Clinton Reaffirms Political Retirement

And scolds women for saying they can’t have it all.

Time to throw away those Hillary for President bumper stickers once and for all. The Secretary of State says despite endless speculation to the contrary, she’ll be moving out of the political sphere after Obama’s first term ends. In the interview with Marie Claire released Thursday, Clinton also addressed a recent Atlantic magazine article by a former State Department staffer Anne-Marie Slaughter on women “having it all.” Clinton offered her opposing view: “I can't stand whining. I can't stand the kind of paralysis that some people fall into because they're not happy with the choices they made." Later in the day, Marie Claire released a statement claiming Clinton's specific comments about 'whining' were not in direct reference to Slaughter.
