Very true, do we really want the Obamateur in the white house?

“It’s 3 a.m. and your children are safe and asleep. Who do you want answering the phone?”

Obama thank you very much.

I am certain I want Hillary Clinton to respond to that phone call as my grandchildren are sleeping. Hillary can see the whole picture, has the knowledge, experience, and heart to lead our country.

The United States of America will be safe in her hands.

“It’s 3 a.m. and your children are safe and asleep. Who do you want answering the phone?”

I want Barack Obama to answer that phone.

I want Barack to answer the phone

In the event of a "crisis," it should be Hillary who answers that call.
"Hello,…" EXPERIENCE here.

Hillary 08!!!

A now she resorts to fear…typical.

Sheer desperation.

Clinton's campaign gets uglier and uglier as it goes down.

For the good of the party, end this on March 4th! The logner Clinton hangs in there, with no chance of victory, but just to tear down and smear the eventual nominee, she is aiding the GOP.

Hillary, do the RIGHT thing!! Please end this now!

Poor Poor Hillary and Poor Poor Bill!

They are so desperate!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Neither of them has good judgement.

The Republicans are speaking of the "surge" like that forgives the decision to be there in the first place! For those who are capable of remembering, the surge would not have been something we had to resort to if we had not invaded Irag in the first place. POOR DECISION that finally find a solution are no less a Poor Decision.

It's easy to oppose a war when you're in the Illinois legislature with no responsibility or knowledge about it.

It's time to play hardball. GO HILLARY!!!

“It’s 3 a.m. and your children are safe and asleep. Who do you want answering the phone?”

I dunno, I think you without makeup on at 3 a.m. is more scary than anything that can be on the other side of that phone call…

Nobody has listened to her sophisticated foreign policy proposals. They are better, but people don't care. So, she decided to kick it up and try to hit people where they live. Some people will not like it. However, it should at least wake-up some people. I like Obama, but I want Hillary taking that call. Beyond all the personal attacks that the anti-Hillary group likes to level, I bet a lot of other people out there want Hillary to take that call as well.

This Clinton ad sure sounds a lot like something the RNC would run.

Why did Hillary decide to steal the "Tested and Ready" line from Rudy? If it didn't work on the Republican side, how is it going to work with Dems?

The fear card won't be bought by the people again. "Save your children, vote for Hillary" … ridiculous. Hillary should be taking time to show us how new, progressive ideas are the solution, rather tha n telling us to be worried about our children dying in some attack.

I would like Hilary to answer the call. She's ready!

This is really an ad. that would be great for John McCain. When I first saw it I thought of John McCain immediately. Even when I saw Sen. Clinton answering the phone, I actually thought that she was making the call … to John McCain! This ad will not help her IMO because she is giving free advertisement for the republican candidate.

There's no doubt in my mind that Hillary is the better qualified candidate on foreign policy. I believe that Obama has good intentions but we're in too much trouble to think that we can
all just sit down and break bread together. We can thank the current administration for that.
I still say Clinton/Obam is a team that would be quite the force to reckon with.

What bunk! When are people going to realize Obama may have opposed the war but he was not in office to face that vote. He as in Chicago and had no voice to stop it. He has voted every time to support Bush and the war he created.

Hillary, must you REALLY ask who I want answering the phone? Well, just to give you a hint…it's not YOU!

Wow.. she will be up at night just to take that Phone call…??? I would want my President to sleep well so he could make sound judgements in the morning…

Agian, why would I call White House at 3am when my Children are safe and sleeping…?

It's simple:

Hillary Clinton is running the same campaign George Bush has used to subjugate America the past 8 years. Fear, Fear, Fear. In the corporate world, it's known as FUD (Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt). This is Rovian at its worst.

Texas, Ohio, Vermont, and Rhode Island: please tell this campaign America is above these tactics and that we can no longer be hoodwinked it voting for someone because they try to scare us.

This is a great add! And my answer is that I want it to be President Obama in the White House to pick up the phone at 3 A.M. when there is a crisis somewhere in the world. Hillary acts schizophrenic during the day and early evening hours as it is, I can't even imagine how moody she would be at 3 P.M. Good Lord protect us from her mood swings. Hillary will do anything to get to the power. And why would I believe someone whose husband looked at the nation in the eye and told us that he didn't have any relationship with "that" woman when in fact it was proven to be a lie?

Shame on you Hillary!!!!!!!!! As a mom, I am tried of having politicans use my children to try to scare me into supporting them. My choice is HOPE! OBAMA 2008!

Who wants a Clinton in charge in a real crisis situation, she couldn't even avoid a marriage crisis, she is the last person I want in charge if a phone rings at the White House. Sorry Hillary, but no.

no doubt in my mind-Hilary Clinton-having obama on that phone reminds one of Jimmy Carter and his "love your enenies" policy-never mind that they are evil and will only tell you what they want you to hear-then stab you in the back. American Idols do not a President make–even a cute one who says he looks good in both boxers and
regular skivies!

I don't want someone in the White House who will be more interested in what is good for her political career than in actually solving a crisis. No thanks.

It's fine to oppose a war, BUT WE ARE ALREADY IN A WAR.

The Obama argument about his past opinions is old. We all know that the votes were based on info given to them at the time. We need someone who can answer about the future!

Obama blundered on a question about AQ in Iraq. He's clueless.

HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT OR 4 YEARS OF MORE BUSH (MCCAIN)VS PRESIDENT 101 (OBAMA). YOU CHOOSE AMERICA.

CNN, please.

i would want BARACK OBAMA to pick up that phone, hillary!!!
yeeeeeehawww from texas!

In the ad by Ms. Clinton … who do you want to answer that telephone call … as a mom, and American citizen … BARACK OBAMA resoundingly! Judgment is the key to handling crises … not so-called "experience."

