Reply #17: I have a different theory

[Apollo11]

First, Hillary has been getting more media attention than the other candidates.

Second, she is more famous and better-known than the other candidates.

Third - being the only woman candidate in the race helps her to stand out.

Fourth - Hillary has done great everytime I have seen her on TV.

Fifth - I am sorry to say that Obama and Edwards have failed to match expectations. They both have a lot of confidence and seem to enjoy speaking in public. But beyond that - neither has established himself as a potential President. Each of them is still repeating the same lines he has been saying since the start of the year. In both cases I am suspicious that they are telling us what they think we (grassroots democrats) want to hear. Who would promise to pull all US forces out of Iraq soonest - when most people understand that it's not realistic to get everyone home in 24 hours. And even if we could - we could not escape responsibility for the mess we would leave behind. A mess that we (the USA) are responsible for creating in the first place.

Right now I am still wishing Gore and leaning Edwards (giving him the benefit of the doubt).

But I am becoming more comfortable with Hillary with every day that passes.

Especially since Edwards endorsed her health-care plan, by saying "it's just like my plan".

CLINTON-CLARK could be a very strong ticket in 2008 B-)
