<p>I don’t think people have been half as hard on the candidate who votes for war without reading the classified intelligence report in her own possession and brags about it, and then three years later, goes to the Pork Zone and praises the aggressive, hostile occupation of the country she voted to invade. </p>
<p>She’s gotten off MUCH too easy.</p>
<p>"While I am passionate about Obama, and hope he wins the nomination (and election), I have never said anything negative about Hillary. For me, it’s a preference of leadership style. If Hillary were to win, I would support her. "
I’m on record as loathing Hillary Clinton, but I am also on record as praising her conduct as my Senator.</p>
<p>“Of course I’m biased and think more has been directed toward Obama (the pictures today showing up on Drudge, Larry Sinclair, etc.), but I’m sure those who support Hillary think she has been smeared more.”</p>
<p>Maybe Republicans are planting these stories? Although I think Hillary will fight hard and might land some low blows, I don’t think her folks will spread the rumor that Obama is a Muslim.</p>
<p>“I’m on record as loathing Hillary Clinton, but I am also on record as praising her conduct as my Senator.”</p>
<p>Even though she brags about not doing her job?</p>
<p>“Even though she brags about not doing her job?”</p>
<p>I consider her fellow senator to be an accessory to murder, so she gains by the comparison. Either in spite of or because of her absence, her constituent service is excellent. I’ve worked with her office on an issue that I’m a community activist and have found them knowledgeable, efficient and motivated.</p>
<p>ZM: Can you name some NY potential senators whom Hillary forced out by her ‘carpetbagging’ candidacy? Unrelated question- what did you think of Alfonse D’Amato?</p>
<p>Vicariousparent, I’m surprised that you asked. Nita Lowey, who is a well-respected congresswoman was tapped on the shoulder when Mrs. Clinton decided that she was entitled to the senate seat. There is little question that Ms. Lowey would have won the seat and had earned the right to run. Ms. Lowey is not a carpetbagger. I thought Al D’amato was fine. Nothing special, but fine. Better than Chuckie and Bride of Chuckie in any event.</p>
<p>Zm: Thanks. I think you are right, she would be US Senator Lowey if it were not for Hillary picking NY. Well, maybe if Hillary does become President…I know you are not exactly rooting for that!</p>
<p>" Well, maybe if Hillary does become President…I know you are not exactly rooting for that!"</p>
<p>I believe a deal has been cut for the seat to be given to Robert Kennedy Jr. if Hillary wins.</p>
<p>As a fellow New Yorker, I didn’t have the same opinion of Al D’Amato, and I never heard of Ms. Lowey. I do agree that Sen. Clinton has been a very able representative for New York State and, personally, I don’t give a darn what state my senator came from as long as they have my state’s best interests at heart once they’re elected. Many states don’t enjoy that type of dedication even from their native sons and daughters. It’s interesting that the first time Sen. Clinton ran for office there was a vocal group who decried everything about her, despite which she was elected pretty handily. More importantly, the second time she ran she won in a landslide, including winning a very large number of votes from Republicans in my Republican-majority county who were very happy with what she achieved in her first term. The reality of Sen. Clinton is remarkably different from the weird stuff that floats around in the ether.</p>
<p>Kmh, I think she’s a fine senator, but I don’t think Senator Clinton would be a very good Senator.</p>
<p>PS I’m very surprised that you’ve never heard of Congresswoman Lowey.</p>
<p>!!!</p>
<p>“!!!”</p>
<p>I know, I know!! Too late to edit though. Freudian?</p>
<p>Oh don’t worry. You will be happy under her. We have lived under bumbling idiot from TX for 8 years and are still alive to talk about it.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, Simba, almost 4,000 of our most dedicated fellow citizens can’t make that statement. Let’s hope “regime change” comes to America before it’s 5,000.</p>