IT DOES NOT WORK!!! IT WILL BACKFIRE!!!

GO OBAMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WE LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OBAMA HAS NOTHING OF HIS OWN. XEROX MACHINE FOR SURE. LOOSER, AMERICA WILL REALISE WHEN IT IS TOO LATE WHENYOU HAVE ENTERED THE WHITE HOUSE. BY THEN IT IS OVER FOR AMERICA

I guess, let the fear mongering begin. Didn't we want a break from 4 years of this. Oh well.

The ad asks a great question!

My answer: I want Obama to answer the phone.

Darth Cheney knows world leaders and the military too…it doesn't mean we want him as president.

As far as "tested" well, neither Hillary or Obama is. But neither was any recent president.

Sometimes I wonder,does Hillary know that she is 60 years old and almost a grandma? That she is running against a Young man of 46?

What makes her think she can convince any sane person that a 60 year old woman will be better able to answer the phone at 3.am than a 46 year old man?

Yes its not about gender and age but sincerely can you ignore these?

Infact she shocks us with the kind of things she says.

Everybody (race, gender,age etc notwithstanding) knows that the strength and virility of a 60 year old woman cannot in anyway be compared with the strength and virility of a 46 year old man.

Everybody but Hillary…and maybe Bill.

Sorry I meant 8 years.

I know who I DON'T want in the White House: someone who flips out like a raving lunatic because she's asked the first question during a debate.

Billary, this campaign is not about experience or how you've visited and being friends with every country in the world, but about JUDGEMENT and making the right decision for america.

HILLARY when the phone rang at 3am to Vote for the War in Iraq, you and George Bush and John McCain voted YES.

Obama made the right Judgement and said NO to Iraq War!

So this time, I cannot be fooled twice. And to answer your question: Who do you want answering the phone at 3am?”

BARRACK OBAMA - VOTE FOR CHANGE!

GO OBAMA!!!

I have come to the conclusion that this has become a very unfair election. McCain won by default and now Republicans are voting for Obama just so Hillary doesn't win. It breaks my heart. Hillary should be the next President.

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

This is just more SHAMEFUL FEAR MONGERING by the Clinton Campaign.

Clinton is not ready to lead on day one BECAUSE SHE WAS WRONG ON DAY ONE!

Clinton is SHIFTY, DISHONEST, AND DIVISIVE. There is NO WAY she is ready to lead this country.

Hillary Clinton, please KEEP YOUR WORD and release your tax returns. What are you hiding?

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

This is disgusting fear mongering at its finest. Thanks Camp Clinton, for pushing our democratic values out and inviting ugly right-wing Rovian tactics into the debate.

The next time you decide to "shame" one of the candidates in this race, Hillary, why don't you turn your big, fat hammy finger on yourself?

More fear-mongering…what is wrong with these people?

I'm growing tired of this experience thing with Hillary. It doesn't work. Bill Clinton had no Federal experience either and is considered a great President. While I agree to some extent that experience may help, it doesn't help if you don't have sound judgements. Each candidate can throw issues at each other. They always find something or someone to dispel those issues. It is up to the voters to make up their minds. I only ask that all commenters stop with the negative talk (conservitave or liberal). Let the candidates do their jobs and you do yours by voting, whoever that may be.

WHy can't you JUST have an article about Hillary. Why do you always have to add something about Obama and try to take away from something Hillary has done? Please stop and have fair press!! No Hillary , no vote in this household!

I was going to vote for Hillary before the primary started, but after I saw Barack Obama's speeches and debates and read his books, I knew that Obama would make a far better president than Hillary -

Hillary, given her huge advantage (name recognition, money, and access to the best consulting people in the field), could not hire the right people, delieve the right message that make people vote for her - when face defate, she did not show inner strength and character that would be a must for a president -

So, if Hillary loses, it wasn't anything wrong, it is the right thing - she should lose because she has showed herself to be NOT competent at all to be the president - in a word, she just not qualified for the job.

It's 3AM, and my children are asleep, and the phone at the White House rings - Who do I want answering the phone? Maybe it's Bill, sneaking home from a booty call, calling because he can't find his keys!

No thanks, I'll let Obama answer it. At least I know where he's been all night.

Ring. Ring.

"Barack Obama, president of the United States of America, here."

Oh, thank God.

When did it become American to be scared all the time?

Obama will have no idea what to do when that phone rings. He is clueless.

Hillary all the way.

The real point of the ad is not fear - but that we are electing a President - not a feel good Guy.

You just play into Obama every time Hillary.

Fear mongering at its finest.

We want Obama to answer the phone.

Typical fear mongering. Are we sure she isn't a Republican???

I want Barack answering the phone. You never know which of Hillary's multiple personalities will pick up anyway…..

Oh Senator Clinton…. fear mongering has worked so well this primary. I really think this commercial will push you over the top.

Hillary's decades of experience in the U.S. Senate, and her years as a 4-star General clearly give her the Experience edge over Obama.

What's that? She actually has LESS experience than Obama and all of these things I've been reading about her having more experience are lies? Wow, what a surprise!

Hillary Clinton has no military experience and no executive experience. She has one term as a U.S. Senator. Unless she obtained experience by osmosis from her husband (whose military moves were a joke) I don't believe I'd want her answering the phones in the White House over Obama. Maybe she wants to be the White House switchboard operator.

and who … what will you do

The advertising wars have begun!! Obama hasn't got a clue about foreign policy and this, in part, is what will sink his ability to be president. Hillary knows what she's doing when it comes to foreign policy and she is, and will, protect our country.

