Comments on: Clinton launches new ad in Nevada and South Carolina

Hillary touots about experience!! What experience?
She has done nothing except talk about her experience, which when one tries to find what she actually did, can only find a failed attempt to take over control of the best health care system in the world. She knew she was in trouble with that when and she then tried to keep it secret. Thank God that it was ordered to be public and the nation found out . It was then that her world fell down around her, and the best system in the world was saved?

In her many tax payer trips around the world she was a sightseer. She had no formal meetings with world leaders, and no political mission.

She has attempted to change history in her books by making embellishing herself and not telling the truth. If you want to know what she was like please read all of Dick Morris' books about her. He exposes her brilliantly. In those books you will see that she has actually done nothing but plot the Clinton's climb to power as well as the rotten side of her character which comes out more frequently than one would lilke to see in a president. It was bad enough as first lady of Arkansas and the United States, but enough is enough. Ask the poor employees of the White House Travel Office!

Do you really expect me to believe that she actually shed a tear over other people – give me a break!

Obama has no experience to lead our dear country. For God's sake the man just got into the Senate and he wants to be president. Is the Presidency that cheap?

Faced with a difficult decision in the Senate, Obama just votes present. Is that the kind of president we want? He has accomplished nothing in his time in the Senate.

Hillary is the Woman to run this country.

As another commentator rightly said what has Obama done for his poor relatives in Kenya? Not much. Yet he thinks he can change America. Let him start small by changing the lives of his improverished Kenyan relatives.

Obama also has muslim roots which he tried to hide. How come his mother married two muslims in a row?

Obama will loose to any republican candidate. With blacks refusing to vote Clinton in Michigan, this race will turn racial and Obama will loose.

Go Clinton!

Are you Anti-Hillary people really serious?? You'd rather elect to the White House a hot-aired, smooth-talker with little to NO real political experience? It baffles me that people will vote for someone with little to no substance, someone who has offered few details about how he plans to make his “changes” or how he plans to bring the country together because of their unreasonable vendetta against a woman who is deserving of respect. Hillary Clinton is clearly the candidate who has the know-how to run a country and who will demand respect from other world leaders. Obama will be looked upon by other world leaders as a "rooky", another American-elected mockery. He'll accomplish absolutely nothing. I think people need to step back and really evaluate the big picture. This election should not be based on who is the most eloquent speaker. Get real before it's too late, before the US spends the next 4 years being laughed at. It's time the US takes its place back in the world's standing. Hillary Clinton will be the candidate who will make this happen.

As a Hispanic American of Mexican decent I agree with the author. First of all I totally agree that Hillary Clinton is out of touch with ALL Americans. Let me say that I am a wife, a mother, and most importantly working mother someone who she SHOULD be able to reach. The problem is it is apparent to the American voter that the Clinton does just have a lust to be in the white house again. Take for example the fact that it is HER supporters filing the lawsuit against the Culinary Union which IS mostly comprised of Hispanics (Nevada) a lawsuit that could disenfranchise many HISPANIC voters. So in all honesty does Hillary Clinton really get what working women of any race are going through? Does she get it at all? Or does she just want the Clintons part 3?

I wonder if Obama is elected as President, will he take the oath on the bible like all the ones before him or will he use the Koran? Is he Christian or Muslim, not that it matters but people are calling the Mormon religion a cult and giving Hucklebe a hard time, why isn't anyone wondering about Obama? Will he really unite the country? I belive Hillary can unite this country more so than Obama. So I hope she succeeds and if she doesn't I will still support the democratic party and their nominee, because the republicans have just about destroyed all of this country.

to : Abiskar,MA my friend if you don't know it by now then let me explain. The change that Obama stands for per my views, people first, people second, people always. We have to defend the middle class, not that I am from such class but it is important that this social group the backbone of America does not fail. My six figure income will do nothing for my life style if you the middle class don't keep it together. I don't mind paying higher taxes so that the middle class can sustain this country. It is not my social class that makes this country great, this country is sustained by you the middle class. Thus, I will tell you, not many of the individual who take trip's to Paris for a few hours of shopping (friends of mine) will admit that. They argue, if the middle class does not care then let them fail, "you should never cure a happy foul" let them continue to be fools for they are "happy fouls" but happy. Reality can be harsh. America be wise.

Hillary! so you are experienced because...?

Again I speak 7 languages, have bachelor in Mathematics, a Masters in Bio-System engineering and have lived in 4 continents in 6 different countries. I guess I am inexperienced. Hilary is not experienced, she is calculating.

If you cannot project your ideas in 8 years as wife of the president it's not now that it's going to happen.

