While I am a conservative who will likely never again vote for a democrap, I have to point out the reality that President Bush greatly expanded government while refusing to pay for it.
We seem to be marching inexorably to a police state. "Papers please". I find this all very disturbing.
Yes Hillary is a closet socialist. Yes Hillary will try to extend gov't reach even farther than it is already, if elected. In fact, she wants gov't to swallow 1/6th of the entire US economy in one giant gulp - healthcare. Even though Government, large or small, has proven time after time after time that it cannot deliver - REGARDLESS of the party in power at the time.
There is only one way to change this, and that is enough of us ordinary voters demand change, and demand it now. Whether Democrap or Republican, there are creeps on both sides of the aisle.
I fear for the future of the United States.

Hillary was never a socialist. She wrote a paper ABOUT a socialist, in which she examined all sides, but she was never one herself. She was a Republican and then switched to the Democrat Party, long before she ever met Bill. Sen. Clinton is a flat out capitalist, not a socialist. She doesn't want the government to take over parental rights. How ridiculous. Can any of you people who hate Sen. Clinton ever stick to the facts without exaggerating and using plain old lies to throw mud at her? She is not for less freedom for anyone either. Wow, you really have those talking points lined up - how long HAS your nose grown?
If you're talking about "It Takes a Village," that doesn't have a thing to do with taking away parental rights. I've read it, and I'd bet my next advance that you haven't. It's about trying to return to a time when we knew everyone in our neighborhoods and actually gave a damn about the neighborhood children and knew them and their parents. A time when people didn't have to check the Internet to see if a pedophile has moved in on the corner. It's about the air of citizenship and concern we USED to have for our neighbors and neighborhoods. It's about caring for children, ALL children, and giving them the best start they can get in life. Why am I bothering, you don't really give a damn, rant on.

It's a tired line. Just like the bit about Bush being a fascist, Hillary is just being painted as an extremist in the opposite direction. And who really cares about her years at Wellesley? Most college students go through their political idealist stage, or just drink too much and have frivolous sex; either routs are normal and nothing to really scoff at as unique.
Do I like her? No. Do I like any of the candidates from either party? No.
It is an unfortunate truth that is so often overlooked by Americans of either camp that today's parties are both pro-big government, and want to treat Americans like sheep or mindless children that can't think for themselves. The Left wants to support anyone that either can't or won't support themselves, and the Right wants to create more and more laws in an attempt to govern our morals and strip our liberties.
It's a big stinking mess. Careful where or with whom you cast your lot, because the lesser of two evils is not always so easy to discern.

Oh stop it already. I'm pretty anti-Hillary myself, but this is just idiotic.
Hillary Clinton is too self-absorbed, self-serving and power hungry to ever be a socialist. Her rhetoric is somewhat socialistic, even though its pretty mild compared to real socialists, but in reality, its all about her.
Shes no more socialist than I am. Shes just a cold, calculating, political machine. She'll do whatever she has to do to win. If you could guarantee her the presidency on the condition that she spit on a communist flag, shed do it. If she had to promise not to bring about universal healthcare, shed do it.

Yes.
Did you know that she is also the devil incarnate, and that when she speaks in a southern accent it's really because she's posessed? . . . kidding, or am I?
Did you know that she has changed her position on the war several times? She also claimed to have seen the evidence of WMD's, and after seeing it concluded that military action was absolutely necessary (she later said that she never saw any evidence).
Did you know that she's a sneaky, underhanded demoncrat who will do and say ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING to get elected?

I think that's little exaggerated. It's common to see GOP cry foul of Democrats 'big gov'. But it's better if you have gov that can actually do the work and function. Instead of one that is not. Bush failed to create gov that works. Look at Katrina, health care, immigration...etc. I can tell you no one will complain about Hillary's 'big gov' if she create gov that actually function and can take care of its people. Instead of just abandoning them, because 'small' incapable gov is better?
It's difference in philosophy of government. Not about who is communist and who is good or whatever.
