1. Excellent. Thanks for posting.
I was a Deaniac at the start of the 2004 race, and felt pretty much indifferent (at best) to JK during the primaries. But I really warmed up to him as the general election campaign went on, and actually felt very enthusiastic about casting my vote for him in Nov 2004.

Seeing this video of Hillary, I think a similar process will occur for a lot of people. Not everyone, of course. But I think a lot of the so-called "Hillary hate" will dissipate if and when the campaign turns into more of a conversation with the candidates -- as opposed to the sea-of-soundbites that we have right now, so early* in the primary season.

*Early to the normal people, that is. To us political junkies, it's been going on forever! LOL :D

2. From Deaniac to Hillary? Not me, in a million years. I don't trust her.

7. Me either...
She talks about being unprepared for war, yet she authorized the occupation. Even I knew it was a bad idea before going in so this BS that she was mislead is dishonest.

3. I have not picked my candidate yet but I will say this -
as far as message management goes Hillary has done better than all of the other candidates. She and her staff have just not made any mistakes. This reflects hard work, discipline and everyone on the team pursuing the same goal. In short, she has hired well.

I keep thinking about Biden's assertion that the next President will face zero margin for error with regard to national security and foreign policy. The problems are complex and the U.S. position has never been more dire. As much as I love some of the new young blood in the race I don't think we can afford the opportunity for on job training.

6. No mistakes? Also reflects the fact the media isn't going to report them.
