Hillary Clinton's Speech Was a Good Start on Her 2012 Run

"Julia" Caesar 2008
I welcomed President Clintons' 90s'"Reformation" of the Democratic Party.Regrettably,the freakshow barkers have wrested control.With Sen.Clintons'18 million + votes shredded ,many won in traditionally Rep.strongholds & yet she comes away with ...nothing? This was FIXED! From the get/go.The "smoke filled room"of yesteryear has morphed into a luncheon at Oprahs' favorite mansion .In the months following Bushs'mishandling of the Katrina relief effort, it was decided to promote an African American candidate instead.Sen.Clinton was strung along-to draw fire .This degree of treachery ,at least meets the Shakespearean standard .Consequently,the Democratic Party has moved away from what most Americans know to be good for the United States.My vote,and my trust,goes to McCain .
Hillary convert
I voted for Bush twice and have never seriously considered voting for Hillary... until Tuesday! Wow. She was articulate, smart, painted a vision and I bought it hook, line and sinker. I'm quite upset with the way the GOP has ignored the military commanders and have been reckless with the lives of our best and shun our veterans! It's amazing to me how people don't understand that the military does NOT support Bush. I say this as a wife who's husband serves his country in the middle east and is an Obama supporter. I can't support anyone who's defended live birth abortions so coldly. Obama does not have the history required to build even an elementary trust. Hillary is beyond her time. She foresaw the need for a change in health care. I plan to vote for anyone but Obama this fall and elect Hillary Clinton in 2012!!! This is coming from someone who voted for Ron Paul in this year's Republican primary. Something's gotta give.
HRC
I donno what to tell you guy. I'm 30 and Hillary is the only political person I have ever admired. I have to say I think you're mistaken in believing it is only women of a certain generation who find themselves so moved.
We'd all go to the wall for her, today, tomorrow...whenever.
Stick a fork in her
We have seen the last hurrah of Hillary 9and Bill) Clinton. Thank God.
A BRIGHTER FUTURE
Mccain 2008 -- live though the nightmare
Hilary 2012 -- Wake to the dream
Hilary 2016 -- the dream only gets better . . .
Peace and harmony
Obama --NOPE!
Black and Proud
Hillary has done everything ask of her. Its time for Obama to be responsible for his own actions
Obama is the nominee. He is responsible for what happens. Hillary has done everything she can to support Obama. But her supports are not a sack of potatoes to be delievered by her. Obama has the responsibility as the nominee to win the votes. I am tiring of the sense of entitlement of the Obama campaign!
Who is Obama?
I am an independent voter and it's day 4 in the convention and I can honestly say, I still do not have any idea who Obama really is.
I can sit and hear the crowds say yes we can until they are blue in the face, but I cannot seem to grasp him as a candidate.
I have visited his capaign site online, & it has been shifting so much, I have no idea which way he is wanting to take our country.
Personally I think Hillary should have been the candidate.
I don't want more war as proposed by McCain, and I do not want someone leading our country with no experience.
This is an insanely stupid opinion
This is a joke, right? HRC's speech was brimming with warmth and endorsement for Barack Obama. She gave him a resounding boost. The other comments made about women, yadda yadda - just more opportunity for you to denigrate women in general and HRC in particular. We're women who are resentful because today's women "weren't told those things?" Are you crazy? We're women who "time has passed by?" Are you insane? Nothing could be further from the truth. But go ahead and stoke those flames of resentment! So transparent, you might as well state it right up front. Nuts.
Some things you can't ignore...
I wanted Hillary to be Obama's VP pick but even I have to concede that she tried to DESTROY him during the Primaries. She's a team player now and more likable than ever but The Obama campaign isn't quick to forget that she more than anyone else, has supplied MCCain with enough ammo to finish the job she started. Good intentions aside, the past will always shape the future and this is one past no one can ignore.
