I agree with you...our country is ready for new vision. And I do not believe Bill will be her short-comings. He was a good president...he just should have been up front with the public...I do not think there has been ONE president that didn't 'carry-on' with other women while in the White House...Bill pissed us off by lying about it! But their politics were good and Hillary is her own woman and would be good for our country. I will vote for her! ;)

Just because she is a woman doesn't change anything -- which may be the most revolutionary thing about her candidacy. (some people care, but a large portion of the country is beyond the identity politics that the boomers forced on the country starting in the late 60's.) We have a African-American, woman, Mormon and Hispanic as viable candidates for the Presidency.
The most controversial thing about her is that she is married to an ex-president and has changed home states more than Bill has changed his hair style. There are few op-ed's out there saying a woman can't do the job. In that way only does her candidacy mark a new era... an era of, are you good enough or right for the job based on what you are not who you are.
In my mind, Hillary is just Democratic politics as usual. One more establishment politician. What is different about her other than her gender and linage? She is good at what she does, but is she a "new era"? I don't think so.

Hillary... the "start of a new era for the USA"?
Sorry, but I just can't share that thought.
I'm thinking more like... "Hillary... the end of the USA as we know it".
Remember the old TV cartoon where you see the wolf drooling over his next meal?
That's the Republicans, now that Hillary and Obama have tossed their hats into the ring.
Too bad for John Edwards, he gets screwed by the DNC again.

Hillary credibility no.
Clintons have done enough damage to America.
They trash the DNC. They trash the White House.
They trash the idea of woman in sexual harressment case should be protected.
After Bill ran away from Africa after Blackhawk down bin laden started his plans for 9/11.
She needs to go away.
If the DNC puts her up we are going to face another 8 years GOP in the White House follow by the GOP winning Congress back.
I am not looking forward to that.

I wish that she wouldn't run.
She is going to really hurt the Democrat Party by running.
She has far too many enemies from when Bill was president.
I no longer trust her either, since she became a warhawk and accepted donations from Rupert Murdoch.

She's too full of herself, and that is what bugs me the most about Bush. The next president should be someone who listens to all people. And cares about everyone in the nation. Not someone who is a hardline Democrat or Republican extremist.
I agree with Scooter up there.

I think she's more concerned about making history than helping America. She's a radical as is Bush and the last thing the country needs is another radical from either the left or the right.

If she's running for President, you may as well start running for you life.
Hitler wrote, "Mein Kampf," a blueprint of his ideal Nationalist Society.
Hillary wrote, "It takes a village," a blueprint of her ideal Socialist Society.
I see some scary similarities.....(i.e. pure evil redux)

You think her ideals are much different than Bill's. I can't see a difference. The only difference is Bill will be our first lady then.
How about a little fresh meat in office that might actually bring on change.

She will destroy this country. She rode Bill's coattails and thinks that makes her qualified? If she had any self-respect, she would have divorced him. I don't want Obama either, but he would be a better fit for the job because you could claim his ideals were still intact.
