that I was not comparing her with anyone? Did you understand that it breaks my heart that this brilliant, capable woman has so much trouble explaining admittedly sometimes complex ideas in easily-understood phrases? I don't want her to dumb down; I want her to have advisors who can help her frame her thoughts so that the thoughts, not some garbage about not accepting responsibility, are the message she conveys.

Evidence for what I am saying was easy to find during the campaign; I will mention only her speech in WV about "putting miners out of work."

I feel your pain, believe me. We should sit down with gin & tonic and talk about this. Hillary Clinton may not be the only person whose words get in the way of her message. BTW I'm looking in the mirror, not disparaging a fellow DUer.
