She has received more campaign funding from the defense industry than any other candidate, Democratic or Republican. She pandered to pro-war voters in Wyoming a few days ago by saying (well,
shrieking), "We have to win in Afghanistan. We have to win in Iraq."

O.K. Jdanton's biggest fault is that he is always right.

And he is just concerned, as he has posted at least28 times, that Obama
will not be able to make his grandchildren choose homework over
video games.

How, exactly, does he expect Hillary Clinton to deliver on her universal health care promise when she is the second biggest recipient of the health care industry's lobbying money? Unlikely that she will bite the hand that has fed her and her husband for all these many years.

If there is a more desperate and stupid comment uttered by Ms. Clinton I am not aware of it. Giving the opposition that kind of credibility is, given the opposition's likelihood of using it against her and Mr. Obama, possibly the most damaging mistake made in a campaign rife with them.
That said, really believing there is no difference between Hillary Clinton and John McCain is as potentially destructive as it was when too many decided there was no difference between Al Gore and Bush. We have learned differently, to say the least.

I'll be the most pleasantly surprised guy on these boards if he wins the general, assuming he's the nominee, which is likely.
What does Hillary saying that she and McCain are the only candidates qualified to take the office of Pres on day one, and caucuses have to do with anything?

i am not a registered democrat, but if i were, i would be screaming for her to be shunned and humilated out of the party for such a stupid, and sure to be painfully regretted, move...

Only an old person would decry video games. Rock'n'roll is evil. Drugs are evil. Spoooons are evil. To the old, anything new is evil.
