As a woman and as a Democrat, I am ashamed of Hillary Clinton
Advertisements [?]
She has run her campaign exactly like George W. bu$h ran his in 2000 and in 2004. Democrats didn't like that when Republicans did it then. But they're somehow OK with it now that Hillary is doing the VERY same. The GOP /George W. bu$h/ Dick Cheney / Karl Rove method. ALL the same.

Hillary Rodham Clinton has no integrity and IMO, neither does ANYONE who would support her - because of this.

This woman is NOT a Democrat other than in name. She has run her campaign EXACTLY like a Republican would and I have NO reason to believe that she would not run the White House the SAME way. WE HAVE ALREADY HAD EIGHT YEARS OF THAT.

I DO NOT support Republicans because this is how they conduct themselves in campaigns and in office. I WILL NOT support a Democrat who conducts his/herself that way in campaigns or in office.

Supporting Hillary in continuing the destruction of the Democratic Party in this way - and supporting her in the continued destruction of this country wherein she would likely continue leading us down the SAME shameful DESTRUCTIVE road George W. bu$h has lead us down for the past eight years - is NOT supporting CHANGE.

IT'S SUPPORTING MORE REPUBLICAN POLITICS and the SAME Republican politics we've decried for EIGHT LONG YEARS.


Hillary Clinton is the antithesis of everything the Democratic Party ever stood for - for me. She is the antithesis of everything this country ever stood for - just as much as George W. bu$h, Karl Rove, Dick Cheney, John McCain, et al and I will NOT support HER for the same reasons I will NOT support THEM.

As a "role model" for any women, all she has to offer is to demonstrate how to "win" at ANY and ALL cost, and how to LIE, CHEAT, SMEAR her opponent, and get her friends and enemies alike to assist her in doing so - BECAUSE SHE CAN'T WIN OTHERWISE. If she could, then WHY RESORT TO SUCH TACTICS? All she has to offer any women is to demonstrate how to plunge a campaign, a party, and a country down to the lowest depths of debauchery and divisiveness in order to get HER way and to "win". Straight into the political sewer is where she took her campaign. I have NO reason to believe she won't take and keep her White House there, too. Just where it's already been for 8 years.

THOSE ARE "LESSONS" Hillary offers women. They lack intelligence, integrity and RESPECT for the process, the party, and for the country. And personally, I've had ENOUGH of them and seen enough of them from the Republican Party which is why I never belonged to it or supported it.

Likewise, I will NOT support Hillary Rodham Clinton in the General Election if she is the "nominee" (such as it is).

If this nomination is handed to her (and at this point that is the only way she'd get it) THIS MAY BE THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE that I simply do not vote at all, or that I do not vote for the "Democratic" nominee (simply because I do not consider Hillary Clinton a Democrat).

I'll either stay home or write in Obama.

IT IS NOT Hillary's supporters who have lead me to this conclusion.

I don't care what they say.

It is HILLARY CLINTON herself and the nasty, dirty, lowdown, disgusting way she has conducted her presidential campaign. She is an insult to me as a woman, and as a Democrat and as an American - AND SHE IS AN INSULT TO MY INTEGRITY. She SHOULD be an insult to the integrity of any Democrat.

If OTHERS want to support this woman, fine with me - but I WILL NOT. She has LONG SINCE lost my vote. I would no more vote for her then I would vote for Karl Rove himself for President.

She is a REPUBLICAN - she behaves like a Republican - she has conducted her campaign like a Republican and I have NO REASON TO BELIEVE she won't run the White House JUST like a Republican - and I don't vote Republican - AND AFTER EIGHT YEARS of just this type of politics, I don't WANT anymore of it!

And I know quite a few others both on and off of DU who feel the SAME way. Their numbers are INCREASING daily. And HILLARY is the cause of it.
