At first I was going to write one huge and brilliant great American novel of a diary about why I was supporting Clinton for President. But then that would be it..... what would I write about in a few days and for days to come? I finally joined up here for the express purpose of supporting this campaign and I don't really have the energy to write one big old boffo diary now anyway so I figure I will be a nudge and write a lot of small diaries over the next year and a half until I have worn down the resistance all who linger here and make Hillary Clinton the first female President of the USA, all but single handedly.
Follow me over the smoke..... I saw someone refer to that squiggly as the smoke, thought it was clever. I will tell you one of the more minor reasons I am supporting Clinton for President.
I just started a twitter account and I think I follow four or five people. One of those people is Hillary Clinton. Today she said this on twitter "
I agree with Bernie. Focus must be on helping America's middle class. GOP would hold them back. I welcome him to the race. –H
"
The woman is a class act. She is gracious and genuine. I know some people don't get that but it's true. It seems like Bernie is the same kind of person and so I am actually looking forward to this primary.
A few days ago she complimented Rand Paul, he came back with a dig and some sarcastic remark. The day she announced Jeb made some rude remarks about her. She didn't respond. She has won over weird diverse people in the past, people I would growl at if I met them, like Trent Lott. They say they didn't expect to like her or want to work with her but in the end they did..........(I was looking for quotes, but could not find them, sorry. Those quotes are not available anymore, at least not where I was looking.)
She is a genuine, hard working, midwestern methodist with class, a real broad, and a whole lot of other good qualities I will be talking about in the future.
