Just Because Hillary says she is the Most Vetted Candidate Ever, DOESNT mean There is nothing There. |

In fact, as she has admitted, there is a ton of shit there. She admits to having a lot of baggage. But her point and her supporters point is that everybody knows all of her baggage. What is naive is to think that the GOP wont use her baggage anyway. They will go full out on her and Bill. They will bring up all the scandals, maybe even run Monica's face on the TV and ask us if we want to go through all this again. So if you think Hillary is going to have it easy because we know all about the Clinton scandals already, then you are sorely mistaken. Plus I'm sure there are a few scandals we havent heard of yet.

1. she thinks she can win, but she can't.... |
|
...her negatives are too high and getting higher.
My husband actually said last night he didn't know if he could vote for her and he's the one keeping me focused more on the party and not on the individual candidates.
Now, we BOTH just want Obama.

3. Many won't give him that credit |

Some Clinton supporters even say he started it. With a straight face.

4. Vetting doesn't matter: the other side will make shit up. |
|
Recall the last few elections...
I think her 60% negative rating would sink her like a stone against anybody in the GE. When people don't like you they want to hear made-up crap about you, and they don't even care if its true or not.

7. She had the kitchen sink thrown at her for a long time |
|
and now can do nothing but respond in kind.
Someone speculated that she never processed her husband's betrayal and her campaign was based on avenging that.
Who knows?
But her behavior has been Rovian and reprehensible.
