    Here's the thing...

    Hillary is SMART! That is important. More important than her being likable. So many people voted for Bush because they "liked" him. Look where that has gotten us. In the end, all that matters is what kind of president she will make. For those who have read her book you know that she is very knowledgable about foreign policy, she has travelled everywhere and her experience in the Senate is invaluable too. And people have to admit - even if you don' t like him - having Bill there to clean up the mess that Bush has created with foreign countries - would be a HUGE asset. They still love BILL! I can't say that I love Hillary but this time around, after the disaster that is Bush, it is time for Americans to make an intelligent decision. There is too much riding on this election to elect someone they "like." We must elect the best person for the job.
