re: Senator Clinton:

Is she the leader of the Opposition? I don't see any clear leader, at the moment. Or any clear Vision. The Dems are sniping from the sidelines, mostly fence-sitting, mumbling support with caveats and limited opposition. Depending on how things go, they can claim they were against the war all along, or claim they supported the President all along.

If she's anything like her husband, she has no fixed principles, and will change her stance moment to moment, depending on which ways she thinks the wind is blowing.

She is certainly not a principled pacifist. At some point, if she thinks it is politically expedient, she may become a tactical ally of the pacifists.

You know, Neocon, given the popularity of guilt-by-association arguments against antiwar demonstrators around here, you might consider HRC's endorsement somewhat of a negative, in some reciprocal sense or other. Maybe those arguments only cut one way, though.
