Finally a realistic assessment of Clinton by a democratic reporter!!!

[Guest]

Even though the article highlights the positive aspect of Clinton's career, it definiietly glosses over the negatives which ironically are the cause for her concern and her position:

I (http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2015/aug/17/hillary-clinton-white-house-too-much-baggage)

I would make a bet the DNC and party leaders are and have been at work preparing for what they must do when Clinton finally throws in the towel.

The above article only states what very many democrats are thinking.....and especially the women.

Yes the letter "I" above is the link!

Hillary is in big trouble, and I don't think she knows it yet. Her behavior is being compared to Nixon.

I think that I would give Nixon more credit than that. At least I respected him when he was president. I can't even respect her before she could get to that level.

Wow! from the link:

<snip>Clinton’s chief liability, though, is the baggage she carries of her own. This includes the matter of that private email account she is claimed to have used professionally while secretary of state, and her handling of the murder of the US ambassador in Libya. <snip>

That definitely sums it up in a nutshell. No pun intended :icon_wink:

From Eugene Robinson who I have never heard even hint at a problem with a Democrat, and who always is on the defense of anything Democrat....

"So I wish Hillary Clinton would be respectful enough to say, “I’m sorry. I was wrong.” I wish she wouldn’t insult our intelligence by claiming she only did what other secretaries of state had done. None of her predecessors, after all, went to the trouble and expense of a private e-mail server.

I wish she would explain why, after turning over to the State Department the e-mails she deemed work-related, she had the server professionally wiped clean. The explanation that she didn’t want people prying into private matters such as “planning for [daughter] Chelsea’s wedding . . . as well as yoga routines, family vacations, the other things you typically find in inboxes” is unconvincing. Does she have some secret yoga move she doesn’t want the world to know about?"
