1. Forced Hillary to articulate an anti-war position?
Thanks, I'll be here all week.

16. All kidding aside, compare the Senator Clinton who ran for re-election in 2006
to the Senator Clinton running today. Obama put the war front and center, IMO.

2. It's nothing he can do. Nor Hillary, Biden, Dodd or Edwards.
They haven't won the presidency....yet.

6. Hillary and Edwards sure could have done something
If they had any leadership ability and if Hillary had at least read the damn intel report before the IWR.

3. Not a darn thing. In fact, he's continued to fund it. While acting like the anti-war candidate.

10. Not much
Just like all the others (current and even recent members and to be fair - even my Choice)
I think there is more - that could have been done - lets see Re pup's use Holds and block all kinds of Votes - but Dem,s don't?

18. Since he wants to bomb Iran, maybe he thinks he can divert
all the fighters to Iran and they won't be fighting in Iraq.
