155. It is the fact that she supported them and touted them as accomplishments.

May 2015

Not the fact that her husband did it. If sh wants to come out and say how she would change things, I'm all ears. But these are problems that need to be addressed by the next president no matter who they are married to. Credit for the accomplishements of the Clinton Era come with blame for the failures of the Clinton Era.
