True colors are shining through. He is a jerk, Senator "Hope".

So if Clinton did this then it would be ATTACKS but If Obama does it then its JABS?

Come on CNN!!!!!

Well at least he sticks to the issues when he "jabs" (great one-sided choice of words). I wonder when the American people are going to demand that Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton and John McCain challenge BARACK OBAMA on his economic, health, and foreign policy plans instead of just using the recycled "he gives great speeches". They probably never will because his platform is rock solid

Some much for CHANGE - the brother is is just another politician. Obama is a myth!

He knows his momentum is losing a little steam and he's again going for erroneous attacks. This man is all talk and no action. C'mon Barack, tell us why you gave oil companies $6 billion in subsidies on a bill deemed the summation of all possible lobbies? But, of course, you're a politician of change. Sounds like the same old Washington to me…

Give the people a little ounce of honesty and maybe you can build some credibility with those who can see through "wanna-be change" facade…

?

Well that was just extremely intelligent of Barack Obama and shows how he will continue to strategically defeat HRC.

(1) He was scheduled to speak AFTER her.
(2) She missed her opportunity to try and critique Barack Obama on what she sees as faults in his plans, and she missed it.
(3) He takes this as an opportunity in front of many Wisconsonites and the HRC campaign itself to point out specifically what his plans are and to shine a spotlight on all of the flaws in the HRC campaign

Well Played!!
OBAMA 2008

Whoever's idea it was to have Senator Obama speak second is brilliant!

Come on Barack! If you hold Hillary accountable for what she does and what she says, she stands no chance.

It is a sign of true desperation to see the negative attacks against you on a personal level. The distortions of your record are less an issue becuase you have a forum to set the record straight.

Barack Obama '08!

Wow, He came out swinging in that speech. Let's see what Clinton's next campaign slogan is after he destroyed the 'solutions' claim.

IT^S EASY TO CRITICIZE HILLARY CLINTON SINCE SHE DID TRY TO DO SOMETHING FOR THE PEOPLE:………….

BUT OBAMA NEVER DID ANYTHING FOR THE PEOPLE DON^T HAVE RIGHT TO CRITICIZE OTHERS.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OBAMA IS A HYPOCRITE ………………

dirty dirty dirty man

The longer this campaign runs the more Senator Obama exposes the flip flop of Hillary Clintons Senate and First lady years. He clearly Has Hillary on the run. The superdelegates supporting her are now having second thoughts and these delegates are close to the Clintons. What a change from the early days of the campaigns.

he is pathetic…..
keep drinking the Kool-Aid all you Obama Zombies, keep it up and our country WILL pay for it!!!

This is not an attack. this is a fact. Attack means something is not true and you are saying it is true. Obama never supported Iraq war but clinton said he suported . That is an attack. this is a fact. Sen. Clinton praised NAFTA but now her tone is changing. I think For Clinton News Network, it became an attack. this CNN will be out of this business after TX and Ohio election. Do CNN guys know that Obama is leading even in TX in a recent poll?

And just watch the HRC supporters come in crying "CNN is so biased. Why isn't this considered a negative attack on HRC?"

The answer is simple: Barack Obama has never attacked HRC's character or how she chooses to speak. He attacks her voting histoiry, flaws in her plans, and sticks to the issues.

Hillary attacks his manner of speaking, sends her husband out to say that Barack Obama is like Jesse Jackson (who could never win over the hearts of black Americans, talk less of the American people), attacks him about being like Martin Luther King while she is more like a president (that was a gem), and attacks him about how little "experience" he has even though his public service and political experience far out weighs hers.

I only hope that the Americans in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Texas, Puerto Rico, Ohio, and every where else can see the clear difference between these 2 democrats and vote for Barack Obama to be our nominee

Here's an important distinction between the attacks of the 2 democratic candidates: Hillary most recent attacks, thus far have been on Obama's campaign conduct (e.g., not wanting to debate), whereas Obama is attacking Hillary on her approach to the issues. Attacks on the issues are fair game; attacks on how one campaigns, akin to personal attacks, are just red herrings.

Hil should go back to her "I'm more experienced" line. It's b.s., but at least it raises a substantive distinction between her and Obama.

Good, take it to her. She can't expect to attack you and not be attacked back.

Although, I am sure the Clintonistas will claim he is being mean to a woman.

I am taking bets on the over/under. How many times does Hillary cry, prior to "suspending" her campaign?

Right now it's 4.

And keep on going after her for NAFTA. I am sure she will say that was her husband and not her. But isn't that the main part of your 35 years of experience?

how exactly is obama going to single handedly end partisanship? i havent seen the republicans asking for a truce.

the clintons had to fight for what was right, and they get the reputation of being 'partisan' along with all its silly new connotations.

ridiculous,

Great speech last night from Obama. It's sad a lot of Hillary supports won't see it, because it offered some of the greatest details of Obama's plans, while at the same time, countered many of her fallacious arguments.

Keep the left and right jabs coming. And let's hope this thing doesn't get drawn out until the convention.

obama refuses to debate because hillary is the stronger candidate and it is evident during the debates, as is his lack of experience and knowledge. his speeches sound more like sermons. the people of america are obviously looking for a cult leader as opposed to a president who has the ability to get things done.

