There doesn't seem to be an inbetween? People say they are going to vote for her or they hate her. I mean I don't want her to win the election but why do some people hate her so much?

People hate her mostly because she stuck by Bill after he cheated on her.
But those same people think Sen. Vitter's wife is a hero for standing by her husband, who has been caught hiring prostitutes when he was in Lousiana as well as Washington.
The ironic thing is that after the Clinton incident, Mrs. Vitter was quoted as saying, "I'm a lot more like Lorena Bobbitt than Hillary [Clinton]. If he does something like that, I'm walking away with one thing, and it's not alimony, trust me."
Today, Mrs. Vitter talked about how she forgives him, they are moving forward, and it is a private matter.
Seems that hypocracy is alive and well among party lines.
PS I do not love OR hate Hillary. She's not my first choice (or my second for that matter) and I would vote for her against some candidates and against her with others.

i'll see what i can do to give you a comprehensive list of reasons on both sides:
pro hillary:
it's possible that there's a wave of feminism attached, but there's also some deeper policy issue that she could have as advantageous.
hillary has a 100% rating from planned parenthood.
a 5% rating from the americans for tax reform folks
an 83% rating frmo the ACLU
95% rating from the NAACP
a 21% rating from the john birch conservative index
policy reasons to dislike her include the above (if you disagree with those interest groups) and below--
a 0% rating from the national right to life committee.
an 11% rating from american land rights assocation
an F rating from the NRA
8% from US border patrol
other serious reasons include her husband's presidency, her position on the iraq war, and past legal issues.
some people spout things like "she's a socialist!" and make jokes like hitlery, etc.
i actively encourage people to dislike politicians for specific issue reasons.
but dumb jokes are not an argument.

Dude your questions on here twice... That's freaky. I was like looking at both of them and trying to decide who to answer first.
