    Hillary's Experience

    As I recall, it was Hillary Clinton's experience as first lady that is largely responsible for her qualification to run for US Senator in New York and, later, for President.

    And I believe it was the influence she exerted on Bill in health care and other matters that provided her with that experience.

    So does that somehow diminish Bill?

    Again, the left is protesting too much about Sarah Palin and that itself tells us more than what they actually say (we are scared!).
