		<description>CNN,

I cannot understand why you keep deleting my posts and you would publish racist posts from someone like that &#039;Mad In Texas&#039; jerk!!!!

Anyway, 

I will try to post it again.  

Hillary the truth hurts!  You did support NAFTA!  You did say that you would go after people&#039;s wages for healthcare!  America is over you Hillary!!!!  The truth of the matter is, you thought that you were owed the White House, and you are not owed anything!!!  I know people that have said that if you win the nomination, they&#039;d vote for McCain.  I will not go that far!  I would never vote for &quot;100 year McCain&quot; who came out and said that he hopes another leader would die, but I hope that you do not get the nomination and continue the same politics of Washington!</description>

		<description>Hillary is quite desperate , as she&#039;s running out of time and states to reverse Obama&#039;s momentum. She&#039;ll say just about anything at this time, pouncing on everything that could potentially hurt Obama. Xerox, speeches, plagiarism, you name it. The plagiarism thing is funny because we all know that politicians, including Hillary herself, get fed a lot of what they say out there, so why criticize your opponent on this issue. Simply silly and desperate, and no one is buying. Just focus on your own message Hillary, cause I&#039;m tired already of you talking about Obama.</description>

		<description>My guess is she&#039;s trying to impress some superdelegates who turned their back on her because of her negative campaign. But is the alleged outrage appropriate? After all, these mailers have been around for a while and even been analysed by factcheck dot org. They don&#039;t even come close to what the Billary campaign has come up with during the last couple of months.</description>

		<description>Finally, and I hope not to late.
Somebody has to take a better look at this big bubble called &quot;Change&quot;, and the rhetoric&#039;s of speaking a lot, and saying nothing.
Go Hillary you are the winner.</description>

		<description>Typical, she is really showing her desperation now. I&#039;m going to laugh when she doesn&#039;t do so well in Texas and Ohio. Stop being blind everything in those mailers is true. Obama confronted her on it at the last debate an she couldn&#039;t answer. Now she wants to compare him to Karly Rove? Just sad give it up already Hillary, stop crying admit defeat already.</description>

		<description>Hillary&#039;s &quot;healthcare&quot; plan is tantamount to a life tax, whereby she taxes people for living in the United States. I have checked her website, I have listened to her speeches and I have yet to see how she plans to make the healthcare she is promoting so &quot;affordable&quot;.  She accuses Obama of spouting rhetoric and of lulling Americans into a false sense of hope, however, her &quot;specific&quot; plan is not all that specific. I feel like if it is not free then it is truly not the &quot;universal&quot; she is representing it to be, because only free healthcare should be mandated. A disillusioned millionairess, she is in no way connected to the people and has no idea of how hard people work. She has made comments alluding to the fact that there are a vast majority of people who make &quot;75,000.00&quot; a year.. and who can afford healthcare yet choose not to purchase it... and therefore they should be mandated... hmnnn... income is not as relevant as it may seem unless you are subtracting the sum of a person&#039;s total  debt from it... the financial aid officer told me that by the time I graduate from school.. I will need to make at least 70,000.00 a year to pay back 1500 a month in school loans... the last thing I need to worry about is another health care bill or even worse garnished wages...  

Also, if she doesn’t plan on forcing people to purchase health care... then maybe she should not use the term mandate..


PS... Hillary you are not a good actress and you did not just see these flyers... they have been out for weeks... but nice way to start drama. Just what we need... More drama from the Clintons

		<description>After a devasting defeat in the Potomac Primaries she challenged &quot;Meet me in Texas!&quot;. Now after insufferable losses in another round of states(WI and HI), surging of national support to match hers, and Texas slipping through her fingertips, she stages the next showdown with &quot;Meet me in Ohio&quot;?? 

Obama she claim &quot;Meet me in Denver&quot; as he rides his way to the nomination.</description>

		<description>Oh please, she knew of these ads and sent ads about Obama as well!
she needs to tell the &quot;truth&quot; for once the problem is not the ad. It&#039;s the fact she knows her past support of NAFTA is a turn off for those in Ohio and Texas. Well guess what my husband is from MO and he didn&#039;t support her for the same reason.

