7. I don't want to burst your bubble but....

both Hillary and Obama voted several times to fund the war in Iraq.

both Hillary and Obama voted to confirm Condoliar Rice as Secretary of State.

Hillary voted for the war in the first place. Obama said that his stand on the war is "not very different from that of Bush."

Obama (and I believe Hillary) voted to reauthorize the Patriot Act.

I agree both are better than McCain and Huckabee, but I myself, I'm kind of depressed that we don't have a candidate that has the guts to stand up against the wrongdoings of this administration. Bush and Cheney are nothing short of criminals. Their failure to recognize the seriousness of their transgressions makes me seriously wonder how much better they will be, if either gets elected.
