The Washington Post’s Karen Tumulty commented on the remarkable lack of tangible accomplishments for Hillary as U.S. Senator and as the Secretary of State this morning on MSNBC.
“Hillary Clinton, assuming she gets the nomination as we do, is likely to be running against a governor or a senator or someone who can point to a lot of very tangible accomplishments in their career, and Hillary Clinton, from her time in the senate, there really were no landmark pieces of legislation with her name on them,” she said.
“As secretary of state, she was largely involved in strengthening relationships with people around the world, but again, there will be not a singular accomplishment like, say, this Iranian arms deal was for John Kerry. When she tried to reform the health system, she failed. When she ran for president, she failed. So, again, the extraordinary part of it is that a woman who has been part of all our lives for this long still feels she has to introduce herself.”
