Frankly, I would have voted for icky yicky, gee say it isn't so, Hillary Clinton had she won the primary. IMHO, she was the only one with the b_lls of them all....

(each election no single person represents all of your views on the issues, so you have to decide which are most important for that time period)

given the options, lies and all, even petty treatment of her military guards when she was First Lady, she was the best of the options available. When push came to shove, I think she would be most likely to do what's needed. It was tough to choose between her and mccain, but the VP for McCain was out of the question for me.

But alas, she didn't win the primary...
