OK, so there's not much difference between their careers, she's wedded to an idea she wasn't able to put through 15 years ago and the Republicans have plenty of nasty things to say about both of them. Neither has passed landmark legislation. Sure, her failed idea was a good idea, but she couldn't get it passed then, why would I think she can now?
There's not a hell of a lot of difference, as I've been saying. And I've said I'll support her if she's the nominee. I guess the only question left is why you hate Obama so much.
There's one huge difference between the two of them. One of them is an extremely ingelligent, able man who is selling a boring, old line of bullshit. Like, the basest populist bullshit bromides you can imagine. He knows they're bromides, but he sees how much they rally his supporters, how many votes he can get with those bromides, especially considering he's up against nerdy Clinton, and he keeps on selling it, all the way to the nomination. There's no honesty in that, it's very very unappealling.
