I mean you're probably broadly right -- I certainly haven't paid any attention to anything any campaign has said recently, with the notable exception of Limberbutt's (they've been quiet on the issues) -- but

    She has nobody's interest in mind but her own.

this actually doesn't mean she'll be a bad president, if you think about it closely, and

    many of her campaign's statements and her intentions are wildly, dangerously different

this is how the system she is playing within was built, and

    Yes they will need to start the debates all over again

what will this accomplish given the current makeup of the House and Senate? Nothing. Finally,

    The only thing most people have been able to discern so far is who is speaking their mind, and who is talking out of their wallet.

I'd reserve judgement on that until at least 20 years from now.
