Is There a Clinton Vision?

Where's the Clinton vision?
According to at least one report Democrats may have concerns about Hillary Rodham Clinton that have not been resolved by the strategic choices campaign staffers like Mark Penn and Hillary’s husband Bill have made for her by acting as the default nominee waiting to be crowned. From her vision for America that has yet to be disclosed like her First Lady documents to defining clear differences between herself and her chief rivals. The rise of Obama and the thought that winning Iowa was never a slam dunk, the speedy sequence of voting events not far off may leave little time to adjust a lagging campaign to offset recent losses in momentum.

There are also enough reports calling the races on either side of the political divide a toss up. The Iowa caucus has been described as an entirely different arrangement for each party. While it may be a straight forward process for the GOP, Dems have the rather arduous task of conveying their opinions and convincing others to vote in a particular way. At least that is what some descriptions indicate.

Democratic voters unsure about Clinton’s vision
By Paul West | Washington Bureau Chief

“I may be the most famous woman you don’t really know,” the New York senator and former first lady said repeatedly.

Implied in that remark was that she’d somehow be revealing more about herself as a presidential candidate that would cast her in a more favorable light.

But if the polls and the view of one group of Democratic primary voters are any indication, she has more work to do.

Many Democrats still have questions about Clinton, her character and whether she has a vision for the country. She has yet to draw a clear line with her rivals on issues that matter most to voters.

clintonsOne set of voters in the report above are holding to their support of HIllary Rodham Clinton and echoing HRC’s claim that she is the most electable and most experienced. She was a First Lady in the Arkansas state house. She spent eight years as First Lady in the White House. She is in her second term as a Senator. Both First Lady experiences were based on being married to the candidate who won an elections. An analogy heard on the radio today equated Hillary Rodham Clinton’s First Lady experience with Deanna Favre replacing Brett as quarterback of the Green Bay Packers. No explanation should be required to express how ridiculous that idea is.

two Presidents?And her choice of state in which to run for the US Senate is a common entry level practice used by both parties. To get someone elected with no chance of winning on their own, the party provides immense support and places the candidate in a party location where the opposition will concede the election in advance. Even the token candidate supplied by the GOP for her re-election required no expensive campaign. Yet HRC bragged about wasting $29 million dollars on a campaign that did not need it. You are challenged to find any verifiable proof of what Hillary Rodham Clinton has accomplished as a Senator besides being responsible for more earmarks than any other Senator with equal or less time in office.
