Default Re: Clinton-Obama

I was 5 years old when Bill Clinton took office, so this may just be youthful ignorance, but it seems to me like Hillary's main political accomplishment was to marry Bill. I doubt she would get elected to the senate without the limelight thrust upon her by Bill, one of the most likeable politicians of my admittidly short lifetime.

I guess my question is this, why is everyone so gung-ho over Hillary? Just a longing for Bill, or does she have some skills I don't know about. It seems the primary criticism of Obama is his inexperience, yet Clinton hasn't spent much time there either and seeminly has a free pass. Does being first lady really prepare you to be President?