Hillary '08

Clinton Camp still getting it wrong. If they are pushing the agenda that the next President of the United States have the most experience, "Whether it’s someone who already knows the world’s leaders, knows the military", then they are serving it up to John McCain. Sen Clinton actually looked good in the last debate (aside from the whining about being asked questions first, which the next president would have to answer). She had substance in her answers, the answers were complete and she seems in command of the knowledge. She should stick to that. If she keeps beating the drum of old - vs - new, Experience - vs - inexperience, she will loose and loose bad!

Hillary, I don't want the phone call to disturb my kids sleep. That is so slick.
Children already are busy making through this life. They should not be involved in politics.
I hope Obama won't use my kids as a pray to get in the White House as Hillary just did.

OBAMA!!!!!!!! VOTE FOR CHANGE!!!!!!!!

since 2004 americans have been forced to vote for politicians out of fear. hillary clinton has hit an all time low with this ad. this is fear-mongering and insults my intelligence. if this is the way she sees herself winning the dem. nomination then americans will be forced in november to vote for mccain. because mccain has the better judgement and will display that judgement at 3am while the children are sleeping.

FEAR, FEAR, FEAR, FEAR, FEAR

Who? Well, it would be the candidate that has shown the greatest amount of respect during this race. Respect for voters. Respect for tbe other candidates. Respect for the process and the rules of our country. The candidate that has shown management skills, peoiple skills, organizational skills. The candidate that has shown consistently good judgement - even when others disagreed.

That would be Barack Obama.

HILLARY , READY ON DAY 1

Yesterday, I tried to post my feelings along the same lines. There was a post about a "kid" playing in a sand box. It never made it through moderation. I will try again. With two wars, a looming recession, Pakistan in chaos, turmoil in the mid east, gas approaching $ 4,00 a gallon, Iran wanting to go nuclear and the guy in North Korea not doing what he agreed to, I can only say God Help us-God help us! If we put this kid in charge. He makes a good speech, but I don't think a good speech will take care of all these issues. I "hope" the Obama supporters "change" their mind before they vote.

I believe that Obama has proven that he has no understanding of national security and what it will take to maintain the level of security that we currently enjoy. Thanks to Mr. Bush and our wonderful troops, we, as Americans, can sleep well at night.

If Hillary answers, she will likely whine, "Why do I always get the first question?!"

Barack Obama has my full confidence.

Way to little, Way to late. Here's a novel idea: How about an ad that portrays a whining or crying hillary before the joint chiefs of staff when they don't agree with her proposals. War for all intent and purpose is a man thing that requires skill sets and attributes women just do not have not to mention good and sound "Judgement" which hillary clinton clearly does not have being she was for this war from the begining and now says she made a mistake. Picture that…a women that admits to making a mistake, it's beyond hypocrasy.

Mom in PA - GOOD FOR YOU!!!
I TOTALLY AGREE!! SHAME ON YOU HILLARY CLINTON FOR TRYING TO USE PEOPLE'S CHILDREN TO SCARE A VOTE FOR YOU FROM PARENTS!!!!

SHAME! SHAME! SHAME!

I REJECT AND DENOUNCE YOUR FEAR-MONGERING TACTICS!!

GO OBAMA!!!!!!!
YES WE CAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sounds like the old politics of fear at work. I don't believe this will work on Democratic voters who are sick of this game. I believe that Barack Obama can win the general election by inspiring new voters to care about the future of this country again, not by scaring people into voting for him.

That being said, I would like to thank both Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton for being brave enough to do something that has never been done in our history. It is about time we have a group of candidates that actually looks like America. Whoever wins, both of these candidates deserve our respect and appreciation. Thank you Sens Clinton and Obama!

Barack would have to put them on hold and then get advice from someone else. I just cannot support him. He is an amateur.

I don't want Hilary answering the phone, and then chaning her mind about her decision years later after so many lives have been taken!

OBAMA 08′!!

Hmmmm…when positivity does not work, try scaring the heck out of everyone with ads like these! Does anyone recall the "nuclear attack" Johnson ads with the countdown??

Hillary - you are getting DESPERATE! Weren't you supposed to be coronated by now? And it has come down to THIS?

Shame!

there is only one person who should be answering that phone and it is Hillary!
Go HIllary!!

It should be it is 3:00 AM Hillary..do you know where Bill is?

WHAT HAPPENED TO ENDING THE POLITICS OF FEAR CLINTON????? YOU ARE USING REPUBLICAN TACTICS. THAT IS HOW BUSH WON THE LAST ELECTION!!!!

OBAMA 08

Clinton will attend funeral for Dallas police officer.

That’s one of many reasons why I think that Hillary is the best among these candidates, fighting for the real issues and caring about ordinary people as well.

Hillary is caring and thoughtful. She even cares about and understands those friends who switched their support from her to Obama. She respects her opponents. This is a great character and moral that we Americans desperately need, especially from our president.

Haha….Hillary using Bush's fear mongering tactics. Don't fall for Hillary's fear ads people….she is the same old tired Bush-Clinton clan.

gObama!

If Barak Obama is just a "blank screen," Hillary is nothing more than a "hot flash."

How dare she portray a man with a lifetime of achievements that even most Americans don't have under their belt at his age, and who has fought descrimination his whole life to achieve what he has done as "just a blank screen." She really is getting desperate now, isn't she? Or is that just the hormonal, post-menopusal mood swing talking? Do we really want THAT in the White House with its finger on the "button" while are children are home, safe, and sleeping?

I said it before and I'll say it again. Obama is just an empty shell.
No experience over the years, was never in the military, who is he
to lead this country….just words, words,and more empty words.

Hillary has had the experience and I will take her over Mr. Obama
anytime…

Is he going to go to school if elected (he reminds me of Pres. Bush)
who had to take instructions in the beginning.

What a mistake it would be for him to be the President of the U.S.

The clear answer is Obama — steady and wise. Gosh WHICH Hillary would answer? Crabby Hillary? Sweet Hillary? Misty Hillary? Theatrical Hillary? Talk about a roll of the dice!
(CNN, this is my 8th attempt in the last week to add a comment, and you haven't posted even one. Why?)

