The Third Estate Sunday Review focuses on politics and culture. We're an online magazine. We don't play nice and we don't kiss butt. In the words of Tuesday Weld: "I do not ever want to be a huge star. Do you think I want a success? I refused "Bonnie and Clyde" because I was nursing at the time but also because deep down I knew that it was going to be a huge success. The same was true of "Bob and Carol and Fred and Sue" or whatever it was called. It reeked of success."

What exactly has she done?
At her campaign site, Hillary Clinton offers "112 reasons (and counting!) Hillary Clinton should be our next president."
But reading them fails to convince us.
Better question: She had eight years since her last run for the Democratic Party's presidential nomination.
What does she have to show for it?
Since she always knew she'd be running in 2016, you'd think she'd have tried to build up a resume, create some accomplishments.
Instead, she went with photo ops and speeches.
Eight years and nothing to show for it.
Pretty much a whole life and nothing to show for it.
What has Hillary accomplished?
She did run for the US Senate and win.
We'll give her that.
She was First Lady only because she was married to Bill Clinton.
She was Secretary of State because Barack Obama picked her.
Did she do anything earth shattering with either role?
No.
She posed for pictures.
She was involved in scandals.
No real leadership.
No real impact.
8 years, a whole life, and nothing to show for it.
Where's your big accomplishment, Hillary?
How about posting that?
