Once she was inevitable

By Libby

Shaun Mullen has a good post today on the apparent implosion of Hillary Clinton's campaign. It should be read in full but he brings up a point that's been lost in the recent acrimony around the internets and is worth repeating.

...I believe Clinton to be a decent person who did a lousy job of doing her homework.

Hillary Clinton is an amazing woman who probably would have been a good president. I'm not so sure the problem is she didn't do her homework. I believe she's worked hard on the trail. I think it's more that she got her assignments from the wrong teachers. If she had relied less on out of touch consultants and trusted her own gut instinct instead, I doubt we would have been having this conversation today.
