The subject has come up time and again and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton continues to push it aside as much as possible. That subject is her making a run for president in 2016. If Clinton were to make a run, one of her Republican opponents believes that she would obliterate the Republican party in the polls.
Newt Gingrich was on NBC’s “Meet The Press” recently and he said the following: “The Republican party is incapable of competing at that level. First of all, she’s very formidable as a person,” he said. “She’s a very competent person. She’s married to the most popular Democrat in the country; they both think [it] would be good for her to be president. It makes it virtually impossible to stop her for the nomination.”

Gingrich went on to say that Hillary would not only have the support of her husband Bill but also President Barack Obama, who at that time will still be “relatively popular president. Trying to win that will be truly the Super Bowl.”
A recent poll from the Washington Post discovered that 57 percent of people would offer support for Hillary as a presidential candidate in 2016, which mirrors Gingrich’s thoughts on the subject.
As of last April, Hillary told Wolf Blitzer of CNN the following: “Look, I’m flattered. I am honored. That is not in the future for me.”

Law firms of all sizes are being much more selective about who makes equity partner. Gone are the days where doing good work and putting in your time is enough to get you to a profit sharing level. Today, equity partners almost always have to prove that they can contribute their share to the firm. So what does this mean for associates and how can a two-tiered partnership track be beneficial? With a two-tiered partnership structure, associates get more time to prove themselves and also more time to determine whether partnership is the right goal for them. Two-tier partnerships (non-equity and equity) exist so the firm can train and develop associates into equity partners. The non-equity track to partner at most firms is on average, 6 years long. [...]

Gingrich’s remarks re Clinton are a total red herring. David Geffen saw Clinton as “divisive” and unelectable in 2008 and she remains so and will remain so. Listen to Geffen, not a loud-mouthed liar like Gingrich. He hopes Clinton will win the nomination so the the GOP can walk into the presidency in 2016.
