#1 Right. She willingly gives up $200K/year + huge political power + fawning over like royalty to go back tending bar to drunks.

#2 I believe she keeps that income for life, including her Cadillac health care plan. All paid for by the voters. The live ones, of course. Not the dead ones.

Either way, if something seems too good to be true . . . .

#7 IMO Boom-Boom likes the attention and the money too much to do that. Besides she just got another term. I'll take hope with a little salt, however.