To jay: yes they want experience as a manager after all there not looking for you to make changes. We want change! Honestly you can have it your way after all I am a citizen of the world.

Listen to me, Empires are like people they are born they grow flourish, and die. If America does not get new blood in it's leadership, we are doomed. Well honestly you more than me, I have for sometime invested overseas.

If you don't see the problem with another Clinton, then you deserve what you get.

So that you don't come with incorrect assumptions, I supporter Clinton 2 times. I guess you can say that I am a Democrat.

Hillary had 8 years in the white House and accomplished 0. She has recently discovered her voice after 35 years of experience and will spend the next 35 discovering herself, but you see that is "OK" so you say, most of you have 7 lives to live so you can trash this one.

The Clinton's have no moral compass perhaps they would like to borrow mine on the weekends. The 100's of thousands of death in Rwanda during the first black president "Clinton" is an indication of the lack of honesty; action is taken only when there something to gain or an ass to cover.

Experience, what about experience? The greats steps in Human evolution have not been achieved on the shoulder of experience. People who have changed the world have not claimed to have done so because they were experienced. The contrary is guaranteed, experience implies more of the same, thus you present the argument; you will do more of the same because you are EXPERIENCED in that.

Clearly, in a country with an history of 200 years you have had 10% of bush/clinton white house. I guess they believe that they have all the ideas. Granted English is my seventh language I am only fluent on six other and I am currently learning Chinese.

Obama is hope! Si se puede.

Mensage para todo los latinos: Mis hermanos favor de salir a votar, para Obama pues el es mas como nossotros y sabera defender los intereses nuestros, gracias.

Hillary declared she found her voice at the New Hampshire victory speech and that voters remind "everyone that election is not a game". Really? So what was her voice during her 35 years of "experience"? Only she and her husband thought election is a game to play. Billary will spin whatever to get what they always wanted: the Presidency. Two terms is not enough for them. A third and fourth term Presidencies is their ambition to get at all costs. They use the gender card , the victim card, the race card,... whenever it suits them while complain whenever someone critisized them to shut them up. She includes Bill's Governor years and his White House years as her experience but didn't she deny she was Co-President before? Did THEY have any Governor's and President's experience before they became Governor and President? So their records show that experience was not needed in their case to win. You can only say you have "experience to be a President from day one" when you run for re-election which NONE of the present candidate does. Her ambition to be the "first FEMALE president" is now used blatantly to catch women votes. Is this the gender card or, according to her spin, the winning card instead? Different name, same card!

The endorsement of the Culinary Union which has 60,000 members was won by Senator Obama. What a lot of the mainstream media is not reporting is the majority of this union is Hispanic working mothers– with birthplaces from like Mexico, Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic. That is good news because THEIR VOICES WILL GET TO BE HEARD, AND THEY BACKED THE CANADIATE THEY FELT BEST REPRESENTED THEM. The BAD NEWS is that many of the hotels in order to respect this exciting democratic process are going to give these hardworking people the weekend off so they can have a chance to VOTE. LAS VEGAS HAS BEEN A POWERFUL ECONOMIC MACHINE BUT IT WOULD NOT BE A POWERFUL MACHINE WITHOUT THE PEOPLE THAT DO THE JOBS THAT SUPPORT THEM. The SUPPORTERS of THE CLINTON CAMPAIGN HAVE FILED A LAWSUIT TO PREVENT THIS FROM HAPPENING. It is a shame with ALL the power the Clintons have that they would try to silence the workers by doing something like filing suit. Hispanic Presidential hopeful govenor Richardson IS RIGHT TO TELL THE HISPANIC COMMUNITY TO RUN FROM THE CLINTONS. NOBODY WANTS THE CLINTONS IF THEY ARE SMART, HARD WORKING PEOPLE. THESE PEOPLE WILL CONTINE TO SPLIT THIS COUTNRY ON RACIAL, GENDER, AND ANY OTHER LINE THEY CAN FIND!!!

think of a family or a friend who has sacrified so much and had made a career by helping others finally put up her resume stands before you as she sees a position open and sick the position, wouldn't you give her the position. Let's face it she has a good resume. She is fit for the job, and on top of it she, to the contrary will unite to country, because, when she is against the wall that is when the genie come out, do not sell her short. There is no obstacles that she can't face because she has been through tough time, political and personal; thank God she had risen above it all because she is a strong woman. Some woman say that they won't vote for her because she stood by her man therefore she is not a role model. America, be open minded, beside, hers was just public; it was not the first one and i sure it won't be the last, you are just bound to have these kinds of behavior since you are dealing with people. Imagine if so many women had the courage to give their marriage another chance with the divorce rate so high i am glad she didn't take the easy way out; and for those who think that she stood by him for political reason she could have divorced him, reinvent herself and still run for the presidency; but her values dictated her otherwise you should accept that, beside, this is her life, her personal life nobody else's life but hers alone. I am sure so many of you had parent who were at the verge of a break up and urging them not to for your sake because you are convinced that they can work things out. Same goes for her, the only difference is that she is in the public eye and the media doesn't give it a rest when it comes to the clintons To women and men and the youngsters, help make history. peace.

