Because it's certainly appearing Clinton is going to be the front-runner for the Democratic party in '08, I went to her campaign page in hopes of getting a little more info on her stance on some of the hot issues, and more importantly, what she would do different.
The page is incredibly lacking in such information.

I did go through the Q&A sessions that she has posted, and was not impressed.

She was asked about health care - she wants it socialized and run by the government (I do not agree with this stance at all).

She was asked what her plans were to get the troops out of Iraq... and after this question was asked she sure talked for a while... but she never actually answered the question.
Just the usual going on about how the current administration sucks - which is fine.. but what would you do different? If you can't tell me, you're not getting my vote. That simple.
Has she given a solid answer anywhere else that I haven't seen?

Hmmm.... no answer yet. Not a good sign.

Has she given a solid answer anywhere else that I haven't seen?

Not if she can help it...

Like most (all?) Democrats she loves to bash Bush over the war, however in 2002 she told 'Code Pink' that she had to support it, that everything Bush said about Iraq was true. Code Pink was outside her Senate office yesterday protesting that fact.

"I ended up voting for the resolution after carefully reviewing the information, intelligence that I had available, talking with people whose opinions I trusted, tried to discount the political or other factors that I didn't believe should be in any way a part of this decision," Hillary in 2003

"So he took the authority that I and others gave him and he misused it, and I regret that deeply. And if we had known then what we know now, there never would have been a vote and I never would have voted to give this president that authority." Hilary 2007.

I think she is waiting to see how the "surge" goes. If it works, which she is being told it won't, she does not want to look as if she's opposed to success in Iraq. If it doesn't work she'll come in hard for a pull out. Is she being political? Yup! She's seen Mccain bet the farm on more troops and knows what will happen to him if the surge fails, but she also knows that in the off chance it works, even for a short while, she's better off waiting.

Personally I prefer Obama's and McCain's willingness to risk all on the war, but then neither of them is married to the canniest US pol of the last half century.

Shad/anyone, what's her website address?

Hilary made a calculated vote on Iraq. She was personally against it but thought if she voted FOR it, that would show she was "tough" enough to be president and not weak on defense.

She assumed that the wild-eyed left would give her a break on it and turn their face from that vote knowing that she didn't mean it.

She is being surprised by the fact that so far they aren't.

I dont really support hillary, but in her defense: There is a long ****ing time before people need to get that concerned with the 08 election...

The lost opportunities of the years since September 11 are the stuff of tragedy. Remember the people rallying in sympathy on the streets of Teheran, the famous headline -- "we are all Americans now." Five years later much of the world wonders what America is now.



She's right about this.

She's right about this.

Yes she is, but don't trust the bitch!
