CNN

With Hillary's arguments for experience it's hard to tell where Bill's experience ends. Is she suggesting that she and her man are one? How feminist is that?

You poor obama supporters, when you try to claim all this expeience , and try to say that it exceeds Hillarty's expeience, what planet have you been living on? If you mean that eight years in the U.S.Senate and now chair person on the Armed service committee and eight years as First Lady, equals Illinois senate, working in the gheeto on poverty issues and two years as a U.S. Senator, of which he has been running for President for 1 year, comes even near to her experience. She has visited 80 nations and knows many of the current head of states. I think she will release her tax returns earlier, as she would do that for the general election, but I also think that Obama should release all of his letters to an from Rezko, his appointment bboks, list of number of meetings he had with Rezko, with time and date along with purpose, dates of time of meeting with Rezko and his wife in regard to the purchase of the $ 1,900,000 house and later purchase of a portion of the adjoining lot from Tezko's wife, a list of the companies involved with the three state pension boards and the $ 300,000 in contributions. So let the records and the tax returns be released.

Wake up and smell the coffee folks! Hello...Hillary is not genuine. She is extremely vain and simply wants to go down as the first female president. She is so conceited with little regards for people and has demonstrated this during her debates. She has also demonstrated a shameless lack of originality both in her speeches and ideas, yet the media overlooks this. Even those who can see through her are just not speaking up, and Barrack is too much of a gentleman. For me, it's nothing personal, it's just what she's shown me over these months. I beleive someone's personality says a lot about what you can expect from them, and I will be only too happy to give examples if called upon.

Devaan,

You go Hillary!!!!!!!!!!!!! Keep doing it . You fought a good fight and you won.

Lets see Obama's and his country loving wifes tax returns also

I think we can all thank Rush Limbaugh for Clinton’s win last night. Republicans crossed over to keep the feud going within the Democratic Party. For once, the two Democratic candidates need to take the high rode and keep their eyes on the November election. Why don’t they just combine forces and call it a day. If we don’t wake up, we will be dealing with McCain for the next 4-8 years. God Help Us All!

There are several claims that Barack has gone negative... I must be failing to see it in the above article. He is questioning her claim of having 'foreign experience." I see examining claims as a good practice. She doesn't have that experience. In fact, all she really can claim is 6 years as a Senator and being married to the President of the United States, marriage doesn't equate to experience by proxy. Experience by proxy is no experience.

Judging the above posts, I think we are more divided than CNN has believed. I guess once you get a couple of wins, people feel like they can expose their true divisive nature.

I can see why Clinton supporters are so divisive... it comes straight from Clinton herself. It is quite unfortunate for the party.

Everyone needs to go to the Houstooo.con Press and read the article about Obama.

I have noticed how the Clintonistas want to view Barack's raising the question about, what does Hillary have to say to support her claims of experience, as negative campaigning. This is not negative campaigning by any measure, since he said nothing negative about her. Rather than attack her character and credibility, he is asking her to explain the basis for her repeated comments throughout this campaign, which she has never done. To see countless actual examples of negative campaigning one just needs to look at all the direct negative attacks Hillary has made against Obama's character. This is not a gotcha moment. This is another moment of hypocrisy though. So ugly, so desperate, sooooooo Hillary.

This is sad that people have such negative things to say about Senator Obama. No one discussed what either candidate can do about the current state of the economy, lack of jobs, tax increases, foreclosed homes, affordable childcare and healthcare. How about some of the Obama critics and even some Clinton critics take a look at what either of them plan to do if they get into the White House. That is what affects you! It is more important to be educated instead of jumping on team Clinton.

Side Bar: I am not a religious person, but I believe that there is power in words so here goes "Senator Barack Obama will be the next President of the United States"...I just had to claim that victory for him!

SO SAD. You are going to lose Obama, you need to face up to it
Let's see. you have two years in Washiington.Illinois state senator
doing very little for your state, other than voting present on important issues. That's about it. Now as for the great Lady. Been in Washington for many years helping others. Then, first lady for Bill's eight great years as president. Has helped create programs to help others. A great US SENATOR. ;She's there to do the job she has been elected to do.You started campaigning when you walked into the town. Don't you think you should acquire some knowledge first. WE don't need another play it by ear, and hope for the best. We need Hillary, the best choice period.

Obama mentioned a "knock out" before , what happened? He and his so called supporters are not better than the others. I still have a lot of doubts and uncertainty about him. If he is that good, he should have won the nomination by now. Either Hillary or McCain will get my vote.

Obama – I'm one of those sitting on the fence! I'm the "anyone but an old warloard, an old man...I'll vote the Democratic ticket WHOEVER"

BUT...negative campaigning is not the answer. Just tell the American people where YOU stand and what YOU believe...you don't have to be a Washington insider to become president...just be YOU!

By the way...why don't you choose Lou Dobbs as a running mate! THAT WILL ENSURE A WIN!

Yeah,

I think her engagement on the national and international stage during the 1990s as First Lady do constitute experience, especially given how active of a First Lady she was. Being on the Senate Foreign Affairs Committee, etc. count. Representing and helping a state that was attacked on 9/11 count. Her point is that none of these three candidates have ever acted in the capacity of President because none have ever been President, but she was involved in many ways the closest of all of them. Regardless, McCain still has more experience, than her, but she is next and Obama is no where near this level. Period!!! Democrats pull your head out of the clouds. If you really want Obama as President, push for the joint ticket with him as VP. Doing so will give him the street creds to go up against Rep in 2016. It will also ensure the Dems win in Nov and keep the WH for almost 2 decades. Think people, think!!!

Put your Seat belts on....Game On!!!!!!
Obama what took you so long? role your sleevs up and lets rock and roll !!!!!

Charlotte, you see how discriminating you are, what is wrong with Obama mentioning Africa? Say something reasonable next time.

Obama can not win the white house with MONEY. He spent twice as much and lost. He is all rehtoric and if you notice he has become more the SAME in his speeches. Game over for OBAMA.

Go Clinton.

