So sad that you are impressed with them. My respect for Hillary rose somewhat because of how she handled a bunch of low life, tea party, ultra right wing idiots who have spent over $21 million tax payer dollars for political gain purposes. If it's not illegal, it sure should be. How many times do you ask the same question expecting a different response? Plus, it was obvious that the 11 hour grilling was nothing short of an attempt to wear her down and get her either blow up or say something that would aid their goal of keeping her poll numbers down and hopefully keep her from getting elected. This hearing had nothing to do with Benghazi and everything to do with politics. Hillary's testimony yesterday had nothing to do with "slickness." It had everything to do with knowledge, preparation, temperment, and the indisputable fact that her adversaries on the committee, and they were adversaries, were for the most part total goofuses whose political motivations were apparent to all but the dumbest observer. It's rare when you and I agree especially when it comes to Hillary but I think hell just froze over. Well, she id fighting for her political life. She can't just say "what difference does it make" and expect to get away with it. I am not converting to a supporter of Hillary but credit is due when credit is due. She handled a bunch of hungry political jackals with patience and professionalism. That's what I was impressed with. I am sure much of it comes from her lawyer training and background but it's also a demonstration of the temperament required to be POTUS. The slick lawyer in her surfaces. Maybe. But *should* Trump get the GOP nomination she will make mincemeat of him in presidential debates. Maybe not. Trump is a good talker, and fairly quick minded. He may bring up some very embarrassing items. And her slickness may not play well. Hillary is going to be a great president, and a powerful one. It'll be fun to see who chokes on that. :) I'll be the first. |

Oh, well, we already have Christian religious fundamentalists in this country, including some politicians, who express their hatred for those who believe differently in terms that are beginning to sound like the Islamists. As just one example, read through some of the crap Mike Huckabee has said in the past couple of years, and, of course, we have have incidents of Christian religious fundamentalists taking violent actions against those who believe differently. It's just a matter of time here. |

I think the GOPers, in a way, provided Mrs. Clinton with the opportunity of the first real presidential debate. She is formidable in an adversarial venue in ways that her GOPer competitors are not. |
