==election status not appropriate?==
I would like to remove all the status information about the current election, since we are not a news organization.  Reports of attacks and rhetoric during the current campaign seem particularly unhelpful to me in this context.  Can this article stick mainly to a reporting of facts about her life, deliberately omitting activities ongoing during this campaign?  Even if we cite references for those, we are essentially getting into the business or providing analysis of ongoing, active events--not a role I see as appropriate for the Citizendium.  If no one objects, I will remove large portions of the opening pertaining to who attached whom for what during the current election.[[User:Pat Palmer|Pat Palmer]] 15:09, 16 January 2008 (CST)

"Most" Controversial?

Senator Clinton has made a good many controversial votes. I'm not sure how one can be qualified as the "most" controversial. Will Nesbitt 08:08, 21 July 2007 (CDT)

It's "Most" because that's the one her critics emphasize time and again, far more than any other vote.Richard Jensen 07:16, 22 July 2007 (CDT)

election status not appropriate?

I would like to remove all the status information about the current election, since we are not a news organization. Reports of attacks and rhetoric during the current campaign seem particularly unhelpful to me in this context. Can this article stick mainly to a reporting of facts about her life, deliberately omitting activities ongoing during this campaign? Even if we cite references for those, we are essentially getting into the business or providing analysis of ongoing, active events--not a role I see as appropriate for the Citizendium. If no one objects, I will remove large portions of the opening pertaining to who attached whom for what during the current election.Pat Palmer 15:09, 16 January 2008 (CST)
