I’m done with the Clintons.  Bill may have been a better option than Bush 1.0, but I see their true colors in this campaign.  I didn’t commit to supporting a candidate until recently, not because I had anything against Hillary but because the one who spoke with the most sense was Ron Paul.  Now I can say I have something against the Clinton camp.  Perhaps things would be more appropriate.

Or are one of the 8 people not connected to the White House who still believe that invading Iraq actually had something to do with catching Bin Laden.
