She's brilliant and politically astute. I think if there were skeletons in her closet Tim Geithner and the Republican Party would have found them when they derailed her candidacy to direct the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. She's not hyper and given to being a loose cannon like Joe Biden and Howard Dean. She knows they will pull out all the stops to smear her and will be ready for it if she decideds to run.
