Hillary = Nader
Advertisements [?]
I've been a Kucinich supporter and an Edwards supporter.

I have defended Hillary's health care plan as preferable to Obama's, but I ultimately came down in favor of Obama over Hillary because he will have a positive down-ballot effect in Texas and Hillary will have a negative down-ballot effect here, but I have previously rejected the idea that Obama and Hillary are very far apart in ideology.

Unfortunately, the offensive tone of Hillary's campaign in Pennsylvania has persuaded me that she's given up on 2008 and is willing to resort to disingenuous attacks which elevate her own negatives at a faster rate that she is raising Obama's because she is now simply trying to torpedo the Democratic Party in November so she can run again in 2012.

In effect, Hillary has become Nader. She is running to promote her own agenda (which some may agree with and other may disagree with) but which has become an anti-Democrat agenda in terms of its ultimate effect in November.

Am I the only one who feels this way? Please let me know I'm not alone in this feeling.
