obsessed with not withering, they've forgotten that there are infinite ways to be beautiful.

It takes a lot of adrenaline and fear to make me actually write.

Since Hillary Clinton is the first time we've had a woman who was a serious contender for president, it's been an adjustment to watch her more changeable looks, and to see the lengths she goes to get the right lighting and to make the right wardrobe choices. Her campaign is devising strategies to humanize her and make her seem more warm and maternal.

Zingers should glow with intelligence as well as drip with contempt.

I find having a column a very difficult form of journalism. I'm not a natural like Tom Friedman and Anna Quindlen.
