Given the dire economic climate we’re living in, we cannot afford to support an amateur presidential candidate who has no record of accomplishment (Sen. Obama). Sen. Clinton has 35 years of experience fighting for the poor and middle class, ethnic minorities, women, GLBT communities and the environment. She was the first candidate and is still the only candidate to establish clear, comprehensive action plans for Oregon’s energy initiatives, job creation, affordable higher education, universal health care, solutions to end poverty, and solutions for the mortgage crisis. Sen. Clinton also offers thorough plans for her first 100 days in the White House including port/infrastructure security, ending the war, and foreign policy related to Afghanistan, Pakistan, Cuba, Iran, Iraq, and Israel.
We need someone who can beat the Republican machine and stop the Bush replica from racking up another victory. That individual is Sen. Hillary Clinton! If the election were held today, Clinton would defeat McCain in the Electoral College because of her lead in working-class big, electoral-rich states. She has won all states that will be integral to beating McCain in November including Indiana. These states – Ohio, Pennsylvania, Florida, Michigan and Texas – are blue collar, swing vote states in the General Election. Obama has failed to make his case in these crucial states.
