Who in the right mind would vote for Hillary?

Question

If a Democrat were to win, I would rather see Bill Richardson win. He has more experience and accomplishments than Hillary or Obama. Hillary was just a senator for a couple years and did not accomplish much, and Obama has nothing really to speak of, either. Bill Richardson was a congressman for many years, an Ambassador to the United Nations, and Governor of New Mexico. And I especially like how he is not for passing any gun control laws and letting Americans keep their 2nd Amendment right.

Answer 1

I agree. Richardson is the best chance the Dems have at the White House.

Answer 2

I plan to vote for Hillary, who has a wider basis of support than Obama, and would, in my opinion, make a better leader. However, if Obama is nominated, I will actively work for him.

I am sure that many other Hillary supporters feel exactly the same way. This does not bode well at all for the Republican Party: the Democrats have two candidates who are so strong, that the major problem is choosing between them.

I am also working to end the war in Iraq, and to impeach Bush.

Answer 3

Hillary came to NY because she knew she would win here no matter what. Democrats/Liberals rule NY because the Unions run this state. She has done nothing that she promised. Blind support is something Democrats accuse Republicans of.

Answer 4

Bill Richardson, and the rest of them are pro-illegal. I will not vote for anyone who thinks it's okay for our border to remain open and grant amnesty.

Answer 5

Quite a few people in their right minds are voting for Sen. Clinton. Maybe because they know something about her. She's only been a senator for a couple years and hasn't done much? She's in her second term as senator and has done quite a bit. She was reelected to the Senate by a 67% margin, the people of New York clearly feel she has done a fine job for them.

*Served for six years on the Armed Services Committee and has gained the respect of more than a few generals with the knowledge and experience she has gathered.

*Working with New York's senior senator, Charles Schumer, she helped secure $21.4 billion in funding for the World Trade Center site's redevelopment.

*Led a bipartisan effort to bring broadband access to rural communities. Cosponsored the 21st Century Nanotechnology Research and Development Act, which encourages research and development in the field of nanotechnology.

*Included language in an energy bill to provide tax exempt bonding authority for environmentally conscious construction projects.

*Introduced an amendment that funds job creation to repair, renovate and modernize public schools.

*With Senators Joe Lieberman and Evan Bayh, she introduced the Family Entertainment Protection Act, intended to protect children from inappropriate content found in video games.

*Sits on five committees with nine subcommittee assignments in all: the Committee on Armed Services (since 2003), replacing an earlier assignment from 2001 on the Committee on Budget, with three subcommittee assignments on Airland, on Emerging Threats and Capabilities, and on Readiness and Management Support; the Committee on Environment and Public Works (since 2001, with three subcommittee assignments on Clean Air, Wetlands, Private Property, and Nuclear Safety, on Fisheries, Wildlife, and Water, and on Superfund, Waste Control, and Risk Assessment; the Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions(since 2001), with two subcommittee assignments on Aging and on Children and Families; and the Special Committee on Aging.

*She fought to provide compensation to the families of the victims, grants for hard-hit businesses, and health care for front line workers at Ground Zero.

*In 2004, Senator Clinton was asked by the Department of Defense to serve as the only Senate member of the Transformation Advisory Group to the Joint Forces Command.

*She is an original sponsor of legislation that expanded health benefits to members of the National Guard and Reserves.

*Has continued her work for children and families by leading efforts to ensure the safety of prescription drugs for children, with legislation now included in the Pediatric Research Equity Act; working to strengthen the Children's Health Insurance Program, which increased coverage for children in low income working families; and helping schools address environmental hazards.

*To encourage business expansion, Senator Clinton co-sponsored legislation enacted in 2004 to extend tax credits to communities in regions designated as Renewal Communities.

There's more, there's LOTS more. But that's enough to start with. I like Bill Richardson, don't get me wrong, but I think that Sen. Clinton is our best choice for President.

Answer 6

I won't be voting on the Democratic ticket, so my answer is no one in their "right" mind would vote for Hillary. Plenty in their "left"mind will.

And many in their "third party" mind might help get her elected.

Answer 7

I still don't think a woman will get elected President. Go ahead and call me a sexist, but I just don't think this country will elect a female, especially during a time of war.

Answer 8

Hillary Clinton scares the you know what out of me.

Answer 9

NYS elected her to senate twice. It's not as much of a long shot as people whould like to think.

Answer 10

I'm sure that many will vote for her, but I don't believe that she is right for this country, so I will not be voting for her.
