She has damaged her own reputation among many, many Democrats.

I would not be able to vote for her if I lived in Florida. She is overly emotional and just not very smart. Not wise. Not even emotionally balanced.

What a pity that she has been in charge of the DNC at this crucial moment in our history when we face the rise of fascism and extremism in the Republican ranks.
