Reply #3: I'm an Obama supporter, but I disagree on the IWR issue [View All]

I think Clinton's IWR vote has seriously hurt her in the primary, but I honestly do not think it would (could) have hurt her much in the general election. If McCain were not bat shit crazy when it comes to Iraq, you may have had a point about not being able to draw distinctions, but McCain is off the deep end with his "100 year war" strategy. Clinton wants to bring the troops home, and it would be silly to pretend otherwise based on her IWR vote. There is an enormous difference between keeping troops in Iraq for the rest of our lifetimes as opposed to bringing them home in the measured timeframes Clinton is suggesting.
