All "Hitlery" jokes aside...

I can not hate Hillary Clinton. She is a strong woman with passion for bettering our nation. Will I vote for her on Feb. 5th in the Democratic primary? No. Do I think she would make a great president if given the chance? Sure. But my faith rests in Barack Obama. Hillary is far too entrenched in the political stratosphere...and I cringe to think of a presidency where she sits in the oval office with her smarmy, adulterous husband pulling the reigns from behind. I'm not saying her run as NY Senator was in part due to Bill, but this is a different playing field. He's going to get in that White House and get that taste for power once again and try to go back and right all his wrongs from the 90's, and we can't allow that to happen. This is about moving FORWARD, not looking behind. Obama will take us into a new future. Hillary, while an amazing politician, will try to improve the status quo in Washington. Obama will obliterate it.

So that's part of my reasoning for my decision in this election. If all hell freezes over and Obama doesn't get the Democratic bid for president, then I will surely cast my vote for Hillary. But up against Obama, my choice is clear. Sorry Bill.


Check out two of my favorite actresses, America Ferrera and Amber Tamblyn, interviewing Hillary outside of the SC debates.



I like her better without her "attack dog" nipping at her heels.
