My Take
What strikes me most about Hillary Clinton is sheer durability. First lady, senator, secretary of state—each role earned under relentless scrutiny that would have ended most careers several times over. I find her most interesting in defeat: after losing the presidency she wrote, taught, and stayed in the arena rather than retreating into bitterness. You can debate her policies and her instincts, and half of America does, but the crack she put in the highest glass ceiling made every campaign after hers imaginable. As an editor I value persistence over charisma, and her career is one of the great case studies in refusing to disappear.
