To the people of Ohio and Texas,

You have a very important responsibility on March 4.  You have a choice to either vote as a truly informed voter who has taken time to look at the issues or a voter who is influenced by unfounded momentum and the media.  

I watched the MSNBC debate this evening between Senators Clinton and Obama.  To me, it is striking how much more she understands every single issue from every single angle.  I know that Senator Clinton isn't able to go as in depth as she would like on certain issues, such as foreign policy, mostly because of party unity.  I wish she would.  If Senator Obama is the nominee you know that John McCain certainly will.

I don't think Senator Obama's stance of never supporting the Iraq war is going to hold up against the republicans.  Senator Clinton touched on the reason a bit tonight, but didn't go too far into it - most likely out of fear of looking too much like a bitch.  She's either too weak or too cold hearted; the poor thing is attacked for whatever she says or does.  Anyway, she stated that when it was time to vote to authorize the Iraq war, Senator Obama was not a sitting senator.  He did not have the responsibility to vote (not that he would have as his record shows).  And as David Gregory points out - McCain is going to focus on this.  Senator Obama did not have access to intelligence, albeit corrupt by the Bush administration.  I wish that people would think back to 2002.  It is safe to say that sadly the majority of the American people thought that Iraq and Saddam had something to do with 9-11.  The Bush administration used its normal tactics of deception to scare the crap out of Americans, and sold the idea that we had to go into Iraq.  

It is easy for Senator Obama to say years later that he never supported the war.  Well, I would suggest that were he a sitting senator in 2002, he most likely would have voted for the war - as most did.  

Is this really his stance on foreign policy?  His judgement that we shouldn't have gone into Iraq?  You have a candidate in Hillary Clinton who has traveled the world and gained the respect of its leaders.  She understands, on every level, what needs to be done and how to get it done.  She understands how dangerous the eastern region is, while Senator Obama's plans seem to only make it more dangerous.

This is no time to vote for another candidate that is not prepared to be president of the most powerful nation in the world.  We've tried that - we've been down this road for 8 years, and I do not want to go down it again.

Well, I could ramble on and on and on and on for literally ever about this.  I will however stop and hope that tomorrow brings better news.  

I will leave you with this quote from Gerald Corey. "Although hope can be a therapeutic factor that leads to change, unrealistic hope can pave the way for a pattern of failures."
