It's a complicated subject, one I didn't claim to have a satisfactory answer for. I did say that there has to be a deeper answer; my response clearly stated that it was not intended to be comprehensive. One factor, for sure, is a history of corruption for which the public has not had an opportunity to exonerate them.

There is something else: Although I have never considered Bill arrogant, Hillary positively reeks of it. She needs to develop a softer, humbler persona to go along with her competence if she's going to appeal to voters who have problems with her.

A little more honesty would help, too. Claiming that she didn't know about Bill's Dubai ventures when they have been ongoing since 2002 is very hard to believe; it is but the latest example. Voters are watching her like a hawk, and every misstep counts as they have a cumulative effect on how she is perceived.

For better or worse, she [and Bill, too, since they will be perceived as a team] will be given a lot more scrutiny than other candidates.
