Elements that caught my attention: 1. Cropping the photo to give the impression that the big word over Hillary's head is "universe," as if she's running for Mistress of the Universe, 2. The crushing banality of a daughter defending her mother, 3. The atrocious green "housecoat" Hillary has on and its contrast with Chelsea's studiously youthful get-up, 4. Hillary's grandiose hail-to-the-people wave in contrast with Chelsea's little-girl ooh-I-see-somebody-I-know-in-the-crowd wave, 5. The subtle similarities and differences between Chelsea's big toothy grin and Warren Beatty's famous smile, 6. The sense that Warren Beatty stands in for and represents all of the Lotharios of this world, including the (Bill) Clinton fool, 7. I wrote "the (Bill) Clinton fool" because the words, as cropped, behind Chelsea's head are "the Clinton fou," and fou = fool, 8. And now I'm getting into weird flights of possibly over-educated fancy, but the Swedish playright August Strindberg wrote an autobiographical novel in French that was titled "Le Plaidoyer d'un fou," which translates to "The Defense of a Fool." Wikipedia says (somewhat ineptly):
As his stormy marriage to Siri von Essen was coming to an end, August Strindberg feared there was a secret conspiracy between the women of Europe, and they were planning to silence him by conducting a campaign to make people believe he was insane. Strindberg therefore decided to hurridly write a book revealing the truths about the marriage.Oh, what fun we would have if Bill Clinton came to believe there was a vast female conspiracy that was planning to silence him by convincing us that he's insane and he had to hurriedly write a book to reveal the truths about his marriage.

The radical "Univers" means "towards one" in the Latin.
The arc of stars form a stylized "C" for Clinton, but also a crescent moon, the symbol of Islam.
Farting stars.
Chelsea looks like an embarrassed daughter, apologizing for the new wine stains in the carpet and trying to escort a drunken wobbling mom from the party, as mom gives a shout-out to the houseplant in the corner that she has mistaken for a dear, dear friend.
That's what I see, anyway.

What's with that black & white photograph of former Gov. Martin O'Malley that makes him look like he's straight out of the late 1960s? He looks like he should be working for NASA's Apollo program, for chrissake.
Seriously: I look at that photo of Hillary and think 'black-out drunk'.
I wonder how many of her missing emails involved trying to form an International Coalition to fight the insidious spiders she sees everywhere.
Time to put back on the sunglasses.
I am Laslo.
Green housecoat?
I thought Hillary was naked, revealing that indeed she is an alien reptilian shapeshifter.
Hillary 100% reptilian hybrid.
"I wonder how many of her missing emails involved trying to form an International Coalition to fight the insidious spiders she sees everywhere."
Of course, her middle-eastern counterparts just assumed that, by 'spiders', she meant 'Jews'. Made sense to them.

If Hillary were to become President I pray that they put a Breathalyzer on the Nuke Button.
She probably wakes up in the morning blowing a 0.2%.

Protecting Hillary from her bad decisions is more than Chelsea and Bill together can do unless Bill can insert a computer chip of himself into old Mrs Clintonson... Hey, Hey Hey. A lonsome Nation turns its eyes towards you... but joltin Bill has left and gone away.
Simon and Garfunkle had nailed Hillary in the lyrics of Mrs Robinson.
Hillary/Smirnoff 2016.

Longtime followers of this blog sort of expect that. Crave it, even.
So the first woman president is sending a bunch of men out to defend her?
put down the crack pipe, althouse, and back away from the drudgereport.
