Do you think it should've been Hillary's time to shine?

Actually, Mccain's ma man.. But I do find myself feeling bad for Hillary.. and I suppose I think she would do as well as anybody else.. I don't think Mr. Obama has a lot of experience or good things under his belt either.. Basically I like all the candidates and parties, and think they mean well.. it's just who's view and idea for policy I agree with the most [or which view(s) will lead to disaster the more slowly!] - I agree we should all vote for who we believe will do the better job, not because of race or gender.

if we get mc cain as president and maybee condaliza rice as vice pres we will have condoliza and the geezer !hes to old and we dont need more of the same as Bush wich will be what we will get!the only choice is Hillary everyone knows only a woman can clean up after a man makes the mess@

We'll likely get whatever the mainstream media has been pushing for these last eight years..

It seems to me those promises are made every campaign season.. I'm 52 now and I've yet to see any of the said changes in politics come to pass.. All I've seen accomplished is the quality of the society (as compared to before the 60's) go steeply downhill. One thing that disturbs me quite a bit is that Mr. Obama, as well intentioned as he is, is against the "live baby protection act".

There's probably a lot more to his decision than we may believe. Women go through abortions, for many reasons. Sometimes it has to do with what they put into their bodies while they were pregnant, and didn't know, and wouldn't want their child to have problems because of what they did to themselves. The woman knows better than anyone what the fetus or child endured inside of her, whether or not she'd be in the position, or healthy enough to take care of the child. Maybe he's taken this position because he's afraid if he were to support it, then his position on the topic would be grounds for more legislation AGAINST abortion and womens rights, and that is not something I believe any man can rightfully decide. Considering Bush's opinion on abortion, I can understand why he started enacting different laws. If you watch what happens in this country, the moment we agree there is a problem, they try to take more away from us. I believe children need parents that love and care for them, I also believe that people are entitled to happiness and their health, I am also pro-choice. I believe women need a lot more support and understanding when it comes to something so life changing as a child....

I can just picture the book and of course going on the talk shows about it. She'll probably make a fortune of it.

Agreed! (My man's actually McCain, tho as a rule I like all candidates, but agree more with some, of course) - But it just seems to me as though Mr. Obama 'stole' some of her thunder (as another poster summarized it).

Now why didn't I think of that?!

my comment was made tounge in cheek as a joke personaly i am not crazy about any of the choises we have this time its going to be the lesser of three evils for me this go around!

Ah! "arrived on the scene and stole her thunder" is exactly what I meant! - I don't however, as much as I'd like to, put much stock in a new direction.. Unfortunately, I think both parties are pretty much same old, same old.. just a game of vilifying one another for votes.. as to policies I think all the candidates and both parties mean well, it's just different ways they have of looking at things and how to solve things or make things better.. but frankly, I think the parties are too focused on votes (thus derailing each other's administrations) to ever really get anything done, as they both sabotage the other party and efforts and view each other as our most dangerous enemy.. I just hope the people don't get as polarized..

p.s. I kinda think whoever (the media?) forms public opinion the most, runs the country! Maybe I'm getting a little cynical!

I'm pretty much a diehard moderate conservative (but almost always like all candidates and both parties too) but still I can't help getting caught up in the race between Hillary and Mr. Obama.. and I like Hillary much better and am rooting for her to come out the winning presidential candidate, besides I figure Mr. Obama has a lot of time yet to run again, whereas Hillary likely doesn't, or so many say..

I hear she has done a good job in New York.I would be proud to have her as a senator in my state of Washington. Remember that she is only human and allowed to make some mistakes as we all are.I don't pay any attention to all the character assasinations of Hillary,Bosnia whatever.I still think she would make the best President we have had in a long time.

You are very right, there is only one Hillary Clinton, for which I am very happy. And I have never been opposed to seeing a female president. However, like previous posters you need to look at the bigger picture. Not whether you think a "woman" will do a better job as president than a "man", but rather whether the PERSON will do a better job. I personally do not see senator Clinton doing a good job as president. She reminds me too much of John Kerry with his flip flops on his policies and his relying on stardom to win him votes. Senator Clinton is sneaky, she had to run for a senate seat in a state she never had anything to do with prior to her running. I grew up in the state of New York, and personally i am embarrassed to admit that I am from there given that she got elected to our law making body from my state. She lies to make herself look better, just look at her comments about "dodging sniper fire" in Bosnia.