As Obama points out, Clinton has been perpetuating lies about Barack Obama. I am glad that he decided to strike back agains Clinton's slanders. Clinton says that Barack only uses words, but look at her record. She doesn't act until she is forced to by political opinion. The only things that she ever DOES anything on are her pet projects. Basically, her policy is "Do whatever it takes to get elected" whereas Barack's policy is "Do whatever is best for the American People." Is this not an obvious choice for president?

Hillary brought the gloves while Obama used the often forgotten about jab with a couple of upper cuts to her and McCain.

Fired Up Ready to Go.

Welcome to Texas, Obama!

….It looks as if clinton and Mccain can't create their own slogans. Everybody is copying from Obama. Last week it was Mccain saying " Am fired up and ready to go" and this week it 's clinton saying " yes we will". Why can't these candidates be creative at all, am not surprised because all the candidates both republican and democrats candidates all started talking about change which is Obama's slogan. " Please Obama don't bring anymore slogans"

!!!!!!!!!! OBAMA 08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He's right to speak up lest he be swiftboated like John Kerry. With Bill Clinton , Hillary, and McCain aiming at him at the same time, it's time he bring out his well known supporters. The triple teaming seems a little unfair. Dirty politics at its best.

John McCain should at least wait unti the primaries are over.

Obama makes me sick.

Bill Clinton prided himself in copying the Republican policies. He referred to it as, 'trianglization'. Now that policy has come to back to haunt Hillary, and it is now 'stranglization'. It is strangling her attempt to carry the unions . NAFTA is a bust for working people and it only benefits the fat cats who Bill hob nobs with today.

Obama is full of a lot of hot air!!!

its becoming clear from the blogs that a huge number of obama supporters are excitable simple sheep, who are more swayed by the celebrity factor than by knowledge.

here we go, electing another president who knows jack all.

go hillary.

i wonder why everyone has stayed tight lipped on the negative comments by Obama on Hillary.People should get over been carried away by Obama's Rhetoric.Let us face reality here this is the greatest nation in the world and in this time that America is literally going down the drain,she needs someone with the experience to handle the crises as they unfold.The country do not need a learn on the job person.Think beyond hatred for the Clintons and bet this country to a better shape.

Senator Clinton's speech last night was impressive, and was more well received by the audience than Obama's whose lithany of "when I am president of the United States" , (more than TWENTY TIMES) sounded like a broken record. He needs to have another stump speech, I know it by heart now. The more I listen to it the more it reveals how empty it is.

WE have to stop the clinton/bush royalty to make any changes in this country. George Washington did not want to be king and it is time we carried out HIS INTENT for the presidency.

With Florida and Michigan you wouldn't be where you are. This is so unfair. I feel counted out…

It is so sad to see a potential candidate to president to use a discourse of discredit towards experience, as if people don't go through life studying, working hard to achieve their goals. If it was only for hope to change instead of action, whatever it takes (and that means to make mistakes, but at least you took a stand), we would not be the country we are.

Don't behave like a 3rd world country leader that discredits his ancestors and predecessors to earn the vote of the non-experienced!

Barack - Thank you for pointing out the self-centeredness and hypocrisy of Hillary and her campaign. I love your message. This will be my first Ohio primary where I will vote Democratic and it will be for you. A vote for you is one less for Hillary.

Lets not forget the Newt and his contract to destroy the American dream.A Republican Congress pushed to send the American working man and woman into slave labor wages and sell everything but the kitchen sink to the highest bidder.Lets not forget to clean the out house we now call the Congress.

I guess Obama can take the heat.

I've noticed no one in the press has mentioned what a cake walk (until this week) Clinton has had. Obama has not gone negative, though he has been critical.

Although, going negative is her only hope, I can't help but feel it is back firing for her. It has made it easier for him to attack her without looking bad. So she get the negative press for going negative, but he looks justified for defending himself.

The best offense is a good defense.

With each week he looks more presidential, but she looks like an outdated politician.

Words DO matter.
Obama '08

Desperation time for Obama. He can only say the word, "change" so many times before it is reduced to emptiness. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. And, he is afraid to debate Hillary because he lacks specifics, experience, and any record of accomplishment. So, what is left but to go negative against both Hillary and John McCain. I am a white male democrat, for now, and I see utter nonsense in this strategy.

Obama sorry I don't believe in your dream for you as the appointed one. I believe all men and women are created equal, this is the time for women to stand up and be counted. This is not about race and it could be about sexist. Black men were given the right to vote in this country way before women. Women have come a long way.

I think one day you might make a difference, but no today. Hillary is so much more experience and her health care is for all americans. That is fair and equal, so please don't talk about equal especially since you can't perform when it comes time to stand up. After all, you records seems to declare you never ready to say Yes or No when you stand before Congress when the vote really matters.

You are living in a dream world, lets get real and live in the real world.

i think he is so right that she backed nafta and why she did . he is so inspireing go obama you have my vote

Barack ' The Blessing' Obama is the only candidate who does not have any complex about who he is and where he could take this great country to. He has inspired me, an independent, that he has the trust of the people to put our country back on track. Out of all the candidates he is the one with much cleaner record. Support Obama and let's regain our honor in the world. Let's give ourselves and the world some hope that we are great and are capable of making this world a safer place. Let's give hope not bombs.

Of the two Democrat candidates, one is naive, all words (Barack), the other one is cynical, all greed (Hillary) . Either one is a calamity to this country, if elected President.

Hello Everyone!

I’m writing here from PORTUGAL.
I just want to say that you best candidate is Hillary. She is intelligent, accurate, she’s got lots of experience than Obama.

