(20,056 posts)She was not my candidate of choice in 2008. I worked hard for my candidate and did everything I could to get him elected. I was a delegate in my state, I did interviews with local TV, I did radio interviews (national) and I did local newspaper interviews. I was a freaking powerhouse of Democratic grassroots action for my candidate! My candidate was not Hillary Clinton, but Barrack Obama. Even still I find myself being irritated by some of the over the top claims I've read here. We debated her merits, but we did it honestly, and this is from a person who made it their work to know her faults and know how to counter them. Some of what I'm reading here has nothing to do with political facts and everything to do with RW agenda. I refused in 2008 to go there when I was baited with it by media sources, and I won't go there today. I defended her back then against RW smears, when she wasn't my candidate and I'll do the same today. Even if in the end she isn't my choice, things like that just don't fly with me.
