    Actually they do not

    He just voted against FISA. She did not vote. Just sayin'

    Anyway, the problem with Hillary as has been stated ad infinitum is that she appears to be completely devoid of anything beyond her own political ambition. Combine that with the Clintons' "win at all costs and spin the truth any way you want" really just turns people off.

    I was a big Bill Clinton fan and was deeply disappointed when he let the GOP endanger this country by giving them the ammunition to weaken his presidency and distract the country from real problems.

    Of course Hillary can stand on her own (except that she has kind of coopted her husbands presidential experience hasn't she - 35 years you know) but I know that i am not the only one who is tired of the red state / blue state paradigm and people who win elections by appealing to the worst in us.
