The other side would be even more hawkish. At least Hillary supports some of what liberals want. She may not be the whole package, but you need to realize that the whole package for the left will never be elected. So you can cut off your nose to spite your face, or you can vote for Hillary. I will vote for whatever candidate the dems put up, since any dem is going to be better than anything the right will throw at us. And the sooner dems realize that, the better. There's a lot of cloud castle building on the left, and I'm very tired of it.

She'll get my vote in the general election, cuz I always vote for the Dem in the first term. If she gets my vote in a second term, she will be the first. I'll vote for Biden or write in Sanders or Warren in the next primary, cuz, as you point out, she was a Goldwater Girl who has never seen a war she won't vote for.

I don't see Hillary or any other president starting any new dumbass foreign wars. I think she's got the best shot to be the next president of all the (D) bench, which is so very important, if only for the Supreme Court justices the next president is likely to appoint.

The (D) bench seems to know she's the anointed one, as I'm unaware of anyone else even floating the possibility of a presidential run while she's a potential candidate.

In addition, I can see her strengthening and improving Obamacare. I think she'll make a fine president.
