Dancing Days Are Here Again For Hillary Clinton?

Monday, May 26th, 2008

It was one of the happiest days we’ve seen her spend on the campaign trail in weeks — and given the last few days, a much needed one.

Hillary Clinton started her Sunday morning at an evangelical church in Puerto Rico, swaying from side to side and clapping her hands as a band and choir played Latin-infused Christian rock. After changing from a serious turquoise pantsuit to a more festive pink floral top, Clinton hit the beach — grooving to the sounds of salsa music while watching a live dance troupe.

Following a leisurely lunch by the water and a 9-minute speech featuring a debate challenge for Barack Obama, Clinton changed costumes again — this time back to the turquoise — for her speech on Cuba, then headed to the bar to shake hands with the locals in San Juan.

While there, she ordered a Presidente, a Dominican beer, drinking a toast with her Puerto Rico advisers. On her way out the door, she advised two traveling TV reporters that they were free to start drinking as well — before stopping to groove for a few seconds to the Enrique Iglesias hit “Be With You” with a certain Fox producer.

That’s right: I danced with Hillary Clinton.

The Senator’s dance party didn’t continue into the night — at least, not as far as I know. Clinton enjoyed a late meal with staff at her hotel in San Juan before retiring. She hits the campaign trail with her husband on Monday, joining up with her daughter to wrap up her three-day swing through the commonwealth before catching a plane to Washington.

Better Beer Buddy: Barack or Hillary?

Tuesday, February 19th, 2008

In Madison, WI last night, Hillary Clinton repeated her argument that likeability shouldn’t matter in a presidential election — telling a cheering audience “we don’t need to have a beer with the next president. We had that president.”

But this time, the admitted lager-lover said she’d be interested in grabbing a pint with the American people as well – though her bar talk might be a bit more heavy than the average pub patron might prefer. “I’d be happy to have a beer too,” she said. “We could talk about what we’re going to do to solve our problems in the future.”

So who would you rather have a beer with, Barack or Hillary?