But think of this:
Hillary can parade her record as it relates to first lady &quot;35 years of experience and &quot;I&#039;ve been tested&quot;. However, if it&#039;s something Bill did wrong or made a mistake, she states &quot;It wasn&#039;t me&quot;!!! talk about double standards!! She never stops!!!</description>

		<description>she is trying to play a victim here; she said meet me in Texas, Obama met her in Texas and won the debate fair and square...

she started this dirty mailings in Winsconsin and now Obama is dishing out same

She called Obama &quot;a change we can xerox&quot;, and but when she is called out on her changing positions on NAFTA, Billary is crying foul!

Now she is saying meet me in Ohio; well, Obama is going to clobber you on the side of your head in Ohio, because all the charges in the mailer are TRUE!!!

Billary, PUHLEEEASE, stand for what you believe in - you voted for Iraq war, you want a mandated or forced health care, your supported NAFTA trade deals that outsource our jobs overseas!!!
Dont change your positions just to win an election!

GO OBAMA!!!!</description>

		<description>Hillary&#039;s campaign has known about the mailer in question for some time, and anyone with HBO on demand can verify it: in the 02/01/08 episode of HBO&#039;s Real Time with Bill Maher Kim Gandy, president of N.O.W. and Clinton supporter / campaigner mentions the mailer, saying the Obama campaign &quot;has sent out a mailer that is the literal image of the Mary and Louise ad&quot;, going on at length about its contents. I did a double-take when Hillary said that she was shown the mailer &#039;in the crowd today&#039;. Her campaign is just grasping at straws ( remember plagiarism ) and she is the one  playing dirty - just not very well. That she goes along with these tactics, being chummy with Obama at the debate and putting on this act today is Washington at its most blatantly double-faced.</description>

		<description>Obamamorons why do you not research the differences.  She will give tax and other incentives to help people who can not afford the plan to help them.  The millions that Obama leaves out will not get the plan so that they can try to get a free ride and let the rest of us pay for them.  He has admitted that would happen and therefore supports a penalty for those that need health care but did not choose to participate.  She deals with not participating right up front and he wants to deal with it later.

Bill is the one that signed NAFTA after Bush 41 got it going.  She admits it is not being handled correctly and wants to have it reviewed and corrected.  

As far as the debate Campbell kept cutting her off so how could she say very much as she was very forceful in keeping the policy parts of the plan front and center.</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Obamamorons why do you not research the differences.  She will give tax and other incentives to help people who can not afford the plan to help them.  The millions that Obama leaves out will not get the plan so that they can try to get a free ride and let the rest of us pay for them.  He has admitted that would happen and therefore supports a penalty for those that need health care but did not choose to participate.  She deals with not participating right up front and he wants to deal with it later.</p>

		<description>Let&#039;s see if we understand all of this now......Clinton attacked Obama on Healthcare vigorously in the last debate and in her ads currently running. But she says Democrats should not attack each other on Healthcare???? Sounds like double talk???? Clinton and her camp attacked Obama about using lines from a support, friend and camaing co-chair, even calling it plagiarism. Almost everyone outside of the Clinto team has came out and siad it was clearly not plagiarism but the Clinton hit squad continues to spin it that way. At the same time her campaign was flotaing the John Edwards themes of Populism as her own, basically stealing Edwards message and not crediting him for it. Now she complains about unfair campaign tactics????? Bill Clinton was out playing the Race Card in South Carolina, insulting African Americans and trying to stir up white voters.
Now the Clinton is outraged over a few ad mailers that Obama&#039;s team is using???? So much for going out gracefully and trying to unify the Democrats going into the fall. The gloves are off and the real teeth and dark hearts of the Clinton team is out in the open once again. We have another new Hilary Clinton personna coming and this was will not play well. Somebody should step and and stop her now. The evil and mean Hilary will never help her in this campaign.

		<description>This is Hillary reacting to the opinion that she took it too easy on him during the debate. She read some polling data and must have figured out that she has to act tougher on Obama now. Those mailers have been out for weeks now. Are we supposed to believe that she woke up this morning and found those slipped under her door? No.</description>

		<description>This is not an attack ad or a negative campaign tactic.  Obama is clearly distinguishing his plan from hers as he did during the debates.

Given part of her plan is to REQUIRE Americans to have health insurance, doesn&#039;t that mean you have to have it regardless of affordability or you face fines?