I'm a middle of the road Republican and I am continuously humored by watching you democrats fall into this "Hillary is more Experienced" trap.
1. She is counting 35 years from the day she graduated law school +/- a year or two.
2. She is counting 8 years as First Lady (only the positive parts of Willy's tenure)..........Give me a break
3. Running on the ability to be Commander in Chief.....John McCain would chew her up and spit her out.
4. Obama has more years of legislative experience than she does.
5. Obama isn't just speeches. He has defined his p[rograms as well as she has.

Now the Clinton campaign is going to try and re-institute Florida and Michigan. The arrogance of this family is amazing.

You Hillary supporters need to step back, get educated and then make your determination based on facts, not her BS

Bring it on Obama. Hillary is just getting warmed up. Besides, not only does Hillary have the experience, she's got the stuff to back up that experience. And well over 30 US Generals and high ranking military officials have faith in Hillary's vast experience to lead this country as Commander and Chief. So bring those questions on...we welcome them!

clinton brings up the fact about exp and what to do in a tough situation.well heres one for her.what do you do if Bill finds another woman in the white house?I don't want someone who has to deal with this again.my vote at first was for her or Huckabee.but to here Obama the last 2 months changed my mind.to see those 2 on the same ticket was a great plan.But now he doesn't need her.She will need him more than he will need her.she complained about the media and now the seen has changd on him.but guess what it is about to hit her again.People will begin to bring up her taxes,taken documents from a guy who committed suicide,her exp,and much much more.it will come from the poeple an not the media.this will bite her big time.The REP are so scared that they are trying to get H Clinton in that they are teaming up on Obama.They don't want him to win the DEM nominee.Cunningham and Clinton said the same things but in a different way.Remember about the light from above.They have teamed up.we better wake up.Bush say that Obama better focus on Clinton.He hasn't said it about her on Obama.

If HILLARY wins, I'm voting for John Mc Cain, really she is such a calculating lesbian phony. Anyone voting for her is clearly a bigoted, lesbian loving communist. Long Live real Up-And-Coming Young Democrats® of All Colors. Hillary also won because of Hispanics who hate black dudes. Sad, but these are the signs of the time.

Why won't the media post both candidate's actual experience??

I've been saying this forever! Hillary has never held a public office but for her Senate seat. Before that she was a First Lady and wife of Bill Clinton. Barack has more public office experience than she does. Where is this money coming from to loan her campaign five million. What deals have President made around the world? Who pays for the plane Bill and his daughter uses??? Where are those latest tax returns and W.H. records.... Answer those questions Hillary and Bill.

Plus: I don't see a ticket with her or bill on it with Barack Obama! She needs Barack to help her win the general. I will not VOTE for Hillary period!

Experience

Hillary campaign began as the sure thing, lots of money, the machine, labor, endorsements, the black vote, the hispanic vote, and working folks. Lets talk about her experience at running something her campaign. She has lost the black vote, labor vote, the machine has crumbled, and she had to loan herself money. (Money she can load to her campaign in the democratic primary but states the primary voter do not need to know where this money comes from she will file her taxes after the primary IF she win) She has had to fire staff, reshuffel staff, and she laughs and whoops it up when she wins (see Ohio), but bails on voters when she lose( see Virginia, wisconsin, etc) Thats EXPERIENCE. WOW

Hillary and Obama both have the same stance on issues, weak resumes and a sense of entitlement to the party's nomination. This pillow fight is getting a little meaner. Now Obama is flailing with a pair of bunny slippers. I can't help but picture these two at a sleepover, in a pillow fight where one or both of them got hit in the face and is fighting and crying at the same time. Big Daddy McCain needs to pop in on the slumber party and finally put them to rest.

McCain/Lloyd Hansen 2008

Hillary will lose to McCain because a private group of Republicans will do a Swift Boat Thing based on her numerous legal problems in the past. I would now like to see Obama point out some of her past issues, including losing health care, and point out that he has more years as an elected official. Keep it sharp and simple.

Our country is already in debt.. It has taken more Security ($$$) to watch Obama then any other candidate. What is going to happen if he becomes president???

I don't think Mr. Obama is in much of a position to question anyone's experience much less Clinton or McCain. More hot air...

If people would actually do their research, they might actually see that the claims of a back door meeting between the Obama campaign and the Canadian gov't never happened. Both the campaign and Canada have refuted the memo as being grossly distorted. Also, how is Sen. Obama asking Sen. Clinton to provide concrete examples of her experience going negative? He is only asking the electorate to pay attention to the actual political issues and exaggerated claims of the Clinton camp, as opposed to the underhanded ads the Clintons are running.

Please, people, look at every candidate's website. They all have plans and real goals laid out for the voters to review. You will see that Obama is not just fluff and stuff, but truly has a vision of what this country can be.

Go Obama!

Hillary has shown us she is willing to put aside ego and do what is best for the country and the party. She is willing to have the best of all scenarios under these crazy circumstances, a joint ticket. This shows HER to be the uniter, not Obama, as he has professed.

Obama needs to be willing to do the same- otherwise his EGO is trumping reason and the good of the party and country. I hope he proves man enough to reach out to the 50% or more of voters who want Clinton for president.

Let's face it- 50% of the votes, counting the independents and republicans (who are not registered voters with the democratic party) does not and will not give Obama a mandate. He can not win the election with less than 50% of the democrats behind him . Furthermore the DNC will have to get the superdelegates to vote the will of the party and not the will of republicans and independents.

That is just how the system works. Obama be man enough to unite the electorate and the party. If you can not/ will not do that, then we know you can not unite the country. Hillary can and WILL do all of that.

Anyone who thinks that Hillary does not have the experience has not been doing their homework. Read more and talk less. Have any of you really looked into her record as a senator or anything that she has been a part of.? I do not think so. You are just sore because people are realizing that Obama does not have as much experience. Even in the US senate he shows very little record of crossing party lines. Quite frankly his lack of foreign policy experience shows when he makes such a comment as being willing to talk to our enemies with no preconditions. I look forward to that coming out in a future commercial. I personally do not want an Obama-Nation.

Wow, if we count her years in the White House , why don't we nominate Nancy Regan as a VP?

Hillary proves that despite the fact that she can't win this nomination, she goes forward. She is ready to throw mud another day.
She doesn't care about voters or she would respect them. She is ready to drag the party behind her no matter what happens.
She is only interested in herself-Period!

