I could support Hillary for the VP position.
My dream ticket would be Richardson Edwards, or Gore Clinton. I would be happy with either.

I did like what I read at yahoo, though, especially her recognition of a bad decision on Iraq.

4. IMO 50% of the support for Hillary comes from the fact
she's Bill Clinton's wife. WTF is that about? Haven't the last 6 years proved nepotism is worthless as a credential?

Hillary is an average politician. We should be seeking out and running the very best of the best.

5. Yes, sadly, Hillary IS just an average politician.
As much as I would like to have a female President, I agree with you. I want a President (either gender) who has intelligence, experience and honest, well-reasoned thoughts on the important issues of our time. I just think Hillary refuses to take any stand that might cost her a few votes.

8. Hillary is average by any standard
Edited on Sun Jan-28-07 02:17 PM by wtmusic
and I defy you to provide evidence to the contrary. If she's picked by Democrats to represent her party it will be overwhelmingly because of general media/public fascination with celebrity, which sucks eggs as a qualification for political office.

9. I would think considering someone average is a matter of opinion...
I think she's a fine candidate and would make a good president, but I think that about all the other dems running for prez. I like them all.

Besides, while I do think we've got an apathetic public, I don't think they're stupid either.

7. She was sarcastic and she's very late on this "admission"
"I did like what I read at yahoo, though, especially her recognition of a bad decision on Iraq."

She was smarmy with this remark. Sarcastic bitch!
What took her so long? Five years??
It took her that long and even at that she blew off all the anti-war Dems!?! :wtf:

F her! She's still doing this!
