I am a conservative person, but I cannot stand Ann Coulter. She has great points and won't back down from tough topics, but her delivery is not tasteful. When I listen to talk radio, or watch the news, I want to hear all sides, not name calling and bickering.

UB, the only thing Hillary is tough on is the English language.She can screech it to make it sound like Vietnamese, -on steroids. In spite of the mess of the Bush crowd, I still have a great deal of faith in my fellow Americans to understrand that the least of the conservative field is heads above the best of the liberal field. Don't count your socialist winnings just yet.

It is a sad day in America when this is the best attack you can summon. A woman has a "screech" voice. Really?

You have faith in your fellow Americans that they will all show up to vote for the person with the most soothing voice. Awesome! You sure know how to pick 'em.

How about listing some of the things you think she is wrong about instead of using such a silly attack.

This is the problem I see again and again on this forum. The liberals are saying what they think can be fixed and the conservatives (not all, but many and you know who you are) are resorting to Coulter like attacks that prove nothing other than that they can't come up with facts and figures.

All of these things are reasons I'm voting for Hillary.

My father listens to non-stop right wing radio all day. He loves Obama because he swears the right is trying to tear Obama down but won't be able to. I swear that I think this is exactly what the right wing wants and are trying to achieve -- they want all the Dems to vote for Obama so they CAN make up stories and really smack him but good in the general election. (Swift boat veterans anyone?) My father thinks Hillary is too polarizing because right wing radio tells him this is so. I think Hillary has been vetted and run through the wringer 1000 times. All she has to say is "Can't they come up with something new?" and everyone will know where she stands.

On top of all that, people just loved Bill Clinton and realize that he was a much better president overall than Bush ever was.

Plus, as one good Republican friend said to me "It's time for a woman" and he thinks it's just Hillary's "time." She's proven she can do it. She's proven she is strong. She's proven that she is smart. She's also running as a conservative Democrat candidate (not socially conservative but definitely a fiscal conservative) and that will appeal to a lot of swing voters.

So... Bring on Coulter! I can already see Hillary rolling her eyes...

You should be looking at Hillary not the republicans for Obama smearing.

Name one thing that qualifies screech for the Presidency except the writing of some of her leftist manifestos? Is there one thing on your mind that you think would make her a good presidente'? Well she did stand by her man. I like that in a woman. Here the cherry pickers go again. You defend my use of screech but you offer nothing. Perhaps we will get socialized medicine, hmmm? "If I had known now what I didn't know then" Pleeease. If Ida known now what I didn't know then -I coulda been President. So shallow and opaque as to be juvenile. Come on now tell us what Hillary offers the country? The stage is yours! You can start with Bill as "World Ambassador". What a "Revelation" that could be.

Um, I don't think any of US "defended" your use of screech...

Hillary is well educated, a respected professional, a strong and intelligent and savvy woman who actually tried to help the country (I know you didn't like it, but she did more than pick new china for the white house) while first lady. She was elected to the US Senate in New York and then re-elected with an astounding number of Republican supporters so I'm not sure why you think she can't be President. She has lived the white house experience from the ground floor for 8 years and knows what it takes to actually lead this country. She is well respected in the world which we desparately need right now. Actually, in going over these points you may have swung me to vote for her myself!

Would she have run for Senate if her husband hadn't been President? Probably. She has been involved in politics and Washington since the Watergate years (do a little research).

So, now answer MY questions:

Why do you think she shouldn't be President? Do you think she is unqualified? What makes her unqualified?
