She would have been subject to the same criticism that Obama is getting on that - only worse because she is a woman. Darrell

If HRC had run in ’04 she would not have had a chance – too inexperienced then with only 3 years in the Senate. She would have been subject to the same criticism that Obama is getting on that – only worse because she is a woman.

Clinton would have been better off to mount her campaign for the Presidency in 2004. Sure, she would have had to battle Sen. Kerry., and then an incumbemt President. However, her current effort says that she would have been up to that challenge. I think that she would be the incumbent today, and Sen. Obama would be sitting on the sidelines until 2012. Do I think that Sen. Obama is the superior candidate for this time and place? It seems like history is already prepared to make that pronouncement. Humanity evolves. What causes history to move where it goes may even well be inexplicable. But it seems to be inarguable that the mantle of leadership has now been passed from the baby boomers to those coming after us. McCain? Ancient history! Hillary Clinton? History! Barack Obama? For better or worse, where we're at today! In hindsight, Sen. Clinton would have been better off to mount her campaign for the Presidency in 2004. Sure, she would have had to battle Sen.

What a hypocrite ... does he actually expect us to believe his commitment to poverty, when in reality he flaunts his huge multi-kazillion dollar compound (house) directly across the street from poor people ... not to mention his $400 hair cuts, which could feed a family of four for four weeks! Then he waits till Obama is way in the lead, before endorsing him. What weak character ... or, rather lack of character. I doubt his endorsement has any value ... and, anybody who values his endorsement, doesn't have any values. Edwards has always been disengenuous and weak …
