<<< I know Hillary has a reputation for divisiveness, but her Senate career shows a willingness to cooperate and compromise. Is it possible that Hillary's "divisiveness" is just a RW fairy tale? >>>

Precisely.

She knows what the RW will throw at her, but she will compromise from strength.

The fact the RW is so passionate against her is evidence she is on the right track.

The impact of "golden child" Obama's effect on mankind could have long term impact, but the RW is not going to give him a free pass. He will have to be tested. A quick eight years in office is not going to do it.

There is NO need to rush Obama. A quick fix is not going to happen. He has to be tested.

KyrosL;

Is it possible that Hillary's "divisiveness" is just a RW fairy tale?

I completely disagree with this statement. I suggest that Hillary gets along in Congress because she doesn't stand for hard issues and she makes decisions for political reasons.

As a for instance; her vote on going to war was either wrong and naive or done for political aspirations in mind. Is that the kind of leader you want? Not me. I want a leader that shows insightful wisdom in their policies and if they made a mistake, then they darn well better admit it because if you don't you go on to repeat them. Like the vote on Iran.

Listen to what fundamentalist christians say about Clinton and I think you will change your mind that she is not divisive.

Exactly right. But, unfortunately, it's now so much a part of the political culture than it's become a self fulfilling prophecy.
