118. I must agree
I am going to vote...that is a given. I am not going to let anyone make me stay at home, because I think that is part of the reason for the vote fraud...it blows the steam right out of us.

Hillary is a lackluster Senator, from my progressive point of view, but acceptable in the current political climate. That does NOT preclude anyone from bashng her for her positions on the issues. She deserves that because she is elected to represent the People, and the People will have a say in their own well-being (even non-New Yorkers).

She will get my vote in a general election, but only if she overcomes all of the opposition I and many of my fellow progressives plan to put on her in the primaries.

Here are the senators who should have nothing to fear from a progressive backlash, in my opinion.

Harkin (Iowa) 95
Boxer (CA) 90
Lautenberg (NJ) 90
Akaka (Hawaii) 80
Corzine (NJ) 80
Dayton (MN) 80
Durbin (IL) 80
Feingold (WI) 80
Kennedy (MA) 80
Kerry (MA) 80 - DLC

Yeah, I said it, Kerry. The numbers do not lie.
