Hillary the prudent

Democrats burning for the inspirational uplift of Barack Obama or the left-leaning edge of John Edwards may not be ready for an authentic moderate.

    Fear of Hillary?

    This question is for those of you who are not right wing plants. What are you so afraid of? The name calling alone is a clue that the dislike and fear of Hillary Clinton's candidacy is emotional and not rational.. Shrew?, Soap Star?, iron-souled? A rational woman who is articulate and able to negotiate within a legal political structure is scary? Why?

    The second question is for all of you. What makes you think that another president with only a single view of his/her world and completely unable to adapt and change as the world changes is a good idea?

    I'm truly curious. Do you want a leader? Are you really looking for entertainment...how someone acts, dresses, looks...what does that have to do with their ability to lead our country safely and positively?
