I'll vote for her, but I'm not happy her policies don't seem to include alternate energy sources. She's all for coal, and natural gas exploration and drilling. Not to mention she wants to do away with regulations on small businesses--not all 854 of those regulations are bad. It will be interesting to see which way she goes once she's (hopefully) elected.

She will likely be a reliable vote for us 70% of the time.

A 70% friend is not a 30% enemy.
