this morning she still has work to do... polls show clinton has major challeges with independents and others who aren't sure she's trustworthy. 7-34 i think there's an underlying question that may really in the back of people's minds and that is, "you know is she in it for us, or is she in it for herself?" i think that's you know a question that people are trying to sort through. and i'm going to demonstrate that i've always been the same person - fighting for the same values, fighting to make a real difference in people's lives - long before i was ever in elected office. even before my husband was in the presidency after trumps win last night, today it was lights out in atlanta trump spoke to thousands of supporters at the georgia world of his speech, a protestor turned off the lights. once they got they figured out...trump stuck to issues like the u-s
