Neither Democratic candidate is preferable to a true progressive.

3. IMO...

...I see very little difference between Hillary and McCain. As far as I can tell with the two of them it is corporate Tweedle Dum and Corporate Tweedle Dee.

7. care to elaborate?

8. Sure....

I don't see a difference between McCain or Hillary. Anti-war supporters, like myself, are going to be highly disappointed when she takes office and find out how hawkish she really is. Her campaign tactics are on par with rovian doctrine. The way she campaigns is a foreshadowing of the way she will govern as President. Anyone who campaigns like bush will govern like bush.
