In reply to the discussion: Five Reasons No Progressive Should Support Hillary Clinton [View all]Bugenhagen
(151 posts)I don't know her views on lots of things. There is plenty of potential for her to have some conservative-ish views on social or foreign policy issues, for example. For all I know she hates midgets.
What I do know is that she's tops on financial issues, which she has made a career studying, and got dragged into politics because of it. Given all the information, she came to good conclusions. I assume that she has been studying other sorts of issues in the same way, and I strongly believe that she'll make really good decisions as president.
Re: Hillary- What democrat (besides us in DU) would have said anything but a supportive word about any other democrat last year, even if she intended to run against her? I imagine that Hillary would have said something similar, if asked. Any statement of the sort made by anyone last year is pretty much meaningless.
