The blogbaba wants to see another Clinton in the white house, and has been supporting Hillary since she announced she was running. The idea of all those neo-con Republican right wing conservatives having Bill back as the first gentleman is just to good to miss. Obama would make a fine replacement for Cheney.
Hillary believes not putting our troops in front of IUD's or sniper fire is actually "supporting" them. She and Bill know that neither cutting and running or the surge will end the war. She just believes Iraq is not the cause of 9/11. If Bush wasn't an adopted member of the Saudi royal family maybe we wouldn't be in the quagmire Iraq is today. Eventually the U.S. is going to have to face our real enemy, and I have bad new for both Liberals and Democrats. It's not radical Islam.
Give the woman the chance, she will fix the mess George caused, and maybe even balance the budget again.

I'd prefer Obama because Hillary Clinton is a warmongering opportunist. As I've said in previous posts, she could have been a leader, but she chose to be a follower ... of George W. Bush.
It's really sad because I think both her and her husband had a lot of opportunities to bring about real lasting change. But instead, they allowed Republicans to define the parameters of debate and ultimately kowtowed to them.
Her support for Bush's wars (including the one on American civil liberties) is beyond disgraceful.
Obama has been a supporter of the Iraq war as well, although not as staunchly as Senator Clinton. Now they're both critical of it, but they waited until it was obvious the majority of Americans opposed the war. Talk about political cowardice!
What I'm waiting to see are some HONEST supporters of Senator Clinton. Don't try to whitewash or minimize her shameful support for Bush. Stand up and admit that, like her, YOU supported this insane misadventure in Iraq. And if you never supported the war (but supported Senator Clinton) admit that you looked away and pretended that everything was okay when you knew it wasn't.
Then demand that she be held accountable for her actions. Demand that Senator Clinton repudiate her support for the war and admit that she was wrong to vote as she did.
Until Senator Clinton is held accountable for her shameful voting record, I don't want to hear a goddamn word about how she'll "stand up for women's rights," "support universal health care," etc., because given her voting record, there's no reason to believe that she'll do anything different from what she's already done.

I know that your choices didn't include any Republican candidates, but too bad...
Rudy Giulani is the man for the job. If he takes the same approach to terrorism as he did in cleaning up NYC, then just imagine. The rest of the republican party generates as much excitement as a root canal.
That said, for the Dems, I do think that Barack Obama is rather brilliant and well-balanced. Inexperience may hurt him. Hillary flip-flops too much on issues to suit herself and to make it appear she is with whatever the popular opinion might be.
It's Giulani Time!

I really think that Barack Obama would make a fine president, and would be good for the country.

Edwards and Obama as VP. I hope Americans learn from the Bush father son thing that like father like son, like husband like wife does not always work.

Obama, Hilary is like voting for Osama, and Osama would be someone who would flip America up side down and shake it and then throw it into the sun!

No difference between the two.
I like to see Powel run for president or Rice.
The ones who should run don't.

Newt Gingrich or Condi Rice would be nice.
