(15,512 posts)24. She has a lot of enemies and I hate to say but . . .
I'm looking forward to a righteous smackdown or two. Petraeus would be a good example of what I mean. Sorry but I think we'll see a different Hillary when she's in office if she ever gets there and Senator Sanders is just the beginning of the shitstorm that will try to stop her.
As for issues I frankly don't see a lot of daylight there apart from style which is obviously important to the campaign but I never thought she was muich of a campaigner and don't expect her to changer her stripes. But Hillary in the Oval Office will be a thing of beauty, you just watch.

Why did Dean not win on the issues? Why has Kucinich never won the issues?

That's a minor way to measure IMO. The persons stand on issues and consistency on them is paramount

The last I heard, he had 175,000 people wanting to volunteer (probably higher now).

Definitely. I have a better feeling about his campaign than I did Howard Dean's.
