Question for the Hillary supporters: Would an HRC administration be just like WJC's administration
somewhat similar, or totally different?

How can you tell what the similarities or differences would be? And how does her role in the Clinton White House predict what an HRC administration would be like? :shrug:

4. It would be far better. Hillary is much more of a true liberal than Bill.
Edited on Thu Mar-20-08 03:00 PM by jlake
She lacks his charisma, but her intelligence and work ethic are miles ahead of Bill's.
Hillary will fight for us - Bill compromised too much.
Hillary is FIERCE. And that's why I love her. She will fight tooth and nail for us.

She won't allow the WH to constantly be rocked by scandals, and will not allow the issues that do arise to result in gridlock.
She will restore the US reputation around the world, and fix our economy.

Hillary will be able to translate her strong policies and popularity into house and senate gains - not losses.
Environment/Energy, Civil/GLBT rights, Health care/social services accomplishments will all be far better than they were under Bill.

Hillary is a workhorse. She won't fritter her time in the WH away with cigars and all that Monica jazz.
If Bill is ensnared in more womanizing, she will be likely to cut him loose in large measure.

Her experience as First Lady prepares her to know how Washington and the world work. She will use her connections and knowledge to advance her aggressive, liberal agenda.
However little her hands on role was, it was greater than anyone else running for president.

Hillary will be a remarkable president -- one of our greatest.
I honestly believe that she will bring the change that Obama promises.
Hillary knows that the way to advance real change is not by announcing it, but by working it through under the radar.

Yes She Can. Yes We Will. Hill Yeah!

6. "Hillary is much more of a true liberal than Bill"
I often think you are a bit too free with the hyperbole, but I think this is right on target!

8. I think it would be quite a bit different than WJC's.
This is a bit simplistic, but she's a stubborn, wonky, problem solver.

He loves politics.
She loves getting things accomplished.

9. Exactly right.
Bill wanted to be liked - Hillary wants to get it right.

17. What are those assumptions?
The questions you posed can really only be answered using one's own assumptions .... and that's what seperates Hillary supporters from "the others".

15. No, much different. She'll have an African American Vice-President.
Instead of a robot.
