made is, well silly. Obama has had a different view than Hillary on the iraq war.
Unfortunately he was not in the senate in 2003, or he would have voted againt the
authorization to go to war with iraq. Surely he wasn't going to deny troops food and
bullets and flac jackets when he finally reached the senate. Hillary Clinton, John McCain
and George Bush started the war and Obama inherited it by election.
Judgement is important Eric. I think over 13 million people (more votes than Hillary and
more states and more delegates) have made a great judgement call for Obama. The
Clintons started with low brow tactics and the media spun it and Obama ran with it. The
Clintons dug their hole. They are now reduced to Roveian tactics, using national security
to differ herself from Obama, while totally failing herself against McCain. Democrats don't
attack democrats like this in the primary, it only serves to divide the party and give ammo
to the republicans. On top of that, Bill Clinton had less foriegn policy expierience than
Obama when he entered the oval office.
