In Midst of the Hillary Drought: A Little Rain Falls

For reasons that are mysterious to me, my CNN Hillary News feed consistently feeds stories as much as a year old. Last week, all the stories were about her Africa trip last summer. Today, it served up a very sweet story about last year's CGI, including a link to a video of an interview of Bill Clinton by my new Facebook friend, Anderson Cooper, as well as a link to a video of Bill's tribute to his lovely and accomplished wife.

Since we are in a Hillary drought, and because my post last night was soooo serious and future-oriented, I thought I would post this cute backward glance to provide those in severe Hillary withdrawal with a little succor as well as hope for a repeat performance next month when CGI again rolls into town. To cap it all off, I happen to have on hand an adorable gif by Conanincharge which may or may not play on the main page. If it does not, simply click on it. It will open in a new tab or window and should play just fine. Here's the story.

Clintons share stage, kiss during global initiative event

By Elise Labott

NEW YORK (CNN) -- One of America's pre-eminent political power couples made a rare joint appearance Friday, when Bill and Hillary Clinton took the stage at the former president's Clinton Global Initiative conference.

Bill Clinton says his wife Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is the "best public service our family has ever produced."

"Most of what I know about what I do today, I learned from her and she has become the best public servant our family has produced," he added. "I am very proud of her and honored that she came here."

Hillary Clinton, who received a standing ovation, had equally kind words for her husband.

The Clintons posed for a photo-op with State Department officials and executives from General Mills and other organizations, who pledged at the conference to start a program to help farmers around the world.

And then, for fans of the former first couple, a rare treat. As she walked off the stage, Bill Clinton drew some more cheers when he gave his wife a kiss.