It would be Hillayous if it weren't so sad.
Keep on plugging her message Cnn.

This "Dream Ticket" that was mention here on CNN is a joke. Hillary knows many will not vote for her who supported Obama. She will do anything to beat McCain just llike she will do anything to win the Democratic nomination. I am a democrat but I will never support Hillary. I will vote republican first. She proved in the debates that she cannot be contained. Those who modirated the debate could not stop her if she wanted to say something. I hope she is not the one to answer a phone at 3'0 clock. She is too firery. I see no compasion in her. Maybe it was distroyed with her dealings with Bill.
The media has given her a a free ride concerning the reporting of her taxes.
Hillary had to go negative to get a win. Is it worh it? She is handing John Mcain the presidency.

Put your seat belts on....Game On!!!!!!!
Obama what took you so long,? ...Role your sleeves and lets rock and roll !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Obama is saying she might not have the experience? That's funny coming from the rookie. There's way to many jokes that could be made out of this at his expensive... maybe I better leave this one alone, hahahahahaah:)

The truth of the matter is Senator Clinton has 35 years of institutional knowledge and experience in how the government works at local, state and federal level in the United States. She will be more adept, as president ,to use the all the tools of statecraft available to solve problems be it domestic and international.

I love how you Obama supporters have been playing the "holier than thou" card during his winning streak. Such as, "we've had enough of dirty politics, she's doing a smear campaign, keep to the high ground, etc. etc. etc." but now that politics as usual apparently worked, you're saying, "It's about time Obama. Go on the offensive Obama, etc., etc, etc."

Either he is about change, about changing politics, about changing the divisiveness in this country or he's about winning. I have a feeling over the next few weeks, you're going to see that Obama is about winning, by any means necessary. He will go dirty, he will go negative, and he will get nasty.

I wonder how you will all react to your candidate then. My guess, is that you will love it. You are a bunch of sheep.

Hillary wasn't sitting in the White House baking cookies for 8 years! She was one of the most prominent first ladies in history and was very active in Bill's presidency, advising him on policy as well as traveling the world as an envoy for the United States. Before that she performed similar duties on the state level for 12 years as the first lady of Arkanasas. This doesn't even include her activities in politics prior to Bill becoming govenor, nor the fact that she's now in her second term as the senator from New York. Regardless of all of her experiences on her own, of which there are ample, it seems to me that even if there were none, this notion that her time as first lady, and the unique manner in which she fullfilled that role, didn't help to provide her with a myriad of experiences that will make her a better President is just absurd! Hillary didn't get where she is today because of Bill, nor for her recipes in the kitchen. She's where she is because she has the right recipe for America's future!

It was very disappointing to see Mr. Obama lose Texas. I know he'll get the most delegates for the caucus (the fiasco that it was). Half of the people there said that if she's on the Nov. ticket they will not be voting period. I'm an Independent and I feel the same way.

I love how Mr. Obama has been taking the high road but I do think that now is the time to shine some light on this manipulative woman! He doesn't have to go negative (which I don't see him doing).

Hillary is running a two pronged campaign... Sympathy and Fear. She is trying to say we will be vulnerable if anyone other than her gets the Presidency When things get rough she whines or cries to get the sympathy vote. Does this mean that if that red phone rings at 3:00 am she will cry?

JUDGEMENT may be best estimated having more than ONE quantity of analyses.

Clinton is the one getting a free ride from the media. I guess they want to let the right wing do it for them after she wins. There is still a lot of dirt on her that hasn't been discussed much. The Dems are so stupid that I'm sure they will elect Hillary, I've never thought otherwise. You are talking about the party that choose Kerry. How stupid can you get. They always choose the worst person. I have voted a lesser of two evils all my life but that ends now. I will never vote that way again because you still got evil in the end.

OBAMA CANNOT WIN – HE LOST OHIO.

ONE MORE THING, HISTORY TELLS US THAT IOWA ALWAYS CHOOSE THE LOSER WHILE NEW HAMPSHIRE ALWAYS CHOOSE THE WINNER.

BY THE WAY, OBAMA IS NOT A MUSLIM. THE "H-word" is now forbidden. It's just like using the "N-Word"

The voters are going to get to see the real Obama I am afraid the more this goes on, Hillary does not appear to have anything to hide, I could be mistaken but she does not appear to be a person hiding a secret she is afraid America is going to find out. Now back to Obama, the negative ads will start, the negative comments, they already have, her phone ringing ad, he responded back to her using her own Fearmongering (Spelling) ads as he called them, but isn't all part of the campaign? Has it not gone on forever and forever? If you do not bring out the negative, how can you appreciate the positive???

Decatur, AL

SORE LOOSER.
Why is it that Senator Obama did not challenge the experience claims a year ago? Odd...
He is just not ready.

Besides great speeches, what exactly has Senator Obama done? He touts his anti-war speech at a time that he was not privy to the information exchanged in the US Senate that convinced the Senate ,at the time, to back the President and try to stand united. He critisizes policies by those who dared to try to make a difference. If HE had ever written a policy he would know that humans are flawed and at times even our best intentions need to be tweaked once implemented (can you say NAFTA). He has no track record, just great words, and he has a large number of followers fooled, It's "the Emperors New Clothes"!

Why is CNN and the other media talking about Clinton's connection to fundraiser Norman Hsu who swindled investors out of millions of dollars and made illegal donations to Clinton.

Obama/Powell in 08! Should scare the bejesus out of old Grandpa Munster.

Let's face facts. Neither Obama nor Hillary have any experience in foreign policy and both of their domestic policy platforms are based on bigger government and tax increases. This is not a change for the future, this is a return to the 1970's.

Think about how badly he handled NAFTA, and how his wife speaks.
That is just lack of experience for him, and carelessness for her.

All you Sen. Obama lovers need to start looking at the facts. And check out the websites. Talk is cheap, and cheap shots are what you are doing.

One has to laugh and question Obama about his so many tired preacher sermons about how we can pull people together and unite the parties, well where is all of this when HILLARY has already suggested that maybe there can be a joint ticket and run together and beat the Republicans. Not a word of such from the preacher Obama. I cant help but think where is his pulling together and uniting the country when he isn't even man enough to say anything about that. One wonders if he can take a back seat to a woman, hummmm maybe it is something in his upbringing that prevents him from doing so????????