If this situation would happened ,Obama would probably call his campaign manager to find out what he should do. Now ,if this happened during a debate he could then simply listen to Hillary.

This is not a joke. The junior senator, Obama, simply does not have the experience. In fact, one of the major TV station ran a video of Obama when he first became a senator. He was asked if he was considering a run for president. Obama himself said : I am not ready to run for president as I need more experience.

This video should be shown again and frequent.

Well…I would not want Hillary to take the call because she would go ballistic and scream "Why do I always get the first call??!! It's so unfair!!"

Yes, Hillary…spend millions on a TV ad on a message that has proven ineffective over the last 10 election, if not the primary as a whole. Uh,change trumps experience in this election.

What's your new campaign theme? "Hire me." That's also brilliant. Remind people how much it sucks looking for a job. Link that hopeless feeling to your candidacy. That will really inspire a vote a confidence.

"Hillary Clinton 2008: Pity Me, Save the World"

Obama - bring it home, homie.

Excellent Ad.

Have you seen how Hillary has been in the last debate and in the last few tV commercials before the debate . She is almost cracking under pressure. Of course I want Obama to answer the phone!!!

Hillary of course!!!

Shameless. Ruthless. Republican/Rovian? Hillary.

I want Obama to answer the phone.

In other words Hillary is telling us. IF YOU DON'T VOTE FOR ME YOUR CHILDREN WILL ALL DIE,DIE,DIE!!

Pack it up Hillary, you're done.

Is there anything Hillary won't try to insult voter's intelligence? Now its
our children. My 5 year old saw this ad and it scared her to death. She
said "mommy, please don't let the Hillary get me".

Obama 08.

Barack Obama will answer the call. With intelligence and common sense. That make me feel safe. The bad judgement of Hillary contributed to send our troops to the wrong country.

Two words: President Obama

OF COURSE HILARY SHOULD ANSWER THAT CALL.
VERY OBVIOUS NO?
OBAMA IS RUNNING AROUND CHASING VOTERS WHEN HE MISSED A LOT OF MOST IMPORTANT VOTES IN THE SENATE AND ALSO THE OVERSIGHT COMMITEE.CME ON OBAMA YOU TO YOUNG FOR THIS ONE.

Please explain to me why this tactic is any different from the GOP telling us that if we vote for Democrats, we're more likely to be attacked!!!!!!!

My god, she is using Karl Rove's playbook!

My answer is the Democrat nimination in November. But for now, I would answer Obama if I was certain he has enough experience. This is a taugh job and we cannot give it to someone whom looks likable or talks good. We have to give it to someone who has shown is able to handle it. I will go for Clinton for so many reason regardless whether she is a good talker or not, or even whther I like her or not. This is not about Clinton or Obama; this is about our Country, and also about the world.

Obama? Vote for change? Somebody to hope for? Excuse me, you don't have the track record and the credibility to pick up that phone. You opposed the Iraq war! It is just like ignoring the 9/11 just happened because of some conspiracy theory. The Iraq/Afghanistan war was the resolve of that fateful day, Mr. Obama, lest the United States of America forget.

Mrs. Clinton? Absolutely, no doubt, YES! Ohio, Texas, Vermont and Rhode island the country needs your votes to get this remarkable woman to get into office. The stakes for this is the US economy which the Clintons have good track record in dealing with.

that 'gulf' ad says he opposed the war from the start? Well, it's one thing to oppose and it's another to have actually had to vote on it which he did not. Obama is a hypocrite. He voted to fund the war when he finally did come on the scene just a few short years ago. His whole campaign has been based on what he didn't do in the past. Personally, I don't see how that qualifies him for anything much less Commander-in-Chief. He needs to go back to not voting in congress, (voting 'present' 130 times), and go back to being the typical politician that he has pretended not to be.
Anybody but Obama 08…….

After seeing the last debate, I would definately want Obama to get that call. She gets flustered and testy under pressure.

wow. And Hillary thinks Obama is acting like Karl Rove?

Re: Gen McPeak,
Can you imagine if BO were President before Desert Storm and he opposed the war 'from the start'? Iraq would be all over Kuwait and the hugh Oil reserves and our gas would have been over $10.00 14 years ago. Hind sight is great - however HRC had just seen 9/11 close up and personal in her very own state, plus Bush having a 80% approval rating, plus Gen. Colin Powell (who by the way far out ranked Gen. McPeak during desert storm, was Secretary of State who convinced congress and the UN that Iraq had WMD). How would you have voted - and remember the vote was overwhelming.

I for one would feel much safer with HRC at 3 AM (not to mention Bill nearby) then with BO stuttering and wondering what Hillary would do!

OBAMA. OBAMA. OBAMA.

I want Barack answering the phone, Hillary. Stop trying to sound like George W. Bush; maybe you'll get more votes.

HILLARY = REPUBLICAN

I would like barack to answer the phone. He knows how to deal with any body people can judge by seeing how he handled his campaign.

Ring, Ring..

"Hello, Bill Clinton here, How may I help you?"

Hillary is too incompetent on foreign affairs as evident in her vote to GO TO WAR!

OBAMA '08!!!!

"FEAR BOMB."

Hillary's experience has shown that she may answer the phone and then make the wrong decision.

I want Obama to pick up the phone.

Wow is Obama petty! I don't want someone like that in the White House. He just can't let Hillary have what may be her last moment; he always has to "lash" back. He sees she has a good commercial out now and he has to come on the very next day with another on to try to top her - he thinks this is a beauty contest - He's a big baby. Come on Hillary, show us you can make it happen. I will stand by Hillary no matter what.

