Clinton's experience is twice as much Senate experience than Obama, three decades of professional activism, and everyone knows it will be a Billary presidency. Attacking her experience only will draw attention to all of those.

1. Why do you keep pushing this theme? It's not a winning one. I don't want Bill back.

4. And even if you did, it says that Hillary can't stand on her own.
It's dumb.

9. good thing to
if she is going to be president I hope bill advises her well. Don't want anyone else like GW getting by all those years of experiance to fool her with another IWR. 30 years and she can't tell when a bill means military action it means military action.

23. Sad that the best reason you can think of to support your candidate
revolves around someone who isn't your candidate.

7. I've often thought that anyone who thinks.....


that the 1st lady does not have the ear or gives advice to the president is frankly nuts. Of course they do.

Presidents have to keep their feet grounded and will often ask in private their spouses feeling on it or more accurately they will probably be told their spouses view on it.

So yes Hilary did have influence in Bills Presidency, same way that Bill will have great influence on hers if she makes it.

You dont just elect a President, you elect a first Family and they do have influence.

21. Who had who's ear when she, as a Senator, was in DC
and he was living in NYC?

This is a political show they're doing. They haven't lived together as a couple for years. If she's elected, you really think there will be a lot of pillow-talk?

13. Two things - voters want CHANGE over experience by a 2 to1 margin...
And you're probably not gonna change anyone's mind in here.

Either will I...

I'd be thrilled with either Edwards or Obama. Both have a far better chance to win than Billary.

Hillary = an ass kicking in the GE.

24. Nor will you ever, for a gossip site. It's been debunked repeatedly, and you said you'd apologize

16. I believe it was Billary who was attacking Obama's lack of experience.
Edited on Tue Jan-15-08 01:48 PM by goodhue
To which the simple response that Obama has more years of elected office than Hillary is hardly an attack, but rather a defense.

17. No time to educate you today
but let me make this clear; Hillary will not have Bill ever look over her shoulder. Never...Those boundaries are clearly marked.