Obama is a great politician, and his speeches are very good, BUT THEY ARE EMPTY. Can you see any relevant idea for your country in his speeches? I don´t think so!!!

The best you have to do is to VOTE for Hillary Clinton!
Whit Obama in vice for 8 years, he can learn lost’s os experience, and he will be a winning candidate for 2016 and 2020

This is the best way to put the Democrats 16 years in the White House.

Hillary/Obama08

Glad to see Obama is back to politicas as usual. We all knew hope wouldn't last forever

I believe its time Obama confronts Hillary on her flip flops throughout the years. I also hate how Hillary bring everything back to her husband. Who's running here???Bill or Hillary???

I'm glad he drew these contrasts. Clinton is too negative. She's simply turn to tearing down Obama to make herself more likable. What happened to Hillary??

My vote is for Barack! …If Barack is not in the general for any reason… I'm voting for McCain. Hillary is a big turn off!

This guy would destroy Mcain in November. He can take someone down with such eloquence.

Looks like Obama has been changing what hes saying around a little.. I'm glad CNN is FINALLY talking about it.. Obama, get you're act together.

Listen Up!! Looks like a new flip-flopper has surfaced — the one who only one day earlier accused Hillary Clinton of attacks, calling attacks on him "THE SAME OLD POLITICS." Is the the "CHANGE" Barack Obama has promised to make? If so — YAWN!!!

Obamas speech was full of half truths and he seemed very angry. He's a good speaker, but he is not above being a "politician" as he claims - he is a politican just like all the others. Just look at his record. The difference is, he won't admit it.

If people really want change in America, then Obama is the person best suited in that regard. Hilliary energizes the republicans because of divisive politics and John Macain is just another Bush!

While words may inspire, they certainly do not get anything done within the legislative bureaucracy. At the end of the day, you have to know how to navigate the legislative process, bring both sides of the aisle together, and make things happen. Senator Obama is sorely lacking in that arena given his inexperience at the federal level; Senator Clinton has proven she can do that for that last 7 years for the people of New York and that is why she will have my vote.

How can Mr, Obama support something for years, when he has only held office for two?
This guy has not done anything for his state, nothing for you and I and has never even owned a business.
He is simply not ready to get us out of debt, end a war and lead us as a people.
He is a great speaker though!!! I have listened to the excat same speech for a year (note above where the author says he "added a line")… Be a fantastic preacher but not ready for the most powerful job on Earth.

We watched Billary's and Obama's speeches - what a difference!

It was absolutely apparent that Billary is just a poll driven politicians who won't be able to change a thing in Washington … if she would ever be elected (Not by our family! We will rather vote Republican the first time).

Obama is a once-in-a-generation leader and this is our time.

I am sooooo tired of Billaries lies, half-truths and deliberate distortions.

That's right Obama. Tell them.

its sad how obama has turned so many in the democratic party against the clintons, the people who've done more for it than anyone in decades.

wake up people.

Do you really want your President to be from the Political Party that did not think through its decissions and their reprocussions as regards the states that moved up their primaries and caucases? If they can not organize their own nomination process effectively or think through their decissions then how can you expect them to make good decissions for your country. Is this the type of democracy that you want the world to see, that you are trying to get other countries to sign on to for themselves. The DNC should get off their buts and either schedule new primaries or caucases in these states or get everyone on side that the rules are the rules and put an end to this scandal because this sure is a scandal for the Democratic Party.

It's really easy to stand up and attack someone when they are not in a position to immediately respond. It take a lot more courage to debate someone one on one (that is, with just two candidates on the stage, unlike 17 of the previous 18 debates).

Oh What about his Politics as usual comments, I guess they don't apply to him! The best candidate for the job is Hillary Clinton

I'm glad to see Obama finally getting fed up with the Clintons' attacks and fighting back. The guy's got spunk as well as idealism. From the beginning, the Clintons mistook him for a lightweight, but he's one tough cookie. It's quite a sight seeing him beat them up, down, and sideways.

I watched both speak and I'm plain tired of the Billery slam on Bush. Show some respect or admit you buy into the divisive pokitcs that got us here and keep us here. She is the tired old actress with 3 and 4 people at a time trying to add enough makeup to pretty her up before these speaches. Pimping her daughter out and trying to have it both ways with the poor me nonsense.
Then Obama speaks. He is right you know. if you can't get people to follow whats the point? A bit like TR that way. He had and kept the people and brought forth the progressive movement.
So same old creepy politics with Billery? Same old same old with McCain or roll the dice? This old repulican is for rolling the dice.
On a last note to Billery.. If you had any heart beliving what you say you would not take, or better give back, all the special interest money you feed on.

Clinton is part of the problem because she's part of the "old school." Obama is the change we need. Hillary is just another Clinton.

Say NO to dynastic presidents and vote for CHANGE.

Earth to Hillary, Where are your Tax Returns!!

We want those Tax Returns!

great speech obama, I m an idependent and he as my vote now!

Go Hillary 08. I believe in action not in words. "Action speaks louder than words". You are the Hope and you are the Solution for America!!

Hillary and Obama are in for a fight. A fight that's includes the Democratic party.

Barack Obama said it well…no need for a comment!

May I add that the American people must vote, donate, and participate….Obama 08!

