That’s an unusual viewpoint. She herself says she’s not a very good politician, certainly nothing like her husband or President Obama, and I’m inclined to agree. A great politician wouldn’t have the sky-high disapproval ratings she has, and wouldn’t be losing 80-90 percent of white voters under 30 to a 74-year-old.

Of course she SAYS she’s a “bad” politician. Any good politician in her shoes would. Imho

‘Aw hell, I can’t lie: never could, even as a child. Wish I could, been useful sometimes, but my face goes red and I start to stutter. It’s kinda embarassing for someone in politics; but people just have to take me as they find me: painfully honest and blunt to a fault’.
