I don’t get it. Conservatives are afraid of Hillary Clinton yet so are left-leaning liberals.

I remember my uncle, an elite attorney in D.C., telling me that when he walked down the halls of his government office that people feared him. He was proud of that. If people fear you, isn’t that power? It’s much better than being laughed at.

Recently Christian members of my family forwarded an inspirational “joke” email to me with scenes of serene waterfalls, statements about how beautiful life is and how holding Hillary’s head under the water would complete a perfect picture.  Harsh. And, my left-leaning friends think she’s practically a Bush-Lite.

I’m undecided as a voter but absolutely fascinated by the Hillary hate spin. Most lefties and righties probably don’t know the following about Hill:

• She was president of the Young Republicans in college
• She’s part of a secret Congresional Bible Study called Fellowship
• She described herself in college as a “mind conservative with the heart of a liberal”

I like anyone who’s going to challenge the establishment and bring in new ideas. She seems like someone who could unite both sides. I’m still blown away that she had to forgive infidelity on the most public stage in the world and I guess forgiveness is threatening. Almost makes me want to– hold her head under the water???