And Obama has the experience???
The guys has no clue when it comes to foreign affairs.
Iranian goverment is responsible for killing our sons in Iraq and likes to meet with them!!! We don't need that kind of a president.

Did anyone notice how saaaaaaaaaad CNN anchors looked last night.

Thank you TX and OH.

I've been asking about Hillary's experience for a long time. I'm glad it is about to become an issue. When asked last week for an instance comparable to the 3 a.m. crisis call that appears in her ad, she couldn't come up with anything. That is because there isn't anything. Questioning a credential touted by the opposition is not negative in and of itself. It is how the criticism is made. And for you Clinton supporters, why is it going negative when Obama questions Hillary's experience, but it is "drawing distinctions" when Hillary calls into question Obama's record?

Obama evades and deflects, then accuses Clinton of negativity. Poor baby! Real working people aren't buying it. To quote George Bush, "It's hard work" campaigning Senator. I'm tired of the attitude everyone should step aside and hand him the nomination because he is fresh, new, and it's the politically correct thing to do. By the way, why does he frown all the time when he speaks, the man never looks happy.

Obama do not accept VP post from Clinton. You had better reject and denouce it publicly, it is a trick to get your votes for the remaining primaries before the nomination. You are better than that. She has smeared you all this time and even endorsed Mccain over you. Let her reap the fruits of her own divisiveness that she has sown. If she gets the Dems nomination due to superdelegates, McCain will win in fall as prez then you can come back again in 2012!

dick chaney, rumsfeld and colin powell had 100 years expecience combined and messed everything up!

What the elections showed last night is that for all the talk of change people do not waht change they simply want more of the same. I can simply point out to those who say he spent twice as much and still did not win that 2 weeks ago she had margins of over 20% in Texas and 30% in Ohio, he SIGNIFICANTLY cut into those margins, even with Ms. Clinton going negative. I have friends in Texas and Ohio who were telling me they got letters and emails about Mr. Obama being anti American and that he is secretly a Muslim, yep these stories are still out there and unfortunately lower income, less educated people (and in some case bigoted) still believe these stories. So I would say considering the bad press of last week (Rezco and all) and the continuing lies about his patriotism he did real well and I would point to the delegate numbers to prove my point. for all her "Great Victories" last night I notice she barely amde up any in the delegate count. But I guess that will mean little to the Clintonistas, they will now begin to cry foul when Mr. Obama has decided to question Ms. Clinton on HER experiance, when he starts to bring HER record under scrutiny. But keep this in mind folks he will be MUCH kinder to her than the Republicans should we be so unlucky as to have her as the Democratic choice.

Yep. This isn't negative campaign rhetoric, Obama is speaking the truth. Compare their congressional records and it's plain to see who has been working for the American public rather than positioning themselves for a negative campaign using lies and innuendo.
Hillary claims these were big wins, but they were not. It's easy to see that the general public and polls nationwide are for Obama and her continuing in the campaign will only do severe damage to the Democratic party. It's time for her to do the right thing!
Go Obama!

Sadly, you have to play harder when the opposing team gets down-right raunchy and evasive with their tactics. I say "Go for it, Senator Obama!" We're behind you all the way!

Let her finally disclose her tax records! Put her money where her mouth is, fer pete's sake!

As to her experience at 3am when a crisis hits the nation – what the heck? Doesn't this feel like the paranoia that fueled the 50's with us being encouraged to build bomb shelters because of a possible attack by the Communists?

Come on! Concentrate on the domestic violence that plagues our very own country! We've got mothers killing their children, all coked up and high on something. We've got brothers, fathers, sisters killing each other. RIGHT HERE! YES! In the United States! Let her address THAT at 3 o'clock in the morning! We are a diseased society.

Somebody needs to focus everyday issues, not go looking for another war to get us into at 3am. Please..................

Senator Obama, you have so much to show the Clinton's of the world and I for one am proud of the gentlemanly way in which you've handled your campaign so far.

Now, dig in and bump their name off the ticket!

What's to debate? Obama has been a "no show" politician for years. He has done nothing in his "career." His lack of judgement and honesty is right out from in connection with his "boneheaded," crooked land deals and his attempt to end around the American public with the Canadian fiasco.
This guy is a liar and an empty suit.
Sam – Trying to compare Laura Bush to Hillary is one of the most idiotic comments I have heard from the Obamazombies. Clinton was always involved in policy during her years in the white house. Laura Bush is the most do-nothing first lady ever.
I have never voted for a republican in 30 years. If Obama wins the nomination, or is on the ticket in any way I will be voting for McCain and urge all Hillary supporters to do the same.

She's out of her mind. Obama or nothing. It's not over yet and If the superdelegate vote her way then Obama supporters will not vote

Obama God Bless you. But be careful don't fall into Hiliary's trap. don't let the world think that you are as dirty and desperate as she is. God be with you man!!!!

Please don't censor this.

What a joke the Messiah is turning out to be!And what a joke the Democrats are turning out to be,letting this joker run wild with his silly logic.Does he really think people believe that his tiny background and experience in the Illinois State Legislature is what voters look for in a President?Might as well give it to McCain now.

I do not understand why Obama would lie about his Muslim back ground. He was raised Muslim until he was 6 years old.. You cannot say you were never a Muslim...

How could you Obama fans not see that we need experience in the office we are in critical times.. Clinton's are tried and true.

Obama needs to concede so that he does not ruin it for the Democratic Party!

Go Hillary!

Umm, has Obama even watched any of the debates? Hillary stomps him on foreign policy issues and she totally owns him when it comes to discussing how to handle foreign policy emergencies. She's endorsed by dozens of generals and admirals and has used her power in the senate to visit places like Iraq.

Obama vows to meet with Hugo Chavez personally within the first year of his presidency. Give me a break. After he interns with Hillary for 8 years THEN he might be ready for the top spot. But it's really silly to believe that Barack has any experience at all.

Now, of course, maybe Obama wants to have a land deal with Hugo Chavez... that would explain wanting to meet him within a year.

