    Divided the country like no other politician before her; North vs South, Rich vs Poor.

    Bought the votes by selling off assets and current mess can be laid squarely on her doorstep.

    I voted against every time - but where I lived at the time, a dead donkey with a Blue Rosette would have got elected, so my vote was worthless, along with millions of others.
