Hillary is good at fighting, but what else is she good at?

[NJmaverick]

Being a skilled fighter, can be useful. However if that's the only tool in her toolbox, she will have some serious problems as President. What other tools does she have in her toolbox? What other skill sets does she offer?

[anonymous171]

1. Lying

[Kittycat]

8. Beat me to it

[Pisces]

2. Creating a negative environment

[Andy823]

3. Well she also

Is pretty good at telling "whoppers"! That's all I can come up with!

[LakeSamish706]

4. One issue with Clinton that is of serious concern is her Secretive mode...

She seems to want to do things like the current Administration, which means keep secrets from the American people.

[anonymous171]

9. She's a nixonian democrat.

Power

5. racking up debt, and not paying her bills

[boobooday]

15. Not sure I even buy the opening premise . . . n/t

[dkf]

16. The ability to feel no shame...

[DJ13]

17. Kneecapping opponents

[TexasObserver]

18. That's just it - she's NOT good at fighting.

Whining, she's good at.

Ignoring reality, that she's good at.

She's not good at lying, but she's relentless at doing so.

She's good at exploiting the racism of old white people and exploiting the sexism of some white women. Without her appeals to racism and sexism, she would not have won a single contest.

[PoliticalAmazon]

19. She's not actually good at fighting. She's a weak fighter, weak candidate...

...which is why she has to use Bush/Rove tactics.

Like Bush Jr, Hillary obviously cannot campaign on her own merits and policies, or even honestly criticize her opponent, but must use lies and other unethical tactics from the Bush/Rove playbook.

The fact that she is weak as a candidate and fighter also explains why she went from zero to nuclear obliteration of a Middle Eastern country as the action she would take if Israel were attacked. She does not have the inner strength and resolve it takes to successfully deal with an issue without using an option that will actually end up devastating America, as well.

In addition, it is highly doubtful that Congress would agree to nuclear attacking another country. So she has placed herself in the position of making an empty threat, a bluff which she cannot back up. This not only weakens her, but weakens us as a country, as well.

Finally, only a complete idiot of a fighter ever tells their opponent what they plan to do. That is one of the worst strategies ever.

But Hillary does not have the strength as a candidate and as a fighter to do anything else. That makes her extremely dangerous in the Oval Office.

[patrice]

23. You're right; her concept of fighting is limited. A strong fighter knows how to play his/her hand

"close to his/her chest". This is ESPECIALLY functional when dealing with the possibility of War, any kind of War, but especially Nuclear War. "Tipping your hand" gives the bad guys the advantage.

[blue sky at night]

20. securing large amounts of cash...

for defense contractors. Hmmmm, who does that remind you of? I have been calling her a "republican" during this whole cycle and not one person has tried to rebuff me. We found a great article in Rolling Stone about her, and well....all senators, who get into this nasty business. Here is the link:

you know when we can make money from PEACE, then we will have peace.

[Double T]

21. The ability to SAVE this countries ass from complete self destruction .

HRC is a brilliant mind that the good ol' boys fear.

[NJmaverick]

26. Fear is in line with fighting. I am looking for something beyond that

[Double T]

29. Isn't ALL politics about fear and fighting?

Certainly appears to be.

[NJmaverick]

30. Doesn't have to be, and that's what Obama is trying to change

[anonymous171]

40. She IS a good ol' boy.

She's not a feminist martyr, although she pretends to be one on TV

[DesertFlower]

22. pandering.

i bet her southern accent comes back when she campaigns in north carolina.

[PoliticalAmazon]

24. Especially pandering to bigots. n/t

[PoliticalAmazon]

25. Playing the victim. n/t

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

31. She's not good at fighting. She's losing. n/t

[Fredda Weinberg]

32. Matrons have unparalleled organizing skills. We put modern

"activists" to shame.

[graycem]

33. hmm

Losing her fights. She's kinda' good at reinventing herself I guess. :)

[Independent-Voter]

34. She's not even good at fighting. Face it, without the Clinton name, she'd be Harriet Myers

if that. She's accomplished ZERO as a senator, and is getting her ass handed to her by a guy in his first term with no name recognition or cash whatsoever at the start of the campaign.

[Cleita]

36. Look at her Senate record. That should give you an answer. n/t

[Tribetime]

37. bowling, speaking with a southern drawl, complimenting others

I give up what is it?

[stillcool]

38. She's good at crying...

she's not good at lying, because she gets caught.

[AZBlue]

39. Lying, thinking only of herself, stabbing others in the back, cheating and acting childish.

[GoesTo11]

41. Might make a good trial lawyer

The fighting, the lying, the drama, the gotcha. But I don't really know since my only experience in this area is watching L.A. Law.

[C_U_L8R]

42. She says she's a good fighter

but she's lost just about every battle.

[killbotfactory]

43. Supporting illegal, stupid, and counterproductive war?

oh wait, I guess that's considered fighting.
