		<description>Umm. failure as a political leader?  I will remind you that she as a very successful Senator. I will also remind you that she actually got more votes than Barack Obama in the primary. It was a very close election.  One historic campaign falling just sort of another historic campaign does not qualify her as a massive failure as a political leader.

I would also like to point out that the suggestion that she alone is responsible for the healthcare  failure in 1993 is rather unfair.  Quite a few people other than her bear responsibility for that, including the people of this country who didn&#039;t really support the idea in the first place.  I&#039;m not even sure why they attempted to do something that so few people in middle class America supported at the time. As I recall, it wasn&#039;t very hard for insurance companies to scare the public about the plan because they were already so suspicious in the first place.
Some smart person also pointed out that it is really very silly to think her husband&#039;s past work with foreign countries will lead to favoritism since foreign policy decisions are made by a team led by the President, not Hillary Clinton herself. NOT that there is any legitimate reason to doubt her integrity or to believe that Bill Clinton isn&#039;t creative enough or connected enough to find money somewhere else under any circumstances.  In fact, that is the piece of this people miss the most. The Clintons don&#039;t have to take bribes.  People WANT to give them money, want the prestige just of being in their company.  That is why Bill Clinton has raised so much money.</description>
