Poll question: Is Hillary an opportunist?
Regardless of if you support her or not, do you view her as an opportunist?

1. Are all successful presidential candidates opportunists? YES.
Go back to complaining that she's 'ambitious' or 'aggressive'.

3. What a silly, silly poll.
All politicians are opportunists- including Gore and Kucinich.

5. Politicians? Opportunists? Perish the thought.

12. Do you mean because she used her husband's career
as a box from which to launch her own? Yes!

But in DEFENSE of Sen. Clinton -- so have many, many other politicians who've followed in their father's (Gore), brother's (RFK), cousin's (Kennedy and Roosevelt), uncle's, grandfather's and husband's (Elizabeth Dole) footsteps to the political arena.
