Feb 2015

not because I hate Hillary, but because I don't like her political views. I think she is good on women's issues.

The rest of her views suck.

I will bash her, just not on DU. In case anyone forgets, the TOS on DU, does mention electing more 'liberals'. Hillary does not lean liberal. She is barely center.
