Poll question: Was Hillary naïve in voting for the Kyl-Lieberman Amendment?
Was Hillary naïve in voting for the Kyl-Lieberman Amendment in that it could provide the Chimpy-Cheney cabal a legislative vehicle for justifying military strikes on Iran?

2. No, she knew what she was doing. I do not know what to vote, because I do not want to imply she did

not know what she was doing, but I still disagree with what she was doing.

I think Obama's team is naive in saying she was naive.

6. Obama was right to flee DC and hide in NH!
That wasn't "naïve" it was calculated. That way he can whine whichever way the wind blows...

13. My father used to tell me..."voting gives you the right to complain".
Obama, you forfeited your right to complain about this vote.

8. I voted yes. I think she knew what she was doing, but still naive to think it won't bite us all
in the ass.

(Including her, eventually)

11. No. She knew what she was doing. She knew the benefits and the risks,
and she knows this administration better than any of us. Don't think she's a dainty little sheltered flower.

The question is, do you agree with what she was doing?

14. She knew exactly what she was doing.
She wants to be President. If it costs us another $2.4 billion war and the lives of another 4000 Americans ... she can live with that.

15. I voted "not sure."
I literally don't know what she was thinking.
