It's funny Hillary keeps talking about experience and being ready on day one. Hey, just a reminder Hillary- you voted for the Iraq war- and screwed the most important decision you had to make in the 21st century. How dare you try to separate yourself from NAFTA just for political gains. You've always sing NAFTA's high praises as a co-president with Bill. Every good thing that happened in the 90's you were part of, therefore, accept resposibilities for ones that went belly-up. People want CHANGE and not experience because we've seen people like Dick Cheney and Rumsfeld with all the experience in the world make some very, very bad decisions. It's certainly not the years spent in Washington but having the right JUDGEMENT from day one which OBAMA has rightly shown by opposite the war in Iraq when it was hard to do so. Please don't talk about experience or being ready on day one anymore because beat you hands down managing his campaign finances- that's the start.

Obama seems to feel he doesn't need the Hillary voters. If she loses the democratic primary Hillary should run as an independent. The democratic party has stabbed her in the back. She can be free to run based on what she truly believes rather than cater to the far left which only wants government handouts.

Hillary/Bloomberg 2008.
Why not?
As independent, why not?

All these spiteful comments from the Obama-bots are going to cost you votes from the Hillary supporters that you will desperately need for the general election if your candidate wins the nomination.

Don't expect the Republicans who've voted for Obama in the primary to vote for him in the general.

Keep up the good work.

So why are you blocking messages of support for Hillary? Shouldn't you be more concerned with profanity, racist, sexist or cruel and vicious comments being screened out? Why would you screen out positive messages of support? Who are the moderaters for posts? How are you evaluated or overseen? You should let the people speak, isn't that what the posts are for?

Obama hasn't the foggest idea how to handle Iraq. His biggest deal is to keep saying he did not vote to go to Iraq. There weren't any Al Quaeda in Iraq until Bush/Cheney got us there.That is beside the point now, we are there regardless of how we got there. To just keep say Bush got us there, Bush got us there, Bush got us there. People cheer when he says that. What is his plan to get us out? I would like to hear something besides how we got there. We all know that.

You Obama people are just like Rush's ditto heads. I guess you can't think for yourselfs. I think someday when you open your eyes your going to be very sorry. I am a die hard DEM that will never vote for your so called god Obama. Look up some onfo on your boy & you will find how is wife got a 200,000.00 dollar a year pay raise after he got elected in his state or how he help his friend get a 14 million dollar gov contract the one thats going on trail. There is so so so much more out there if you wake up & look. God help you all.

-Whew- She says

Hillary stop talking, you are annoying.

"HILLARY" YOU ARE BORN TO LEAD. KEEP KEEPING ON. REACH OUT FOR THE POLITICAL STARS SOON YOUR STARS WILL SURELY SHINE. SEE YOU IN THE OVAL OFFICE IN JANUARY 2008.

Obama supporters have a lot of time on their hands. Do any of you work or go to school? Are you on a govt. free ride already? Obama is not God and you make him look bad with your nasty attitudes towards anything that is nor pro-Obama.

You all need to take a good debate course. Obama will refund your tuition fees.

…yeah, right (smirk)

GO HILLARY!!!, we need you to turn the economy into prosperity, be strong , God is with you

Anybody have info on the Clinton's up-coming trial in Los Angeles?
I have tried to post about this for over a week. It has not been posted, so I have tried again.

Bloomberg was only going to run for President IF Hillary won the nomination.
My money is on Bloomberg supporting Obama (maybe more) soon after March 4th.
Great draw for Independents, moderate frustrated Republicans, and all of Naders gang.
Obama 08

WE need every one to Vote for the best one Hillary all the way to the White House

Not to mention that Bill Clinton was impeached. Why would anyone want
a president who's spouse was impeached?, among other scandals.

CNN THE GREATEST NEW NETWORK UPPORTIN OBAMA!

I am from Buffalo, NY, where we continue to loss jobs on regular basis. Our Sen. Hillary has absolutely done nothing about it……New Yorkers are getting sick of her fake promises
Go Obama !!!!!!!!