When will CNN do a story that compares their Senate records to one another, when will you guys show the world all of Hillary's "substance and solutions", when will CNN break the story of Paul vs Clinton all over the headlines like you did with Rezko? Huh CNN, looks like you took Ms. Clinton's crybaby bait, you probably won't even post this one......

HAHA democrats! We will see who the American people would rather have answering those 3AM calls and who in fact has the ACTUAL Experience to be commander and chief. GO JOHN MCCAIN!

neither of these two should be claiming "experience." I do believe that Clinton knows more and has more influence in D.C.

Anyone can bring a message of Change to D.C., but, how are they going to get the congress to go along with them? Does he plan to veto every law he doesn't agree with? Will we have 4 years of a do nothing president? Where does all his campaign money come from? (welfare checks)

yes we can show you clintonians the we are bacccccccccccccccck

Obama lectures about corruption in Washington and Kenya but" been noticeably silent on the issue of corruption in his home state."

At first, Sen Obama denied his team had a conversation with the Canadian diplomat about NAFTA, then, he admitted the conversation, but said it was taken out of context. which is it? On top of that, he is still only a senator, why was he, or his team getting involved with diplomats from another country? I heard the pundits say that it was a rookie moment. SOOOO? what does that say about his experience and his understanding of foreign policies and decorum?

If, in fact, the allegations were true, that there is possibility of double-speak on the part of his campaign, why wouldn't the American people want to know NOW rather than later?

Tony R., your comment about blue collar workers is demeaning – as if they have no brains to judge for themselves. Do you really think that Hillary's ad was saying that she will physically answer the phone, or do you think she meant that she will know what to do when a crisis call comes in? I'm on the side of the "blue collars", and happy to be there!

some of you people are crazy, either of these two are better then what we got and lets keep our eye on the prize, we need a supreme court that is going to be balanced.... lets not self destruct. Hillary is a fighter and does know how to get things done, Obama is inspirational and uniter..... Dream ticket, um yeah!!! We need them both in what ever combination it is... he needs her as much as she needs him...... start emailing them and letting them know that..... lets not be short in our seeing.....

Let's get ready to RUMBLE!!! I hate that he has to get a lil down and dirty but you can't play nice with the Clintons. If Hillary was on the right side of the Iraq war you supporters would want her to say it every 5mins. Don't get mad that HE was RIGHT and SHE was WRONG!!! I have been saying since this campaign started that she DOES NOT HAVE 35yrs experience and McCain has MORE yrs than that so what is she going to say to him???? I hate it had to come to this I wish everybody could play nice.

I do not want this "nightmare" ticket either.

God Bless Us All Now!!!

This in not Obama going negative, it is a question you have to ask when she makes these claims. Being first lady is not a position in government, the only position she has held in government was Senator.

I think Obama has run a positive campaign trying to stay above the dirt of the "kitchen sink" attacks from the Clinton campaign and continues to run on issues. John McCain says he is better on security and points to the fact that he was involved in every major military operation since 84. What does Clinton point to?

Obama raises a very valid question. If her answer is 7 years in the senate compared to his 3 then we can judge from there on the issues. If she says being first lady, then she proves what she has continued to prove over the course of her negative campaign.... She is full of crap.

This is a common sense strategy Sen. Obama should have used from the moment she touted "35 years of experience", for she has done which endows her with super presidential qualifications.

Sen. Obama's legislative career is far longer than Sen. Clinton's, as are his senatorial accomplishments in IL. And unlike Sen. Clinton, Sen. Obama didn't get an added boost to his efforts for being the spouse of an ex president.

That is truly why Mrs. Clinton is so well known to Americans. Her private or public career record didn't propel her nomination then or now. It is her affliation with a 2 term governor, a 2 term president, and unfortunately, something of a 2 timing husband, which has propelled her onto her own political stage.

Sen. Obama didn't have that lofty, insubstantial credential. He had to accomplish his the good old, democratic way.... on his own merits; and the Obama Camp should never cease stating that fact, along with reminders of her past 'Vast right wing conspriracy' theories, and her present inaccuracies regarding 'press bias'.

The facts of Sen. Clinton's senatorial record, and that of her husband's presidential one (if she still wishes to claim it), should be front and center from the Obama on a daily basis to remind America of all the poor to disasterous decisions this couple has made, and the wonderful campaign promises they didn't keep.

Go for it!!!!

Please explain this to me, Clinton supporters.

There's no way she can cut into his delegate lead, so he will come out of this in June with more pledged delegates. Thus, superdelegates would have to overturn the election results for her to win the nomination. If this happened, the Democratic party will be irreparably divided, and McCain will landslide. These electability arguments coming out of the Clinton camp overlook this reality. This is the reality of the situation. From here on out, her efforts damage the party and our chances to win in November. I see no cogent arguments to the contrary.

Hillary wasn't sitting in the White House baking cookies for 8 years! She was one of the most prominent first ladies in history and was very active in Bill's presidency, advising him on policy as well as traveling the world as an envoy for the United States. Before that she performed similar duties on the state level for 12 years as the first lady of Arkanasas. This doesn't even include her activities in politics prior to Bill becoming govenor, nor the fact that she's now in her second term as the senator from New York. Regardless of all of her experiences on her own, of which there are ample, it seems to me that even if there were none, this notion that her time as first lady, and the unique manner in which she fullfilled that role, didn't help to provide her with a myriad of experiences that will make her a better President is just absurd! Hillary didn't get where she is today because of Bill, nor for her recipes in the kitchen. She's where she is because she has the right recipe for America's future!

Will look who the crybaby is now?
Obama goes making backdoor deals with Canada on NAFTA,Canada exposes him, he denies this ever happened, then says he knew about it but he didn't sanction it. Are we to believe he desn't know what his top people are doing on his behalf?
What does this say about his leadership skills? – He has none!
What does this say about his honesty? He has none! (first he says he didn't know, then he said he did know)- A liar outright!
What does this say about his Transparency in government? Sounds like BUSH POLITICS to me! – sending his dogs to make backdoor deals with Canada. Is this his idea of an open conversation with the American people?
Let's not get on dirty politics – read the "HUMAN STAIN" – Obama has successfully been using the "race-baiting" card from the beginning. He is just like his cousin Odinga of Kenya, strong-arming the black leaders that casted their support for Hillary, by threatening them to move over to his bandwagon or else.
The longer Hillary stays in this race, the more you will learn about your Trojan Horse Obama. Google: Obama and Sinclair, Obama and Odinga, Obama's church and Farrakan... and on and on?

