Reply #52: Then you are amongst blackmail artists, NOT Democrats! [View All]

REAL Democrats would make a case for their candidate by EXPLAINING WHY they are so much better than others for this seat, not that they should be picked just because they are "powerful" amongst people that seem to worship their leader as a deity more than someone who stands up for specific issues that they've felt needed addressing.

If you are wanting someone to stand up for you based on issues you hold dear, then in some cases candidates ARE interchangeable, if they do have similar positions strongly in favor of what you want done, and are decent people to boot. And quite frankly Hillary hasn't done a great job of selling herself as interchangeable with anyone else we might consider who we feel would work strongly on things like ending the war, ending corporate dominance over our political process, stopping the outsourcing of our jobs, fixing the health care mess, etc.

She's NOT shown or explained why she is better equipped and "interchangeable" with many of our perceived better choices on handling these issues. She's just "Hillary"! That may be good enough for you, but it's not good enough for the rest of us!
