Hillary and Iraq

The Newsweek has an interestind article on Hillary's hawkish stance regarding the Iraq war. This is how the article concludes:

"But impressing the brass and winning over the troops may turn out to be the easy part. If she runs in '08, she'll have to use her military education to stake out clear positions not only on Iraq, but Syria, Iran, North Korea and beyond. So far, she's not getting out ahead. When asked about a strategy for leaving Iraq, she waved off the question. "Nobody has all the answers," she told NEWSWEEK. For now, Clinton is content to let George W. Bush worry about disarming the enemy in Iraq. She's busy enough worrying about disarming her critics in Washington."

Well, I have news for Hillary. She has messed up on the Iraq issue. I happen to like her otherwise, and she is certainly married to a very smart man and a great ex-president. But her position on Iraq has been purely politically motivated and wrong.

I think it will cost her big time in the democratic primary elections in 2008. She will certainly not get my vote. Russ Feingold is by far the best potential presidential democratic candiate.
