Politics > Hillary Clinton: "Me too!"

At 9:30 Saturday morning Hillary announced she's running for president.

Most P.R. people recommend announcing bad news late on Friday so it gets ignored. The theory is that reporters have gone home for the weekend and by Monday odds are some other news will have overtaken yours. You don't announce something on Friday afternoon that you want people to hear, much less Saturday.

Not only did Hillary announce on a weekend, she's announcing after Barrack Obama announced. The Sunday talk shows are already booked. The Sunday editorials are already written. Obama's the news, not her.

I expected Hillary to have more media savvy than this.

I'm going to take this moment to be the first to welcome our 2008 Republican majority Congress.

Joy.