So his big fight back at Hillary is "where are your taxes?" – cause I need to find something to kick some dirt back on you. Only thing is, Hillary had nothing to do with this one, this one he did ALL on HIS OWN!

Obama,
If you have to regain the momentum, you ought to be tough and do not hesitate to be crticial of Clinton and start laying the ground work in PA ASAP.

Go OBAMA!!!

Make me understand, you're up 20 points in the polls, you need to win by at least 65% to have a chance to get close in delegates, you have staked your claim on Texas and Ohio, and you have the brand name, democratic machine behind you in Ohio, a large hispanic vote in Texas, and when its all said and done, you do not gain in delegates, you're still behind in popular vote, and you have still won fewer states, BUT you claim victory, a hugh victory. What Spin!

Hillary has only won big states or states with a large hispanic population. (new your, texas, californis, new mexico, arizona, etc). Barack has won in the south, east and west, and in the midwest. Some say a democrat can't win without the big states, and he cannot win big states, so Hillary must be the candidate. Democrats will win new York and California, lose Texas and fight it out in Ohio Florida, and Missouri, with Hillary or Barack That's how it always is, this is why its called a primary. But the GOP wants Hillary because with Barack GOP states will be in play, states like Alabama, Georgia, Virginia and Colorado. Hillary will win the normal blue states, and hope she can win Ohio, Florida, and Missouri. barack will win the normal blue states, and fight it out in Ohio, Florida, and Missouri, but he will be in play in so many other states that Hillary will not. So while she is campaigning to be President of the Big states, Obama for President of the UNited States.

Finally all this jabbering about experience, please. Ask those same people what have Hillary or McCain has done and I will bet their answer will be the same, I don't know. At the same time if Hillary has so much experience why have she not been able to do anything about health care, she has been on the scene since 92, touting health care plan. Experience. She voted for Iraq, but she says it was based on the information she got from President Bush, info that she did not read. Experience, She promised New York 200,000 jobs, did not deliver, but during the debate she said that was based on Al Gore becoming President. Her experience seems to be based on bad judgements reached by bad judgements. great she won New York Texas, California, and Ohio, thats 4 out of 50, she has won a total of 14 states give or take 2.

All I know is in America,when you are running a race ,the one leading at the end of the race wins. I have not seen any event in America,that let the second place finisher get the first place trophy. The WORLD is watching and so are we. If he(Obama) doesn't get the nod,we know there is no REAL democracy here. We'll know that it will always be dictated by the majority,and that will let minorities know to get from under oppression any way you can.That is the risk America is taking,don't go negative,stay positive and sleep good at night.Obama08

I am deeply concerned about the ugliness of the Clinton strategy. She is deceptive and hides her income tax. A joint income tax, according to her, which could tell us more about her and Bill Clinton's finances. We do not know who has funded the Clinton Library nor the Clinton Foundation. We do not know to whom they are beholden.Nor has the press or even the public really acknowledged the role that Bill Clinton will play in the White House, in fact, we may never know even if she is elected. Her experience in the WH was social and health care planning. We know what happened to health care planning. Be aware that she has said she will have universal health care by the end of her second term. Lots of presumptions there. Let's hold Hillary responsible for her real record.

Hillary darling, what exactly IS your crisis experience? Watching Giuliani and Schumer on 9/11? I did that too. Visiting foreign countries? Yep, same here. Underhanded tactics when your down in the polls? Well, you've got me there...

These comments are outrages about Hillary's experience...
You bloggers are out of your mind.

Being a First lady for eight years alone is substantially more experience than Obama. It is the kind of experience that you cannot buy. It is the kind of experience that even running as a state senator of Illinois for 10+ years cannot compete with.
Everyone learns from being an under study. If you don't think she picked up some serious experience as a First Lady you are kidding yourself...... She also had quite a few years in Arkansasas well.
I am sure most of you know that she was no MArtha Stewart stay at home kinda wife by now.....

Go Hillary and yes......... I am a man

Please review past elections, the states that went red or blue and electoral college votes per state. Then do some simple math. To win in the general election, you must win the big states period. Hillary does that, Obama doesn't. Until elections become one man (or woman) one vote, then the electoral college will continue to determine who is president with the occasional "help" from the Supreme Court. Trashing each others candidate is rather pointless. Clinton supporters will not vote for Obama and Obama's will not support Clinton. If Mr. Obama receives the nomination, your new president will be John McCain.

Someone already alluded to this. Hillary is doing what the Republicans do, send uneducated white people messages that scare them into voting for them. Hillary can't win without the Republican tactics she loves to criticize. And people she is still losing, she was projected to win Ohio and Texas by 20 points just weeks ago. She won TX by 4 points. Don't be ignorant and think she did something huge here.

Clinton supporters are so pathetic.

Clinton has *NOT* been vetted. . .She says she has been and the faithful flock on her every word.

As part of her *experience* she helped her husband get elected president.

I want to know when she first heard allegations/rumors about Katherine Willey.

I want to know when she first heard allegations/about Jennifer Flowers/

I want to know if before she did her "stand by my man" routine, she knew or should have known that he was unfaithful. This was her professional *experience*that makes her qualified for the White House–It is relevant.

I want to know if in her *experience* that makes her qualified to be President she lied about her husband's personal characteristics to get him elected.

She trashed these woman. I want to know if this woman who wants to be the first female President of the United States had knowledge of her husband's issues before she trashed other woman and raped these women's lifes and reputations to enhance her husband and her professional career.

Barack Obama is an inspiration to me because of his moral code of conduct. I am far more flawed and just a beginner. GAME ON you Clintonians!

My guess is that she has done things that could get her years in prison. We will see if Teflon Bill has the goods to keep deflecting

Nevermind HER experience. She can handle herself … let's talk about YOU! Ranting and raving about your Iraq speech from 6 years ago doesn't cut it anymore. What else you got?

