10. My problem with Hillary... (why she is my third choice)
At the debates the other night, it was summed up perfectly... Hillary represents policies that are "status quo" to me. I know that Edwards said that several times, but I am not parroting him. I've felt that way since the beginning. While she is a woman and that alone is a big change, the rest of her seems to just be a continuation of the Clinton way of doing things. Not that I have any dislike for Bill Clinton's terms in office (in fact, I think he did very well), I just don't think we need a milquetoast term or two of Clinton plodding along with how Bush did things and maybe, just maybe fixing "one or two" problems.

There is no doubt in my mind that Hillary would do an adequate job as President. She's respected the world over, is very professional, and of high caliber. But she's just not what we need right now. We need big changes right now. Someone who will roll up their sleeves and start undoing the last eight years of Bush's wreckless amok...
