So now not only do I disagree with his positions, I don't like him for his slimy votemongering.

The Clinton's have worn thin on me and I considered voting McCain if it came down to him or Hillary. I went through his web site and read some older articles for research. My conclusion is NO WAY IN HELL. The guys either nutz or willing to say anything to get elected. I think most politicians are like that, with him I'm worried he might actually do what he's saying.
