Reply #58: Look...you decided not to really look at my post.

I never said her health care plan wasn't better. I loved her health care plan back then (when reading it historically) and as a kid I knew it was important. As an adult I respected her plans on health care (in the 90s) and was sorry to see it squashed---actually horribly sorry. This is post 5 years living in England and almost 6 years without health insurance.

So I'm not saying her health care plan in the 90s wasn't better. If you're saying during the primaries. I'm not going to whinge too much on that because she lost all together. I personally preferred Obama's plan and as I stated someone without health insurance I was looking at health care more closely and sided with O over her. Not that there was much of a difference. So as to who had the better one during the primaries is subjective.

Secondly, no one candidate runs on health care alone...end of story. So for you to suggest, and this is speaking about primaries (if you were remarking on her health care plan then) I would seriously take issue to that. Because that's not enough...that's not to say that's not much change but it would still say a change from her position in the 90s. Although if she ran on the same platform in the 90s last year she wouldn't have made it past the preliminary voting----or I think so at least.

I'm not saying that half O's people aren't Clinton people....because I am aware of that; since it's a rather incestuous game what we see as politics today. However, I mentioned several fronts where I don't think HRC would have been "remarkable" or rather "inactive".

I notice on this thread you take a lot of HRC comments personally. You don't have to expound on her greatness to me, which is what I feel you're doing. Actually I think you may see yourself an advocate for her on this board. However, that's not the case...overall she's okay and I should know considering she was my Senator. However, in lieu of the question posed I don't really think she would be remarkable or in the same "massive change" spree I see with O. That's not to say she might not be, I just don't think she would be. That being said...I don't think my post was unfairly critical just something I've picked up. End of story.

Lastly during the primaries it was a strong toss up as to who I would vote for and I was leaning in the HRC camp for several reasons and switched over for health care and the dirty politics being played. So again..there's no need to feel avenging...just not my thing. Which I think I'm allowed without an *eyeroll* and/or derision.
