You act as if Hillary Clinton is going to be dictator. She actually will have a harder time getting liberal legislation pasted than Giuliani. The Republicans will oppose a Democrat pushing liberal legislation in most cases but rarely do when a Republican is pushing it.
As far as the WOT, Hillary isn't stupid. Losing the WOT or in Iraq would result in her losing power. So, I have no doubt that she would continue both and try and take credit for winning either if that happened on her watch.
There really isn't much difference between liberal of either party taking office.
Only putting a conservative in office will result in any positive changes. And, I will not select option that prevents that from happening until 2016.
How hard will it be for Republicans to oppose Hillary's legislation with a Democratic House and Senate? There really is no way we can retake either house in '08. So you're hedging all your bets on the 2010 elections swinging Republican, which may or may not happen as its impossible to tell what the political climate will be now.
In the meantime, how much legislation do you think Hillary could get passed in the two years before 2010, not to mention the likely judicial picks she'll get?
So what candidate would you support in lieu of JulieAnnie?
The Constitutionalist candidate?