The news people are calling Michelle beautiful? Tara Banks is beautiful. Michelle looks like Condi Rice and is anything but beautiful. Where are they getting this? Michelle is a little less than average, I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder. This like the Outer Limits, nernernerner. This election is surreal.

Being honest with the american people is a great characteristic that Barack Obama posses. I am very well pleased with Barack Obama comments in this post, calling Hillary out for the flop-flopper that she is.

Hope for a Change, Barack Obama 08!

I thought Obama looked tired. His energy level was way less than usual. I am disappointed, though not surprised, that CNN does not quote Clinton's remarks–she made a very good, detailed speech. I watched live on C-Span and noticed that Clinton received more applause during her remarks than Obama did. There were also many people who stayed seated when a few in the front stood for the usual applause lines uttered by Obama. I hope Wisconsins will reject the media push for Obama, do the right thing, and vote for Clinton!!

I'm not a union employee now, but I was, and I will support Obama

Politics of hope and change? Sounds like the same old politics as usual.

Please somone report that Senator Clinton need only last long enough to deliver the primary into the hands of Alexis Herman, chair of the credentials committee (Clinton Administration loyalist). That committee will most certainly seat the Michigan and Florida delegates thus circumventing the rules and putting Hillary over the top in delegate count.

GO OBAMA GO!!!!!!

Obama goes negative again!!! Obama please mention something about your platform beside change and hope, we want substance not just beautiful speeches!!

Obama makes me want to throw up. I'm so tired of his "canned" speeches…he really needs to CHANGE it up. One of these days I HOPE the American people will see through this unknowledgeable "man of the moment".

Media- what jab are you talking about?????? What was the reason for this write up?????

Sen Obama did great. words do matter. He's inspiring not only the country but the whole world. Everybody is so excited for him. He will be a wonderful president.
we love Obama.

Hillary has experience but NO JUDGEMENT !!! ( NONE) !!!!!!
Look at how she has run her campaign…. she values loyalty OVER Competence!
Obama/Edwards 08 Si Se Puede

It is about time Obama starts calling these career politicians on their self serving policies. (providing his facts are correct) "We the people" are very tired of "business as usual."

Hillary is the best candidate. Her experience, poise, and dignity that she has showed on the very bias press toward Obama demonstrate that she has what it takes to be president on the most difficult times on history. Obama is a smooth talker. He makes a great salesman, but he is to coocky and arrogant to be president

I'm tired of hearing nothing substantial from Obama's camp. It is time he realizes that Hillary is going to destroy him in Texas and the momemtum that creates will end this once and for all.

Sucks to be you Obama!

Tell em like it is Barack. Join the Movement!!!! Obama' 08

Obama's solutions are pretty much the same as Clintons. The difference is that Obama inspires millions more people to get involved in politics while Clinton campaigns on a return to partisan hackery of the 90's that turns people off. There IS a 'vast right wing conspiracy' that hates the Clintons, as they reminded us so often. Obama broke records in Viriginia for turnout, and the prior VA election broke every previous record by 40% (George 'Macaca' Allen). Hilary will turn out the GOP, Obama will turn out the majority it takes to win decisively.

Barack Obama has my vote.
Words do matter, such as "By the people, for the people, of the people."

It's time he went on the offensive and out the Clintons for who they really are, Billary would say and do anything and I mean "anything" to get elected. She did not give a rats behind about those who voted for her in those 8 states she lost, couldn't even thank her volunteers in those states!!!

I think that clintin should concentrate on winning delegates and not on attacking Obama. Every time she does that she looses voter cos Obama comes back with a stronger answer than Hillary would have hoped for.

Keep hitting her where it counts, in her big fat gut and big mouth. Make it count, this witch Hitlery is trying to punish big corporations, tax them to nothing, no growth in employment, make this country suffer more than what Bush has done to this country.

Vote for Obama and save this country from the troll Clinton's. Enough is enough already, cahnge this country from these to idiots.

Obama!

This guy sure is upset to stray off a campaign speech this close to critical primaries. Clinton must have hit a nerve. Voters beware of Obama, the promise of change with NO plan!!!!

The Just words section of his speech really put Hillary to shame. I think if anyone watched they would have seen the presidential-like leadership skills he has. I think he did a very good job at mixing his stump with the policies he has been criticized about lacking. GREAT SPEECH!

I KNOW YOU LOVE TO PRINT THE NEGATIVES ESPECIALLY IF IT IS FROM OBAMA AGAINST HILLARY. POOR OBAMA HE CAN'T DO IT HONESTLY . I THINK I WILL CRY.

GO HILLARY 2008

Barack will say anything to get elected. He is not much different from Hillary, only more naive and childish.

so this is a jab and not negative campaigning? and so the delusional obamabots will chime in………the double standard is unbelievable.

i'm getting so sick of the Clinton family. Anything for power, eh…

It's just annoying they have so many people fooled.

Yeah, and he is the positive one out there! Shame on you Obama…

When Hillary attacked Obama saying words are cheap …maybe he wants speeches instead of debate…CNN did not label that as far more critical. What is going on???

All of this is hiding a more fundamental problem.
How it is more possible than ever for a corrupt media to control our political process by cheerleading for a candidate.
Obama seems to have a black belt in stretching and hiding the truth.