Someone who doesn't even know which version of herself she is and is borderline personality disorder. Someone who is playing the fear card just like Bush and Cheney. Someone who will save humanity from the mushroom cloud and the big bad terrorists.

What a joke the woman has become! Actually, more of a joke than she already was.

She couldn't handle being asked the first question in a debate, critcism on NAFTA or in a health care flyer, how is she going to handle any type of crisis? Shame on you bad guys for threatening our children while they sleep at night and why are you bothering me at this ungodly hour while I sit at my desk working the night shift form my last bad commercial!

Whose fear-mongering now? Who is taking plays from the Karl Rove playbook? When did Karl Rove join Hillary's campaign? If it is security
you are concerned about, shouldn't you be voting for Republican's in the first place? I mean, when did Hillary Clinton do anything about
securtiy. The Clinton's are scared to release their tax returns?!! What
the hell would they do if they had a real crisis situation?

I'd much rather have Hillary on the end of the line. Having Obama repling " a duh, um, er, aw,duh - I"ll let Hillary answer that" is not an option!

Wow, using fear as a campaign tactic. How refreshing. I think I'd like the man who had the good judgement to oppose this God awful mess of a war to answer that call. Please be the one to pick up, Senator Obama.

I will pick Judgement over Experience anytime. Sorry Hillary Clinton

Does the Hillary camp realize they need landslide victories in both Ohio and Texas in order to even come close to winning the nomination? And do they know it is impossible at this point? Have they looked at the current polls?

They may want to borrow some of Huckabee's miracles.

Hillary has great experience and great plans. Unfortunately, her name is Hillary Clinton and (for some unexplained reason) she polarizes people.

When she loses Texas (and possibly Ohio), she needs to drop out of the race so Barack Obama can defeat Dubya 2.0 in November.

this week we saw Hillary being HAPPY, ANGRY, SARCASTIC, ANGRY

Which Hillary would she answer the call?

I think I want the person with the cool head.

How is this ad any different then 2004 (fearing up votes). In the end, this is the last desperate act of a campaign that is down to its final few days of viability.
The Clinton camp can twist the ad any way they want, but if you are showing children sleeping and its about their safety, then its clearly fear mongering. Otherwise, why not show a school, a factory, a hospital.

It will all be over soon. That ad represents everything people are tired of seeing.

Hillary has been put to the test. That test was the 2002 vote on whether to invade Iraq or not. She failed the test…

The democratic party, the party of fearmongering. Thanks Hillary.

Why would I want her to answer that call? They didn't fix the problem back in 1993 when we were first attack in New York City! NOW!!! Too late for her to answer the call for my kids. Obama is more the welcome to answer for us in my home.

I want Hillary to take the call for President Obama … LOL

Hillary haters, shame on you!!!!

Whenever Hillary does something, you degrade it!

Folks be fair and be smart. Don't make the same mistake 7 years ago.

Call on the whole world! Vote for Hillary!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How sad that she will do anything to win, to the point of putting doubt about Obama, so when he does win she will have already supplied the Republicans with their ammo….There are several military personnel who are in support of Obama, too.

Please tell me Ms. Clinton how much experience do you have. If you are going on your 8 years in the White House, then you too were aware of Bin Laden.

What to see more on the Clintons Google Clinton Convicts and then you can see what we will be getting phone calls about at 3 a.m.

Release your tax returns and WH papers, Ms. Clinton.

Hillary gets condemned whether she does or she doesn't simply because the media played favorites to Obama. We supported her for over the past year as our leader and now you abandon her. And they talk about canidates flip flopping. Stand by the one that 1 year ago we know would lead our country out of debt and war instead of someone who hid in the shadows for the past year in order to be the new kid on the block right now. He was out there one year ago, where were you???
Pat

Why does Hillary resort to fear tactics?

Taking a page from Bush's book?

I'll 2nd alot of people above — I'd rather have Barack Obama answering that phone. I got a chance to be apart of one of the "big rallies and the big speeches" last night and it was a great experience. This guy is poised to bring about "Real" change, we just have to give him the opportunity.

Obama 08!

Hillary needs to answer the call!
I don't want to "Hope" my grandchildren are safe. Hillary knows the answers to make it happen.

History dictates that a republican is best suited to answer that call…

It’s 3 a.m. and your children are safe and asleep. Who do you want answering the phone?”

Gee, that's a tough question. We're-gonna-be-fine Hillary? Shame-on-you-Hillary? Crying-Hillary? Meet-me-in-Ohio Hillary? Life-is-so-unfair-because-of-my-gender-Hillary?

I think overall we'd be safer if Obama answered the phone than someone who is showing all the symptoms of having a multiple personality disorder.

Clinton going with fear mongering now. So how is she different then George Bush?

one more thing…i'm tired of Hillary's No You Can't campaign. you can lead a country with the mantra "No You Can't"!

The phone rings at 3am at the White House….Hillary picks it up and its the Secret Service telling her Bill is face down in the gutter somewhere with an intern under each arm

Scare tactics as USUAL.

Enough of her. I was starting to lean…but no….

Not this time Hillary. I'm sorry, but you're finished.

Frankly, I'm voting for Obama. But if Hillary wins, I'm not sure Ill vote for her given the way she's run her campaign.

Other than that, I have no problem with the Clintons other than that they're a little more Right than I lean.

If i can't win, I don't want my party to win. Truly selfish. Why would I want this person as our president?

It is Bush calling to tell Clinton what to do…since she cannot make up her mind herself……she is a fear mongerer like Bush/McCain and the rest……I don't appreciate her condescending, pandering approach to voters…it is extremely insulting to me…..I cannot obviously speak for everybody else…..she already said she will continue bush isolationism and would not change bush policies….how will this be a change from what we are doing now????

