It looks like that to me too. Her devious ways were shown when she was caught on tape. Working in collusion with Edwards privately conferring and agreeing to have their campaigns collaborate.

Not sure about every one but I really do not care for backdoor dealing leaders.

I make homemade cookies and Iron my son's shirts still. I may be in Collage to better myself, and the life for my kids, but I still like being Betty Homemaker the best.

I have known many women that are clear minded and decisive. A woman brings a different perspective to things, yes, but it may well be time for that change.

Who knows? We will see.

A diffrent circle of women?
I was not aware that I was in a circle of women, actually, I am my own circle of women. I am sure some would find that hard to believe, however, I make up my own mind. I dont let other women influence my thoughts or perspectives on life.

I agree with you, KOS. I also believe that there are men who feel threatened by a woman in a position of leadership and/or power. I also believe that she is being painted as a "businessman's President much more than Bush.

I thought Bill Clinton was a reasonably intelligent man. I'm pretty sure Hillary is as well. But she's a politician, not a leader. Net neutrality, perpetual copyright, spotty healthcare, illegal immigration, exploitation of labour worldwide by american corporations, visible environmental degradation by same, mass corporate consolidation, decreasing competition, wave of bankruptcies caused by out-of-control housing markets, the sheer weight of credit, both person and national, the reliance on an international trade that REQUIRES exportation of goods we can make at the cost of ever-quickening environment degradation and playing a FUCKING dangerous game internationally that will get us all killed.

America needs a leader.

You need Mike Gravel.

Haha. but seriously.

Maybe it is because of comments like "We are the President" made by Hilliary when hubby Bill was President.

Or perhaps it has to do with how she has made her political career. Becoming a Senator from New York, although she never really lived there, foregoing here homestate (Indiana) or from where she had spent and started her career (Arkansas). Some of it has to do with her allowing her husband's infidelities for her own political gain. She stood by her husband repeatedly despite the affairs, so she could keep the name and keep the political machine running.

Those are just a few of the things off the top of my head....

Conservatism, I repeat is not an ideology. It does not breed fanatics....But if you want men who seek, reasonably and prudently, to reconcile the best in wisdom of our ancestors with the change which is essential to a vigorous civil social existence, then you will do well to turn to conservative principles

I think if we could put Hillary and the late-Eleanor Roosevelt in a room together, Eleanor would emerge smarter than Hillary.