Our boys are giving up thier lives for a Pres who lacked Exsp. we cant afford that again, look at us now. Education does not qualify EXP MR OBAMA.

Why does she want someone who she is constantly tearing down as unqualified to be her vice president?
Hillary's nasty words will come back to haunt the Democrats in the general election.
Gimme a break about this "experience" she has. McCain will chew her up and spit her out on this point in the general. Experience means nothing without judgment. Let's get a clear contrast in this election, not more of the same!!!

Senator Obama is a good man, BUT, we need a President, not a
Motivational Speaker. I am tired of hearing about hope and change with no substance how it is going to be done. Clinton and McCain can work with The House/Senate to get things done and Obama has bascially been like a rock star without mentioning any issues! He gets the crowd wound up, preaches about change and hope, than no substance, it is redundant and people are ignorant to think someone with no plans can change Washington!

Hillary's experience is cumulative and I am sure she was well aware of many of the policy decisions in the W.H. All this negativity towards Hillary is biased. Do you realize the Repub started that smear because they didn't like Clinton after losing the WH to the Dems and they certainly couldn't accept a strong, career type woman as a First Lady. They were living in the cave-man times where the wife was subservient to her husband. Based on all this negativity, sexism still exists.

Why don't you investigate his legislative record and realize that he was given preferential treatment by the Senate president. He also hasn't spent enough time in Congress and has one of the worst records with being bi-partisan. So much for unity.

Thank you, Rhode Island, Ohio and Texas.

We love you!

Hillary is on her way to the White House.

Let the battle begin!!!! Don't forget McCain while you are in the process. His only experience is as a soldier. That is by far not enough to make a President. What we need as a President is someone who understands the people, and have the ability to bring about the economic changes neccessary to restore the world's confidence in USA. Bush and the republicans have failed us and will continue to fail us (since McCain is trunpetting "proudly" that he will keep USA in Iraq for a 100 year and have confessed that he has no clue about the economy). Democrats and disenfranchised Republicans and Independents we must rally around Obama for president and Hillary for VP to ensure that we do not let these clowns (Bush and McCain) back in the office!!!!

i live in Texas, and believe me Obama is no Angel. He Attacks his opponent & is misleading about his oponents too. Have any of you Obamaniacs read about his background or his personal beliefs?? He speaks of change, but has never actually told us how he will bring our troops home or when. He has no idea how to fix the economy, and what will he do when McCain starts to attack him. I know he will talk about not voting for the war in Iraq. Let me ask you this, did you think when the government told us about WMD's that we should go to iraq??I'm sure some or maybe even most of you did. So maybe you should think about that before you vote or attack Hillary.

Where is her "experience"? Where are her tax returns? Where is her records from being First lady? First lady is definitely not experience. Why are people voting for a president just because she is a woman and a Clinton. Being a Clinton alone should scare Americans. The Clinton administration resulted in a separation of Republicans and Democrats. Congress and the House are the most inefficient, ineffective groups of people because their focus is off the country....Thanks Clinton...
I will never vote for a lying, cheating , divisive woman, with a name that disgraced this nation. Apparently playing the victim and dirty politics works for the media and ill-informed voters. Very Sad...Obama is the people's choice, Clinton is the Machine....Who do you want to answer the phone at 3 am??????

Obama is still in the lead with delegates. For her to suggest that she's in the lead is dishonest. For her to try to claim Michigan and Florida is cheating. She's trying to steal the nomination and the media is encouraging it. Shame on you Senator Clinton.

well of course he does,
he has way more legislative experience than her, 8 yrs in the Illinois senate where he has sponsored or cosponsored over 820 bills, plus his time as a senator where he has sponsored or co-sponsored 427.

And to you Hillary supporters name one important senate bill that Hillary has sponsored and co-sponsored, just one.

I can name two major ones from Obama:

1. Coburn/Obama government transparency act in 2006
2. Lugar/Obama nuclear proliferation & convention weapons reduction act

So, stop this crap about Hillary having more experience than him, she really doesn't.

I am very disappointed in the voters. I had hoped that we as a people had progressed to the point where we saw through the tactics employed by Karl Rove and the Republican attack machine. Apparently we have not. If that is so, I'm afraid we will deserve what we get.

Finally, he should have done this on the weekend. It definately cost him Texas as they like a fighter who throws the sink back! I know he tried to take the high road but he is dealing with the Clintons...what did he expect...I am interested in what foreign policy decision she made 35 years ago when she was 27?! She has been Senator for 6 years...the other decisions were made by Bill not her! Who is actually running here? Unofficial third term of Bill? Plus get off this Commander in Chief and answering late night phone calls platform, (Neither of them in reality are remotely qualified to deal with military issues and it is becoming laughable) McCain will slaughter any nominee on this point and the Republican Machine will have a field day knocking the Dems around on this...stick to the economy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Way overdue, Sen. Obama. That experience claim is ridiculous. Being the First Lady does not give you experience as President. And when she got a job she could sink her teeth into HEALTH CARE, she failed-miserably!!
She's got a couple of more years in the Senate…so what!

35 years of experience!!! At what??

C'mon Sen. O. Let's get cracking…you've been way too nice.

Lets get real. The only real change this country needs is Hillary Clinton who will turn this country around with her universal HC, green jobs, get us out of foreign oil dependency and the Iraq war, change to a better educational system, etc. She will deliver these changes because she had proven herself as a fighter for the issues that confronts us esp those who are struggling everyday because of lack of. She is resilient and for those of you who has questions about her 35 years of experience , go to hillaryclinton.com and you will be inspired by what she had accomplished. She is a role model for all young men and women who wants to reach their god given potentials. So you can bash her all you want but I think she has the strength and the ability to withstand whatever attacks thrown at her. Her plans are not just promises for change and hope but they are solid and she will get those done when in office. She is a walker, a doer and not just a talker. Action speaks more than words. But maybe many people just want to be reinforced with speeches that makes you feel good and tingly because they do not want to see the reality out there. Do the speeches come from someone you think can deliver? Very doubtful indeed.

Hillary did not win on exeperience. The results contineu to show that she's the choice of the uniformed, uneducated and most likely bigoted in America. Preventing wins like that is the reason superdelegates exist.