It is Obama&#039;s duty to point out the differences since all of the Clinton supports seem to think he has no policy behind his speeches.  His health care plan will work to make it more affordable and have a buy-in system for Americans, but will NOT require you to have your own insurance except for your children.  I think that is a reasonable difference between the two.

And to those remarks about childishness, lets not forget Clinton calling him out for plagarizing his national campaign co-chair who told him to use the material and said after she pointed it out that it was no big deal.  All of that refuting evidence, and she still felt the need to bring it up at the TX debate.

Now riddle me this Clinton supporters.  Many people say Obama has no accomplishments.  Fine.  Tell me then what she has done in her 35 years of public service.  Please refrain from touting things her husband accomplished while in office.

I also do not think her smirk was appropriate in her closing statement in the TX debate when she was reminding America that she stayed with her husband who had an extra-marital affair in the oval office then lied about it to the American people.  Nothing funny about that at all my friends.  Is that the kind of moral value we can expect in another Clinton White House?</description>

		<description>Hey Hillary - what about those false flyers you sent out in IA and NH about Obama not being for women&#039;s choice?  What about the robocalls in SC that said that John Edwards was working with lobbyists?  What about your attacks on Obama&#039;s healthcare plan, saying it wasn&#039;t &quot;universal&quot; after you said in a debate in August that it was?  Hillary you should be ashamed of yourself!   You are unethical and dishonest.  You are the one who is destroying the Democratic party!  As a woman I am disgusted with your behavior.  The information in the flyers is true.  They are the same flyers that were sent out to Wisconsin.  All of a sudden they&#039;re not true.  You underestimate the American people.  We will not fall for your hypocrisy!</description>

CLINTON SUPPORTERS! GET YOURSELF TOGETHER. HER AND HER HUSBAND ALSO SUPPORTED NAFTA. STOP NEGLECTING OBAMA BECAUSE OF HIS RACE. HE IS THE CANDIDATE THAT WE NEED TO CHANGE THIS ENTIRE NATION.

CLINTONS UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE WILL SURELY BE UNIVERSAL BUT AT A GREAT COST! PLEASE DO YOUR RESEARCH!</description>

		<description>If in fact these flyers are the same that have been mailed earlier, then why doesn&#039;t Obama make Change as he claims to be representing and Correct/CHANGE his flyers to represent the facts re:NAFTA, failure to have corrected the record in his mailers as the newspaper did is a Dishonest Tactic which his team and Obama after his free press confrence to respond he claims are accurate (is this a little lie or a whopper?) I&#039;m sure he knows when his flyer were mailed. Health care, he sould let Clinton present her own enforcement mechanisims and not present his garnisment of wages plan as hers. If you have children or Don&#039;t, under his plan watch out where your wages (Garnished) will go to pay for all minors. BEWARE of WHAT you ASK for, you may get it!!!</description>

She supported the war in Iraq.  She said so with her vote.

She has proven she does not have the judgement to be president.  She has proven this over and over again.</description>

		<description>The 2 Democratic candidates appear to want increased moneys
tossed at public health. But, neither has given any anticipated costs
involved.  Just how heavily do they plan to go after the wealth of U.S.
citizens?</description>

		<description>Hillary is desperate.  She talks about OB and his naivety but that is what we need, something fresh and new.  Her past and her integrity came into question with her husband Bill but has OB delve into her misdeeds?  No.  If she happens to win the presidency our country will  be in worst trouble.  The bible also states that woman shall not have authority over the man.  God will defintely no longer bless us.</description>

		<description>Obama is also going to force parents to buy for their children.  Even if they can&#039;t afford it.  So far all those parents who are having a hard time paying the bills expect it to get harder when you can&#039;t afford health insurance for your kids.  Don&#039;t complain about one forcing people to pay without complaining about the other.</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t really see why Clinton&#039;s in an uproar; especially since what Obama says about her flip-flopping views on NAFTA and such are true.  The more she makes a big deal of it, the more people realize that she was for NAFTA but is now against it solely for the sake of her campaign.

But if she wants to keep high-lighting her weaknesses and boo-hoo&#039;ing because Obama is pointing out her errors in judgement, then let her do what makes her happy.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m just glad someone - I don&#039;t care who - is urging/publishing a discussion of the facts.  

