Hillary comment shouldn't have been printed

Dear Mr. Trainor,

You should have pulled this article or excised part of it. Remarks regarding Hillary Clinton's qualifications for president were derogatory to all women. She does have the qualifications independent of her husband.

Bill Clinton was a fine president. His term of office grows in stature compared to our current president. He and John Kennedy were womanizers during their entire terms. The U.S. sees these actions as more important than George Bush's pre-emptive war in Iraq and the destruction of the U.S. economy.

Hillary has a longer term as senator than Barack Obama. I support her, but will work for and vote for the Democratic nomination.

Hubbuch lacks intelligence and sensitivity. You have control over his employment.

Donna L. Cervini

Interesting isn't it that no one mentions that Sen. Obama's experience is arguably greater than Mrs. Clinton's husband, and patron, the revered president, was, prior to his becoming president.

This canidacy is built on Mrs. Clinton's access to Bill and (her) rolodex over the past 18 years, not on a record she built on her own.

Hopefully, March 4 will be the end of her, and him. Off the stage and over the rainbow to the most mediocre president of our time; and in my opinion, a man (and woman) who wasted the opportunity of a lifetime. They should not get a second chance.

Sen. Obama (and Sen. McCain, to a lesser extent) can do what no president since Reagan has done, create and manage effective change. Petty, partisan battles will (hopefully) end and we can see improvement in our time.

Donna Cervini is a typical liberal -- wrong on all points. Thank you, Amy, for correcting her errors.

Obama's been a legislator longer than Mrs. Clinton. I agree Mrs. Clinton is more qualified than her resume states, but every position she's ever had was arranged for her by her husband. Where are the White House records?

It wasn't about sex, it was about sexual harassment. The Clintons could have settled without the impeachment. They did settle after.

Shame on anybody who would have a person fired or suspended over an opinion about any politician. It's Un-American.
