NicoleC, Hillary was and is reviled because she was and is a blatant liar with about as much respect and compassion for anyone who cannot further her agenda as I have for cockroaches. The same can be said for a lot of politicians but she set herself up for it. Her true colors came out with her "we are the President" statement.
Nearly all First Ladies take a certain amount of flak but the Clinton "Co-Presidency" guaranteed it.
If she had come up with a viable idea for universal health care, it would have stood a good chance of passage no matter who had suggested it. But as it stood, even the Democrats rejected it. As I understand it, the Dems along could no have passed it. Since the Reps were against it, all the Dems could have voted for it no matter how they really felt and have presented a united party front. The Reps could have been blamed for the loss.
Why didn't they do that? Why did so many Democrats vote against Hillary's Health Care Bill?
