What? The pundits are saying that

when Hillary Clinton yelled at the college kid who said she isn't trustworthy it was her best answer?

I found it painful to listen to and would have felt condescended to had it been my question. I thought that answer was a disaster. She got better after that, but WTF with the pundits?

Trustworthiness, or rather, her lack of it.

Of course the pundits were going to say that.

every last piece, from beginning to end, has been about that.

CNN, owned by Time/Warner, one of Hillary's biggest donors and supporters.