Don't let the media fool you with the idea of the past. Past is experience. It is the understanding of life. Don't you value your past, your family, your grandparents. it stroke me to see how the media handle the fact that obama was focussing on hillary's look calling her an agent of the past. Well this agent from the past with her husband as president, gave us gave us height years of prosperity and peace throughout the world. There is nothing wrong from the past, as long as one can look ahead and adjust, accommodate and do as one sees fit for the good of the country. I know in my heart, i just feel it that hillary will make this country a great country again.
Hillary will not be an agent from the past, but one for change. unlike others who use the word she will actually deliver because women always do. Like she says, in 92, it look a clinton to clean up after the first bush, it will take a second one to do the same job, only this time better.
It amazes me that Americans focus so much in one's look to elect a president. They elect a president on the premise that he or she can seat and have dinner or a beer with them. It is simply ludicrous. You need a leader, a thinker, a doer, someone who can work his or her heart out. How can someone not see how she is more than ready to do the job.That would be so wonderful to see a woman in the white house because i would know for sure , and without a doubt that the clean up will be certain. Have you ever come to a messy house and suddenly you realize that their is no woman in that house. That is the difference between her and the rest democrat and republicans combine. She is the real deal. She is your girl.
Hopefully on the upcoming debate, we have some good phrasing questions and the contrast will make known.
For those who are undecided, step back a minute, forget all the negative press, the dirty tactics against her throughout the years, allow yourself to see through her. She is not as divisive as others portray he to be.
Think of a family member or a friend, who have sacrified so much and had made a carrier by helping others, and here you are, having the ability and the opportunity to make a difference, what would you do? do you go with the one you like because he is smiling and tell you that he will make a difference or do what you think is wright and go for the competent one.

No matter who gets the nomination for the Dems. I would not , under any circumstances vote for Obama(BO).

He may have been born in Hawaii,which was admitted as a state in 1959, just a short time before BO was born, but he is certainly not a true American. He has had two Muslin fathers and was educated as a Muslin. No thanks! Not interested in that background and past for President of our country (not his country).

Obama's Church does not allow White people to either belong to his Church or attend services. How can such an anti American bring the USA together for all people.

We have had enough sepratism with our Pres. (GWB) with his Nazi background, his wish to be Dictator and his religious beliefs that if you follow any other religion you are doomed . The man has done more harm to this country and the world, we do not need another president who is a bigot with a very shady past.

No disrespect to anyone on this blog.. some of you, I have notice are already doing it.

The Media is biased? No! I would never have guessed. The national cable news stations, I have noticed from speaking with people in my town, and reading these blogs are starting to P*ss people off. I don't even bother with them very often anymore. I come on here to read what is going on. I want informaton about ALL the candidates and all I'm hearing from the media is about Sen. Obama ...okay I have enough information of his "Change" already. What about the other candidates? So, I took it upon myself to research each candidate. I have learned more about them by doing my own research then by listening to biased reporting. I will not vote to accomodate the media... I will not vote based on gender...I will not vote based on race and I will not vote based on what the lastest trend might be. That's the problem with trends, they fade. I will vote on the best candidate I feel will be able to lead this country into a better future for this generation and the ones to come.

My advise to everyone reading this is to research each of the candidate until you feel you have all the information you need to your satifaction to vote smart and well.

To Mary

Thank you for the advise and I have done my RESEARCH on both, thank you very much. I still stand by my opinion that the ex-president's personal life had no bearing on how he ran the country. Case in point...Bush has a squeaky clean personal life and he's run this country into the ground and is a liar. But heah, if you would rather have a squeaky clean president instead of a well lead country, I can see why we are in so much trouble.

Besides Bill Clinton isn't the one running for president. So unless he's done some thing illegal in the last 7 years, I don't care who he shares his bed or body with. He's a man.

Sorry for the repetition – my comments sat in the "moderation" pergatory for hours, long after other comments were posted, for some reason, so I reposted in attempt to at least get something up on the board. I've heard this has happened to a few other posters as well- especially if someone says something critical about CNN, or criticizes the article/author's take on an issue. If this continues, and looks biased, I'm sure that people will bring it to the attention of the local news, 20/20, or some other organization.

