I have read them and there is nothing illegal in them that I saw. That is why I said please cite the law that W broke. I mean you asserted the war was "illegal" Was it immoral, unjust, ill advised, poorly executed, or some other non legal term - I think it was. But, I find no support for it being "illegal." I mean even Obama said that he thought he had been wrong about the war in Iraq when he saw the statute of SH toppled. Sadly. W and co. botched those dreams.

The only reason I asked that is because you seem not to want to hear anything bad about Obama or his campaign because you think it will get McCain elected, which you said would leave:

I am at a loss to see why you would not choose Hillary over that scenario. I get that you may question (is that a better term? ) her for her vote to give W the authority to go to war in Iraq. But, clearly she is, despite her faults and that, in your opinion, glaring fault, not in any way supportive of the McCain scenario you cited. Moreover, you fault her supporters for questioning whether they would vote for Obama when you clearly felt the same way about HC at one time

As for those stats, I think they are outdated. I think now that the dust has settled, lost Hillary supports will either not vote or will vote for Obama, the latter scenario being the vast majority IMO. I support this by noting Hillary is campaigning for Obama and those 18,000,000 or so people will be swayed by that. Is there a more recent poll conducted in, say, the last two weeks?
