help me out if you have any insight for me, without trashing hil.
-One thing I don't like about Hillary is that she is soooo defensive. And i know it's just who she is as a person, i don't fault her for it, i don't mind it, but i think it might make diplomacy much harder for her.
So on that angle i like Obama.
-also like that he is fresh, who knows what he'll come up with, probably something others haven't tried before, and that she would not, because she's going to go with what she knows. So these are the 2 things that keep me coming back to him.
That AND i'm not sure i can QUITE get my head around mandated health care, and even if i could, which i can, BUT i worry that it will hurt her electablity. (other than that, i believe she is perfectly electable).
But just as all around POTUS, i like her better, she's so hyper motivated to change things, (i'm mean, she's nuts that way, she doesn't stop) that's what i *do* like about her, she smart and she undo as much of Bush's crap as she can, and she knows a lot about education, and i know she'll try to get as many things done as she can. etc, etc, etc, etc. it is my PERSONAL opinion that she is more prepared than he, so that i'm stuck on, but i don't have big fears about his readiness.
My issue is there is that I do find her kinda shady, so i don't want her doing toooooo many underhanded things, and i believe she would, esp. when it comes to making things happen that will work for HER, and not nec. the people. (for example, free trade, i know she and barack have almost identical ratings/voting record on it but i can see her trying to pull a fast one to appease someone so she could get something else passed that would make her the good guy, does that make sense?
whereas obama comes across as MUCH less likely to do things that will upset me.
I also just have a natural affinity for her, I watch videos of things she talks about and i am glued. I've loved her since her cookies comment in 91 or whatever. And even watching her today on tv, i just like her. Whereas Obama leaves me so seriously cold, but of course i could deal with that no problem. But i'd prefer see her face in the paper every day.
Without being snarky or hating on one, anyone have any insight on any of this?
SO...I will be happy with either of them. (i'd be happy with any of the current dems, but right now these are who i toss over the most).
i love her, but every day i find myself wondering about the 2. thanks
