While Clinton won 2 senatorial elections, she didn’t serve 2 terms, as she served only 8 years as senator, being appointed Sec of State in 2009.
That’s worth almost 2.5 Palin Units.
Meryl Streep paid tribute to Hillary’s qualities a year ago. Worth watching by any open-minded person doubting that Hillary is inspirational.
Bringing back the zombie thread from so long ago that I casually referred to Jeb Bush as the smart one, prompting Jonathan Chance to refer to him as “top tier”.

The point is, just like nobody raised an eyebrow at that then, none of us thought to mention former mayor Bernie Sanders, who’s now been a Senator for nine years after serving in the House of Representatives for sixteen years; and none of us thought to mention John Kasich, who spent eighteen years in Congress and is currently in his sixth year as Governor; who’d have thunk they’d be out winning delegates?
Her resume is quite good but hardly the best ever. Sorry, Mr. Reiner, but you sound like a meathead with that one.
You know you posted in this thread before it got resurrected, right? 
At that, Bob Dole probably should’ve gotten an explicit rundown the first time around: the military officer turned county attorney spent eight years in Congress before spending decades as a Senator before running for President in '96.
Oh yeah but I missed the meathead joke then.
Heh.
So long as this is back up and running, shouldn’t Kerry and McCain’s candidacies have gotten discussed? One was a guy named John who served as a military officer before getting elected to the Senate in the '80s, before getting re-elected in the '90s, before getting *re-*re-elected in the '90s, before getting re-re-*re-*elected in the '00s, before eventually running for President, and – well, so was the other guy.
One was in the House of Representatives while the other was Lieutenant Governor, but that’s hardly the point.
It’s strange because I can remember way back when Sanders was the Mayor of Burlington, Vermont. It certainly never would have occurred to me back then that he would someday be a leading Presidential candidate.
But if you’d said back then that a Jew and a woman would be neck-and-neck in the race to follow a black commander-in-chief – all of whom agree that our openly gay soldiers of course have the right to get married – I would’ve replied, sure, but which one polls better against the GOP’s leading Latino candidates for president?
(“Ronald REAGAN? The ACTOR? Ha! Then who’s vice-president, Jerry LEWIS?”)
I think that it’s only fair to leave off the 'whom she was married to" aspect of your post. By that qualification, Barbara Bush is 40% as qualified as Hillary, not to mention being a mother to a President…
Strange utterances by Rob Reiner are nothing new.
