pennsylvania- it just makes sense
April 21, 2008 by Betmo
for any of you undecideds in pennsylvania- here’s a good assessment of how to pick:
“THERE IS a way to match Clinton’s and Obama’s performances on a relatively equal playing field: their campaigns.
A candidate’s campaign may be the best indicator of how she or he will govern. If so, an Obama administration would be well-managed, inclusive and astonishingly broad-based. It would make good use of technology and communicate a message of unity and, yes, hope.
It would not be content with eking out slim victories by playing to the narrow interests of the swing voters of the moment while leaving the rest of the country as deeply divided as ever. Instead, an Obama administration would seek to expand the number of Americans who believe that they have a personal stake in our collective future - and that they have the power to change things.
It would motivate them to hold their representatives accountable for making it happen. That is, after all, the only way to get us out of Iraq, to address global warming, to make us energy-independent. It’s the only way to resist the forces arrayed against providing universal health care, rebuilding our infrastructure and returning our schools to world-class status. It’s the only way to give our children the means to compete with children in other parts of the world who are healthier, better-educated and have more opportunities than many of our own.”

One of the best posts I have read in months. And so true. Hilary, by her very nature, divides people. Her camaign and any administration she were to head up would be no different.
Well said in every way.

I’m in the Obama camp, but we were laughing about how in the 21st century, candidates can tout they are “less tainted”.
Hillary is old school. she plays the games & is in the thick of the lobbiest money. Basically the same old shit. Hill’s campaign has been nothing but nasty.
Why not just tout her attirbutes rahter than spend all her time going for the jugular of her opponent.
Plus the other thing about Hillary is she has never said her vote for the war was wrong. She will sayshe was given bad information, but never admits being wrong.
