I vote for candidates based on who I think will do the best job for America. I was a Hillary supporter during the 1990's. She has turned much too conservative during the Bush administration, and backed off from positions she used to hold. I think Barack Obama will do a better job at uniting this country. He doesn't change his positions based on the way the political winds are blowing. I remember when Hillary voted for the Iraq War, and I just couldn't believe she'd fallen for that ruse. She did it to "look tough" and it was a huge blunder.
