        I wrote a column about it if you want to click on the link. Also, a book that examined Clinton's strengths and weaknesses.

        I respect Allen as he is the only political reporter that I know of who will admit that HRC is the white whale for media.

        Maybe because she has faced so very much criticism throughout years she has developed a few blind spots.
