Katy,

It appears that you are.

I appreciate that you are polite in your difference of opinion. At this time, I do not think Edwards or Obama would be a better president than Hillary. I considered Biden when he was in. I do not believe name recognition is all she has going for her. I have listened to and observed very thoughtful analyses of very important issues that clearly demonstrate her understanding and command of facts. Unfortunately, if Hillary is accused of disseminating half-truths, then it should be noted that Obama is guilty of embellishing his record as well ie. congressmen not accepting wining and dining from lobbyists - but only if you sit down, it's ok to accept if you stand up and drink. It is clear that no matter what the candidates say, someone from the opposing side is going to distort what is said. I think the best anyone can do is to listen and read and try to understand what makes you comfortable about someone in charge of the country in which we live. For me, I want someone who is strong, articulate, detailed oriented, connected in the world, and respected in the world. I don't doubt Obama would work hard as well, but I believe the learning curve would be steep. I believe Hillary would be effective in working to implement important policy from the very beginning of a presidential term, from the first day as is frequently mentioned.
