I think Hillary is getting the hang of things *youtube ad*

YouTube Video
ERROR: If you can see this, then YouTube is down or you don't have Flash installed.


More personal, she didn't feel cold and robotic

I dunno, she's been making some good moves lately, and I find myself going "well, im not gonna vote for her, but ya know, she really wouldn't be THAT bad, and she'd be a really strong candidate"

Too bad about how she'd play in the deep south and how that'd ruin some possible Senate upsets

I'd vote for her over just about every republican. At first, before all the debates started I would have said the chances of voting for her or a republican would be 50/50. Now i'd say 70/30 that i'd vote for her. Nearly all the republicans except for Ron Paul are just fucking retarded. I tried for 5 minutes to think of a better way to describe them, but fucking retard is about all i could do. Some of the democrats are idiots too, dont get me wrong, but they have not walked off the map like some of those other guys.

A lot of the republicans I saw on TV said some things that didn't agree with my political thoughts. I honestly tried to understand their point of view, but in the end I think Hillary is more in sync than what I have heard, even though they are all great people. Also, some democrats I did not think made the points that would agree with my particular views, so I am open minded. However in the end the republicans at the debate were at least slightly more away from my views than many democrats except for Ron Paul

I just thought I'd help from you possibly offending anyone, you had some negativity in there that wasn't required, my edit gets across the same point, but it's a nicer, more civil tone...bringing a nicer, more civil tone is all what we want, right?

If you ever need anything, I'm here for you in our fellowship, my love to you and your family

Is it negative for me to say that I want to punch her in the face?

I think the post
The totality of her views has prevented me from saying anything postive on her myspace group
would be more civil

She looks fake to me. Her first video I thought looked fake as well. This one also looks completely unnatural.

Knew this one was coming. "Gore's a robot" "Quayle's stiff" "Kerry is unnatural"...all the things that usually come out about Democrats from the Republicans. Like any of that matters in any way? Clinton (Bill) possessed all the "natural everyman" qualities anyone could ever want yet the right still hated him. Hilary has done no worse than any other politician I have seen.

It does matter. Charisma is a very important quality for a presidential candidate. It's obvious that she's acting and bad at it, but she tries to seem natural, which to me makes the ad look awkward.

I think the idea of allowing online pollers to choose a campaign song is a good one. I just think her ads look flaky is all. I'd say that regardless of who looked fake.

It has nothing to do with my party affiliation or how much I like a candidate. When someone posted Ron Paul doing an interview in a dorm room I said it made him look desperate. And I like RP.

It's a COMMON Republican criticism of Democrats and it really doesn't matter. If you feel that charisma is a quality you value, then that's your choice I guess...not a very substantial way to pick a candidate though. I'd like to know which of the current candidates YOU think has charisma?

Yes, one quality I like to see is that a presidential candidate doesn't come of as being fake. I don't hold charisma highly on my list of issues, but if they're so lacking that they seem completely fake all the time I don't feel comfortable voting for them.
