The issue raised by the tragedy of Iraq is not who’s on the left or the right, but who is in front and who is behind. Mrs. Clinton has always been a follower of public opinion on the war, not a leader.

— Frank Rich, “Hillary Clinton’s Mission Unaccomplished”

The Achilles’ heel of “The Warrior,” as she is known, is the war. She expressed outrage about Iraq, but ended up sounding like a mother whose teenage son has not cleaned up his room: “The president has said this is going to be left to his successor … and I think it’s the height of irresponsibility, and I really resent it.” She uttered the most irritating and disingenuous nine words in politics: “If we had known then what we know now. …” Jim Webb knew. Barack Obama knew. Even I knew, for Pete’s sake. The administration’s trickery was clear in real time.

— Maureen Dowd, “Mama hugs Iowa”

Personally, I would luv to see a woman be the President of this country. Lord knows it’s high time. That said, I am not convinced (not yet, atleast) that she is the right person for the job.
