If there were a presidential election today, who would you vote for: Hillary Clinton or John McCain? And Why?

H. Clinton. I like McCain better as a person (even though he has a nasty temper), but though he is smart, he holds too many extreme positions along with his good ones (e.g., anti-choice, pro-invasion) and when push has come to shove the past 6 years he has supported and campaigned for Bush's agenda each time, with the exception of campaign reform and -- to a degree -- torture of detainees.

John McCain because he's not Hillary Clinton. I defer to Pat Buchanan's famous 1992 culture wars speech for this one. Here is what Candidate Buchanan had to say:

"Elect me, and you get two for the price of one, Mr Clinton says of his lawyer-spouse. And what does Hillary believe? Well, Hillary believes that 12-year-olds should have a right to sue their parents, and she has compared marriage as an institution to slavery--and life on an Indian reservation.

Well, speak for yourself, Hillary.

Friends, this is radical feminism. The agenda Clinton & Clinton would impose on America--abortion on demand, a litmus test for the Supreme Court, homosexual rights, discrimination against religious schools, women in combat--that's change, all right. But it is not the kind of change America wants. It is not the kind of change America needs. And it is not the kind of change we can tolerate in a nation that we still call God's country."

Hillary Clinton. She is definetely smart and has strong personality, all the characters that a leader should have. America has never had a female president so a change will be great experience.

Are you trying to give me reallly bad nightmares?????

Hopefully this will not happen. If Hilary is nominated, I am voting for the other one automatically!

Why? !st of all, she lied to me. Hilary and Bill campaigned all over the place pitching socialized medicine, boasting a plan that was going to finally be pulled off so that ALL AMERICANS would be assured of having quality health care and for EIGHT years they had a chance to make me ecstatic. Instead, the two of them just disgusted me and continue to disgust me almost every time they are in the news.

Hilary sat up in Harlem and referred to the current government running the country "like a plantation" and inferred to all being spoken in Harlem 'knew' what that was like. (That was the most recent ugliness I have heard come out of her mouth.)

She and her husband run their lives as if on a bad trailer trash soap opera. I don't like watching. I am embarrassed for Chelsea, the only one in the family I have respectful feelings for.

I am afraid that she would tick the wrong person off one day and we would all be blown up just because she was in one of those offensive ways on the wrong day.

Those are just a few of my long list of reasons I would not vote for Hilary.

McCain. The Republican women would vote for him, the republican men would vote for him, and the democrat men would vote for him. This country isn't comfortable enough for a female president.

McCain... war veteran... moderate Republican that has been in Congress for a long time.

Clinton is green and untested. She is not YET ready but in 2012 I would not be suprised to see her make a good run.

Neither. I would be reduced to voting for the highly vaunted Mickey Mouse

Neither, I disagree with both parties. I'd vote for Christopher Walken.

I would vote for Homer Simpson before I voted for Billary. Nothing against women, I would vote for Marge Simpson before I voted for Billary.

neither, i'm a felon and can't vote. but if i could, hillary would have mine. why? because she's a woman and a democrat, which makes her very unlikely to turn into bush the third.
