Where Would Ms. Clinton Be Without Bill??
Advertisements [?]
I was commenting to someone last night. Do you think that Hillary would be in the position she's in, if it were not for Bill? Would she be in this position if she had left and divorced Bill several years ago?

Further...without Bill, would she even be Senator Clinton?

To me, she represents this "entitlement." Like she's somehow now "Entitled" to lead our country. Because she was married to Bill, and stood by her man, she suddenly Deserves this.

I don't want to hear about this and that. What she's done, and how much she cares for Democrats. That's BS. She'd be NOTHING without being married to a former President, who had high approval ratings for the most part.

Aside from perhaps Kucinich and Edwards, I'd say most of the candidates want the title for THEMSELVES. Not for the good of the country. I think one of the reasons Gore is so favored, is that he doesn't appear to WANT the position. He's humble and somewhat self depricating.

With all campaigning and money raising going on, you almost forget that candidates like Clinton & Obama actually have jobs they should be doing. Maybe that would be better for the country, than exercising their ego's 24/7 on the campaign trail in Iowa & New Hampshire.
