You guys need to pull the party back from the left. My parents were both old school dems and wouldn't recognize the party today. Hang in there.

Because most Democrats will vote their party even if the candidate is the worst one in history. To be fair some Republicans will do the same thing.
Vote your party, don't look for the best candidate, don't be smart, that seems like a lot of peoples attitude.

Hillary is by far the best choice, in fact, to get the US out of the unholy mess Bush has made, she is the only choice.
Yes, she comes with baggage, but part of her 'baggage' is Bill Clinton. Worldwide, he is the most respected living American ex President. Hillary is fully aware that a 'booming economy' does not equate a weak dollar, huge borrowing and uncontrolled spending.
The US needs both Clintons working 24/7 to undo the harm that the present Administration has inflicted on the country, both internally and internationally.

Not that I would, but the answer is another question; why does anyone vote for anyone? Because there is something in it for them. Anyone that casts a vote is either voting for the candidate and their platform, or against another candidate and / or their platform. Personally, if Hillary gets the nod, I'd even vote for Bush again.

I don't know. I live in NY and can't believe she was elected and then re-elected senator. She has done nothing for the State of NY particularly in upstate. Her primary focus has been national issues and collecting money for her presidential run.

I truly could never vote for her. To me, she is an embarrassment to women and not the type of leader that I could have any respect for.
She is brazen, power hungry and in my opinion, a person who will do and say anything to become a President.

Because she's a smart, strong woman. With more integrity and compassion than the entire Republican party combined.
**********************************************************
Hillary Rodham Clinton
During the 1992 presidential campaign, Hillary Rodham Clinton observed, "Our lives are a mixture of different roles. Most of us are doing the best we can to find whatever the right balance is . . . For me, that balance is family, work, and service."
Hillary Diane Rodham, Dorothy and Hugh Rodham's first child, was born on October 26, 1947. Two brothers, Hugh and Tony, soon followed. Hillary's childhood in Park Ridge, Illinois, was happy and disciplined. She loved sports and her church, and was a member of the National Honor Society, and a student leader. Her parents encouraged her to study hard and to pursue any career that interested her.
As an undergraduate at Wellesley College, Hillary mixed academic excellence with school government. Speaking at graduation, she said, "The challenge now is to practice politics as the art of making what appears to be impossible, possible."
In 1969, Hillary entered Yale Law School, where she served on the Board of Editors of Yale Law Review and Social Action, interned with children's advocate Marian Wright Edelman, and met Bill Clinton. The President often recalls how they met in the library when she strode up to him and said, "If you're going to keep staring at me, I might as well introduce myself." The two were soon inseparable--partners in moot court, political campaigns, and matters of the heart.
After graduation, Hillary advised the Children's Defense Fund in Cambridge and joined the impeachment inquiry staff advising the Judiciary Committee of the House of Representatives. After completing those responsibilities, she "followed her heart to Arkansas," where Bill had begun his political career.
They married in 1975. She joined the faculty of the University of Arkansas Law School in 1975 and the Rose Law Firm in 1976. In 1978, President Jimmy Carter appointed her to the board of the Legal Services Corporation, and Bill Clinton became governor of Arkansas. Their daughter, Chelsea, was born in 1980.
Hillary served as Arkansas's First Lady for 12 years, balancing family, law, and public service. She chaired the Arkansas Educational Standards Committee, co-founded the Arkansas Advocates for Children and Families, and served on the boards of the Arkansas Children's Hospital, Legal Services, and the Children's Defense Fund.
As the nation's First Lady, Hillary continued to balance public service with private life. Her active role began in 1993 when the President asked her to chair the Task Force on National Health Care Reform. She continued to be a leading advocate for expanding health insurance coverage, ensuring children are properly immunized, and raising public awareness of health issues. She wrote a weekly newspaper column entitled "Talking It Over," which focused on her experiences as First Lady and her observations of women, children, and families she has met around the world. Her 1996 book It Takes a Village and Other Lessons Children Teach Us was a best seller, and she received a Grammy Award for her recording of it.
As First Lady, her public involvement with many activities sometimes led to controversy. Undeterred by critics, Hillary won many admirers for her staunch support for women around the world and her commitment to children's issues.
She was elected United States Senator from New York on November 7, 2000. She is the first First Lady elected to the United States Senate and the first woman elected statewide in New York.
