Every single one of them tried to be the one to make her snap and lose her cool. She didnt even sweat!

(5,402 posts)That joke of a panel was fascinating and the stupidity of their questions and the blatant politicizing of this tragedy made Clinton look good. Her attitude was calm cool and collected and the parenthetical ending of "you idiot" was silent in all of her answers.
It's as if the GOP wants her to win the primaries.

(22,911 posts)She's the best in the business and she would make a very good President by the standards of the last 40 years. We could do far far worse, but now is not the time for business as usual. We need the political revolution that Bernie is working for, hence I back him. But I still like Hillary. She made Democrats proud yesterday.

(5,252 posts)I genuinely liked her. I expect her to return to her disingenuous self soon.

(22,911 posts)I'm just not supporting her. She's has spent years positioning herself to play the odds while horse trading with various power centers to remain viable and to gain the support needed to advance in our political system. And I think she honestly wants to advance in order to accomplish some good things. I think the operative philosophy is "the only thing worse than settling for half a loaf is getting shut out and getting no bread at all". She excels at the political game as it has been played for decades. I think her motivations are good, I think she cares about the middle class, working class and poor. She would do some good things as President. She has been lodged within a political/class bubble however that distorts her perception of the world most of us live in. And she is too accustomed to working within the system as it currently exists to fundamentally challenge it.
