12. you and I both know he favored the Iraq War...but so did Hillary!
Here we have a Republican candidate who would be an ideal one to campaign against on one of the single most important issues: Iraq. But with Hillary, she can't because she will look like she only changed for political expediency.

If Clinton goes against McCain, sorry, but McCain will use experience against her...and he will lick his chops at all the Hillary quotes of this primary season extolling experience. Obama has experience running with a theme un-related to experience.

What's more, although we know McCain has sucked up to Bush too much, he has the PERCEPTION of being a maverick, and the media will help foster this PERCEPTION. End result, if Obama runs against McCain Obama still holds on to the independents. If Hillary runs againstl McCain, McCain gets many of the independents. McCain has taken unpopular positions on principle....I don't think i can remember ANY...EVER....unpopular positions "finger-in-the-air Hillary" has made. I challenge the Hillary Herd to point to any positions she has made that were unpopular at the time. Unless your tongues have got you tied....
