For people calling Hillary a "weak" candidate...

98. Perhaps I'm Quibbling, But...

I don't know if 'weak' is the right adjective. I think we can all agree that she's anything but weak in nature, and that translates to her campaign. She'll get down in the dirt and trade dirty shots with anyone if that's what's necessary. She's been doing that for a while now.

I think a better word is vulnerable. She's wide open to several different attacks, and the repukes are not going to pull any punches. The more I think about it, the more I wonder if Bernie actually didn't do a disservice to HRC, the party and perhaps the electorate by not digging into those vulnerabilities. At least they'd be out there and vetted, HRC would have gotten some experience dealing with them and they wouldn't be as 'new' or 'shocking' as they will be when they come out in the GE. Don't get me wrong - I think it speaks well of Bernie that he laid off of that crap for him as a human, but in purely political terms I am uneasy about HRC heading into the GE with unexplored vulnerabilities that are going to be exploited.

Not to mention, HRC's typical response of playing the victim/sexism/right-wing conspiracy card isn't going to deter the flying monkeys from the Wizard of Oz that is the repukes from continuing to hammer away at any number of scandals, real or fabricated.
