In reply to the discussion: the LIKABILITY of Hillary Clinton (considering some of the crap we are hearing these days) [View all]lindysalsagal
(20,682 posts)28. My critique is that she's too moderate! The article says the opposite.
Her churchiness and hawkishness worried me, yet she's labelled a socialist? That's absurd. But the hate is real and so is the ensuing corruption of everything.
No, I don't share the author's fondness, but I voted for her and would put her in the Whitehouse ahead of all of them save Bernie.
It would have been a great presidency, but she would have spent it in defence mode 24/7. The hatred would have been even worse than it was for Obama, and that's saying something. I wanted her seating the supremes, more than anything else. Not sure she would have gotten healthcare fixed: I suspect she was in big pharma's pocket.