Russia and China get all the oil we have "freed" from Iraq….no leaders talk to us, Turkey invades Iraq because we don't like them either……and they do not respect us…..calling us hypocrites and they are correct….I have an ad to hillary: "hill, how's our current strategy of doing everything alone and betraying our "friends" which you propose to continue working???, answer: it's not!!!!"

margaret…., you are a very good example of why people seems to put women down and the sad part of it all your name suggest you are a woman…what has age and gender got to do with being a leader. I honestly think Obama is a greater candidate if evrything a president have to do is briing people together…but I believe Hillary will be better in handling crisis.

Of course we want Hillary to be there.

Obama is a joke.

if its 3am in the morning and my kids are sleeping why would any1 answer the phone? besides when hillary answered the phone back in 02 she did ok'ed what ever Bush wanted whats going to be so different this time? Obama 08

The only person that I want to answer the phone at 3:00am, in the morning, at the Whitehouse, starting in 2009, is President Barack Obama. He is the only viable candidate right now, that's fully capable and competent enough to administer the type of outstanding leadership that this country deserves.

America can do so much better than where it's at right now, and Barack Obama can show us all the way to a better and brighter tomorrow. Neither will Barack break down and cry at 3:00 in the morning. He will make very sharp and alert decisions that will be in the best interest of this country. We can trust Barack as our President!

Who's sending out the FEAR? Only Hillary?
I see that OBAMA is doing the same thing.

Hey Mat Erwich, again you're blaming the Victim here!! Hillary of course had nothing to with with her husband's infidelity so stop blaming her you no good chauvanist. We really need people like you picking our president you no good chauvanist! Go to Muslam country and take Obummer with you.

Obama's "right" judgment over the war is really a myth. He is not the senator at the time, and given his background, it's just natural for him to against the war. The point is, for him, against war is not a tough decision to make. He just has the luck.

One question, Hillary: Once you've secured the Democratic nomination, will it matter to you that John McCain can then use that same stupid ad against YOU?

This is really politics at its worst, and fear tactics like these insult every (intelligent) voter.

Stop scaring people with stupid ads. What you give is you get back.

Obama is right, you really need him in this critical juncture of US history. US is now tainted as a bully in international arena. In global economy nobody is behind in the race. Most countrys are catching up very fast. Disown the arrogance and embrace the reality of global economy, this only helps this country.

In today's employment market, where the simplest, easiest-to-learn-on-the-job jobs require a resume and multiple interviews, why isn't anyone asking for Obama's resume, and giving it a good look? What if we had an Ultimate White House interview committee that sat the candidates down in the Oval Office and fired hypotheticals and real-time situations at them?

I wish we had such a vetting system, to keep the emotional, naive, simplistic voters from confusing the presidency with Prom. Oh wait - we do! We have the superdelegates! Pray that they do their jobs.

I wouldn't trust an Air Force Pilot carrying my groceries, the
Thunderbird's are a follow the leader, joke kinda flying team
out there.
Maybe if it was a NAVAL AVIATOR I'd listen, they lead, first
and the best Demonstration Team out there.
Hillery's got former military leader's lining up out the door
to support her, so Barrack, get a life, don't destroy our''s
the U.S. deserves the best, Hillery Rodham Clinton.

Clinton and her staff are so pathetic and sad. Perhaps instead of portraying Hillary like she has multiple personality disorder, they could just accept that the reason she is losing to an upstart is because she never had "it" to begin with.

FEARMONGERING???

Who's answering the phone with foreign policy experience if Hillary is President? Bill? Hillary has no experience here. When did she work policy with the Joint Chiefs or the Secretary of State? Did I miss that? Being married to a President only makes you ready to be President in movies.

If the world's "leaders" are like about half of the American people, they can't stand Hillary. Plus her blind pig-headed way of staying the course reminds me too much of a certain President we have now. We need someone that people like, who is flexible, and who is smart. I'll give Hillary smart only; for the rest we need Barack Obama.

Who did or did not oppose the war is old news. Hillary was not the only Senator who voted to go into Irac. Also, only part of the whole picture for that vote is being pointed out. So put a sock in it already. We need to look to the future. Obama does not do anyting frankly - he hides behind the words - I did not do that. We all know what he did not do, but I would lke to know what he has done!!

Hillary is the person who puts herself out there. The war is a wrong war yes, but it was not her "idea" to go there and she never felt comfortable with her vote and she admits that. We are there now and we have to deal with the problems of the present. Hillary is the best and most capable person to do that.

HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT

The only real test we have of either candidates' judgment is their decision on Iraq. No contrast could be clearer. What else has Hillary done that makes anyone thing her "experience" leads to good judgment? The healthcare debacle of 1993-94? Her vote in Iran? Her views on Pakistan? Her bungled and mis-managed campaign? Not a lot of reinforcement, is there?

Personally, I want John McCain to answer the phone.

If she had not booked the call with the operator (by voting for the war)
in the first place, the operator would not be calling back.

It depends on the Hillary that answers the phone, the teary one, the angry one, or the dishonest one.

I want the person who is unflappable at all times. The one who does not lose his cool, and did not go taunt the enemy in the first place - Se. Obama. Thank you very much.

God willing it's Hillary who answers the phone.

I think some of you saying Obama should take a little while and think about that. I can't believe you are serious. I am serious and I want someone that is a little older, wiser, and more experience. It's a little more than just hope and change. We live in a scary world.

Here she goes…….another example of her style….using emotional appeals to parents concerned about their children. She wants to place fear in the minds of Americans to get what she WANTS. Parents should ponder this….do you raise your children out of fear…if not, then why should you be persuaded who to vote for out of fear.

Use good judgment to vote for the candidate with good judgment!

OBAMA '08

Is it Hillary calling a superdelegate at 3am?

