day, as well, did a little community work, stuff like that. Also, I burned my bra in the 60s, more or less. OK, then.

So you believe she should just leave him...as a lesson to other women? Good lord. I didn't notice any bruises or broken limbs. I think, as an attorney, she would have been able to support herself, and was not personally insecure, or lacking information. I was noting the Right Wing/Left Wing/Political Detractors/busybodies. Frankly, you just kinda made that point. Women go to counselors when they need help. And since the 60s, we've made a lot of progress. We have choices...personal choices.

What I know is what I saw. I observed. And yes, she was classy. That's "glorifying"? She held her head high. I also didn't hear her asking for or giving advice, although she sure got one heck of a lot. I wouldn't begin to tell her what to do with her marriage. Maybe she was cheating on him...there was talk. Most of us didn't think it was our business and it was theirs to work out.

I'm sure you found out from your studies that every marriage is different and very personal.

As to the slick "the sizzle" comment about Elizabeth ... that was in the OP. I agreed...she does have it ... she's also classy, has a way with a camera, comes off incredibly well. I love her. And the point was ... again ... It Is True, Hillary doesn't have "the sizzle", but she has other things.
