A glimpse of the Clintonism to come

I’ve asked before about what policies we might expect if voters tack an additional four years on to the already four decades of Clintonism the nation has endured. Mrs. Clinton provides us a sample:

In other words, we “stay the course,” but with the additional weight of increasingly infantilized adults.

This doesn’t exactly square with Mrs. Clinton’s effort to squelch the idea that her presidency would be little more than a third Obama term. Or a third term for Bill:

“We’re going to make clear, I’m not running for my husband’s third term or for President Obama’s third term,” one person recalled her saying. “I’m running to make history on my own.”

Putting aside that bit of narcissism for a moment…no. That’s the whole point. The differences between Hillary and Barack, or even Hillary and Bill, will be at the margins. Perhaps she will run more to Mr. Obama’s left on certain issues, as the New York Times indicates, but it’s all nuance.

Her appeal is purely transactional. Install Hillary in the White House, and it ticks the historic box “first woman elected president.” As part of that bargain — which appeals to many — we will have to agree all the baggage doesn’t matter.

And we have to take Bill, too. And Chelsea. Can’t forget her. But maybe not so much Hugh or Tony Rodham (for the moment). And let’s hope Roger Clinton gets lost in the shuffle.

The policy stuff? Eh. A few tweaks, a few feints, maybe a couple of outliers. Otherwise, Clintonism will lumber on.
