1. They "caught" me!
As well as 53% of the Democratic base. Therefore, your topic fails.

2. The premise is true though.
The OP has a good point. "To thine own self be true. Thou canst not then be false to anyone."

Incidentally I don't know where you get this 53% figure? Are we going to have to struggle with Hillbots until we find out what Hell looks like?

17. The conclusion is false
And the 53% is what Hillary is polling at nationally.

5. As a young person myself, I can tell you that there are a lot of us supporting Hillary
I don't think Obama can win on youth supporters alone. I also believe that there have been some polls that say the youth vote is pretty evenly split between Hillary and Obama.

7. Thank you, I think I understand the polls
but I also speak of anecdotal evidence. :) Obama has a lot of youth support, but he's not the only one.

Edited on Mon Oct-08-07 12:19 AM by Froward69
Stepford voter(s) is better. Resistance is NOT futile. Issues would be nice to chat about but HRC supporters aren't about that.... Bill was great but, 1) he is not running for president. 2) even with Bill trapsing aroung the world, you still need sound policy. what is it??? 3) they havent lived together for years. the repubes will use that amung other things. to defeat her. 4) the repubes Wan't to run against her. where as 5) the repubes FEAR Biden.

many of us put a lot of consideration into the decision to support Hillary.

I also find capitalization and other forms of punctuation to be pretty important. But maybe I should embrace this stream-of-consciousness thing.

23. Hillary votes with the Democratic party majority 93% of the time
Obama votes with them 94% of the time, and Hillary also has a more progressive voting record than Obama (www.progressivepunch.com). Don't let the facts stand in your way, though.

26. I think you're mistaken about that, Jason
I'm sure there are some people who will vote for her just because of that, but there are a lot of us who have a much broader range of reasons why we'll vote for her.

38. Many reasons, three big ones:
Edited on Mon Oct-08-07 12:28 AM by Lirwin2
#1) Best healthcare plan
#2) Best chance of winning a GE
#3) More experience than any other candidate, with the exception of Biden

56. ok awesome!
as for your #1 mandatory insurance is not the way. the HMO's helped create the crisis. they will only capitalize. watch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pA8HC_IBhcc&mode=related&search

2)Wrong she is the most polarizing of them all repukes Want to run against her. they know she is the best shot they got. rethugs will rent busses (and fill them) to vote against her. old women, confederates etc. her ONLY shot is if the religous nuts go third party. primary maybe, ge with theocrat, nut cases voting, no way. I'll bet my poli-sci degree on it.
3) you got correct.

59. 3) what about Chris Dodd, Bill Richardson, and Kucinich?
They all have many years of experience as well. Edwards and Obama are the ones short on experience.

40. It's really tough to list them all, and I'm busy with something else right now, but
most of it has to do with her background, and the kinds of causes she's championed . All of the following is from her website (www.hillaryclinton.com):

As a law student, Hillary represented foster children and parents in family court and worked on some of the earliest studies creating legal standards for identifying and protecting abused children. Following graduation, she became a staff attorney for the Children's Defense Fund.
. . .

Hillary ran a legal aid clinic for the poor when she first got to Arkansas and handled cases of foster care and child abuse. Years later, she organized a group called Arkansas Advocates for Children and Families. When she was just 30, President Carter appointed her to the board of the United States Legal Services Corporation, a federal nonprofit program that funds legal assistance for the poor.

When Bill was elected Governor of Arkansas, Hillary continued to advocate for children, leading a task force to improve education in Arkansas through higher standards for schools and serving on the board of the Arkansas Children's Hospital, helping them expand and improve their services. She also served on national boards for the Children's Defense Fund, the Child Care Action Campaign, and the Children's Television Workshop.

She also continued her legal career as a partner in a law firm. She led the American Bar Association's Commission on Women in the Profession, which played a pioneering role in raising awareness of issues like sexual harassment and equal pay. Hillary was twice named one of the 100 most influential lawyers in America.


And that's all before she was First Lady or a senator. I have many more reasons, that's just a small sampling.

27. Are my statistics wrong?
She votes with Obama 98% of the time. The other 2% of the time, she is voting more progressively than Obama. Are you saying then, that a vote for Obama would turn the democratic party into the republican party, since they have identical records?

Edited on Mon Oct-08-07 12:17 AM by Lirwin2
How did Obama vote with regards to a womans right to choose while in the Illinois legislature? He didn't vote, period.

57. another one-word answer, Jason....this is going nowhere, I'm afraid
and...no thanks, I won't click on that link you gave, because it's probably full of shit...just like you; there is nothing of value to gain from it..

Why don't I leave you with this,K? Educate yourself ( although learn to spell first, that works wonders ) then, maybe we'll talk some more..........................................................................





Maybe, but right now, you're boring the shit out of me and this is getting REALLY FUCKING OLD...SO, run along..go on..go.
