33. I guess the question isn't whether or not you like someone, but can BELIEVE in them...

I've said it before, so here goes again, at least one more time…

I used to want to believe her SO much, beginning with the way she tried to push forward a health care policy under her husband's administration. She held up to assholes in the Senate over shit I'd have gone ballistic over.

After the run up to the last primary, I dropped all notions that she could be believed. For someone as smart and ABLE to lead, she chose the power elite and made terribly strange connections to unfettered capitalism, finally convincing me that she had left us behind.

I can no longer believe in her after her Senate experience and corporate allegiance. It is THAT simple.