To quote the Nazi propogandist Joseph Goebbels:

“The most brilliant propagandist technique will yield no success unless one fundamental principle is borne in mind constantly - it must confine itself to a few points and repeat them over and over"

If Obama is trying to claim he came up with the ideas hillary uses in her healthcare plan in september because he released his in the spring, he needs to step back and realize that just because her written proposal was put out in september does not mean she did not already have those ideas before then. She has been publicly promoting various aspects of her universal healthcare plan since as far back as the first clinton presidency. Meaning she trumps his spring release by about 10 years.

Mr. Obama, advocating for years?
As far as we all know, you have held a public office for two years which in fact, with all due respect, is certainly not grounds to have the most important job on the planet at this time.
Mr. Obama has done nothing for his own state, nothing for you and I and never even owned a business. How people, can we actually allow someone to govern our land with no experience at all… I would like to think we are smarter than that.
Mr. Obama is a fantastic speaker (found once again quoting the greats of our land in this story) but, has given the exact same speech for a year, even the author noted that Mr. Obama finally added a new line last night, "just recently"…
This one would be a very big mistake people…

Clinton saying the media is favouring Obama - reminds me of "it's a right wing conspiracy" statement she made a few years ago! It's never the Clintons at fault - always someone else.

Jeez he's really mean spirited he always says Clinton and he will still be friends after the race she would have to be an IDIOT to still be his friend that's cold hearted to talk like that he doesn't know why she's running I thought he was a candidate of change I might now vote for Mccain instead

Obama is just all talk. When will people wise up and realize this.

They're both quite wrong about NAFTA. Our need to compete in global markets is more acute than ever, and while NAFTA may need some tweaking, protectionism is counterproductive.

The title of this article is not correct. Obama mainly responded to the attacks by Clinton. I am disappointed with CNN.

This guy is starting to get out of control. Hope someone in CNN realises it and starts asking him questions that he can´t answer.
Like, why does he wantto double foreign aid? for what country?
Talking to his fans is like talking to a wall.

I am so tired of Hillary stated what she can do. If she could have done it she would have already done it. She and Bill have been in the seat for so long now all of a sudden the can do this and that. Why isn't it already done by her if she can go about her solutions

I am surprised to read a story like this. For months Obama has been attacking Hillary more-so than she attacks him but the media never pays attention to that. Instead you hear Bill Clinton calls his campaign a "fairytale" and Hillary says this and that about Obama.

Obama is the candidate that is truly playing dirty.

Nice… Kepp it coming Obama. She aint got nothing on ya. She is tough all of a sudden now… Even her campaign controls her, not she controlling her campaign.. Ready to lead on day one??? I hear ya!

A house divided against itself cannot stand
Dems had a good chance - now with these two kids attacking each other- I doubt.
McCain must be laughing loud at the other side of the world.

Michelle said Obama was going to make mistakes like any human being. Then why, why can´t he accept some mistakes of the past?

Yup… Obama hit this one on the head.

What makes it ok for obama to attack clinton ….. but not the other way around? I would personally like to have some answers on this larry sinclair thing. By not denouncing it. He is making it that much more believable.

So sad. Barrack and his cult followers have almost destroyed the Democratic party. I do dare to say it is almost fractured beyond repair. But I must say he is good a the spin. It seems everyone is to blame for everything, except him. hmmmmm. The great Obama speaks and you all shall follow

i think is time for hillary clinton to step down for barrack obama,or she will do it disgracefully by obama defitting her.By then the clinton political dynasty will fall.

OBAMA in 2008! We don't have time to waste!!

HEY CNN…

WHERE ARE HILLARY COMMENTS FROM THE WISCONSIN DEM

DINNER?

OH THATS RIGHT…CNN SUPPORTS OBAMA

SHAME ON CNN

HILLARY 08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HILARY ADS AND ACTIONS SHOWS THAT SHE IS WILLING TO DO AND SAY ANYTHING TO WIN THIS RACE. IT MAKES HER LOOK LESS GENUINE AND LOWERS HER INTEGRITY.

SINCE WHEN DO "WORDS" DONT MATTER?

boo hoo obama. go and steal more ideas from her (ie Ecomomic Policies) and then come back slamming her.

and this is what America wants???

i'd rather live in Iceland.

Obama I have two things to say:

Where is the beef?!

Show me the money!

Now you can keep going with your grandielocuent speaches…..

OBAMA HAS RUN HIS CAMPAIGN LIKE A WELL OILED MACHINE. ACTIONS DO MATTER! OBAMA HAS NOT HAD TO RETOOL CAMPAIGN LIKE MCCAIN AND CLINTION HAVE.SO I ASK YOU WHO DO YOU THINK WOULD DO A BETTER JOB RUNNING THIS COUNTRY.

So much for Obama's politics of change. What a phony!

This is politics as usual.

I have enjoyed the evolution of Obama over the past couple of months. He is on target with his remarks about Clinton's policies. He is consistently keeping people honest to prevent them from twisting what has really happened in order to make themselves look better.

It's no wonder the Clinton's are so fired up angry, their ability to lie and stretch the truth is weakened by the next President, Obama.

She asked for it.

Inspiring the country to believe in what? and do what? telling you that all are idiots and all failed and all are corrupted.. except him. The cool guy is in the business to ridicule everyone. What a hypocrite! And you want to see the angry man face over and over again for the next 4 years?

so much for being the "nice guy" now. mr perfect hasnt tasted anything yet when it comes to negativity. get prepared for the worst to come and see if mr perfect can handle the fire.

I checked out Obama's cite for those so-called specifics.
What are you people talking about?
You need to be asking this moving speaker, with respect to him because i do like him, some very good questions about his policies.
He is very general across the board.
I need more than that before i vote for him.

