Obama can HAMMER McCain on "100 more years" in a GE. Hillary can't b/c she VOTED for it.

[Unsane]

Obama will look like a sage in a GE; Hillary will be in a weaker position. Should she criticize McCain on Iraq, she will meet the same fate of Kerry: "but you voted for it!!"

[Unsane]

1. Kick because I think this is important

[mth44sc]

2. Kerry vote killed him in 04

he just could not make a distinction

It hurt us.

I don't want that hurting us again.

[Unsane]

3. yep

[Ewellian]

4. Hillary voted for 100 more years in iraq?! nt

[Unsane]

8. She voted for the war.

Therefore she must take the bitter with the sweet.

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

5. Yet Obama funded it after he arrived in the Senate.

[Unsane]

9. To keep the troops protected.

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

12. OK.

:shrug:

[LeFleur1]

18. BS

There was one way to stop the war and that's to stop giving the money for it. Obama voted to fund the war. If he starts playing the 'holier than thou' card with the Repubs, as he has with Hillary, that's what they will say.

[Tektonik]

6. If the Repub.s are smart they'll spin him as a war supporter

He did vote for funding for the war.

[Unsane]

13. nope

[Tektonik]

14. yup

[Thrill]

7. BINGO

[zulchzulu]

10. Obama can hang the bloody mangled wretch of the war around McCain's neck

Hillary... bzzzzzzt!

[Unsane]

11. Yep. War monger vs. reasoned sage.

Hillary cannot draw that distinction.

[HughMoran]

15. She hammered it repeatedly tonight

Why can't she end the war that Bush started?

[arewenotdemo]

16. No, but she's only short 50 years.

HILLARY JOINS NEO-CON WAR IN IRAQ

Hillary Clinton, who hopes to become president, is on the Sunday morning talk shows saying that our troops might be in Iraq for some time to come. "We've been in Korea for 50 years," she said. "We are still in Okinawa," she told the TV cameras. Right wing Sen Lindsay Graham (R-SC), sitting next to Hillary during the interview on Faze the Nation, chimed in that even though "Sen Clinton and I are on different ends of the political spectrum, we both agree that our troops will be here for a long time."

That is it. Pack up your bags peace movement and just go home. Hillary has made the pronouncement. She is in sync with George W. Bush, the neo-con crowd, Haliburton, Bechtel....she wants to be president and she knows that the road to the White House has to pass through the gates of the military industrial complex....and the oil corporations....and the globalization crowd that intends to create a "market economy" in Iraq (read privatization of everything there.) Hillary has totally sold out.
