Sometimes I wonder where you are going with this. There could be a role for Hillary to advance her ideas in a cabinet position. But right now it is Obama vs McCain and Hillary's positive qualities don't seem to matter much right now. I think an Obama presidency would be more likely to utilize her skills over a McCain one. And I can't really imagine that any woman would feel that an anti-abortion republican in the White House would be a better friend on woman's issues. We have seen what an anti-science president does to subvert the scientific method, to politicize issues like global warming reducing our chances of understanding how to best proceed. I didn't spend a lot of time studying the candidates in the primaries because I really only care about who we have to choose from now. It is hard for me to care about Hillary right now. I hope her supporters don't pull a Ralph Nader on this campaign and give us another four years of republican administration with the furthest right VP in history. > http://tinyurl.com/4ervw5 "Hillary took to the floor of the Senate > today to lay out her plan for halting the economic meltdown, and her > Senate staff has the video of her speech up online.
