don't see a whole lot of difference between McCain and Clinton. I think she'll always list right on this. While she keeps saying she didn't think Bush would use the authority she helped give him to start the war (hogwash!) she then goes and votes for Kyl-Lieberman.

<BR> <BR>- Our addiction to oil exploited by corporate America and foreign governments,<BR> <BR>- Our degenerative economy reducing our nation into a two-class society (the grotesquely rich and the painfully poor) as our government continues to outsource our jobs and our security.<BR> <BR>So, although I have lost virtually all my respect for Hillary Clinton, in the absence of Barack Obama, the alternative may cost us considerably more than respect. It may very well cost our children their hope.<BR> <BR>Tom Hansen<BR>Moscow, Idaho<BR><BR><BR><BR><BR> <HR id=EC_stopSpelling> <BR>> Date: Sat, 26 Apr 2008 12:51:03 -0700<BR>> From: tiedye@turbonet.com<BR>> To: vision2020@moscow.com<BR>> Subject: Re: [Vision2020] Barack Obama<BR>> <BR>> I would vote for him too.
