    Hillary has potential. But I'm also one of those 50-ish femanists that wouldn't vote for her unless their was nothing else (think hot air balloons and McCain). She mirrors my thoughts exactly speaking on a commission. On the campaign trail, she's the opposite. Obviously, the bulk of the country now realize a stained dress wasn't so bad. I still remember headlines commenting on her headband and hairstyle when she tried to conduct panels on universal healthcare. That was equally as infuriating. She's was also the first (and last) that didn't play the role of a whitehouse mouse. Her score is about …

    "When Clinton’s candidacy is framed as a women’s issue, what follows is a lot of unpretty pandering and lack of clarity on the concerns we all share." I couldn't agree with you more. Hillary faced enormous challenges with the universal healthcare panels. Republicans controlled congress and the press was compliant as usual. That was the same congress that acted like spoiled brats and shut the government down to "get their way".

    I am not sticking up for Hillary, but I'm not jumping on bandwagons either. Bill shouldn't even factor into this conversation other than Hillary does have more experience in the WhiteHouse than the average 'first lady'. So much about voting for the president ends up being based on comparability, or the 'lesser of the evils'. Very rarely have their been canidates running that I've fully supported. In fact I'm usually holding my nose when I walk out of the voting booth. I would vote for Hillary over McCain just for the fact that with Hillary I would at least know who …

    Bush is a million times worse than anyone else, alive or dead including Hitler. There is no compromise. Your right about one thing: 80% of the voters have no political party to represent them. Whitewater was a smear campaign. I'm saddened to see someone with half a wit to question the marketing and p.r. schemes not realize that. you might want to watch this. it's BBC, so it's well resourced and has passed several critiques with only minor errors. it's been shown several times around the world - except here. It's not even distributed. http://www.jonhs.net/freemovies/power_of_nightmares.htm The concepts presented can simplify alot. …
