I'm kind of hoping we luck out and she's actually a liar and thus proves that she's one of the greatest political minds in the history of mankind.
I'm astonished how Hillary Clinton has managed to become hated as a public figure for completely opposite reasons. In the early 90's she was the ultimate misfit OUTSIDER - she was the first FLOTUS (with the exception of maybe Eleanor Roosevelt) who wasn't a glorified White House ornament. She was her own woman with her own name, her own career who didn't give a **** about the color of the drapes in the Oval Office. She managed to become a whipping boy for both the the women's libbers from 70's who didn't know their place and the counter culture trouble makers from the 60's
Today she's hated for being the ultimate INSIDER. To the far right she a shady opportunist stuck in a bubble of liberal talking points. To the far left she's at best a centrist in pants suits and at worst another corporate shill democrat who sold her ideals years ago for votes and donations.
LOL - if someone created a fictional character mirroring her arc as a public figure, no one would find it believable.
