Her plan involves bringing most of the troops home, and deploying some troops to help guard the borders, as well as engaging our real enemy - Al Queda, in the outer areas of Iraq and Afghanistan where they are gaining in power and numbers. I think her plan is excellent and very realistic. She knows we cannot just leave Iraq without leaving behind a reduced force to deal with the probability of Iran trying to take over, and to primarily deal with Al Queda. Right now Al Queda comes into Baghdad and keeps us busy with small forces while they gain power on the outside. She will put real pressure on the Iraqis to solve their politics as she knows that we can never win militarily until that problem is addressed properly. She's willing to put real demands with real teeth in them on the Iraqis, which will be a welcome change from the limp demands made by Bush to which Maliki repeatedly thumbs his nose. I know many liberals support Obama because he is for a complete pull out. But I appreciate Hillary's realistic and wise approach to the problem.

There is a point in this when it appeared as if she would and that point seems to me to have come too late in the game to gain my confidence.
If elected NOW of course then the Bushes and the Clintons can continue to play gulf and mess with our heads as always.
Perhaps if Clinton were really to play a fife for freedom and Democracy he might let us in on any little secrets he may have that might damage Carl Roves reputation still further.
Wesley Clark/ Obama is the ticket in minds book .
Either that or Clarke should change party lines and run on the Republican ticket.
The rest of them are all a hill of beans so far, the republicans have an opportunity to produce a dark horse that would serve to clean house of the old guard that could save me from either wasting my vote on Clinton or sacrificing it to a non viable third party ticket but I am still waiting.
We’ll know once we have traveled down that road and the trail at present isn’t very scenic, IMO lets hope there will be some better water in them mountains yonder.

If she wants to win the Democrat primary elections, she is going to have to advocate pulling out of Iraq. In the Dem primaries, the extreme left wingers vote in the majority. She won't win the Presidency so she won't have to go back on her word to the left wing kooks.

She has already said no, that she would end the war. I believe her strategy is to have Bill Clinton as Ambassador and bring about diplomacy. This is what has made America a great Country, and we need this done right away.

Hopefully we won't have to find out. All the candidates for president are going to tell you what you want to hear. There're only a few who were actually against this war from the start. And it isn't hillary.

No, she has spoke openly about how she feels about the war. And has expressed that she wouldn't remove our troops from Iraq. That is one of the reasons the left doesn't back her all the way!!

Don't under estimate her, she is smart. A change like that in presidency is a good change. Don't be afraid of change.
I Like to see a woman and a black man or women in the office. I'll vote for them.
The only thing constant is Change !

Rhetorically she said that "If Bush doesn't end the war, she would as of being sworn in". Now one has to choose to believe that in the context of her record. I can think of more credible Democrats to at last end the Dictator Dumbya Big Lie Iraqi Crusade. Down with Dictator Dumbya!!!

Nope...if it were all under her control.
Will try closing bases like her husband did...leaving us defenseless....open borders and hug terrorists......you know, that type thing.
I'll be chaos in USA before long on her watch.
If she's elected, we'll need outside help. When it gets bad....malitia's will form once again. If she gets in....watch and see...it'll happen.
