New Hampshire voted for MORE war

The voted for 2 candidates that voted for the Iraq war
Thy voted for 2 candidtes who voted for kyle-LIEberman...MORE WAR only with Iran
They voted for 2 candidates who will not overturn DOMA
They voted for 2 candidtes who invoked FEAR and 9-11 in their stump speeches.

Thanks NH but no friggin thanks.

We need to work to really change this country.

Hillary found her voice allright, that is until she gets the Nomination then it is HER voice and not the peoples that will be heard!

1. That appears to be the message we got

I was thinking about that as I rode to work today--the people want war, want insurance companies to reap windfall profits by forcing us to give them money for nothing--I don't understand it. I want to dig a hole and bury myself.

3. I suppose there's not much point in pointing out that the people of New Hampshire

might not see things exactly the way you see them? I kind of doubt voters in New Hampshire (on the Democratic Side) voted for Hillary Clinton because they really want more war.

5. According to the Exit Poll demographic breakdown,

there seems to be a disconnect regarding Iraq.

Withdraw US Troops from Iraq:

ASAP: Clinton (41%) Obama (34%)
Gradually: Clinton (39%) Obama (40%)
Keep Troops in Iraq: Clinton (24%) Obama (51%)

Voters for Clinton want the troops out ASAP yet she is advocating keeping them there until at least 2012 -- hardly indicative of wanting the troops out ASAP. I have to ask, were New Hampshire voters as informed on specific issues as they should have been?

6. Or they think HRC can actually come closer to getting troops out than Obama can.

It's one thing to vote for your ideal, but another to vote for what you think can actually be accomplished.
