Where's the borderline between a politician being overly opportunistic and pandering? Maybe Hillary has been mentioning all along that her Father taught her to hunt and now the media is just deeming it worthy of revelation. Certainly possible. I do remember Hillary told a reporter that the question of when she last hunted was not relevant. That was a red flag to me. Like I said, it is the last minute coloration of the canvas that is annoying. NAFTA was the same way. It would have been cleaner to deal with it upfront at the start of the campaign and she would have (IM!HO) had a better chance at defining and controlling the narrative. But that's always been one of my issues with Hillary from the start. Truthiness. Does she really believe it, or is she just telling me what I want to hear?
It's a judgement call, as always, but I would prefer to hear, "I respect you instead of I'm just like you".
None of these guys are much like us anymore. They're living in a separate reality.
