190.  Hillary was the originator and guiding force behind the famous Clinton War Room
And Hillary's early work in various political campaigns didn't occur "while" she was married, except for the presidential and senate races. And whatever she spent, she WON a Senate race. Twice. Caroline hasn't even run, or contributed to any campaign except for a few speeches.

And if you want to use the widely reported meme, it has also been "widely reported" That Bill Clinton never would have been elected but for Hillary. She was no ordinary spouse.

Caroline is merely a well educated socialite philanthropist who has decided to get her feet wet at her own convienience.And at the expense of real political effort by others. This reminds me of the well known story that made the rounds in the private school circuit in NY (I also attended one )about Caroline refusing to wait in line for ice cream because she was " Caroline Kennedy" and shouldn't have to wait. For the record it was "widely reported" Jackie was furious with that behavior.

Caroline seems to have grown up quite a bit since them and has had to face, along with many of the rest of us at her age many life alyering experiences and , like many of us is a better person for it, but it doesn't make her "entitled" to be NY Senator.

I would like to see one of the female politicians from the trenches be appointed. They have paid their dues.
