For nearly a quarter-century, Hillary Rodham Clinton has played an outsized role in the nation’s consciousness as an advocate and a political survivor. Her presidential campaign’s favorite way to describe her is as “a fighter.”
But something surprising has emerged in public opinion about the former first lady, senator and secretary of state. Asked to name something tangible that Clinton has actually accomplished, many voters come up blank.
It happened when Bloomberg News posed the question in May to a focus group of 10 Iowa Democrats. They praised Clinton for strength, experience and competence but could not recall a single thing she had done.
In their own polls and focus groups, Republicans have seen the same thing. And they are sensing a vulnerability in Clinton’s record that could compound the difficulties she is already facing with the controversy over her decision as secretary of state to use a private e-mail account and server rather than a government one.

Same voters who elected Obama...TWICE?????
Karen Tumulty was a big Hillary fan ??? Something going on here???
All I see is some guy’s wife who used to be President.
Supposedly we don’t have royal families who think they’re entitled to power, so I can’t see any reason she should be doing anything except getting her divorce finalized.
Too busy stealing for themselves a family fortune on the taxpayers’ dime.
Exactly. No one asked what Obama’s accomplishments were. And his were even thinner than Hillary’s.
That being said, I think a lot of people are counting on the fact that Bill will be there to shore her up. The look at it like Bill’s Third term. I’ve actually heard a few say just that.
The only accomplishment I can think of is her protecting Bill against the true accusations of his sexual misconduct. Then again that could be seen as a detractor.
I think the DNC machine is trying to push her out so they have time enough to find someone else.
My bet is they will pick Bloomberg.
Mr NannyState isn’t as good as full on Marxism but close enough in their minds.
Her only two important accomplishments.
Marrying Bill Clinton.
Getting our ambassador killed.
That would make Hillary look even weaker by having her husband try to rescue her!
State sponsored extortionist for the Clinton Foundation.
There. That's two.
Sniper fire dodger? Bovine and land development speculator?
"She's been Wife, Mother, Governor's wife, First Lady, Senator, Sec of State."
What has she accomplished?
All I see is some guy’s wife who used to be President.
********************************************************************
Monica Lewinsky’s boy friend’s wife.
Short list of accomplishments? How about NO accomplishments? What has she accomplished? Getting elected and spending money?
She was a short term secretary of state with no experience before that.
What a load of crap.
