29. why? Seeing your John Kerry links
I think there's some hypocrisy here, if you're basing it on the war vote. You see, John Kerry also voted for Iraq for the same reasons as Hillary says. Hillary has been alongside a President dealing with international figures in her life, and yes, being the kind of First Lady she was, as opposed to the rest of them, absolutely counts for something. It will also shore up more Dem base for the future, as we sure wouldn't want to leave her 18 million primary voters out in the cold. More importantly, she's also far more articulate than Kerry, which matters in diplomacy. We can't afford Kerry gaffes like he did in 2004 when dealing with Kim Jong Il, Ahmadinejad, et al. Face it, the Clintons not only have been a force in Dem politics, but will continue to be so. Kerry is a nothing.
