Based on Clinton's new "phone" ad why shouldn't we all be voting for McCain?

[last1standing]

He has more "experience" in foreign policy than Clinton and Obama put together. He's served in the military and was a POW so he knows that angle. His votes in the Senate are very similar to Clinton's in foreign policy matters. So please tell me why we should vote for Clinton over McCain when McCain is the better qualified for the position according to Clinton.

Personally, I'm going to vote for the Dem in November, but I hope people can see how this could easily come back to haunt Clinton if she wins the nomination. If I was McCain's campaign manager, I'd be playing this very ad up till the election because it's an argument Clinton just can't win.

1. I would rather have a Clinton answer the red phone than McCain any day of the week. nt

4. You didn't answer the question ...

... from the original post.

McCain does have vastly more military and foreign policy experience than old Hill.

Based on the premise in the ad, why shouldn't we all vote for McCain?

10. But Clinton seems to be saying that McCain is the best qualified.

What else can she be saying with "the phone" ad?

2. Good point....Yikes!!!!

3. I said that a long time ago

The experience argument falls flat. She has no real contrasts with McCain on National security. She has less experience and her judgment is just as bad as McCain's.

5. Kicking because I haven't seen a single rebuttal.

Is there any reason to vote for Clinton over McCain when she's saying that "experience" is such a top priority?

6. but. but. but. McCain voted for the war in Iraq!

wait......

7. She has no more executive experience than Obama.

Her 35 years of experience is smoke and mirrors when it comes to administrating government,
let alone Commander in Chief. She now regrets the only war decision she has ever made.

8. good point

kr

well I wonder how long you will wait for a response to your question

[Mooney]

9. Someone in another thread said Hillary Clinton had more experience than McCain!

I nearly wet myself laughing. That is some funny shit right there.

[conservdem]

11. I agree. But I will vote for Obama if he wins the nomination.

12. Wow! It looks like there's not a single poster at DU who can support Clinton on this.

This goes a long way in my opinion to show what everyone should know by now. Clinton is employing scorched earth tactics to ensure that Obama doesn't win the general election. This will allow her to run again in 2012. I wouldn't be surprised at all if we were to see a leaked document at some point showing that to be the plan. Hillary Clinton is willing to subject us to at least four more years of right wing fascism in an attempt to gain power. I can't support this.

I will never vote for Clinton in a primary. Never.
