Pre-NH Blogger Debate - Obama or Hillary?

I know this is a blog about the environment but my choice for the next President happens to be Hillary Clinton. I agree with her stance on the environment, I like her voting record on it, and I do believe she cares about this huge issue. Bill certainly does. He helps to raise awareness of climate change frequently for his foundation, drives a hybrid SUV and they have greened their whole house.

One of the main reasons why I like Hillary is because she understand that the problems we face with the economy, jobs, the energy crisis and climate change can be bundled together and solved with the right incentives from government. Take a problem and create a solution - makes sense. Yet she is the only one who says so and has a plan to do it.


Now in regards to the televised debates this weekend, am I totally crazy, but isn't she CLEARLY the most knowledgeable, the most focused, the most experienced, and with a proved resume of "change"? Didn't she come across extremely well to the public, both smart and thoughtful, highlighting important details about her position on a host of topics? That's what I watched. Yes, she is tough, thankfully. I also watched as the #1 seeded candidate, Barack Obama, was like a parrot, echoing sentiments from other candidates that sounded good rather than stepping up with his own policies and input. Is it "change" for the hell of it, or "change" for the better? And John Edwards, who is obviously an intelligent, passionate person, stands for change as well, but the cowboy mentality of defeating the "bad guys" isn't enough. And can someone PLEASE tell him that every time he says "The U- nited States of America", which was at least 4 times that night, he sounds like a real dope which clearly he is not? It's a turn off.

Can you see Barack Obama meeting with the Russians or Musharraf? I can't. Talk about electing another guy who has his cabinet run the country for him because he has no idea what he is doing. It didn't work for these 8 years, and it won't work again. Also, another great point came from Rudi Giuliani, who said Obama never ran a city, a state, or even a company so how the heck can he run the country? Exactly.

So can someone please tell me why this left wing man of color is the favorite in conservative white states?? I have to say I admire him for making it happen, but I still don't get it. I like Hillary, and her "thighs of steel" too, and I would love the opportunity to hear why she is NOT electable? Anyone? McFly?
