Hillary is an intelligent woman with considerable experience, but with a record of piss-poor political choices. And yeah, cosying up to Kissinger and Cheney were among the worst of those. Her botched health-care reform efforts when Bill was president also showed her to be a formulator of overly complex policies, and an inept negotiator who’s servile to big corporations.

Add to that her arrogant tone, sense of entitlement and general unlikeability (though it’s reported that she’s not like that in small groups) and you have a person who should never have been a candidate for high office.
