Regardless of one's concerns about which candidate best represents your values, let's give credit to Hillary's massive political strength. She has endured a decades long political life--most of which has found her when she wasn't running for anything. She has fought off, defeated, and survived a constant stream of petty unwarranted and exaggerated controversies imposed on her family. The political "Right" has been so terrified of her ever since she demonstrated that she was a First-Lady capable of heading task forces proposing her own legislation. From politicians to radio talk-show-hosts, the Right has been preparing for a Hillary Clinton candidacy since 1992, regardless of what she wanted for herself. They have thrown everything they could think of to tarnish her name, regardless of how shamefully fabricated the claims have been. But with each challenge she met it head-on and marched forward. If anything, the Candidate Hillary Clinton has emerged thanks to the far-right. The Hillary of 2016 is a radical new, B.S. resistant strain of politician, impervious to October surprises because there are no dark secrets of her past left to explore. She is the only candidate in history to have undergone a 24 year vetting process. As a Presidential Candidate she has the unfair advantage of being over-qualified for the job, having participated in two White House administrations beforehand, she brings career insight no candidate has had since John Quincy Adams. I urge the pundits of the coming political season to at least pay the respect that she has earned and admit what you're questioning if not her qualifications.
