she's spent her entire career broadening her appeal. She went from progressive, to progressive leaning dem, since she's been in office.

The point is that she went from waitress to congress in 2 years - a giant achievement that at the same time gives her a "rookie" label. It's not unreasonable that it will take a few more years to become seasoned enough for the presidency in mainstream voters' minds.

i'm not hating on her, it's certainly impressive and i'm confident she'll have a good political career, it's just amusing to me that the progessive politics all but immediately died when she started being taken seriously lol.
