What the hell would it say about Bill Clinton if he was constantly sending her to places that were so dangerous he wouldn’t go himself?  
[/QUOTE]

Even worse, why would you send _your only child_ to a place that you thought too dangerous for yourself?

I should’ve made that post weeks ago - she said it in the debate in mid February, right? Now I’m reading that other people were saying the same thing on TV only yesterday when I thought it always stuck out like a sore thumb.

Am I the only person on this board who doesn’t hate Hillary Clinton?  
[/QUOTE]

No. I actually think she’d make a decent president. I’ll most likely vote for McCain but I wouldn’t lose sleep if she won.

I do feel like we are a minority though.

Hey! She didn’t lie. She misspoke.

There is a photo on Snopes: [Mr. Obama does not have his hand over his heart, however, no one is facing the flag.](http://message.snopes.com/showthread.php?t=19053)

It is an interesting read.

What a miserably trivial issue.

The fact that she’s actively being compared to _ **Tonya Harding** _ :eek: demonstrates what a complete failure her campaign has been at accomplishing anything except fomenting division and chaos.

[QUOTE=Jodi]  
And this is why we can look forward to four more years of a Republican Executive. Nothing fills the tiny hearts of Republicans with glee like the spectacle of the two Democrat candidates clawing each other like two cats in a bag.

I’m amazed at the number of Democrats saying that they won’t vote for the other candidate. That’s a Republican dream come true.  
[/QUOTE]

Excuse me, I am a registered independent. I have no loyalty to the Democrats. I am under no moral obligation to vote for whoever they happen to spit from their maw. I will damn well vote Republican if I think the Democratic candidate is utterly corrupt and despicable. I won’t cut off my nose to spite the Republicans, but by all means, if that’s what you’d like to do, go right ahead.

[QUOTE=rowrrbazzle]

Let’s see, off the top of my head.

She’s whined about how hard it is for a woman to campaign. And it’s just the primary! What will she be like during the actual election? Or in office?

She’s let her philandering husband come to her defense, as though he were a knight in shining armor and poor little wifey couldn’t do it herself and needed his help. (And in the process, he’s pissed off Obama and his supporters.)

She lied about ducking bullets on her visit to Bosnia.

She’s trying to seat the delegates in Florida that everyone, including her, already agreed wouldn’t be going to the convention.

[/QUOTE]

You were doing just fine here. The Obama stuff? Not even close! I LURVE Obama! He is Da MAN!

Of course you don’t have any moral obligation to vote for anyone. By all means, vote Republican if you think the Democratic candidate is utterly corrupt and despicable. That’s how we’re going to end up with another four year Republican president. Which was exactly what I said, so your post doesn’t refute my point; it makes it.

ETA: Re: “Hopefully none of use will have to make that choice!” If you have demonized one of the Democratic candidates as “utterly corrupt and despicable”, then of course that’s the choice you’ll have to make. That’s the point.
