Clinton shows her vulnerable side: âI'm not a natural politician'

When asked why her "untrustworthy" rating is so high after 25 years in public office, Hillary Clinton winced. "It's painful for me to hear that," she said, perhaps remembering the 2008 New Hampshire debate in which she was asked almost exactly the same question, but with fewer years. "Well, that hurts my feelings," she had said then.
The only time she has feelings is when something stands between her and the brass ring.
The more voters get to know her, the more they like her, she answered, citing her popularity as senator after New Yorkers "saw me in action." Then she got personal.

"I'm not a natural politician, in case you haven't noticed, like my husband or President Obama," she said. "So I have a view that I just have to do the best I can, get the results I can, make a difference in people's lives."
Just not the difference that we want.
There was no follow-up question for Sen. Bernie Sanders on why voters might not like him.

#2 Many years ago I saw a cartoon that showed a guy on a psychiatrist's couch saying "I said 'I don't understand why people don't like me. Open up your ears and listen, fathead!' "

This is just the start of Hillary's problem.
