MSNBC's Mark Halperin: Hillary proving how 'fun' and 'new' she is
According to the left, Bill Clinton's Wife is 100% qualified to be President. Heck, she's probably overqualified. Despite the fact that her decades long career has rendered her incapable of naming a single concrete achievement, Hillary's allies claim that she is eminently capable.

...But they also acknowledge that nobody likes her. Hillary, they claim, doesn't have a competency problem, she has an image problem. This, obviously, is asinine. Despite their assertions to the contrary, Hillary's time in the Senate and the State Department has everyone questioning her abilities. Thanks to a seemingly endless array of high profile failures, her acceptance - at least in terms of her Presidential fitness - is far from a fait accompli. In reality it's probably at its lowest level since She and Bill left the White House. Still, just for fun, let's let them have it for a moment. For a second we'll pretend that she's ready for the Oval Office. How then, does she fix her image issues? Well... According to the absolute worst bit of political analysis I've ever seen, she eats a burrito. That's the word from Mark Halperin - senior political analyst for MSNBC, Time Magazine, and Time.com:
“Her problem now is not to prove to people that she’s ready to be president, because people think she is. The two words she needs are: ‘fun’ and ‘new.’” “Part of why yesterday was so successful is she looks like she’s having fun, and she’s doing, for her, new stuff. We’ve never seen her get a burrito before.”
This is, to say the absolute least, stretching things. Yesterday was not successful. She wandered into a Chipotle ordered her super-fun burrito and, according to The Daily News, went almost completely unrecognized and spoke to no one.
She wasn’t, like, obvious and no one made a scene,” Wright said. “She just came through like a regular customer — and we treated her just like a regular customer.” Only one customer seemed to recognize he was in the presence of a newly minted presidential hopeful and snapped some pictures, Wright said. “He was the only one who really seemed to notice her,” he said.
Here's the Daily News' headline. It screams "success." MSNBC's Mark Halperin: Hillary proving how 'fun' and 'new' she is ...by eating a burrito! Whoooooo! How "fun and fresh" is that? She really is the life of the party. More important than her ability to go completely unrecognized whenever she wants a little mid-range comfort food are the following questions... A burrito? Seriously? That was yesterday's big play? Is this how low the media is going to have to stoop in order to sell America on the "new, improved, Hillary?" How long are the Clintons' press allies willing to debase themselves before they recognize the utter futility of their mission? A word of advice to the legacy media: If this is the best the Clintons can do with their "rebranding exercise," you should jump ship immediately. Their campaign is already dead in the water. h/t HotAir
