*HILLARY CLINTON GROUP* Why do so many people (particularly men) hate Hillary?

25. I agree with this post's diagnosis of how people have come to feel about Hillary over the years...

I remember when Bill Clinton first came on the political scene, and the "Parade" Sunday paper magazine ran a short article about her, her career, where she came from, etc... a light, simple, uncritical essay similar to articles written about all Presidential candidate's wives in that magazine. A few weeks later, I was astonished to read in the Parade a note from an equally astonished and disturbed editor, of the venomous letters the magazine had received about the very idea of writing anything slightly flattering to Hillary Clinton. That was the beginning of the "campaign" about her. I think, as Hillary expressed when asked recently, about the general dislike of her, that bits of all that ugly smear over the decades have remained on her reputation, and the young people now voting do not know of this history. It is really sad. But it only makes me admire Hillary's strength and courage to go forward and try to serve this country in spite of it all.
