It's been wall-to-wall Clinton coverage over the past two weeks, attention that reminds people of the circus that forever surrounds the Clintons. Time's new cover -- and the accompanying story -- try to get at the Clinton conundrum -- political stars that operate under their own set of rules -- that seems like it has always been with us.
Writes the amazing David Von Drehle:
Along with her husband–the 42nd President of the United States–Hillary Clinton is the co-creator of a soap-operatic political universe in which documents vanish, words like is take on multiple meanings and foes almost always overplay their hand. Impeachment can be a route to higher approval ratings; the occasional (and rare) defeat merely marks the start of the next campaign. Whatever rules may apply to them, the law of gravity is not one.