Most of Hillary&#039;s voting record (Bill&#039;s too, for that matter) and the issues they support are abyssmal at best, terrifying at worst.  In numerous speeches she has said that she would &quot;garnish wages, if need be&quot; in order to put her &quot;universal health care&quot; program in place.  Garnish wages?  That&#039;s not &quot;universal,&quot; that&#039;s communism.  Then there is NAFTA, which anyone with good memory function recalls both Clintons supported vehemently.  NAFTA, which has increased Latin American trade corruption ten-fold.  Plus their is the fact that while a senator she voted FOR the Patriot Act; she voted to read your emails, tap your phones, etc.   And of course there her archive, which she and Bill refuse to release to the public - and now her tax reports too.  All of this is public information, readily available via a good Google search.    For all these reasons and many more, I have never understood the hype about her.  It seems so Orwellian.  I don&#039;t even really understand how she can run as a Democrat, but that says much about how much our party has sold itself - spinelessly - hook line and sinker.  

I don&#039;t think Obama&#039;s ad is such a shameful action, considering all of the immature allegations Hillary as shot his way.  I&#039;m still waiting on someone to call her on all the so-called &quot;plagiarism,&quot; in her campaign.  &quot;It takes a village,&quot; Maya Angelou.  And the direct Edwards rip-offs.  Also, it would be nice if someone would ask her to spell out her 35 years of service.  Does sleeping next to an American president for 8 years while he is in office constitutue &quot;experience&#039;?  In that case, all the wives of politicians should take over.</description>

		<description>Umm... it IS true.  Hillary&#039;s plan removes the American people&#039;s right to CHOOSE, an American principle for a free society.  Hillary does say there will be grants that people can apply for if they cannot afford it but who is to say who can and cannot afford it!  Everyone having healthcare is an incredible thing to accomplish but if it removes the right to choose between, say, food or healthcare I sure hope they&#039;re not FORCED into paying for healthcare.

And how is pointing out an IMPORTANT flaw in someone&#039;s policies or ideas going against his change platform.  If I recall correctly, you STOLE his &quot;Yes We Can&quot; platform in Wisconsin when you released a mailer that attacked HIS healthcare plan.

I smell a hypocrite...</description>

		<description>Look at the picture she is holding up.  At best, this is VERY MISLEADING by the Obama campaign, when other countries like Germany and Canada that have universal health coverage do not really have this problem.

Look at the facts - there are a lot of people out there making $50 - $75 k who would be perfectly able to afford the types of insurance that these campaigns are offering.  Under Obama&#039;s plan, if you don&#039;t feel like it, you don&#039;t have to get it.  Then later when you get sick, you do.  How does he plan to force THEM to pay for it, if this is such a big problem?  

What makes King Obama so great that he does not have to defend his plans down to the last detail?  He can just say &quot;No war in Iraq, and health care for all&quot; and we are supposed to dance in the streets?  His plans are actually much weaker and more naive than Hillary&#039;s (on health care and foreign policy).</description>

		<description>Chris.  You&#039;re as wrong as they get - an evident sign of someone brain-washed by the obamatron.  Her plan states that health-care will be available for everyone.  Not only be available but everyone WILL HAVE health care.  If you can&#039;t afford it then it will be provided for you.  Obama however, will leave a lot of americans who can&#039;t afford health care without it.</description>

		<description>FINALLY, Obama is getting called out for his... say one thing, do another campaign. He&#039;s just like all politicians, no different. There is no question these direct mail pieces are completely false, yet his campaign sent them out opening to close the gap in Ohio. By the way, Hillary has always fought for healtcare. Obama is doing it because it&#039;s politically convenient. If that&#039;s your issue, don&#039;t count on him changing anything. It takes more than just words to get real change.</description>

		<description>Mrs. Clinton is charging Mr Obama out of desperation.
She&#039;ve realized that her opponent (that&#039;s the way she call Mr Obama) 
did very well last Tuesday and she is losing ground.
I am following the candidates each and every day  on &quot;CNN&quot; and Mrs Clinton has been the one who has tried to diminish Mr Obama&#039;s
intelligence.
This complain is of the tactical nature.
Come on Mrs Clinton, people are not stupid is very clear to me that
Mr Obama is the best representative between the two parties.</description>

