17. Actually, I'm all for vetting both Obama & the Clintons
Edited on Tue Mar-11-08 12:19 PM by DemsUnited
Whoever our candidate is (and I say our because I'm still naive and hopeful enough to believe that Dems will ultimately unite behind our nominee) has to be vetted.

That means issues like Obama and his "boneheaded" house deal with Rezko should be looked at. If all there is to it is what we currently see, it's a nothing. If there's another shoe, then let it drop now.

It also means we shouldn't be giving the Clintons a free pass from 2000 - 2007 just because we're pissed at how badly they were persecuted in the White House for their own boneheaded decisions, land deals and otherwise. And I personally believe that the Clintons were persecuted beyond all bounds.

But that was then, this is now. It's a presidential election. They've made decisions, connections and money during the last seven years that are just as important to vet as Obama's.
