She's trying too hard to be something she's not. I don't understand the lack of conviction she displays. I'd have way more respect for her if she just stuck to her guns on issues like healthcare. Clearly she believes she has the solution. While I disagree, it would be far easier to have at least a modicum of respect if she just said what she believed. And its not just her! Huckabee may be the best of the remaining candidates that actually hasn't backed away from his beliefs and has stayed on message. There comes a point in time where, regardless of outcome, a person has to stand up for what they believe in and let the chips fall where they may. Say what you mean and be who you are! Don't try and be they whore for they entire political system. You'll never please all of the people so why sell your soul and act like you can be everything to everyone. The job of President just isn't good enough to sacrifice your beliefs - its just not worth it. We've gotten so far down the road in this country that the electorate really believes these candidates can pull off everything they promise. Well....guess what - there a 435 people standing in their way and many of them view their job as an effort to upstage the Prez at every turn. Each policy (regardless of how good it is for America) comes in with attachments (concessions) that have nothing to do with whats best for our Country. Its gotten that bad and its a cryin' shame