		<description>Having watched the debates and followed the campaigns pretty closely, I&#039;m not convinced that there&#039;s any information in the mailings (as represented here) contradictory to Hillary&#039;s record as it stands.  If she&#039;s going to make this kind of emotional charge against Obama (and a comparison to Karl Rove is a serious charge) she really needs to go to her record and bring out her health care plan and show us how Obama&#039;s campaign is misrepresnting her.  All she does (in this article) is deny policies (esp. her stance on health care) that she has espoused on the campaign trail and in debates.  If she can&#039;t correct this apparent contradiction and show us how she won&#039;t force people to buy health care if they can&#039;t afford it,  than this is just an opportunity for her to project the image of a strong confident leader and get some free advertising for her campaign.</description>

		<description>Second time in three days she has touted her complete hypocrisy!  Within thirty mintues of accusing Obama of plagarism, she plagarizes Edwards; after the infamous &quot;Barack&#039;s plan leaves 15 million Americans uninsured&quot; mailer in Wisconsin, she has the hypocritical audacity to go on national tv and balk at a mailer of Obama&#039;s that simply turns the tables on her.

That being said, I am disappointed that Barack went negative like this.  He had the lead, he has the momentum; he really didn&#039;t need to do this.</description>

		<description>I don’t understand what is so “shameful” about these mailings.  The fact of the matter is Sen. Clinton’s proposed plan for health care DOES require ALL Americans to obtain health insurance of some form.  She also WAS a proponent of NAFTA during the presidency of her husband and HAS changed her position on that subject now.  Her campaign felt entitled to “expose discrepancies” in Sen. Obama’s campaign when he used political rhetoric from some of his campaign supporters.  Why should the Obama camp not outline these (in my opinion much more pertinent) caveats of Sen. Clinton’s policies?  

Sen. Clinton’s continued belittlement of Sen. Obama via her claims that his campaign is all empty promises fails to impress me.  Sen. Obama’s blueprint for America (available on his website) does outline substantive policies that he has developed.  

Furthermore, I personally believe it to be both arrogant and ignorant of Sen. Clinton to claim that she has it all figured out, and that her plan is the paramount solution. NOBODY has all the answers to the problems that America faces today.  The most important characteristic of the next president is going to be their ability to work together with the best minds America has to offer to reach solutions.  

I don’t want someone who is “ready to be commander-in-chief on day one.”  Someone like that is far too eager to become a “leader.”  Once someone gets it in their head that they’re a “leader” the opinions of everyone else fade away and they indignantly thumb their nose at 30% approval ratings as they continue risking the lives of Americans all over the world for the benefit of no one, whilst they run the economic and intellectual future of this country into the ground back home.

Give me a president who is cognizant of the fact that they are in office not to be a “leader,” but to be a REPRESENTATIVE in a government that is of, for, and by the people.  

Give me Barack Obama.</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I don’t understand what is so “shameful” about these mailings.  The fact of the matter is Sen. Clinton’s proposed plan for health care DOES require ALL Americans to obtain health insurance of some form.  She also WAS a proponent of NAFTA during the presidency of her husband and HAS changed her position on that subject now.  Her campaign felt entitled to “expose discrepancies” in Sen. Obama’s campaign when he used political rhetoric from some of his campaign supporters.  Why should the Obama camp not outline these (in my opinion much more pertinent) caveats of Sen. Clinton’s policies?  </p>
<p>Sen. Clinton’s continued belittlement of Sen. Obama via her claims that his campaign is all empty promises fails to impress me.  Sen. Obama’s blueprint for America (available on his website) does outline substantive policies that he has developed.  </p>
<p>Furthermore, I personally believe it to be both arrogant and ignorant of Sen. Clinton to claim that she has it all figured out, and that her plan is the paramount solution. NOBODY has all the answers to the problems that America faces today.  The most important characteristic of the next president is going to be their ability to work together with the best minds America has to offer to reach solutions.  </p>
<p>I don’t want someone who is “ready to be commander-in-chief on day one.”  Someone like that is far too eager to become a “leader.”  Once someone gets it in their head that they’re a “leader” the opinions of everyone else fade away and they indignantly thumb their nose at 30% approval ratings as they continue risking the lives of Americans all over the world for the benefit of no one, whilst they run the economic and intellectual future of this country into the ground back home.</p>
<p>Give me a president who is cognizant of the fact that they are in office not to be a “leader,” but to be a REPRESENTATIVE in a government that is of, for, and by the people.  </p>
<p>Give me Barack Obama.</p>
