This is a silly remark. Look at past presidents who have been regarded as successful and take inventory of their faults...

Our sitters certainly do have faults, doesn't disqualify them from service.

As you said: "There are varying degrees of everything." Getting a BJ in the oval office is not as disqualifying as a pattern of failed foreign policy decisions and wrong choices such as using the personal server. Nor are getting BJ's an indication of Presidential incompetence.

The proper time to take inventory of faults is before voting, not after one has already served.

But you don't even admit she has displayed serious faults. You choose to color them by seemingly harmless euphemisms such as not "the best thing to do."

I've never said she's perfect, but I think he accomplishments far outweigh her flaws, even more so considering the alternatives.
