1. God dang, he's good. I don't always love his policy positions, but he is on hell of a personable

campaigner.

[Armstead]

3. I like that little chuckle he gets when like he's sharing a private joke with himself

[2banon]

8. me too, love his chuckle and I love the Annie Oakley, Duck Pond metaphor

[senz]

2. lol, that's one of my favorites.

Obama can be so cute. And he never, ever got dirty, even when she did. He could keep it light.

4. Will the real Hillary please stand up ... while the wind isn't blowing.

[Armstead]

5. She needs the wind to pivot

But it can't be a constant wind...She needs wind that keeps changing direction

6. Out on the duck blind with a six shooter...

[Armstead]

7. Yeah neither candidate is as fun to watch as he is

Throughout the campaign she discussed her relationship with guns growing up and how guns were a part of American culture, learning how to shoot, and how hunting and shooting were a way of life in America. In a 2008 debate on the eve of the Philadelphia primary Clinton was asked about the DC handgun ban. She invoked local and state law in opposition of federal legislation “We have one set of rules in NYC and a totally different set of rules in the rest of the state. What might work in NYC is certainly not going to work in Montana. So, for the federal government to be having any kind of blanket rules that they’re going to try to impose, I think doesn’t make sense.”

To summarize her thoughts on the issue, Secretary Clinton stated "I respect the 2nd Amendment. I respect the rights of lawful gun owners to own guns, to use their guns. But I also believe that most lawful gun owners whom I have spoken with for many years across our country also want to be sure that we keep those guns out of the wrong hands. And as president, I will work to try to bridge this divide, which I think has been polarizing and, frankly, doesn’t reflect the common sense of the American people.” quote 2 & 3

11. I had to watch it again... it's soooo good!

This President - despite his support of TPP - he's been a good President.

12. Obama choose Clinton as SoS

[Armstead]

13. Politics....Buying her off

You honestly think she was the most qualified person available for that post? I'm pretty sure Obama would not have on his short list of he didn't to placate her to keep her from going off the reservation.

There are positions that she would have been qualified for...but they weren't the high profile stepping stone she wanted so probably not enough.

[uponit7771]

14. She's overqualified relative to her male counterparts but its typical for the establishment to

... dismiss the qualifications of the others.

Irony

Clinton is now "the other" and Sanders is winning the same coalition Clinton lost with in 08...

sigh

[Armstead]

16. I must have just had a senior moment -- I don't remember saying a goddamn thing about gender

Obama has several qualified WOMEN on his team who have had long careers in foreign policy for example.

There are also women out there in the foreign policy world who were certainly worthy of consideration. Senators with more than one term legislating and a half term campaigning for president.
