30. Her comments about inevitability pissed me off from the beginning.
I really think she wants power so badly, that she is willing to risk losing the WH to the Repugs, rather than doing what's best for the country. However, that standard that she is being held to, which I agree with by the way, is non-existent when it comes to Obama. Make no mistake, I'm not a Hillary lover, I'm just remarking on the fact that her accomplishments, some of them dubious at best, are being trashed. I don't see the same laser criticism aimed at any other candidate. I would love a woman in the WH, just not necessarily this one. I am actually losing sleep at night over the thought that her negatives are so polarizing, that we could end up with 8 more years of rape and pillage at the hands of the neocons. If I'm going to vote for Obama, who I happen to like a great deal, we are going to have to prepare for an onslaught against him from the loony right. We MUST be able to point out HIS accomplishments, which he doesn't seem to be highlighting enough. Like the bill he put together with Lugar, to secure loose nukes in Russia. Pretty impressive for a young senator from Illinois. Don't let my sarcasm make you think I am defending Hillary out of some personal agenda. I just think she is being trashed because of her gender. Have at her for enabling the war, etc. I do on a daily basis! Just hold others to the same standard.
