I guess I'm a bit fatalistic about Hillary. I'm not a Democrat, I was raised libertarian, but I don't identify with that anymore either. I often support Vermin Supreme in jest, because at the end of the day I think power and evil go hand in hand and changes in society are often outside the control of politicians and occur as unintended consequences (also, sour grapes). Thus, to some extent, I agree with Batlord and JWB: better my evil guy than somebody elses evil guy - and by that I do include moral alignment. In that regard, I see Hillary as an arm of the corporations, even to the extent of supporting the TPP.
She will support civil rights, carefully and with public acceptance, like Obama (iirc he didn't support gay marriage until it was >50% in the polls). It's like they're throwing us a bone while they otherwise maintain the status quo.
