    A fair question but...

    If you put a typical Clinton supporter on the spot and asked about Clinton's legislative accomplishments I think you'd get a similar response. Despite the framing of this campaign as one of experience vs. rhetoric I would say that both candidates have pretty thin resumes when it comes to legislative leadership. There's only so much you can call your own having served less than 1 or 2 terms in the Senate.
