Honestly, I feel Bill was a big handicap for Hillary in this election. For
someone who used to be such a canny campaigner, he just could not keep his
feet out of his mouth this time around! I really began to wonder whether he
was running for her or against her.
Rae, you're in the same spot I'd have been in had Hillary gotten the
nomination. I made up my mind long ago that I'd vote for her if she was the
Democratic nominee, but she wasn't my candidate of choice. There's just no
way I could in any way, shape, or form vote to continue the same policies
we've been living under for the last 2 terms. I've never felt so helpless
and angry in all my life as this administration has made me feel! I can't
tell you how many times I've wanted to scream to the world, "They don't
represent ME!!!!"

I personally think that taking a stand against some just because he or
she cheated on a spouse will end up backfiring when someone who claims
to be squeaky clean on other side pointing fingers turns out to be doing
the same thing. For example, good old Newt Gingrich throwing stones at
Clinton, then it turns out he did the same thing and, if I recall
correctly, left his wife or divorced her when she was pretty much on her
death bed. Did he lie about it? If not outright, it was certainly an
omission of the truth. Castigating Clinton while doing or having done
the same thing without revealing it is even worse. Bet there have been
very few powerful world leaders that have not been guilty of this,
including many presidents of this country, many of whom are well
respected in spite of it. Just about anyone would lie about this -
doesn't necessarily make them dishonest otherwise. There are also plenty
of liars who have never cheated. Human nature - that's one thing nobody
that's doing it is likely to tell the truth about. Too much to lose.
Look at all the preachers caught doing the same thing, preachers who
probably were actively condemning Bill while hiding someone under their
own desks!
As far as Hillary, my mom commented to me that she didn't like her, but
she did have to allow that she had really worked hard. I guess I will be
voting for Obama, because I won't be voting for McCain.
