I don't hate Hillary Clinton.
I do criticize her however and it looks like hate to some of the Hillary supporters.

I have mentioned ways that she could redeem herself in my eyes before January 2008.

I don't want another corporatist in the white house, given my strategy for taking back this government which includes consumer boycotts against some of the biggest GOP contributors and asking them for the progressive legislation that the Republicans will not provide us with.

I believe corporations appear necessary in America but they should not get special privileges that the Republicans give them. Hillary, unfortunately would act Republican lite when it comes to corporations.

I don't believe Hillary would fight hard to move the drug benefit to Medicare part B. She doesn't mention this when I see her talk in debates or on the senate floor. She does talk about milquetoast negotiations, but not the removal of the premiums, or deductibles or the coverage gap or the late signup penalty for the drug benefit which will happen when the benefit gets moved to part B.


I don't hear Hillary call for single payer government universal health care.


She appears scared of the Nazi American community that doesn't like Whelllllfare and won't do anything to offend them because she believes she needs their votes to get elected.

1. Well said,
It's my personal belief that Clinton was our best republican president(covering the last 30 to 40 years.)

3. Neither do I. I hate the DLC and I'll do whatever I can to keep them out of power.
I wish she'd denounce the DLC, but I guess that's not going to happen.

6. a substantive criticism of Hillary
it's like a breath of fresh air among all the bile.

Regarding single-payer, only Kucinich among the candidates supports that. And Al Gore, if he gets in the race.

Your last sentence confounds me. :wtf:
