Ah, just watching her on the tube, and her conduct, I think is sufficient, for me to form my own personal opinion. And yes, it is entirely subjective on my part. Who knew?

Of course, I will be voting for Hillary, but I digress. But to suggest to me that she is an estimable person, leaves me stone cold.

You argued whether she is pleasant or not as person, not if she is worthy of respect.
Even in 2008 almost all the people that met her have said that she is warm and engaging, almost the polar opposite from her public persona. Allow me to trust them more.

She's kind of a watered-down version of Obama, so these issues aren't going anywhere. They're scripted, highly predictable, been there/heard it, blah blah blah whatever. "We will come together! We will embrace everyone! We will be more inclusive!" You know, real original, attention-grabbing stuff.

Yes but....do you think she is qualified to run the country? See, that's the most important thing I would say.

She is competent to the extent she refrains from lying her way out of tight spots, and does not indulge her Nixonion temperament when it comes to enemies lists. But her biggest asset, is her caution, as compared to Trump's most terrifying recklessness.

Yes, some folks in a more personal non threatening setting are very different, than when they feel under threat in the public square. The solution is to be totally at peace with yourself, but so few politicians are.

I mean, I guess, but I think as long as she relatively retains the Obama coalition, it'll be fine.

I think I was correct with this worry.

Will you accept this accolade? I know it's just a bunch of text, but you're all the way in the UK and I'm practically broke.

Hell, for not saying that stock response and being right, you deserve it.
