I know you think it's about the free stuff. We just have a fundamental disagreement about this. I think that if there is a category of people out there who are just in it for the free stuff, it isn't that big of a category. Most people have strong senses of individuality. Yes, there are the dependent types. I don't disagree, but I don't think the numbers justify the stereotyping.

Iraq is huge. America would be better off this election season if we engaged in political discussions about Iraq. With Obama/McCain America has clear chices. With Hillary/McCain, not so much.

The issue is not experience, it's judgment, Hillary has no real executive leadership experience to speak of. Obama atually has more legislative years than Hillary.

When wisdom was needed in the Iraq vote, Hillary had none.

There is no credible way of saying that Obama's speech against the stupidity of Iraq wasn't an example of strong leadership. Courageous actually. Iraq was a life and death issue, not some trade agreement. 70% of the clueless country was all in to bomb Iraq. Obama spoke truth to the majority during the runup. And he was note for note accurate about what would happen if we attacked Iraq.

That's leadership. That's what leadership looks like. This issue wasn't some argument over earmarks. It was whether 4000 soldiers would be dead. It was whether $3 trillion in debt, with nothing to show for it, was sound fiscal judgment.

Andrea: The one thing about Hillary, and I'm being serious here, Hillary is a fighter. I think that quality will, in the end, wind up damaging the party. It is possible, not likely but possible, that Hillary's pugnacity could lead to a McCain presidency. That would be very bad. Very bad.

If that's the case, why don't we make Cindy Sheehan the president ? Or maybe Michael Moore, Susan Sarandon, or the guy who works at the convenience down the street from my house. By your logic, they would all be better qualified for the job than Hillary or McCain. Yes, that's very sensible.

A quote from the article " In the end, determining which of the presidential candidates pays more attention to your concerns requires not adding up years of experience but a far more complex calculation: deciding what their experience have led them to truly value." One only needs to read about Obamas years in community service where he worked for under 10k a year so he could help the poor vrs Hillary always trying to get ahead for herself. Read his two books and you will see a man who really cares about the country verses a woman who is so ambitious and wants to win and who will stop at nothing to get her way.

Oh Hillary why can't you bow out graciously and be a lady …He congratulates you when you win but you do not congratulate him ….why are you becoming what the right always called you ding dong the wicked …… is ?
