Showing Original Post only (View all)I think I'm doing a re-think on Hillary...This "pile-on" of her is so ridiculous and just seems [View all]
so childish and immature, I'm embarrassed for those doing it. Look, I will never, ever be as excited and enthused about a candidate as I was (both times) for Barack Obama. That's just a fact and the truth. Hillary has said and done a lot of things that make me scratch my head and go WTH??? At times, Barack Obama has made me feel the same way. One of the positive things I've noticed about Hillary is that she has a tough skin. Dear Lord, she is going to need it and I also think she was a wonderful SOS. I'm still in the middle of my re-think but if/when she is the Democratic nominee, she would of course, get my vote...It's either her or Bib...errr...their guy and she would definitely be superior to any in the clown car...

It's totally safe to support someone who is not going to run. They can never disappoint you.
