<p>“We all know what Bill did, but he did a good if not great job running the country.”</p>

<p>The first time the Democratic Party had lost control of both houses of Congress in 40 years was because of Clinton. The balanced budgets, welfare reform, et cetera, was because of a Republican House and Senate, which was in power for most of Clinton’s years as Pres.</p>

<p>I’m not advocating either party but history is history.</p>

<p>mercymom,
I think both candidates have learned NOT to rely on polls. :rolleyes:</p>

<p>Maybe so, but it will be interesting to see how closely the primary votes correspond to the polls.</p>

<p>Like I said, Feb. 5 will be interesting.</p>

<p>“I cannot forgive Hillary for voting for the war in Iraq. She was too timid to attempt to stop Bush’s folly.”</p>

<p>I don’t see any evidence whatsoever from the time of the vote to the time she visited the Pork Zone in 205 that she ever WANTED to stop it, or considered it folly.</p>

<p>“The first time the Democratic Party had lost control of both houses of Congress in 40 years was because of Clinton. The balanced budgets, welfare reform, et cetera, was because of a Republican House and Senate, which was in power for most of Clinton’s years as Pres.”</p>

<p>Bill had to be carried kicking and screaming for these to pass. History will clearly give most of the credit to the Republican Congress for these achievements.</p>

<p>This woman is a socialist.</p>

<p>“Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton said Sunday she might be willing to garnish the wages of workers who refuse to buy health insurance to achieve coverage for all Americans.”</p>

<p>^ agree.</p>

<p>She scares me. She is not what America is about. JMHO</p>

<p>Maybe some women dislike (not hate) Hillary because of articles like this:</p>

<p><a href=“http://www.nytimes.com/2008/02/05/opinion/05brooks.html?em&ex=1202446800&en=71fcb9a2bceb4c8b&ei=5087 [/url]”>http://www.nytimes.com/2008/02/05/opinion/05brooks.html?em&ex=1202446800&en=71fcb9a2bceb4c8b&ei=5087 &lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>and they fear that a Clinton White House will simply perpetuate the rancor and discord in Washington.</p>
