4. I would not boast about being responsible for the change that's occurred
in the last 35 years. We're in a pretty sorry state right now and whoever caused these changes ought to be in fucking jail. But if Hillary believes she did it and thinks it's something to take pride in and wants that to be her message she'll never get elected.

Course we would probably wind up with somebody even worse......

7. Post Wellesley - the law school/Children's Defense fund/etc - she is one of many
that have chosen public service - it does not make her better than anyone else. But as social service background it sort of matches up to other lawyers who either did section 8 housing law/tenant organizer work, or helped give poor victims of corporations their day in court.

10. Unfortunately she seems to be selling the "35 years" line
Unless Barak and Edwards challenge her on it more effectively ...

... there may come a day when the Thugs do.

And believe me they will.

11. 35 years ago, Hillary was in law school and then worked at a corporate law firm for 5 years
Somehow her experience as a student in law school (1973) and then working at the Rose Law Firm counts as the years she got experience to be President.

:shrug:
