Wacky, Elinda? Are you saying the Hellbeast would make a better president than her husband? If not, then voting for her is settling for less, particularly since there would ostensibly be so many other possible candidates who could match Bill's achievements as president.
I guess I've not really considered her political prowness relative to her husbands. Nor, did I ever really 'compare' George W to George Sr. when making conclusions about how well he served the country (at least not consciously).
Certainly many politicians make the the cut because of family ties, but I try to make decisions about them based on their own merit. I kinda assumed others did to.
Speaking of family politics; Kathleen Sebelius (Gov of Kansas) has seemed to be in the spotlight much as of late. She's the daughter of former Iowa Gov. Gilligan (D), and daughter-in-law of former US Rep. Sebilius (R). Supposedly she carries a phenomanal 70% approval rating as a democratic Governor in a red state. Perhaps a running mate to Obama?
