Clinton's Problem, In a Nutshell

NYT:

“Hillary says she’ll change things, but then voters see Bill and hear them talk about the 1990s, and it’s clear that the Clintons are not offering change but rather Clinton Part 2,” said one veteran adviser to both Clintons. “That won’t win.”

Actually, I think the problem is even bigger than that and always has been. Her last name is Clinton. I don't care what she says or how she says it - there just isn't any way that Bush I, Clinton I, Bush II, Clinton II represents "change." Moreover, if her argument is that her experience as First Lady in her husband's White House matters, then that's strike two for "change." And strike three? Just a guess, but I bet we'll see it in tomorrow's debate.
