10. I don't consider her a candidate that addresses my core issue concerns
You keep wanting to frame that as hate, or a personal dislike, but its just business.
I'm a liberal. Her stand is what you like to call "centrist", but to me is the far right of the democratic party.

the issues that are important to me are these:
I'm against war in general, and the "war on terror" specifically.
I am against the US being in the business of preemptive invasion and torture of detainees.
I"m against the elimination of habeas corpus
I"m against the evaporation of civil rights and coopting of the DOJ by idealogues.
I"m against sacrificing social programs to reward corporations for outsourcing jobs
I"m against her (and edward's) health care plan that funnels monies to the main problem in healthcare today: the insurance for profit industry.
I"m against Big Pharma and their exploitation of the FDC
I"m against the PNAC plan of empire and hegemony in the middle east.
I"m against raping other countries for their resources and claiming its a humanitarian motivation.

IMHO, Clinton is either ENOUGH for these things I'm against or not strong enough in her objection to them.
