She's what?

I'm so over the democratic race for the nomination.  I'm just holding my breath so I don't smell the stink until it's done with.  It's almost like it's a bad dream where your ex just won't make the dramatic exit you're waiting for.  But I happened upon a strangely written article that appeared on my Yahoo! page tonight.  It talks about Clinton as if we might not know who she is.  Lines that end with:
"...Clinton, a New York senator, said in Maysville."  A senator?  What?
"...said Clinton, a former first lady."  You're kidding?

Either it's a hint for her about her status in the race, or they really think we've held our breath too long?
