In reply to the discussion: HRC's "baggage" spurs re-think of Democratic nominee [View all]BlueCaliDem
(15,438 posts)And solid reasons why Hillary Clinton is the Democratic Party front-runner. After the last Benghazi hearing, she just knocked it out of the park for me.
She's a formidable opponent and can stand toe-to-toe with anyone - and win. She convinced me that she can get things done for the good of the country.
Six Republican attorneys-turned-politicans did their best, wielding all their years of experience as litigators to have her slip up. She faced them alone, she stood her ground, and she even corrected them. She came out looking stronger than any of them. She showed, during those long hours just how tough she is - and how presidential. She showed a remarkable, almost photographic memory, and she showed me that she's the one to succeed President Obama and will probably get more things done even with a Teabagger House.
So let them do their best. Let them hurl all kinds of nit-picked "baggage" at her. It won't stop her from reaching the White House, giving us another eight years that a Democrat leads this country.
