Electing Hillary will be even more polarizing than Bush has become. If ALL AMERICANS want true change, ALL AMERICANS must elect somebody that doesn''t start off there term with a 49/51 percent love/hate ratio, like we have seen for the last DECADE. ENOUGH ALREADY.

I think Hillary has the IQ of a dirty nutsack, but, that said, so do some of her rivals.

Therefore, it would be best for this country...and ALL AMERICANS, to elect somebody who both parties can live with, or we will continue to have a divided country and hatesites like this one.

ONE IDEA would be to require that the winner of the next presidential election must win by a 60% margin, or, BOTH candidates are thrown out of the race, and each party must submit an alternate candidate for a re-election..revote... That would cause both parties to move more towards the middle...to fight more for middle america votes...something that ALL AMERICANS can live with...then maybe we can get some progress out of our elected officials...instead of name calling like a bunch of little girls by the sandbox.

Five pages with no neocon whining about the Liberal Media. I guess they only cry when they don''t get what they want. All you dittoheads put your front paws in the air and bark: "major dittoes to you, CBS". You done good. Each of you give yourselves a treat.

tibu987,

Hillary has more political experience than many others who have been elected President, and certainly more than her main rival for the nomination that Barack Obama. She is in the middle of her 2nd six year term in the senate from NY. She represents the entire state, so how the heck do you consider that ''New York Senator from a relatively unimportant area.'' NY is one of the most populated states in the union! Her years in the White House can''t be discounted either.

Don''t get me wrong, I do think she has some shortcomings, and I''m not convinced she''s the best candidate the Democrats have this year, but I wouldn''t call her inexperienced.

Who is the REAL HILARY?
This story, from CBS news, is more revealing than any story we have seen so far about THE REAL HILARY CLINTON. How soon we forget, or how soon, they hope we will forget. I have not forgotten. The Clintons are the biggest frauds to be in American politics, since Richard Nixon.
Read this story from CBS! The Teflon may be coming off SENATOR HILARY CLINTON%u2019S BID TO BE THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE. This is the THE REAL HILARY!
Have a read.
Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) last week flew into a sudden burst of media wind shear. After months of mostly rosy portrayals of her campaign%u2019s political skill, discipline and inevitability, the storyline shifted abruptly to evasive answers, shady connections and a laugh that sounded like it was programmed by computer.

Let me ask this question. Does Hillary have enough experience to be president?
Hillary keeps talking about how much experience she has.
I fail to see how her position as the First Lady during the Clinton years in the White House translates into the great political experience she would like to get people to believe.
I doubt that she sat in on Cabinet meetings, meetings with the military leaders, international leaders, debriefings by the FBI, the CIA, the SEC, and many other important issues.
What she may have learned is the correct way to brew tea and to serve it graciously with her little pinkie in the air.
Let''''s not be swayed by what Hillary and her backers would have you believe about her experience.
What it amounted to was a social experience and a brief term as a New York Senator from a relatively unimportant area.
Being Bubba''''s wife does not entitle Hillary to bash Obama or anyone else for the lack of experience.
