I think you could count me as one of the not so motivated Democrats if Hillary is the nominee. I will go out and vote for her, to send a message to the rightwing kooks and try to at least turn the course of the country away from the rightwing insanity like basing a decision regarding stem cell research on religion and taking the nation to war unconstitutionally in an offensive manner. Another reason to vote for her is that electing a woman would really shake our political system up. But I cannot say I'd campaign hard for her either. She is a flip flopper and will (like most pols) say anything to get elected. At least she is smart enough that if she did win perhaps she'd surprise us all and be a success. But more likely she'll get too bogged down in posturing and polls to do anything bold and assertive.

I would enjoy a New York liberal vs. New York liberal Presidential campaign though. That would be something else when you consider that to win the White House a candidate had to be from either the South or West over the past 4 decades. Two New York liberals running would really get this country rolling. The triumph of New York values. Rightwing radio would go ballastic. There would most certianly be some conservative candidate that would run 3rd party and get conservative America excited to vote.
