...she would get the same treatment from the Right that Bush got from the left?
And that nothing would get done because of partisan bickering?

Most likely so. The partisan bickering has really gotten out of control.

You're kidding right?
What about the treatment Bill Clinton got from the right?
Being impeached for a ********.
Compare that to the situation with Bush. Ignoring the UN, basically comitting war crimes, sending our troops to die in a quagmire, and no sign of impeachment.
Republicans are just out for their own party and don't care about the country. Democrats are much more willing to give the other side the benefit of the doubt, to a fault.
If Clinton does get elected she'll probably face the same treatment from the right that her husband got. Yes.

First of all, the Conservatives would be screaming to have the Patriot Act repealed. And she would get a worse treatment from the right that the left has given Bush. The left has given Bush a hard time for good reasons. The right will give Hillary a hard time just because she is a Clinton.

there's been a Clinton or a Bush in the white house since 1988, almost 20 years. Do you really want another 4 or 8 years of the same two families?

If by unreasonable attacks that prevent America from addressing real issues, then yes.
Unfortunately, partisanship will likely cripple American prosperity fro at least a decade to come.
Rehashing Clinton will not move the US forward.
Regardless of Democrat or Republican, you need someone from outside the box.
And it should be a Democrat only because the GOP has had their turn for 8 years, not because of any fundamental difference (there are none)

To the idiot who said that the difference between the right and left is supporting the leader no matter what the party.
Get it straight.
Clinton - impeached for his sex life
Bush - illegal war, our soldiers dead, NO impeachment.
Your party didn't support Clinton, did nothing but try to get him out of the White House from day 1, regardless of anything he actually did.
Dems actually support Bush, even though he's a freaking idiot who has commited war crimes.
Get it straight nutjob.

Absolutely. What you just described is known as the Bush/Clinton Era of politics. It's been going on for 20 years, we can't afford to inbread any more, it's time for some very fresh ideas.

The difference is Hillary would throw a hissy fit with any negative attention. Therefore she wouldn't get anything accomplished.

I think that the right would criticize her for the things that she did that were actually bad for America, as opposed to constant criticism for fabricated wrong doing that historically has come from the left for the last several years. The thing that democrats who change to the republican side first notice about the democrat party is it's chronic dishonesty.

Depends on how the rest of the election panned out and who is in control of the house and senate.
