If Hillary wants to claim her years as First Lady as experience, then she should release he papers as First Lady.

Other than the The Adoption and Safe Families Act and SCHIP legislation, what, exactly, did Hillary accomplish either as First Lady or as “co-President” in those eight years?

“I'll also remind people that executive experience doesn't guarantee success. Look at Bush-”

It does when when it comes to getting elected. What's that you say? Bush was elected TWICE? Yeah, let's take a good look at that. Obama has yet to be elected into office with his “change” and “hope” gravy train.

DQ-yes some white working class will not vote for Obama, but a lot do and will,

More than enough to swing more than one supposedly safe Blue State, Red.

if we let the basest (lowest) define us we are doomed to 50 more years of Bush/Clinton

Too late we already have, the best we can get is another Bill Clinton. Where do you think all that filthy lucre required to win elections is coming from?

They are the old style politicians and will do and say anything (as they have so clearly demonstrated) to get elected.

Because Obama won't… Please…

I am sure thats why he bashing NAFTA in Ohio and sending his emissary to Canada to let the Canadian Government know that it's just a show for the rubes.

Obama, on the other hand, worked his way up the hard way through politics. He wasn't married to anyone with political connections, nor did he come from a political family. Obama made his way up through hard work, intelligence and good judgement.

I'll also remind people that executive experience doesn't guarantee success. Look at Bush- he ran a couple OIL companies in TX into bankruptcy, he was governor of a huge state and when he became prez he had more executive experience than one could hope for. Yet we see where we are now…. a country $10 trillion in debt, embroiled in a war that he CHOOSE to get us into, and he supports torture (and because he has a lot of followers, a lot of Americans in this country find torture to be acceptable). The Republicans seem to think all this is fine, but then they spent millions to impeach Bill Clinton because of a consensual relationship he had with an intern. Can't this country get its priorities in order? McCain promises to be an extension of Bush…. until the general, when he will change his position to appeal to a broader audience…. and then when he gets into office, McCain will do as he pleases and no one knows what that will be because he is a political chameleon. Just like Clinton.

Obama, on the other hand has been consistent in his positions and has shown to be a far more capable leader than Bush, Clinton, and McCain. Obama is pretty steady in his beliefs and has stood up for what he believed is right. Tell me that you can say the same about Bush and McCain (both support torture) or Hillary.

So go ahead and elect Hillary or McCain, but don't whine when they are President and do things they were against on the campaign trail. They are the old style politicians and will do and say anything (as they have so clearly demonstrated) to get elected.

If you are going to use the Obama doesn't have executive experience and so won't make a good president” argument, then you're including McCain and Hillary in that statement, too.