Sen. Clinton is doing the same old thing… nothing NEW on her campaign format which is why people are sick of hearing what she has to say. Her entire campaign staffers are just not hitting the mark, they are so far off when it comes to what Americans want and think that is just impossible for her to change her stripes this late in the game.

Where was Obama last year when Afganistan started heading toward being a failed state. He could have fixed NATO. He can't even multi task. Excuses excuses. We can't afford to have that in a Commander in Chief. Please, give me a break. I wouldn't trust him and his judgement. He can however replace Barry White.

This is antiquated fear-mongering at its worst. Billary are using predatory tactics luring images of children to induce your fears. How heartless and calculating. I definitely don't want them answering the phone.

My answer: President Obama.

George W. Bush would approve this Ad "FEAR, FEAR and FEAR"

Hillary is just clarifying your own thoughts… bringing them into focus.

Maybe she'll answer the phone and send us into another phony war!!!

VOTE HILLARY!!!

Her experience in making bad judgements is unmatched.

I think it is a great ad! For John McCain.

Go Hillary!!!

I want someone calm, even-tempered, cool and collected..
which means Barak…

OBAMA 08

Fear mongering !

Hillary Clinton is running the same campaign George Bush has used to subjugate America the past 8 years. Fear, Fear, Fear

Shame on you Hillary !!!

While this ad brings up a good point, which candidate would make you feel safer, I think it will backfire on Hillary. It comes off as fear mongering, which is surely something that will surely turn democrats off after bush used it against Kerry successfully four years ago. Dems will equate this with Bush-esque tactics, even if they think Hillary would keep them safer.

What is funny in a sad kind of way, is that the republicans aren't even hiding the fact that they are supporting Obama to get Hillary out of the race. (as they did hide it in Iowa). a pal of mine in Texas says they have McCain. they are voting for Obama now but have no plans to vote for him in Nov. Saying that his involvement with the Joyce Foundation and his wanting to ban handguns will never get their vote. However if they could stick it to Hillary then why not ,they didn't have anything better to do.

I don't think any amount of advertising will turn the heads of the Obama supporters because they seem to be unwilling to face the facts. Hillary Clinton is far more experienced than Obama. These over zealous Obama fans are making sure we Dems lose the general election. They need to look at reality. Do they want Obama to win the democratic nomination just to lose the general election or will they wise up and let Hillary win both?

hilary clinton has so much more to offer this country i am 38 voted for john mccain in new hampshire___ when are americans gonna wake up to his change__ change policy thats all he talks about…he is a master at talking..and thats what he will do..my view is he has no experiance in the foreign policy__ please ..do you want him to meet with iran ..please thats a mistake all he is a good talker no experiance at least hillary was in office..and dont think for a moment that she had no decisions in her husbands preidentcy she is very smart… i live in new england i hope whe wins vermont rhode island and ohio …then the the big prize will be pennsyvanyia ..whats ombama did ..nothing but talk a good speech…?????

"In the event of a "crisis," it should be Hillary who answers that call.
"Hello,…" EXPERIENCE here.

Hillary 08!!!"

Hey Mike, WHAT EXPERIENCE!!! The only experience I have seen from her in handling a crisis comes from crisis in her campaign. If that is the type of experience she is touting then no thank you. HILLARY CLINTON HAS NO EXPERIENCE. SHE IS TOO UNSTABLE TO TRUST WITH OUR LIVES!

THIS IS THE SAME WOMAN WHO CLAIMS TO BE READY ON DAY 1 BUT COMPLAINS ABOUT GETTING THE FIRST QUESTION IN A DEMOCRATIC DEBATE????? GIVE ME A BREAK !!!!

Please please please stop with these kinds of obscene ads. William Kristol, not too long ago on foxnews, suggested that the way Hillary needed to go after Obama was by using the "politics of fear." That was his exact quote. The politics of fear, partially because of the Democtrats' sheer weakness and a lack of the ability to "risk" their personal political advancement opportunities, allowed Bush and the republicans to literally hijack (pun intended) the political landscape post 9/11. This was a strategy devised, orchestrated and implemented by Karl Rove. Calling these latest Clinton tactics rovian is not only accurate, it might even be an understatement.

Hillary probably lays in bed at night hoping for her "phone to ring" indicating something horrible has happened so that she can capitalize on the fear that would result.

As of yesterday I liked Hillary Clinton. I support Obama but I thought that a lot of the criticisms of her have been exaggerated and at times unfair. I was pretty sure that I would support her if she were the nominee. But this just shows her true colors. It shows that stooping to the lowest form of political games - the manipulation of the American people's fears for the safety of their homes and their families - into a political gain for herself. This is disgusting, and if she's the nominee I absolutely, positively, will NOT under any circumstances vote for her. I'll give my money and my vote to Ralph Nader. Seriously.

Well it's according to which Hillary answers. The one who gets angry so quickly and rushed to judgement, as she did with the Iraq war? So, many different personalities.

I want Barack to answer.
Si Se Puede!

Hillary, thank you for running this ad. It has two great outcomes for Obama.

1. You have once again shown poor judgment in your attempt to fear monger a vote and it will backfire
2. Now any attempt by McCain to use a similar attack will be seen as copy-catting

Wait a minute. Maybe Hillary knows she has lost and my second point is exactly what she is attempting to accomplish! Wow Hillary your the best.

Obama '08

I'm sure she does'nt t want an answer to that question……
because she's got ALL the answers.
Thats the problem!!!!!
We need a TEAM of experts and Obama to answer our Phone

Timmy two faced B word she demands Obama denounce and regect one of his supporters. However she said that the racist Latino lady could say what she wanted right. Left it to her useless campaign to denounce and reject. come on Hillary lets see you denounce and regect this ladies support on CNN or are yoyu afraid of losing the racist latino support.

Clinton or McCain, no question about it.

I know Obama will make a fine president. I want him to be my President.