Obama/Bloomberg.

Hillary For President!!!!!!!!!!!!

Senator Clinton,

You will work with Blomberg over the next ? years, as Senator from New York.

Ohio for OBAMA 08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

CNN can't stand it that they have no power in stopping Hillary. They just can't stand it that she is taking them on and winning!

I REALLY LIKE YOU HILLARY…SOMETIMES BUT WHAT IS WITH THE COLLARS ON YOUR SUITS!!!

Hillary knows how to play nice - it never hurts to recognize someone you respect, so I would say that Hillary respects Bloomberg -not to be mistaken for Blommberg.

You guys make too much of this slanted reporting. Whether it is as President of the United States of America or as the Junior Senator from New York, she will be working with Bloomberg for as long as they are in office.

So, "my friends" you think Obama is getting all his money from "Christian" organizations? You think he's got a bunch of little-old-ladies collecting money at the local supermarket???? You need to wake up and smell the money "my friends".
I gotta hand it to ya' you Republicans are SLICK! You're playin' Obama like a cheap guitar! He touts how he has the support of thousands of "Obamicans" (Repentant republicans). They are helping him rob Hillary of the nomination just like they did with Nader in 2000. They are so afraid of running against Hillary that they are supporting Obama to get the nomination but once the general elections come around, McCain will whistle for them and they'll all go running back. Obama is so naive that he actually believes that he can just "hug" Republicans into changing their core beliefs. One thing about Republicans is that they are not some sort of "crazies" who just need someone to read them some poetry and they'll give up on Right to Choose, Capitol punishment, Immigration, Gun control, etc.

Who is to say that Barack Hussein Obama's own supporters did not put that picture of Obama's trip to Kenya dressed in traditional attire worn by area Muslims in 2006.

THEN TRY TO BLAME HILLARY R. CLINTON OR HER SUPPORTERS.

I will have you know, that people are intuitive, smart and can see through a dumb play like this photo.

No one believes anyone, BUT the supporters of Barack Hussein Obama, put this picture out on the internet….Alfter all; "yes, we can"

Where do any of you people get the idea that Hillary is toast? She raised a considerable amount of money from supporters who also do not believe she is toast. They contributed because they believe in her and her campaign and they want to see the campaign continue. We want her to run, we support her, we support what she stands for, we support her ideas, and think she is the best candidate. And as long as we continue to support her, why should she quit? For the good of the party? Why doesn't Obama quit for the good of the party? Sure he won a bunch of caucus states, where no more than 5% of the voters cast a vote. But he hasn't carried any of the big states, and if he can't carry them in the general election which I doubt he can, guess who wins the election in Nov? It ain't Obama ,dudes.

Obama / Bloomberg '08!!!

Beware the obama haters who call themselves democrats and Clinton admirers. They are not Democrats and they are not Clinton supporters. They are vehement right wing haters and Rush limbaugh advocates

Didn't she say she admired Obama too?

GO HILLARY!!! We can see it in the air that you will be the nominee! We need to strengthen our fiscal policy and we need someone like you to restore our diplomatic relations outside the U.S. Go HILLARY!

Just a heads-up: Bloomberg's name is misspelled in the final line of the article.

Blah, blah, blah…..

Hey, if we want to get rid of the enemy in Iraq, let's make them listen to Hillary for 24 hours. They'll surrender.

Who is Blommberg?!

this must be a sigh of relief for her.

Yes…she will be back in New York working with her constituency.

Mr. Bloomberg, will never be on a Clinton ticket.. He to smart for that Hillary have to many unanswer questions regarding to her taxes and other dealings.

Go away Cruella. Nobody cares.

Hurray for Mrs. Cinton, our next president of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

So it's official.

Only one person left in the campaign that was actually THERE on 9/11 and actually DID something about it.

Like securing billions of federal funding to rebuild the WTC, like ensuring the rescue workers had healthcare, like helping the 9/11 widows….

how come no one's speaking about that?

As a Senator from New York.

