Hillary is hardly center right, that's not accurate or fair. She gets enough lies told about her from the GOP/Tea party without Dems piling on the strongest chance we've ever had for a woman president.

The party out of power gets a boost when the president of the other party has a 2 term run such as Bush/Cheney,Bill Clinton, JFK-LBJ, Eisenhour. One time that wasn't true was when we ran Massachussetts liberal and not quite ready for primetime Dukakis who blew a huge lead
