tching CNN!) and they have this guy traveling across the country talking to people about the election. He asks this lady in Arkansas who she plans to vote for. Her response was, "You wanna know who I'm not voting for? I'm NOT voting for Hillary Clinton!" After the first sentence, I knew already who she was going to mention. Why is it that people are so angry at Hillary? She only had to put up with Bill's affairs in office, overcame all of that and became a U.S. Senator, and is now running for President. I often hear people say that Hillary is a B**ch. Why do they say that? I've never seen that side of her at all. I'm going to give you my answer to that question, but I would love to hear what others think about that. Why do YOU think some people are so angry at Hillary and dislike her so much?Well...my opinion is that the right-wing, conservative talk show hosts and media have painted this picture of Hillary from when Bill was president, and people that listen to those shows have a hard time picturing her any other way. Ask them why they dislike her, and most would not be able to tell you; or they will regurgitate what Rush Limbaugh or Sean Hannity said about Hillary 10 years ago. Don't get me wrong...I'm definitely an Obama man. I just don't understand why people are so repelled by Hillary.
Now the right-wing, conservative talk-show host, Rush Limbaugh, is attacking Joh
n McCain for being too liberal, among other things. And now Rush, Ann Coulter, and others have said that if John McCain is the Republican nominee, they will vote for Hillary. Are they serious? They think John McCain is too liberal because he tries to reach across the aisle occasionally and try to reach some common ground for the betterment of our country. Believe me, Hillary is FAR more liberal than John McCain will ever be! That just goes to show you. Any EXTREME group (whether it's right OR left) seem to say "You're either WITH us or AGAINST us." There's absolutely no middleground with them.I think the American people are speaking out loud and clear that they are tired of the same old "My way or the highway" attitudes of the current adminstration as well as the right-wing media. They have chosen two democratic candidates and one republican candidate that are all known for taking chances and trying to work with those who sit on the other side of the aisle. Why do you think there are so many registered Independents these days? Things aren't always either RED or BLUE to the average American. The average American doesn't HATE others who don't agree with what they believe. Like Barack Obama says, "There is no red state. There is no blue state. There is only the UNITED States of America."

Hey bro - I'm afraid the only comment I can offer is that I don't like Hillary either. Even when I try to see if I may be objective - I just don't like her. I like the idea of a woman in the whitehouse and I totally get that they have to be even tougher than a man - or at least appear that way, which most often make people think they are being a B_ _ _ _. Unfortunately, if a man is strong - its viewed as how they should be - if a woman is - they are a B. Its just that she's so good at it - at least in my opinion. I think maybe I'm just tired of the Clintons - and unfortunately she is one. Problem for her is that I'm not the only one that is tired them. It seems the vast majority of the people Dems and Reps alike - want change. I just don't like our choices this election season - any of them. Anyway - wanted to write you - you sure write well, bro. You should send out an e-mail blast to everyone on your contact list when you update your blog. Since you don't update often, this would let people know to check out your update and you'd get more replies - trust me. :) Love you - waiting on your next one!! Carola