A perfect example of the media being anti-Hillary--at all costs.

If Hillary, or onay Democrat "learns" and adjusts, it's called flip flopping. We can all learn and adjust according to the current problems---except, that is, for Democrats.

I have one question for the people who have dared comparing Obama Barack to Dr. Martin Luther King: what has he (Obama) done to deserve such honnor, rather than to read aloud, whatever was written for him , or maybe by him (with a little help) on a piece of paper? Dr. Luther King moved mountains and gave his life for the cause of blacks in USA. So, if you think that you deserve that honnor, then go ahead and run for Dr. King's seat in order to continue his work. We still need people with "a dream" to help us wake up from our many nightmares .

I've noticed that many people, especially young people who support Obama, have NO IDEA of his specific proposals – they are just emotionally swept away by his grandiose "bible revival" style speeches. We need more than just public speaking skills in our next president – we need someone who thoroughly studies problems, pays attention, and develops solutions to our country's complicated issues.

Obama's plan for healthcare in this country does NOT cover everyone! Hillary Clinton's plan DOES. Look at the facts: Obama says he will work with insurance companies to ask them to make insurance more affordable (good luck in that), AND he says that once insurance is "affordable" (whatever that means), that everyone will just go out and buy it - even young twenty year olds with low paying jobs! Yeah, right. Last time I checked, most young people thought they were "indestructable", and would rather go out and buy a new flat screen TV, instead of buying health insurance. Obama shows a real lack of understanding of human nature, when he says that young people will all rush out and buy insurance, all on their own! The reality is that everyone needs insurance - because we ALL have to pay for the irresponsible people who refuse to buy their own insurance, once those people get sick (the hospitals raise OUR costs to cover those uninsured people.) People need to pay their fair share. Obama doesn't understand this basic principle - scary! That's why he needs more experience, and time to study issues, before he could even think about becoming president. I've noticed that many people, especially young people who support Obama, have NO IDEA of his specific proposals - they are just emotionally swept away by his grandiose "bible revival" style speeches. We need more than just public speaking skills in our next president - we need someone who thoroughly studies problems, pays attention, and develops solutions to our country's complicated issues.

I had the priviledge of meeting Senator Clinton in Williamsburg a few years ago
and I was very impressed with her total attention to me and what I had to say. I
fully believe she is the most qualified person to be our President. Public life is so
very difficult but she has handled herself in all aspects admirably in my opinion.
I think she is the strongest and most experienced candidate and will represent all interest's of America's diverse population; mainly I TRUST her to do the job. She does not have to prove herself to me, I have observed her through most of her career and I have TOTAL belief in her.
Stay strong Hillary and know a lot of people feel the same as I do!! Thank goodness!! We really need you for our President.

I'm astonished at the level of hostility and animosity of many of the comments directed at Mrs. Clinton. As an American considering her for president I have been subjected to these same attitudes; however, when I ask for solid reasons behind these outbursts, I find most of these people are only repeating things they've heard not facts. Few are informed of her voting record, accomplishments and experience much less her goals for America's future. It would behoove all of us to spend some time educating ourselves on the candidates rather than focusing on the sound bite of the day. If you have use of the internet to voice your opinion, start first by using it to research the candidate instead of spewing your venom.

I, as a Democrat, do not want another Republican as president. The true change in our country will occur when, and if, we have a Democrat president working with a Democrat Congress. We Democrats, and the country as a whole, wants and needs a Democrat in the oval office. We Democrats will lose this election, if these postings are any evidence. As Democrats, we have to step back and reason this out. It looks like our candidate is going to be either the first black or the first female to run for president. That's a big deal, an historic thing.
The threats being made on this blog, supposedly by lifelong Democrats, that they will vote Republican or Independent if their chosen candidate is not the party's nominee, is infuriating. The only thing that will accomplish is insuring a Republican gets to the White House. Nominating the first black or the first woman is already a risky proposition. Is the majority of America ready to vote for that in a general election? Leave your racist or sexist leanings at home. Stand by your party's nominee or prepare for 4 to 8 more years of war, worldwide hatred of the US, a failing economy and a further declining value of the dollar.

Can someone tell me how long it's been since we last saw Hillary's tears? Time to bring them out, Hillary, so we can all see how compassionate and caring you are. Hillary, you and your husband are both fakes. Maybe after you loose the primaries, maybe both of you will just disappear from teh scene. I hope so!!!
