Tell you what I'm a true believer in: putting a Democrat in the White House. At this point, we have only two choices. I'm not nuts about Hillary, and I've made that clear several times here. I'm "siding with Hillary" only because I'm *not* siding with Obama. (If he were still in the running, I'd be supporting Chris Dodd.) Hillary has her faults, yes, indeed. They're mostly not the idiotic ones--forgive me--that you listed. And of course I'm supporting *Hillary*, not Bill, who isn't actually running. I love Bill despite *his* faults, but I think Hillary will do a better job in office than he did. Hillary's faults are real enough (the real ones, that is, not the imaginary ones). But in terms of what has to happen during the next presidency, my fears of how those faults would affect Hillary's ability to accomplish the task of turning the country away from the brink of disaster are minuscule compared to my fears about how Obama's faults would affect *his* ability to do so.
