13. taking off my obama hat for a moment
you make a very good point. The RW would hate his policies. But then again, the Democrats hated Reagan's policies too, and he was very effective in what he was able to accomplish because he was a really good communicator and went over the heads of Congress and spoke to the people.

I think Obama can do that too.

Yes, Hillary has been there and knows how to fight them, but I don't think she can just ignore them. To ignore accusations and attacks is to, by default, acknowledge their validity. On top of that, her husband and his role in the White House would be a constatnt source of scrutiny, even if he had no official capacity.
