Superdelegates' Clout CURBED? Democrats Propose Less Influence For VIP Delegates

Sunday, July 11, 2010


I don't know why you think she would be given more respect as president than as a candidate for president, as the wife of a president, or as a senator. Contrary to what was reported in mainstream media during the primaries, Hillary wasn't liked in the senate by her colleagues. She's likable enough when she's on even-footing, when there's nothing at stake, when there's no power challenge, but that's not Washington or how anyone comes to know her.



Likability, though, isn't really the issue.



Effectiveness is the issue, & she's not.



I think you're deceiving yourself. but that's what the passage of time allows.



Hillary ran a terrible campaign, and campaigns are pretty good indicators of what kind of chief executive a candidate would be. Refresh your memory with this - http://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2008/09/the-front-runner-8217-s-fall/6944/



During the 2008 campaign, the media & Republicans went silent on Bill Clinton's business deals after leaving the WhiteHouse. He made $100 million, a good amount of it as a result of some of his decisions when he was in the White House, & partnered with some sketchy characters. Ron Burkell & Yucaipa, for example. The only reason we didn't hear much about it during the campaign is because Hillary didn't get the nomination. We might not have heard about it during the general election campaign, but you can bet that we would've heard about it 24/7 had Hillary won the general election.