He is starting to sound desperate. Looks like the train is loosing steam. Chug Chug Wisconsin, Chug Chug Chug Ohio, Chug Chug Chug Chug Texas! Chug Chu Ch C …………………….

Go Obama !. That's exactly how I feel.

I watched the C-Span presentation of this event. Will CNN report on the negative campaigning Obama is doing, or will you simply overlook this as you have in the past? You certainly never let Hillary get away with anything.

AND I MIGHT ADD J.F.K.'S ASK NOT SPEECH, ANOTHER PRESIDENT SAID "WE HAVE NOTHING TO FEAR BUT FEAR IT SELF AND SOMEONE SAID "I STILL BELIEVE IN HOPE. OH YEA THAT WAS BILL CLINTON, BUT MAYBE HILLARY IS RIGHT TALK IS CHEAP. SHAME ON HER.

Good for you Obama. We know you have backbone.
Now it's time to let them know. And you are also
an honest person with a good heart.
Very hard to find these days.

Obama, is on stage currently, even though, He isn't in Hollywood. This isn't a theatrical platform.

What is the meaning of HOPE. The Webster dictionary defines HOPE, " A feeling that what is wanted will happen" " A person or thing from which something may be hoped." " to trust or rely"

Obama, is so weak in matters of running our country, it is ridiculous.
He has duped the younger population.

Hillary's whole campaign boils down to this: Vote for me because I am Mrs Clinton.

Senator Obama worked his way up from the bottom rung on to the National Political scene. Hillary jumped to the head of the line because she is Mrs. Clinton.

We know which one has the really experience of having to come up through the ranks, on their own merits, and it sure as hell is not Mrs. Clinton.

Obama change your name from OBAMA to OPRAH.
That's the only thing you can CHANGE.

I look on Obama as an overcharged Transformer,

on a circuit boad, of the wrong of all components.

Dead short coming up!!!!

If Clinton is accusing Obama of special interest, who is Andrew Young and what does he represent in Hillary's campaign if not for special interest.

The gloves are off. No more Mister Nice Guy.

GO OBAMA!!

What Obama supporters don't understand is that he - if elected- would work in Washington as every other President has and will be subjected to the same old Washington. You guys who think that his presence is going to change the town are greatly mistaken . Rhetoric only goes so far.

Hillary has long supported NAFTA. Its goes to the question of how you can support labor in USA but still want to send jobs away from our economy. Answer is you cant. Again Obama shows more substance in his reasoning that Hillary.

Obama is a joke, he is all about words and no facts. He can deliver a great speach, but exactly what hillary has mentioned, but when you start looking into his record, it does not add up at all. It's contradictions and lies, deceptions for the american people. He will say what ever to become next president. He is all about false adds, and the funny part is that when he attacks hillary on her ads and when you do your research his adds are false and misleading. Not according to her or her campaign, it's according to people who actually investigate.

How can Obama be upset when he copied most of Hillary's economic policy (as even the GOP recognizes). I think Obama is a good person, but we need solutions. My health insurance costs over $700 a month. Under the HRC plan, I would simply save more than under the Obama plan. Hillary simply has more solutions. I am not against Obama, I AM FOR HILLARY.

Obama, let stay focus. When the Clintons, start attaching you back. Please do not go to CNN, crying the blues "Race Card".

Obama trying to tie McCain to Bush. Not goning to bootcamp. At least McCain shows up to vote in the Senate.

If I read one more post or hear one more female Hillary fan utter or write the words : "You Go Girl!" I feel i'm going to puke. Risking the future of the country for some blind display of feminism is irrationally sad!!!

Senator Clinton = McCain 08

"You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time. "
Abraham Lincoln

Abraham Lincoln's quote seems quite approprate for the Obama campaign. I just hope that some of we Democrats wake up before it is too late.

Clinton 08!!!!!!

Why doesn't he debate her in Wisconsin.Its easy to talk and criticize but the fact is they've only debated one on one once.Talk is cheap especially when its starting to sound like a broken record.We have had men in power since the beginning of this country,wouldn't it be a real change to have a women a different hormonial intelligence.Mabe less ego and testosterone.Hillary will bring real change alot more than another smooth talking male

Hillary's been making bad decisions all of her life. This is her political experience! Whoopie………………………………

Obama has been advocating things for years. Probelm is, he wasn't in the senate. Can the media people ask some questions of him instead of ignoring everything.

I have never seen a photo of Obama without his mouth wide open- this guy only talks and does not listen, fatal for a Presidential candidate. What a fake and a fraud. As P.T. Barnum said, you can fool some of the people all the time and all of the people some of the time-the American electorate is not known for either its jgood udgement or realism(witness Bush) and some of the people (Obama supporters, oh the EXCITEMENT!!!!, like a rock star) are getting fooled all the time.

Way to Go! OBAMA 08!

I watched both speeches live on C-Span. What a difference. Obama is a good speaker, but he also believes in people. He is not ignoring "down-scale" voters (as the Clinton campaign calls us), in smaller states that are not "delegate rich". He is the person that says what he believes and believes what he says. I respect that.

Obama did not jab left and right. He was simply responding to Hillary's comments about him. I thought the news media was supposed to objectively report the news and not spin it. Please let the public draw their own conclusions based on their own observations.

