Redemption? Could Bill Finally Help Hillary (page 2)


She, like other strong women, is instead given another name. But she has prevailed. She has the experience. And she experienced what it took to run a country before with her husband. We weren’t scared of terrorists, losing our jobs or our homes, outsourcing, or the price of gas. She has actually served on the senate and not just put in a year and then decided she was presidential material.

She has actual plans for health care and long-term plans for alleviating the need on fossil fuels. She’s been there, done that and shown us she can do it on her own and not because someone with an afternoon television show is standing behind her.

And being someone who is vain I must say I’m impressed that out of the candidates left on both sides she is holding up the best. And really that says a lot about how she will be able to handle our country under stress. For her getting into the White House will be the hardest part, not the actual job itself.

Clinton’s questions ended in Canonsburg with Democratic County Chair George Vittech thanking him for coming and shaking his hand. The room had become very warm and Clinton looked as though he was spent for the day but did stay for a few more minutes to get pictures and sign some more autographs. And unlike the younger crowd at W&J, he had come to and talked about the concerns of Washington’s biggest voting group, our senior citizens.

As he left there were still those who couldn’t get in standing outside of the center waiting for there chance to see one of the most popular presidents of our time, holding signs for his wife.

At the end of the day it was my college dream come true. I got my picture taken with Clinton, shook his hand and got an autograph. My sisters and their friends say it may be because I resemble Monica Lewenski, I really don’t care because it was a good day. And hopefully the student at W&J will remember the day as less of a disappointment and more as a day when she got to personally see one of the most charismatic speakers and leaders of our time. And don’t worry he’ll be back to Washington County and Pennsylvania before April 22, they don’t call us the Keystone state for anything.
