Hillary Clinton will announce tomorrow that she is suspending her presidential campaign. Over on the main site, we asked seven leading political writers and policy thinkers to tell us one key way Clinton affected the 2008 Election, and progressive politics, over the course of the primary. Here’s what they had to say:
K.A. Geier: She Was a Front-runner, and She Stood Up For Women's Rights
Christopher Hayes: She Made Us Talk About Sexism
Ed Kilgore: She Helped Create a United Democratic Front on Iraq
Paul Starr: She Figured Out Health Care
Rebecca Traister: She Kept Voters, and the Candidates, Engaged Until the End
Moira Whelan: She Provided Leadership on National Security Issues
Kai Wright: She Made Us Reconsider Whether Progressives Understand Race