Looking at the picture being presented of Obama, it appears He could eat a Water Melon in Tack and still have room left for "I Told You So!, Mathaw.

"I have a dream" and "all men are created equal", yes we can. It took a while but that was the perfect answer. Obama is also right when he says you can have all the right intension but if you divide people with divisive politics, then how can you make those 10 point ideas become a reality.
Also honestly people please tell me what she did as a US senator…

This again shows that Obama fumbles for his words when they are not written by someone else.. Hillary is the best candidate and is right to question why he will not debate in Wisconsin.

Hope everyone goes and checks out factcheck.org…………the infliction of the voice on the wrong syllable I think.

RIGHT ON, MR. PRESIDENT!

Thats it obama! Tell it like it is!!!!

Yes, Hilary was subtle with her Obama attacks. But this seemed manipulative since her ads, claiming that Obama was ducking debates, were not subtle. This is probably why Obama defended himself. Why shouldn’t he rebut her ads? Last night, it was also interesting how five callers on C-Span radio (2 democrats, 2 republicans, and 1 independent) responded to both candidates’ speeches. They told the radio announcer they would vote for Obama. One Arizona republican went even further and called Hilary "icy, cold, and manipulative."

Go Barack! Go ahead and say it like it is. Make it easy for some Americans to understand.

Words matter alot just ask Mr. Clinton about his perjury hearing. I also thought it was funny to see Hillary giving a speech about speeches she said, "good speeches don't mean anything" while giving a bad speech. lol… Yeaha right! words don't mean anything,but you were angry about "words " a MSNBC commentary used regarding Chelsea. You Clintons amaze me with your double talk and thinking. America please vote for OBAMA! Do we want more of this Clinton,Bush crap?

Go Obama !
Let's cherish this moment and appreciate the rise of a uniquely talented leader.
"HillBilly", it is time to bow out gracefully.

Obama 2008 !!

Again you print the Obama highlites and just mention Hillary. What is even more obvious you mention Hillary will do anything to win while Obama does the attacking.

Sometime I feel sick of Obama, Talking

Negative
Complain complain, complain
No clear solution what he want to do
Creating a yes we can do theme song to persuade voters

Its really sound like we all living in a dream OBAMALAND

History does not fly in as air, it is generated speeches is also part of history, and it is the speeches you called emty is what you use and it is what determine your decision making. you must count one before you count two. Obama is doing what is right for Him to do at any point in time. Hillary remember it his speeches you are using in your decision making which is part of History. So you and Him who is better? we want some thing 100% new. presidential race is not made for families to control.
Obama 08..

CNN is in bed with the Clintons… If anyone should doubt this, I ask you to simply read the first paragraph and search for a video of her speech. If that's mild and only circuitously critical… Well, it's not and that's the point. And that, my friends, doesn't depend on what the meaning of the word "is" is.

Viva Clinton Viva…………how subltl Obama is when he plays the race card……………..

I live in the Netherlands and I warmly support Barack Obama.
He will not only be a great leader for the US but he can also inspire
people in the hole world.
He is authentic, has vision and he can build bridges between people.
For me he is a gift off God to this world and I hope that the American people can see that to. Get on that train of change! The world needs
a leader as Obama.

Ted van Tol

Dear Clintons,

please bow out gracefully.

Sincerely,

America

Isn't he against negative campaigning? He's a flip-flopper like all the other politicians. I will vote for him if he wins the nomination, but his main stump is the same as George Bush's in 2000, "I'm a uniter, not a divider". To get things done we need to change Washington, reach across the isle, etc. That's what they all say, he just articulates very convincingly. If he were really about change I wonder if the other elite politicians would be behind him. They're all making money with their dirty back room deals. Wake up sheep.

Words do matter!

I love how Obama says he's not into the "same old politics" yet he keeps firing negative comments towards Hillary.

I am so sick of Obama pretending to be on the right side of issues (Iraq resolution vote and now NAFTA) when he wasn't even around to have it mean anything. NAFTA was what, 1992? 1993? Wasn't he in diapers then? Okay seriously, didn't he just graduate from Harvard about that time? And we all know that he wasn't part of US Senate for the Iraq vote- who knows,he may have voted like his supporter Sen. Kerry. It just gets old- like his "present" votes, he seems to always be playing it safe and not really standing for anything. Universal Health Care that doesn't cover everyone is NOT Universal Health Care, Sen Obama. And why get on Hillary all of the time about her mandates. What about YOUR mandates for families with children until they are 25? How are YOU going to enforce that? Mandates are necessary- Universal Health Care would be useless without mandates (healthy people just don't bother getting insured until they are really sick and end up in ER or in the hospital)
Bottom line- Hillary has better plans, better solutions, and is more of a courageous leader. She has my vote.

More one sided reporting from CNN. Last week Hillary "attacked Obama relentlessly," but Obama simply "targets" and "takes jabs."

I am so over this direct support of Obama over Clinton. Just give us the new. We can decide for ourselves.

Mike-

Good it's time he sets the record straight. Hillary has been distroting the facts, and its time America hears the truth.

I've got the feeling that the two candidates that do best at the moment are the two that show independence (not just of their party, but more importantly, of their campaign staff).

Never, ever, let your personal message be clouded by the psychologists and sociologists on your campaign staff, who can't apply poll statistics, because they lack the basic understanding of the underlaying statistics anyway.

