9. I've Gone through many stages with her
I started out not liking her but since the campaign started to about November, I warmed up to her. I kind of saw her as hard to beat and thought at the time that it wouldnt be so bad if she's the nominee. Then in November-December things changed. She used the gender card after the debate in Philly and eventually stated that it would be fun to attack Obama. I thought that was tasteless but that was just the beginning. Then you have Billy Shaheen and Mark Penn and their talk of Cocaine, Bob Kerrey and his incessant talk of Obama and his Muslim heritage. It was hard to separate her actions from her surrogates. Slowly through this campaign I began to see just how calculated she could be. From her tears in NH, to her Shame on you moment, to sniper gate, little by little I was turned off more and more. But the pinnacle for me was the same as it was for you. Her propping up herself and McCain and tearing down Obama with the Life Experience and CIC statements really made me dislike her. I thought those actions were pretty disgusting and soured my feelings for Clinton for good.
