Reply #46: THAT is my point, with one mitigating factor ... [View All]

That has been a point I have made all along, that if it wasn't for BO, she WOULD be the nominee by now ...

Someone posted something in a string I started along those lines and I have mulled it over, and I would say this ...

ONE thing would have rewrote history for her ... The Iraq Resolution vote ...

She made a strictly political decision, played the odds that we would just kick Saddam's rear end and that would be that ... AND, did not want to deal with her being painted as weak on security in this election after a major butt kicking, and instead of doing the right thing and voting against it, she voted for herself ...

IMO, had she voted against the Iraq resolution, she would have won this with or without BO in the race ...
