20. hmmm

Yes, if that were the choice I would vote for Hillary to stop Jeb. Although I don't think Jeb will run and I hope Hillary will not be the nominee.

But, PLEASE the issue is NOT purity. If that was the issue I wouldn't be able to vote for anyone. The issue is about basic morality. Call me old fashion and square if you will. But, it is not moral and it is not right for government to be run by and for the corporate lobbyist whom both Hillary and Jeb serve so faithfully. Still since Hillary represents the left-wing of K-Street and Jeb represents the right-wing of K-Street. The difference is enough for me to vote for the one who will take our country and our world backward less fast.

Also, if you check the foreign policy statements from the DLC's so-called "Progressive Policy Institute" and read some of the mad ravings in The New Republic--you will see that the Republican Party are not the only ones with a neocon fringe. I hope for God's sakes that Hillary or anyone who ends up being the Democratic Party nominee will not be influenced by these evil mad men.
