I remember years ago how so many people said GW is the kind of guy they'd like to have a beer with. OK, there are lots of people I would love to bend an elbow with but I damn sure wouldn't give them the keys to the White House!!!
There was a discussion on the radio a couple of days ago about the candidates and they talked about the "Likeability" factor. Hillarys' Likeability factor is low and Obamas' is high. Hillary is viewed as cold and calculating while Obama has charisma. JFK had a boatload of charism as did Raegan, but love JFK as I did I have to say he wasn't the best president we ever had. Take away Raegans big tax cut and his glib one liners and what is left? A scandal involving Iran that we're gonna pay for big time one day.
When are we gonna elect people who can do the job well instead of their wonderful personalities, their charisma, how well they speak or how cute they are?
If I were to vote today I would vote for Hillary Clinton. My 2nd choice would be Ron Paul but like Ralph Nader he has no chance.
Hillary has spent 8 years in the White house married to one of the best presidents this country ever had. Don't be distracted by all the moral crap that was heaped on him by the far right spin doctors. If you compare getting a BJ in the oval office with what Dubya has done to this country...Well, there just IS NO comparison. She is also a senator from New York, the financial capital of the world, which is a much bigger job than being a senator from Illinois.
