The race-baiting goes both ways. In the general election, some of the cries of racism will be met with accusations of playing the race card. In general I found Bubba and Cuomo's comments to be completely non-racist, whereas I thought Shaheen's and one other (I forget now) stepped over the line. The rest of it is the same type of smears against Kerry for taking Dean down, and that ultimately cost Kerry the election. The guy was thoroughly neutered by Democrats before even beginning the general election. The same thing is happening again should Hillary win. Look at the litany you wrote above: vote on Iraq War (in line with every Democrat with aspirations of running for President including Edwards), race-baiting (a trumped up charge), lying (goes both ways since Obama's group uncovered a picture of Hillary with Rezko), failure (health care? My God, you are holding 1993 against her? Obama doesn't even have mandates), corrupt and incompetent inner circle (Bubba is listed there?), Wal-Mart lawyer (come on! please, that's as low as imagining Obama changing his policies on Big Pharma just because they are major contributors (which he did)).
It is about gender. I'm convinced. Why did your Republican friends hate her? I can't see why.
And that is quite an interesting comment on a lot of levels.
No, I don't like any of them. The US hasn't had a president I like since Roosevelt died.
But I'll take Obama because I don't know that he's a trigger-happy lunatic. Devil I don't know over the devil I do.
But I'll root for Clinton if she gets the nomination, because the thought of McCain sitting on 27 thousand megaton sends chills down my spine.
