It doesn't take much to convince me that the first step to solving some of our countries fiscal woes is by shutting down the war.

I think we can all agree on this one.

1. Yep..... so let's nominate a person who had the judgement to know that this was a BAD IDEA from ....
...the start instead of someone who decided to measure which way the political winds were blowing in 2002 before taking a position.

3. You mean the one who has voted in support of it at every chance?
How about supporting the candidate who has the most experience and strongest backing of US military and foreign policy leaders?

7. Based on what? Please....site examples where Hillary has used money wisely....

Mark Penn's $4 million salary?


Thousands of dollars blown on putting her campaign up in the Bellagio in Vegas?



Her campaign blew through $130 million dollars from December through February 5th.... .and accomplished being in 2nd place in pledged delegates after that.


Is that someone who uses money and resources WISELY?
