Hillary for President
Michael J writes us....."Why couldn't Hillary win? The Congressional Democrats may be wussies, on average, but Hillary is tough as nails.
She voted for the Iraq war authorization. She is battle-tested by standing tall through her husband's impeachment.
Husband Bill was Commander in Chief during fantasically successful wars in Bosnia and Kosovo. Did ANY Americans die as result of the hostilites there? Those wars were to remove dictators, to prevent a breeding ground for terrorists, to prevent a widening conflict, and for democracy-building---all the same reasons Bush has come around to in Iraq.
I haven't decided between Hillary or John McCain. But it is ironic that the first legimate women candidate for US president could be considered as tough for national security by this moderate, as the heroic POW McCain."

First of all I hope Hillary runs. That would be a true gift, nothing like giving the gift of laughter. I do not see McCain getting the nomination of my party. He is clearly a Republican in name only. While the left seem to like him and the media has already elected him, we on the right wish he would jump ship and become the Dem he has always wanted to be but to cowardly to run as.
I know the "polls" don't show this but they do not show a lot of things.

Hillary is a hoot. Smartest woman in the world! Made $100,000 in a couple months off a $1,000 investment. Bet you (or Charles Schwab)can't do that! On the other hand her husband had a 13 year affair with Jennifer Flowers (not counting the others) and Hillary didn't notice. Didn't notice? And I thought our intelligence operations were terrible under Bush!

Hillary Clinton can't stand the ethics test. Remember filegate? Turning a $1000 into $100,000 by buying Tyson Chicken options or pork futures, I forget which, but I remember how impossible it was to do without some tricky manipulation. I do not trust Mrs. Clinton as a Senator and I certainly couldn't trust her as President. We can do better.
