A Question for Democrats

Are you really sure you want to nominate Hillary?

Read this and then answer.

You can't nominate someone who supported the war, and even worse, still thinks it was a good move to support the war.

Rather than concede that her support for the war was a mistake, on Thursday Clinton launched into an elaborate re-litigation of her reasons for backing the war (contradicting her first point) before rejecting the idea that she was naive to trust Bush. All this came, somehow, in the service of pledging, with caveats, to bring "nearly all" U.S. troops home from Iraq "within a year" of her election. If there was a consistent thread, it was that Clinton believes herself to have always been right on Iraq—both when she was for the war and now that she is against it.

None of this should be surprising when considering Clinton’s evolution on Iraq. Indeed, Clinton set herself up to run for president as both a pro-war and an anti-war candidate—depending on the contingencies of the war and the politics of the moment.

I've read this script before.

It doesn't end well.
