Mrs. Clinton comes back

This article in the New York Times talks of how Hilary Clinton is carrying her campaign. Despite what many thought, it is suprising that Hilary is being more of a centrist and conservative than what others thought. The article also talks about Clinton's ability to make peace with some former hostilities, while trying hard to beat Obama. However, with a steady campaign and a slogan "in it, to beat it" it seems as though Clinton will not have trouble beating the republican candidates so much as beating her fellow democrats. She has repetedly talked of her vast experience in politics and also hints that she will not make the mistakes of her husband.

I chose this article because as a mostly Republican student with dissapointments in the Bush administration, I was glad that a candidate, such as Hilary Clinton was running. Her conservative policies such as pro-life and strong education policies are what drew me to her. I always wanted a balance between the Republican and Democratic ideals and felt that Hilary is the closest person to achieve that in this presidential campaign.

Hilary Clinton had experience standing behind her husband during his Presidency years and also being a part of the government. She's also has that spark of "freshness" people are looking into.
