(23,664 posts)She seems desperate to prove to people like McCain and all the big brass in the Pentagon that she is "tough", and she doesn't appear to consider the long term consequences of her actions.
If she gains the nomination, she will have to move to the right in order to get moderate voters and to do so, she will have to paint Obama as an appeaser, and when she does, she will lose all that support from black voters that we hear so much about daily here on DU.
But I don't think its an act. Look at her reaction to the success of the Sanders campaign. Attack, attack, attack. Same way she would respond to an incident.
Sorry, I think she lacks the poise and maturity to be POTUS in such a critical time. She wouldn't be any better than one of the republicans when it comes to foreign policy.