So, instead of one woman having to face opposition from six (6) men, she has to compete with only five (5). She's up to the task because her platform (especially for America's children) is at least five times as good as any of theirs. Go Hillary. May The Force be with you.

OBAMA IS GOING TO LANDSLIDE HILLARY IN TEXAS, OHIO, AND THE REST OF THE TWO STATES.

It is so sad to see Hillary like this. I wish she would turn over her taxes and the evidence of years of her experience.

They have stripped obama and his family naked, why in the world does hillary think ohio or texas or anyone else will vote for her and she is in hiding. what makes hillary thinks she does not have to play by the rules and create her own.

it is so sad.

CNN, i caught yet another spelling error in one of your article.

getting so caught up with Obama these days, you guys cant even use spellcheck?

"Clinton said she looked forward to working with Blommberg for the "next couple of years.""

You obviously mean Bloomberg right?

She looked forward to working with him "the next couple of years?" , Does she know something we don't? Will she be the President working with him or the senator from New York?

Hey, CNN? Didn't spell his name correctly the last time around. He isn't "Blommberg."

"Clinton said she looked forward to working with Blommberg for the 'next couple of years.'"

… as a senator from New York, though. Heh.

new this is a man who catch the subway to work in New York City
what wil she talk to him about

the key words "next two years" WHERE ? ..in the senate? i bet as senators..

..OBAMA 08

..OBAMA 08

..OBAMA 08

You need all the friendly alliance, you can keep on your side; Hillary. As a result, what you're doing sounds good to me.

Mahalo Bloomberg!

Hillary the HOPE of 08 or Vote Republican

Its all about who will be the best president!

I my view, Hillary is dreaming.

I am sure Clinton bribed him to stay out. She's got to be the most corrupt and manipulative woman in the world. I would like to see a woman as President but definitely not Hillary Clinton.

Obama '08.

Clinton - You can work with Bloomberg while you are in the Senate for the "next couple of years." The rest of America doesn't want you. Go Back To New York.

Sounds like she either plans on nominating him as VP (laughable) or working with him on local New York issues for the next 4 years. Maybe she's finally gearing up for a concession speech after March 4th. We can only hope.

Hillary should follow his lead!

It’s the media and pundits like to dance on top of her grave made the damage-!!!!!!!!!!!!! Shame on you!!!!!!!!!!! There are fools buy anything from media - SHAME on you both !!!!!!!!! go back to Britney spears, she is got discharged from hospital if you happened to forgot her or go back to some Hollywood stupid story , the fools paying attention need some change too

Has anyone else heard a rumor that if Obama fails to get the Democratic Nomination that Bloomberg intends to fund him as an independent?…

lol @ my previous post.

anywho i think Bloomberg isn't running because he realize he will not win. I'm sure he really was trying to get this done

In other words… "WHEW, THAT WAS CLOSE!" What a phony!

OBAMA '08

Obama & Bloomberg ticket, "Yes We Can"

What's the deal with people being in love with mayors of New York City, anyway? I mean, geeze, there ARE other cities in the world.

POINTLESS: non-bid should = END OF STORY.

We get PLENTY of opinions, CNN, can we get back to fact-finding? You know…NEWS….

Stuff like Obama saying "Al Qaeda was NOT in Iraq prior to our invasion". HOW HAS THAT STORY NOT EXPLODED ONTO THE SCENE TODAY? Has the media been told to move on?

But to play along and return to subject at hand: you spelled Bloomberg right 4 out of 5 times anyway.

She probably breathed a huge sigh of relief! She already has one candidate she can't beat, better not make it two.

I'm glad that she looks forward to working with Major Bloomberg for the "next couple of years"… in the senate!

She should have taken that approach at Nader entering the race. Her and Obama came off looking arrogant with regards to Nader.

Obama should consider Bloomberg as running mate if nominated.

And the march goes on but she said I look forward to working with you for the next couple of years .Does this mean she thinks she wont win the nomination for president.Maybe theres somthing there.Stay tuned for the next episode of Hillary goes to Washington

There are numerous typos in this article. I also like the quoted part at the end…CNN making it look like Hillary is conceding. When will CNN ever stop the Hillary bashing….

