On the upside, you're brilliant, focused, high-achieving and well-travelled. On the downside, you've been the subject of media scrutiny your whole life (much of it unkind and invasive) and you've had to witness the whole country analyze and judge the ups and downs, the ins and outs of your parents' cipher-like marriage. And then every so often, you have to take a leave of absence from your life to go out on the campaign trail as they run for national office.
What does this woman have to do to catch a break?
She is her parents' daughter, and therefore unflappable in public, a political animal. But as she's smiling and greeting crowds and freezing her tush off in Iowa and New Hampshire, don't you bet she's daydreaming about an isolated beach on the North Shore of Kauai?
However this endless campaign turns out, whatever reams of news/gossip must be endured, no matter which dirty little secrets are unveiled, I hope she gets that beach time once it's over. She's earned it.
