At Wednesday's CNN/Univision debate, Hillary Clinton acknowledged something her critics have been saying for a while. "I am not a natural politician, in case you haven't noticed, like my husband or President Obama," she said, "so I have a view that I just have to do the best I can, get the results I can, make a difference in people's lives, and hope people see that I am fighting for them."
