ace, you say you see "minor support role for the Republican party," but I see "leading the way towards whatever it is she thinks America needs to return to."

She's said herself that she'll do anything politically if she feels she'll succeed at it, even beating Obama.

She's the champion of neo-Reaganomics and American exceptionalism. She knows it. I know it. And you know it.

She's a leading political reactionary, and this happens to make her the leading voice in opposition to liberalism and progressive politics in the U.S. If she wanted to be a minor player, she'd spend more effort in flying below the radar rather than keeping her image polished. But we all know her strengths don't lay in gruntwork behind the scenes. They lay in being in the limelight. Her "blood libel" video is evidence of this. She could have easily made statements to the press or even held interviews. Instead she chose to make a polished video statement.
