 | louiethe20th (73) 05/07/2007 | *Update* No matter how middle of the road she tries to appear, it all comes down to past practice and voting record. *Original comment* This is not hard to see.She is for universal health care,against tax cuts and is a major proponent of a woman's choice.

 | Mathew Russo (9) 01/16/2006 | An extreme liberal? I guess that is why she sort of supports the war in Iraq. Hardly a "liberal" (or practical) view in my opinion.
It's amazing how many of the right winged nutbags can sit there and call Democrats names like liberals, complainers, and my personal favorite "Unpatriotic" when we don't agree on foreign policy.
I have issues with Hillary Clinton. I don't think she is liberal enough. She's too concerned with what everyone thinks of her. She needs to stick to her guns and stop playing "New Kid On The Block." She's not new to Washington anymore, and it's time she took the bridal and kicked into a fast canter...and if not, then get off the horse and let someone else ride it to the White House, like John Kerry (still the best and most qualified person to be President) or possibly even Feingold.
"Give me a right winger who can attempt to make a logical point without the leftist name calling and use of "the bible" and I'll show you a pig that can fly." --Me.

 | Drummond (54) 12/27/2005 | Please. She's middle of the road, hence the support from the DLC. In fact, her conservative positions are part of the reason I may not back her in the primaries.

 | CanadaSucks (45) 12/15/2005 | If you think this woman is an extreme liberal, you really need to get out of the house and start talking to people in college. Don't give me 'universal health care' crap, either. . .if you think the system doesn't need serious fixing (and a measure of control) then you should move to Disneyland. . .Hillary is actually more of a centrist than people realize. Sure, she's to the left of center- but she won't be the first Clinton to disappoint and/or infuriate liberals. Having said that, I think the probability of her 'winning' is so low as to be remote. Part of her 'running' is based on the ridiculous amount of venom thrown at her. . .her opponents give her far more attention than she deserves. . .

 | SZinHonshu (44) 11/04/2005 |  This is the top of the list (at least for me). And it's not limited to her because her last name immediately makes my blood pressure increase. I wouldn't vote for Dennis Kucinich, Ted Kennedy or Howard Dean, either.
I'm very much struck by people who get up there in years, and yet, are as invested in liberalism as if they were still in their early 20's. The same goes for Warren Beatty and Peter Camejo. These individuals fall into a category I commonly call "unrepentant liberals."
Why "unrepentant"? Because said persons have been around for a while and have seen leftist thinking fail on so many fronts. How can someone be floating around 60 years of age and still genuinely believe that treating blacks and Latinos like "special" children, government funded socialist ventures and peace at almost all costs constitutes a largely effective approach to governance? During the decades they have spent on this planet, they have seen these fail again and again.
I could never vote for someone who has not learned the lessons that life inevitably teaches us as we pass through time.

 | Sundiszno (30) 03/01/2005 | Liberal yes, but extreme, no. She's adroit at shifting positions closer to or further away from the center, but she's certainly not on the Dean/Kennedy fringe.

 | LanceRoxas (40) 01/10/2005 | Hillary Clinton is very pragmatic and liberal with her domestic policy but tends to be somewhat more hawkish than her very lib counterparts on occasion. If I was nailed to a wall and had to choose I would take her over Kerry.

 | Solenoid DH (19) 01/10/2005 | Let's give her credit for this. She doesn't PRETEND to have conservative leanings. One of my pet peeves is to see people who give a good conservative talk (Mr. Lieberman comes to mind) but then vote with the left. With Hillary, we'll know what we're getting if we're foolish enough to put into office. She may lie about her political opponents, but you don't have to worry that she will pretend to be pro-life or pro-family or pro-Christian. I wouldn't call her an extreme liberal - more like a solid liberal.

 | irishgit (138) 01/08/2005 | I happen to think Hillary Clinton isn't the best choice for public office, and certainly not for the Oval Office. But this reason is just ridiculous. Firstly, anyone who thinks Hillary is an extreme liberal hasn't met a real one, and secondly, last time I checked, being a liberal was hardly a violation of the constitution.

 | scarletfeather (47) 01/08/2005 | Everyone should have a shot at decent health care;that notion does not seem radical to me. I don't think she opposes tax cuts per se, but she may be against Bush's tax cuts--which not only benefit his wealthy friends, but have produced a huge deficit. And more people are for abortion that one might think--they tend to keep quiet out of fear of the deranged wackos who are always screaming about it and bombing abortion clinics. I don't think abortion should be used as birth control, but it should be legal for special circumstances. For the record, I don't care for Hillary Clinton at all, but to say she's unsuitable for political office because she's supposedly an extreme liberal is just petty.
