1. I still want Edwards, but if it has to be between the two, at least Obama promised
to end the war, and Hillary absolutely will not.

That one issue is a pretty big one, and the two positions are crystal clear.
HC: bring some troops home.
BO: end the war.

4. I want Obama, but Clinton has promised to bring combat troops home in one year
I agree she's weaker on getting all troops out, but I think she's just more experienced with the nuances of governing and thus less certain in making campaign pledges.

I don't think there's a big difference in what you'd get between a Clinton or Obama presidency.

6. combat troops are just a few of the troops. There are huge military bases and pertmanent American
compouns in Iraq filled with soldiers. They ALL need to come home.

7. She says she'll bring them home in 60 days
People think she really means it. Boy are they going to be disappointed in the Democratic Party, just like they've been disappointed that the Democratic Congress didn't end the war. How can people keep falling for this stuff? There is NO hope with Hillary ending the war, none at all. She'll keep the animosity going in the region and with Iran as well. Nothing will change with Hillary.

3. You are not alone.
I supported Edwards after Dennis dropped out. I can see the positives and negatives of both.

The name calling and the lack of civility of both camps here is beyond nasty to me. :hi:

5. I'm with you! I'm totally undecided and am just hoping and praying
that Gore or Edwards will jump in at the convention.

Wishful thinking, I know.

8. I really don't want either
one of them. I will hold my nose and vote for the whichever one wins though.
