You know, I've said it before, and I'll say it again, if Hilary was in literally any other country, she'd probably be the Conservative candidate (her views aren't too far off from the Goldwater Girl she was in 1964), but because the Republican party set the bar that fucking low, she has no choice but to be a Democrat. Though I suppose marrying a Democratic politician helps.
I, of course, know relatively little about US politics, being a Brit, but a quick google of "Goldwater Girl" brings up this:
Quote:Hillary Clinton didn’t last long on that side of the political spectrum, however, reporting that “By the time I was a college junior, I had gone from being a Goldwater Girl to supporting the [1968] anti-war campaign of Eugene McCarthy.”
