I don't think I'd feel like that if she hadn't grossly exaggerated on the Bosnia and Ireland accomplishments and made the comments she has of late about the primary process itself.

FL and MI knew the drill when they changed the date, and it is an issue that needs to be addressed at a more public level well before the next election, but the solution is certainly not to call the nomination process into question.

That serves no one but her. It's as though she is making a case for a court battle over the nomination, and if we could get that little accidental uncounted FL and MI primary hurdle behind us that would probably help the Dems more than the negative impact of Hil and her lies.

I agree that she, as a candidate, has every right to stay in this race and battle it out until the end and I have supported it until very recently; but if she is going to continue to lie and/or mislead about her own accomplishments, she should do the right thing, as an American, and step out of the race.

I want to be able to trust my President and I do not envision ever being able to trust her again.

(Not that I really will anyway, whoever gets elected, just the straw thing...she broke it)
^ just curious - since ur in Pa.
can you give us ur demographics? ( age. sex. level of education ) ?
