I am very conservative in my politics- but just dislike conservatives getting into personal and moral issues which is even worse than liberals using the government like an ATM machine (which Bush himself has proven quite adept at during his tenure.)

Libertarian for the win? And I think the "Republicans save money, Democrats spend it" paradigm has been smashed. If anything it should be GOP spends it elsewhere and Dems spend it here.. or something. We all know they're going to spend spend spend.

So given all the excess talk of religion and "family values" in the Republican Primary, I was just about ready to be okay with Hillary in the White House.
And then came the speech where she accused Obama and "others" of a deliberate smear campaign against her.

Every other news article seems to be "Clintons say this about Obama" "Obama defends self" "Obama "fires back" at Clintons" "Clintons subtly hint at Obama's blackness, or some other matter while claiming to defend self."
And not once have I, while trying to seriously look at it objectively, seen Obama actually attack/smear Clinton. He goes out of his way to avoid the stupid media questions like "Is Bill Clinton the 1st black president" and while he makes pointed comments they aren't "trick questions" comparative to "when did you stop beating your wife." Of course, the Clintons just apologized for playing too rough, just as Obama's numbers among whites in SC go downhill. Gee, wonder who polarized this race first... oh well, I ramble on...

In that moment I remembered all the months of whining 10 years ago about the "vast right wing conspiracy" and I thought to myself- am I really ready to hear this for the next 4 or 8 years every time she doesn't get her way?
I can't possibly be the only person who thought that.

Hell, it'd start after the nomination imo. Sigh, I don't know who the Republicans could run that would be better... i'll have to wait and see.
Oh and my favorite Clinton-Obama "not fighting" comment recently was a compliment to "someone" by Clinton who applauded this man's success and said he didn't "leapfrog" but worked hard to get where he was. Suggesting that Obama was the leapfrog. Because you know, Clinton has been elected waaaay more times than... wait. Oh well. Is it really 3:49? Crap.
