4. I understand your optimisim.....but it's way too early.......Al Franken still has to have
a meeting in his apartment in December to crown the nominee. Just like he did with Kerry. So that is why it's too early.....it's not December yet.

6. Not if she keeps letting Wolfson represent her on TV
Total bully. Their campaign strategy of not yielding one inch reminds me of Rove and company. Our country deserves better.

9. "Their campaign strategy of not yielding one inch"
That should be EVERY Democrats campaign strategy.

No more sitting on our asses while the Swift Boaters smear us.

14. Wolfson was like using a sledgehammer when a scalpel would do
Disproportionate response, considering how far ahead Clinton is.

10. Well, the Clinton's are good at campaigning.. and surrounding themselves with top dogs, so
if Wolfson keeps barking up the wrong tree...Hillary will jettison him....sooner rather than later.

This thing is still toooooooo early in the game.

It is too early to say she is the defacto nominee.

17. has Clinton called for a cutoff of funding? Answer: NO!!
Clinton was playing politics (What else is new?) with the last funding bill. Admit it.

Here's a nice and easy question since you seem to want to look at one vote rather than at her position on the issue ... ready?

Has Clinton called for a cutoff of funding for continued offensive operations in Iraq?

That's the point of this thread, isn't it? She SUPPORTS continued funding. Or is that NOT correct?

Talking about her vote as if that somehow demonstrates "the facts" is just another way of distorting Clinton's position. Her position, as the OP correctly pointed out, is that she supports MORE FUNDING for the occupation.

I'm not sure since both Obama and Hillary did vote against the last funding bill.

16. You see, it was stupid to vote against funding so that is why BO voted to fund the war for 2 years
But suddenly when the pressure from the party's base became too much voting against funding became possible. :eyes:

18. After voting for it for 2 years
Edited on Thu Jul-26-07 05:19 PM by draft_mario_cuomo
Kind of odd for someone who claims he is against the war? Kucinich is the only true, consistent anti-war candidate.
