I met Hillary when she was the First Lady (she came to visit a USO in Korea) and I found here to be very engaging. Given my time with her was very brief compared to a secret service agent and a Presidential vehicle pilot. You could tell she was absolutely brilliant and some may b threatened/turned off by that.
Oh, no, I have heard her speak in person and was part of a meet and greet and she is absolutely as you said. She is very good at maintaining her image in public view. The stuff I heard was much more about her interactions with, for lack of a better term, staff. By that I don't mean her office staff, but those personnel that carry out the day-to-day around the WH and the First Family.
I think it's a very common thing, though, that you will have people with a very different persona in the public eye than when they are in a more private setting. It's just that when you are in the First Family, private means being surrounded by SS, staff, and military personnel.