Was she in office when the schip program was started for children. Was she a sen. or not? Because if she was not in the office as a sen. How can she say she start the Health Care program for children? That's the same thing that she says about Obama for the Iraq war. From my understanding not one of her proposals made it to the floor for her health care.

STRAIGHT OUT OF KARL ROVE'S PLAYBOOK, HILLARY!

This is shameful.

I want Barack Obama answering all those calls in the White House. Hillary has way too many personalities for me to deal with.

And for all you who say, "Who cares that Obama opposed the war?", it took A LOT of courage to be against it.

AND HILLARY DIDN'T READ THE INTELLIGENCE REPORT! I DON'T CARE IF THE OTHER SENATORS DID NOT READ IT EITHER, THAT'S A 13 YEAR OLD'S TACTIC TO TRY AND NOT GET IN TROUBLE!

I was in the midwest with no intelligence reports in 2002-2003, AND EVEN I KNEW that going into Iraq WAS NOT THE RIGHT THING TO DO.

If I can make that judgement, and Hillary can't, then I should run for President.

And yes, Obama has voted to fund the war. He cares about OUR SOLDIERS. Not funding the war with Bush in office is leaving them as sitting ducks.

OBAMA '08

when my children are asleep at night and chaos in the world happens..i want Hillary Clinton to answer the phone with her clear head and mind that she has always had and never abused with drugs or even cigarettes..for the children of America i want Hillary as Commander in Chief

WOW, what stupid people and stupid comments. Obama should be a blond because he doesn't get it but has a good line and you fall for it every time…it's politics people so of course he is saying whatever makes you idiots happy.

What people need to understand is (this is a scenario that could and probably will happen in the next adminstration). If you aren't thinking about the future of our children then you're being naive. This is not fear mongering, it's about competence.

Hillary may not be perfect and she may not be slick, but she has the experience to address a foreign or domestic crisis at 3 a.m. or at any other time of the day.

Barack doesn't have the experience or the common sense to safeguard this country. Listen to what Bush and McCain are saying about his foreign policy ideas.

TO ALL OF THE VOTERS IN RHODE ISLAND, VERMONT, TEXAS AND OHIO. PLEASE SUPPORT HILLARY AND GIVE THIS COUNTRY "HOPE" FOR A FUTURE THAT IS SAFE

George W. Bush would approve this Ad "FEAR, FEAR and FEAR"

The phone isn't ringing at Hillary's White House anyway. Under her leadership, they're short of cash and haven't paid this month's phone bill; but it's OK… She's gonna give them a loan from her personal account to cover the expenses… first thing in the morning.

In looking back over this entire primary election, I find it interesting that Hillary Clinton, a Yale college graduate, a lawyer (and by the way — she flunked the first bar test she took) just NEVER GOT IT ! Her campaign WASTED MONEY, WASTED TIME, LIED TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, AND USED BILL CLINTON TO MAKE HER CASE!! SHE COULD NOT STAND ON HER OWN MERITS!! This campaign was about BILL CLINTON winning again!! She is just a pawn in the mix!! At 3:00 a.m. on ANY morning, I doubt the American people would trust HER to be the Commander in Chief! We need JUDGMENT in the White House!! With the many personalities Hillary Clinton displays, I WOULD NOT EVER FEEL SECURE AS AN AMERICAN CITIZEN ! She certainly is not grounded!! In my mind I can vision "DISASTER" not only in foreign policy, but in healthcare, the economy, poverty, child care, . . . . and the list goes on!! We had one 911. We certainly don't need another!!

Mutombo has experience too, but I'll take Dwight Howard over him anyday. This ad is tawdry; I would rather have the police answering the phone.

Thank you Hillary.
I support Hillary all the way. I still believe that the media does not want her to win. For a while it was getting better but I just saw a spot with McCain and Obama campaigning and what no Hillary. Nothing.
So for me I see a much stronger woman,, human being in Hillary. She has had to fight the media and is still at the very least in a dead heat. Wtih the media on Baracks side, well of corse that will sway voters. Thankss CNN and other new media for electing our president and showing how biased you really are.

Go Hillary

Obama 08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

EASIEST QUESTION EVER TO ANSWER NOT SOME ROCK STAR GUY IN AN EMPTY SUIT WHO DOES NOT KNOW AL QUEDA IS ALREADY IN IRAQ BUT AN ADMIRAL PATROIT LIKE PRESIDENT MCCAIN WHO WILL DEFEND OUR COUNTRY AND NOT SELL IT OUT

I want Barack Obama to answer the phone.

*************************************

Hold on, so she thinks she thinks that at 3am she will have better judgement then a man who defeated her 11 states in a row?????

If she was so capable why did she loose 11 state elections in a row? It can only mean Barack is more capable, smarter and has better judgement.

As for scaring us by using our kids, that reminds me of the WOLFS add run in 04 by Bush. Shameful then and even more shameful now coming from a defeated democrat that will DO ANYTHING to become president.

Wait a minute. In my last post I said Hillary Clinton polarizes people for some unexplained reason. Then I watched her "Children" ad, and realized THAT was the reason.

Fear. Division. Desperation. Lies.

After 8 years of it…do we need any more?

We ALL know that what this ad says is the TRUTH. We can not let Obama get the nomination because the REPUBLICANS will tear him up on the issues that are being leaked a little at a time about Obamas friends and him being the most LIBERAL in Congress. Bill OReilly has been saying for the last month that he has information about Obamas relationships with these shady people but they are checking them out more, because OReilly is waiting hoping he can hold off until Obama gets the nomination then they will come out full force.

Shame on you HRC. How can you resort to using kids in your ads to win? This is more than desperation, this is evil! I WILL NOT VOTE FOR YOU IF YOU WERE THE ONLY ONE RUNNING!

margaret - the fact that you would choose someone who
