It's ethics reform, not budget reform that's stalled in Albany.
No way I'd ever vote for Hillary and I've been a Dem for 30 years, not after her betrayals on Iraq, sucking up to major big-wig firms, indulging in that stupid violent video games conference while she's sending American kids overseas to get killed in the Middle East, and various and sundry other transgressions. I'd take Obama any day, even Edwards since he started to reform, but Hillary? Never. If Hillary were nominated by the Dems, then we'll probably be seeing Rudolph Giuliani sworn in as President in 2009.
Is that a young Nick Perry or did J.J. from Good Times gain some weight.
