Soldiering On, but Somber as the Horizon Darkens  —  To her longtime friends, Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton sounds unusually philosophical on the phone these days.  She rarely uses phrases like “when I'm president” anymore.  Somber at times, determined at others, she talks to aides …

Matthew Yglesias:
