If experience was THE most important thing, Bill Richardson would
be kicking everyone's asses. To me, she has been first lady (how does that count?) and she has been a US senator just a FEW years longer than Obama. However, she was never a state legislator.

They have equal amounts of experience in my opinion. She has been in Washington longer--maybe too long.

I like Hillary and if she pulled off a miracle, I would vote for her--provided it was legitimate and not by some superdelegate bullshit. But I like the idea of someone completely new.

6. i never bought it
I'm the 5th most experienced in the race, but Obama is the 6th most, so vote for me.

Never had that ring to it.

Biden, Dodd, Richardson & Kucinich had much more experience.

I'll bet you that there plans are equal to Clinton and Obama. Maybe better.

So why are they long gone?

Is it because of who she is? Is she still here based on name recognition, and not her experience
or plans.

Guess we can't vote for her then.