My favourite is still the "Obama 41 %, Clinton 25 % Edwards 14 %, with a margin of error of 4 %. BWHAHAHAHA, and the 20 % undecided will just spread evenly among the candidates - yeah, sure. (For those who don't get it: This statistic has a margin of error of 25-30 % because of the undecideds).

The Messiah again attacked Senator Hillary Clinton. Since, he is the Messiah, maybe he can solve the Aids crisis. Maybe, he has a prescription for that!

The people of Wisconsin need to be very careful. The Clintons have a way of putting you to the side if you do not vote for them. Ask the people of the states we just had primeries last week. She did not say thanks for your help or nothing. The clintons has said repeately that states she has lost is nothing to her campaign. If she do win the nomination she will need these people again. Now I see why people dont like her. Watch her face and see how mean and nasty she looks. This is really sad for me to say. Thats why we have to have Sen. Obama. If not, we will not have the change we need to heal our country.
YES WE CAN, YES WE CAN

Bill,

I really liked you as president.
But what were you thinking running this desperate campaign ?
You singlehandedly managed to jeopardize your legacy in just a few short weeks.

Just stop it, and bow out gracefully.

Thanks,

Steve

Obama will prevail on Tuesday, and all the way to the other three big states on March4th. Clintons are attacking for no reasons, and these are the signs of losers. We pray for him day and night, and may God be with him and strenghten beacuse he is the only one who has been positively lifting his campaigns, and he is the only one who will bring Americans together, and restores Americans' reputation around the world. God bless him and his campaign staffs. The victory's is ours. To all the friends out there, do not take my word for it, see it for yourself oon Tuesday. We will prevail.

WE ALL KNOW SHE WILL BE THE NEXTAMERICAN PRESIDENT,THERE IS NO OTHER CANDIDATE OUT THERE BETTER THEN HILLARY… SHE IS BRILLIANT ….GO HILLARY!!!!!!!!!

alot of people say that cnn favors obama alot and that fox news and abc are more fair towards the subject. My opinion maybe the people favor obama too much and maybe he is a better leader. not matter Who is president they would do a better job than bush. People critize OBAMA not look at what he has actually done and why he is inspired to do it check your facts. I just think OBAMA would truly do a better job.

GO HILLARY….YOU THE BEST

As a Texan and a Republican, I am going to cast my vote in the Texas Primary in favor of Barack Obama…not because I intend to vote for him in November, but because Texas Repulicans have a chance to put a "nail in the coffin" of the Clinton campaign! As a Texan, I am allowed to vote in any primary I choose, Democratic or Republican, and I am going to vote for Obama in the Democratic primary. Texas election law allows this because one merely registers as a voter and not as a Democrat or Republican. Finally, my vote is going to count for something…keeping Hillary out of the White House!!

Sliimey…..He does what he wants and gets a pat on the back , when she attacks she's the wicked witch.

Hillary 2008!

Obama 2016!

Wow!!!! I am seeing a new side to this person, and I love it. CCN did not precisely convey the moment, you just have to see this yourself, Obama did a hell of a job, Obama has my vote.

Bararack Obama, is MORE than anyone leading a Nasty campagin. He has proved once again, that sexism is more tolerated in the world than raceism. Yes the man has a good line about politics as always IT IS HE who is throwing the MUD. Hillary Clinton is a bright, accomplished leader who is deeply loved( guilt because she has been so ruthlessly smeared for deeds and misdeeds that are not her own.) The press has her gulity for not divorcing her husband ) For being brighter than many of them. Heaven forbid for aging publically. For not being the ideal mother, for having her own thoughts. For many who have voted and those have have not yet had the chance, it is only those who are serious thinkers,who are not easily swayed by cheap words, will see the Honor and Hope Hillary Clinton offers this country at this desperate time.

There's lots of talk concerning the experience Obama and Hilary Clinton does not have, but there's no talk concerning the lack of experience the Bush administration have. But my biggest question is, "What if President Bush had suddenly (God for bid) had died? That would leave Dick Cheney as acting President of the United States of America". How could the American people put this country in MAJOR JEOPARDY! When Bush announced Dic Cheney as Vice President, red flags all over America should have been raised on both sides of the party. Are we so afraid of certain families, that we allow the same dictatorship, that has launched the American people into war, but yet allow it in our on country. Even this comment will never be made public. Because of the owner of our television network. They are Rebublicans. Our news is partial to the republican party.

Signed Fisherman Bill

He should stick to the speech his writers write for him. When he strays it shows that he maybe isn't even such a good orator after all!
Taking cheap shots cuz we're scared Mr. O? Your mask is starting to slip….

politics of the moment, please Obama look at yourself infront of a mirror, and take a good look ar what you really see.

I can't believe Hillary would be so divisive and negative……oh wait that was the "change guy" who said that.

You are being fooled by this guy. Wake up and smell the resko.

This country needs a leader not a follower. Have anyone noticed how Clinton is following suit with everything that Barack have always been doing. All of a sudden she has a huge interest in the smaller states. Hmmm I thought they did not matter and anyone who does not see this is BLIND!!.

OBAMA 08

The more he gets off of his canned speeches, the less I even like him. Talk about packaging and marketing, that is the only reason he has gotten as far as he has. He is already starting to flip flop now that the heat is actually being turned up a little.

Go job my guy, they can't intimidate you ever. You are the chosen one that why it takes three Clinton against one, but at the end they will bow.
God bless America.

Go Obama Go.. you good thing you!
