Indianapolis Star Endorses Clinton
The Indianapolis Star endorsed Sen. Hillary Clinton for president Friday just four days before the Democratic primary in Indiana, praising her “years of high-level experience” as a senator, which have left her “well prepared for the rigors of the White House.”
Editors at the Star, who called Clinton “tough, experienced and realistic,” contrasted her with her opponent, Sen. Barack Obama, whose “inexperience in high office is a liability,” they wrote.
“Clinton offers a clear-eyed view of the way things are,” they wrote. “Her depth of knowledge is remarkable.”
The endorsement from the Star, the largest newspaper in Indiana, could be a boon for Clinton, who already leads in polling ahead of Tuesday’s primary.
A RealClearPolitics average of polls released Thursday shows Clinton with a 6 percent lead in Indiana. Clinton has been gaining momentum since her victory in the Pennsylvania primary April 22, which she won by nearly 10 percent.
My personal opinion is that Hillary Clinton has more experience concerning the duties of the President of our USA than anyone else running in this race. She has had her hand on the pulse of our nation for many years and we need her past experience as well as her forthrightness after a long siege of questionable actions in our nation. There are many social problems within our country that need to be addressed and none of the other candidates have gone to the depths of those problems nor given any hint of actual plans except for this remarkable woman. The race does not need to be about color, religion or uncertainties about the persons running for office. We already know the strengths and weaknesses of Mrs. Clinton, not too sure about the other folks tho.
AGREE AGREE AGREE I AM A REPUBLICAN BY VOTE FOR THE PAST 20 YEARS HOWEVER, HILLARY’S DEPTH OF KNOWLEDGE IS ADMIRABLE ENOUGH FOR ME TO SWING DEMOCRAT AND SHE IS CLEAR EYED AND TOUGH.
THANK YOU, INDY STAR FOR YOUR ENDORSEMENT
I urge you to rectify your votes. Obama will bring chaos to America…
Big deal! She needs all the help she can get! “Her high level of experience” Give me a break! The closest she has come to having “experience” is being married to a president. So did George Bush have “experience” that would make him an effective leader because his father was a president? Nice try, but no cigar!
I live in Ohio and I personally know a lot of people who voted for Obama here in March,before all this information came out about Obama’s extremely poor judgment in aayaying in this church where a radical and racist preacher preaches hatred and bigotry.We will not vote for him in the general election.HILLARY’08
