Now I realize, that not all people are single issue voters (and this issue may not be decisive for some), but doesn't this <http://dailykos.com/storyonly/2008/5/1/222925/7147/47/507454> give anyone else pause. Yes, I can't rule out the chance that she's genuinely concerned about this :eyes:
. But couldn't it also be that she realizes that since there is virtually no expert support on this, she'll take advantage of politicians desire to get elected, by ramping up the pressure on them to jump on this as well. "With us or against us"??? I wish we'd see more threads about this, as much as we see arguing about her intention over the O'Reily comment, because now she's dragging CONGRESS into this, and she hasn't even made a commitment to go back to washington to push this for THIS summer, or to even sponsor a bill on this issue. Doesn't it also seem to be ridiculously short sighted even on her desire to become the nominee because DOZENS of these people she's calling out are uncommitted superdelegates? So I'd appreciate your thoughts about the idea?
