Basically she represented more of the same, which was another thing working against her after 8 years of Obama. She wanted a public option. Guess what? So did Obama, when he was campaigning. He caved when in office due to political pressure. No telling what her actual policy would be once in office but it's hard to think she'd have been much different from Obama.
Except she was more of a war hawk than he was. That's one key difference.
