and I am very happy with President Obama's policies.

She may be more left on women's issues, but more right on military.

hard choices are to be made.

If President Obama feels that hellfiring terrorists is the correct position, I trust our military members to try to save civilians and minimize losses.

This is similar to how I feel.

she's not even left of the traditional center. In a saner political era, she'd be run out of the Democratic party.

Very similar to corporate Obama we actually got as president except slightly to the right on foreign policy.

Or maybe it's my impression that she's completely okay with it, not just too accepting of realpolitik, which is how I see Obama.
