why I can't stand Hillary-but will vote for her

On the day she became the presumptive nominee for the Democratic Presidency, Hillary Clinton was interviewed by Judy Woodruff of PBS Newshour.  Early in the interview, Judy asked her about the Sanders race and the enthusiasm of his followers.  Her response was first to point out that she had won more votes than Bernie and that her supporters were enthusiastic too.
So, given the chance to be magnanimous and ease the transition, she just couldn't bring herself to do it.  What would it have cost her to just say he had some great ideas, or that she welcomed his people or whatever?  Nope, lets just rub his nose in it.
A few questions later, the conversation turned to Libya and her support of intervention there.  Turns out, our involvement was a "presidential decision."
There you go, in the first couple of minutes, she gloats over her win, absolves herself of any responsibility for Libya and throws Obama under the bus.
What arrogance.
