For The Record.....a concise summary of what HRC's been up to all these years.

I applaud CBS

I believe that America is filled with intelligent people, who see through the cable news network's relentless attacks on this integral leader. There is a growing back-lash which I believe, will translate into victories for her in Ohio and Texas(where she has always led). Making calls to Texas on behalf of Hillary has been an even greater affirmation of my support for her. She has tremendous support in Texas,clearly a place where pseudo-men like David Shuster and Tweety have little impact.

2. And yet she remained INVISIBLE for every big battle Bush and Rove had with Dems from 2001-2007.

3. that's just rhetoric.
How about your man, Obama? Not exactly the political maverick in the Senate, is he? (obligatory response rhetoric)

6. Actually, on the ethics reform issue he was a Maverick
In committee, he was able to put teeth that Schumer did not want into the bill. That takes guts when you have long term Presidential prospects. Schumer is very much in the inner circle of teh Democratic leadership in the Senate.

Then on the floor of the Senate when the bill was debated. In an effort to embarrass the Democrats, looking forward to enjoy the goodies being in the majority give, Senator Demint wrote an amendment that was really the stricter Pelosi proposed rules. The hope was the Democrats would defeat it - and be seen as hypocrites on stopping corruption. A group of Senators who really believe in ethics and clean government surprised them by voting aganist tabling (killing) it - against Senator Reid's urging. This led to negotiations that ended with a stronger bill. Oh, HRC issued a lame explanation on her vote to table it.

So, when did HRC stand against Bush?

8. Was Obama there for ToraBora? When Bush invaded Iraq? During Abu Ghraib?
Hillary was and refused to back Kerry up on any of those matters.

7. I am going to have to throw my vote her way on Tuesday
I have been wrestling with who to vote for since Edwards dropped out. I have been a Hillary supporter for years and moved to Edwards because of his message.

Yesterday, I decided it was back to Hillary because of her history.