I think he is changing his mind about this. Didn't he say that he agrees that there should be plans, and agreement before meeting them?

"I lokk forward to working with bloomberg for the next couple of years"? Does this means she has conceded defaet to Obama and is going back to New York?

Kenisha, Kingston

Clinton's just happy she won't have to face him as an independent in the general election (if she gets there). Heck, she may tap him to be her VP if she loses the Democratic nomination and runs as an independent. Now that would take the wind out of Obama's sails.

Is she going to claim his "experience" as part of her "35 years" because she happens to be a serving senator at the same time he is mayor?

What ever happened to all those jobs you promised, Hillary? I guess NAFTA just kind of got in the way of that one, heh? Oh that's right!You "planned" on Al Gore being president. Next lame excuse? You can't lie any better now than you did when you were First Lady.

I am so sorry to hear the Bloomberg has chosen to not seek the presidency. That means that I will have to vote Republican if Obama is nominated as the candidate for the Democratic Party.

Obama as the Senate Foreign Relations subcommittee didn't do what he supposed to do to protect the Americans showed that he is inexperience. With the authority given he failed to act, showed that he is a great talker but don't know how to work - This shows the real his weakness of lack of experience.

Too risky to hand him the whole nation.

Not newsworthy, Clinton News Network…

Obama and Bloomberg should team up!!!

IF YOU CANT MANAGE THE MONEY YOU HAVE NOW, HOW WOULD YOU MANAGE THE MONEY IN THE WHITE HOUSE?

Does it really mattI guess I just have to keep posting these factual info to piss off the Hillary bloggers who are censuring such a free speech

Now, it really does not matter; Hillary can win ALL the next races and will not get the nomination!!! Recall that the Dems ALWAYS SPLIT the votes. So, one would need to win (a) with large numbers, not just win or (b) win many states, as Obama has done to stay ahead.

So, this process is only creating a mess for the Dems as the Republicans UNITE and find their footings. So, go ahead and give your votes to Hillary, drag this on, and let us wait for the outcome– a total mess.

Hillary has NO chance whatsoever of overcoming the odds against her. She started as the frontrunner with all superdelegates, and all the Dems can say is "firewall" states for Hillary to stay in the race– for what? I guess bigger states like CA and NY did not help all that much either!!!er, this late in the game?

Ready on day one?
The high-priced senior consultants to Mrs. Clinton, of New York, have emerged as particular targets of complaints, given that they conceived and executed a political strategy that has thus far proved unsuccessful.
The firm that includes Mark Penn, Mrs. Clinton’s chief strategist and pollster, and his team collected $3.8 million for fees and expenses in January; in total, including what the campaign still owes, the firm has billed more than $10 million for consulting, direct mail and other services, an amount other Democratic strategists who are not affiliated with either campaign called stunning.

Is this who you want running the country?

Clinton Donors Worried by Campaign’s Spending
By MICHAEL LUO, JO BECKER and PATRICK HEALY
This article was reported by Michael Luo, Jo Becker and Patrick Healy and was written by Mr. Healy.
Nearly $100,000 went for party platters and groceries before the Iowa caucuses, even though the partying mood evaporated quickly. Rooms at the Bellagio luxury hotel in Las Vegas consumed more than $25,000; the Four Seasons, another $5,000. And top consultants collected about $5 million in January, a month of crucial expenses and tough fund-raising.
Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton’s latest campaign finance report, published Wednesday night, appeared even to her most stalwart supporters and donors to be a road map of her political and management failings. Several of them, echoing political analysts, expressed concerns that Mrs. Clinton’s spending priorities amounted to costly errors in judgment that have hamstrung her competitiveness against Senator Barack Obama of Illinois.
“We didn’t raise all of this money to keep paying consultants who have pursued basically the wrong strategy for a year now,” said a prominent New York donor. “So much about her campaign needs to change — but it may be too late.”
