WEB,
Even if you don't trust Hillary, or like her worth a damn, I do not see how you can support a conservative candidate. As an Obama supporter, you have to admit that Hillary's positions are almost identical to Obama's, and the people she will surround herself with will probably be quite similar to those he would've chosen. Even if she only sticks to half these positions (which seems silly to believe to me, but apparently not so much to others), it is still better than the
zero or very few we will get with a Republican in office. Put aside the personal vendetta against her, and look at what is best for the nation and for the world. It ain't another conservative in office, that's for sure.
If you support McCain genuinely, that's one thing. But to demonize Hillary in such a way is just uncalled for. You sound wayyy too reactionary when you post stuff like this, man.

I also found it humorous that Hillary is attacking Obama on the Iraq war when she voted authorizing it. I don't care if Obama was even for it (he was opposed) at least he didn't vote to authorize it.

I've always found this really disingenuous as well. Yeah, he didn't vote for it,
because he wasn't on Congress at the time. It's one thing to stand on the outside and say you're against the war; it's a whollle other deal to say the same when your career is at stake.
