While I give her credit for the healthcare bill she tried so hard for, her three votes in office that were horrendous, for the Bankruptcy Bill, for the war in Iraq and for No Child Left Behind.

While there are other reasons, that's more than enough for me to say a big, NO, to Hillary Clinton.

Rocky Horror Picture Show will be viewed tonight just so I can do the time warp again. To the best of my thinking abilities, isn't anyone participating in election processes, elected to office, or formerly engaged in either a politician?

Clinton has never stopped being a politician.
