The Sunday edition of the Buffalo News ran a fascinating editorial on how Hillary Clinton has broken her biggest promise to New York.

Back in 2000, when she was the nation's First Lady, Hillary Clinton promised that, if elected Senator of New York, she would bring more than 200,000 jobs to New York State.

Her actual grand total? 34,800-- LOST jobs.

Utica-Rome... down 2.3%. Rochester... down 5.1%. The paper's own hometown of Buffalo... down 2.1%. "Only the Albany area has seen job growth since 2001," according to the editorial. (Source for data: US Bureau of Labor Statistics.)

"Does she regret using that 200,000 jobs figure?

"'No,' she replied, 'because, you know, I think if we had continued the Clinton economic policies, I believe that there would have been a significant, a greater increase in employment.'"
