6. I agree! Hear, hear!
None of the candidates is perfect. and guess what, none of them is going to be a perfect President. It comes down to who has the ability to win and get most of the agenda through congress and do better than the Republicans. Does any of you seriously think that a President Hillary Clinton would be worse than a President Rudy Giuliani or President Mitt Romney?

I doubt it. So I agree that everyone should stop with the "who can beat Clinton" stuff and focus on who can best beat the Republicans.

An imperfect Hillary Clinton Presidency has to be better than the Republican alternatives, right?

It's like the Australian election at the moment. We've got Bush's buddy Prime Minister John Howard or Opposition leader Kevin Rudd who is essentially John Howard-lite on some issues. No one thinks that Rudd is perfect but we know he ain't Howard and that's good enough that he'll probably win next weekend at the election.

and for those Kucinich supporters, why not put your efforts into getting him into a position where he would be really useful and do the most good for the country: Speaker of the House of Reps.
