Was Sen. Clinton tied to a mast at the time? Which of the voices was Scylla and which was Charybides? Or is she implying that even if it takes ten years she will return to the White House and slay all the suitors?

There is something amiss
I am being insincere
In fact I don't mean any of this
Still my confession draws you near
To confuse the issue I refer
To familiar heroes from long ago
