Makes. Me. Crazy. But the real, depressing, kicker to this is…if she were not married to Bill or some other equally powerful male – would she ever have gotten as far as she has? Makes. Me. Crazy.

She's such a polarizing figure, but I wonder if she'd come across as angry if she had not married him--had pursued a political career earlier, on her own terms.<br/><br/>It is disappointing the way the media feels entitled to look at and judge women's lives by a different measure.<br/><br/>Then again, they did ask Bill about boxers v. briefs. (just joking) I do wonder. She’s such a polarizing figure, but I wonder if she’d come across as angry if she had not married him–had pursued a political career earlier, on her own terms.

Most people who view her negatively seem to refer to things that happened during her husband's term in office. Can we really blame her for the faults of her husband's administration? Is his philandering somehow evidence of her failings? It seems that many people think so.<br/><br/>While I am not so naive as to think that Hillary is perfect - nobody is- I do think that she is getting a raw deal and that she has a lot more going for her than people seem to realize.<br/><br/>I recently posted on this in "Coming Together for Change" at www.betweenusgirls.info. Let me know what you think. Love your thoughts on how we would all be viewing Hillary if we weren’t looking through the Bill lense.

While I am not so naive as to think that Hillary is perfect – nobody is- I do think that she is getting a raw deal and that she has a lot more going for her than people seem to realize.