CNN?? Why is the media so hush hush about Hillary scandals vs. Obama.. Obama I cant hardly find anything yet CBS had 42% of his information segment about his church, muslim, etc.. yet hardly anything but 3% devoted for Hillary segment the next night of negativity! I dont see you having any articles about her past roles in scandals and investigations and shreading of documents etc. Why is that? Have you gotten some pay for not doing this news? Probably wont post this either will you?? Got to be hush hush!

Obama wants change? All I have seen him change so far is his mind and where he stands on issues. Read his book and see how much he likes the guys he is now denouncing. As for people that think that is rejecting their support, it's not. Think about it!

The likely hood of Hillary talking about her 35 years of experience is about as likely as her getting those taxes done and out to the public.......

For those of you who have half a brain, Yes Hillary won last night...that is a whopping 14 states.....and still maybe picked up 5 whole delegates to cut into Baracks lead. I think the general elections should be held up until 2012 that way we can have more primaries and by then Hillary could catch up.

It is this simple.....She cannot catch him in states won, popular vote, or delegates....
* the Supes are going to go with the will of the people
* Barack has a better coalition of voters that include some of Hills demographics. WHile Hill thanks to Bill will NOT get over 10% of the vote from African Americans, a core Democratic group.....the supes know this.
* By Sunday Barack would have mopped up Hillary again in two more states and his delegate lead would have increased.

Old White House Politicians in Washington, BE Ready!

Mr. Obama is coming and will fire you all!

Will he fire all old school Washington Politicians?

OR
What he is going to do with old politicians like (Kerry, Kennedy, Roy Laverne Brooks, Chairman Jay Rockefeller, Byron Dorgan, and Christopher Dodd)?

Will Mr. Obama forgive and forget the whole thing since they endorsed him?

Very interesting!
Wake up and think!

Nice try... But Obama's argument doesn't hold water.

Clinton is merely stating that she has MORE experience than Obama, which isn't saying much at all. Heck, I think my Labrador Retriever has more forein policy experince than Obama!

Why can't Hillary see that, people don't like her, I can't stand this woman,I wonder how Bill stand her, I hate everything about her, and I hope Obama no matter what happen, won't run with her because I will definately not Vote for, Obama/ Hillary. Hillary is a real witch, they said Obama supporters are delusious but I think Hillary supporters are in Denial, Tell me, the math doesn't add up, she is not winning and another factor, she is not likeable, I bet so many superdelegates will vote against her when secret voting kick in during the convention, I am sure there are her close friends that won't come up openly against her but will definately vote against her in dark. Obama is just likeable, Hillary need to stop!

I'd never support that ticket. As a black voter, I will never vote for that woman. She has dismissed and demeaned the "black voter." I don't feel that Latinos and White women are the base of the democratic party. I feel the average american is the base of the democratic party and for some reason Hillary, her supporters and most of the media have forgotten that, that includes black people. Black people have voted for whites all of our lives and our vote was considered valuable. Now that we have an awesome black candidate, somehow black votes have been devalued. However, the black people are beginning to unite like we never have in a very long time. We are uniting for a coming cause. We are voting "FOR" something; not "AGAINST" someone. The latino vote was "AGAINST" a black man. Hillary Clinton has added to that conversation and has lost a very valuable ally in the black Americans. Not all black Americans, but at least 85 to 90 percent.

Go go go Obama.... the game is not over yet.... I believe 100% your change will work... Please "Change the White House to be Black House"... We hope you will win and take care of our people in Africa and your brothers in Asia and Middle East....

Go Obama!, Let Hilary explain her experience to the American people. Being a first lady is not foregn policy experience.

"Only in American can a sheepherder from Kenya marry a white girl" Barak Obama. I can't believe that he said that? I am shocked. Is this the beginning of the end?

Obama should also answer himself on that question - what is his foreign policy experience ??? Saying No to Iraq vote doesnt count as he wasnt there to vote... Only through experience can you gain good judgment... go Hillary!!!!!

It is time for Obama to highlight Hillary Clinton record of mis deeds and phony claims. Hillary Clinton does not have the moral values to claim the title of Commander in Chief. Her husband dishonored the title and Hillary would do the same. The problem with Clinton is not her gender, or her commander and chief experience. She has none. Unless you have been in the military you can never claim expereince as a military leadership. It's morals... Clinton has poor moral values.

I believe that the people are now realizing that Hillary Clinton is the best candidate to oppose John McCain. It is evident that she is intelligent, strong and certainly has good judgement.

Although Obama may have attracted the attention of the young people, much like the "rock stars" do, he is definitely NOT READY yet to lead this country, which is fraught with problems. Perhaps in 8 years, after he has become seasoned, he will be ready.

It is about time, that America, the most progressive, most admired country in the world, catches up with the rest of the world in electing a woman President. GO HILLARY.

If Hillary's years in the White House as First Lady had any substance to them we would all know exactly what the logs showed that she has not released. For a candidate to run with the First Lady experience as part of her platform and not having taken the steps to have the proof available at the beginning of her campaign smacks of a tactic that claims experience without providing the known documentation that would proove or disprove the claim.

If I remember correctly, Bill Clinton was paid by the Arab country that wanted to own a port in the United States that Congress soundly rejected as being against the National Security Interests. Is this why the Clintons' won't release their tax returns or divulge the income sources that provided a loan to her campaign?

Why does CNN and the media not dig into these matters that go to the core of the Clinton claim for experiences and national security record?

Show us your taxes!

Where is the money coming from?

If your so vetted where's the returns.

What are you hiding?

Solutions how ABOUT ANSWERS?

To all of the Hillary fans...she won't beat McCain because no red state will turn blue with her as the nominee and some blue states will turn red. People hate her and will never vote for her. The right-wingers will come out in droves to vote against her. Obama will put red states in play because he's campaigned in all states and he'll keep the blue states that John Kerry and Al Gore won.
Keep going Obama!!! Go after her claim of experience. If being in the White House counts as experience, then the White House chef should be running for president.

Clinton-Obama!!! Stop the fight. Unite for the benefit of everybody.

Way overdue, Sen. Obama. That experience claim is ridiculous. Being the First Lady does not give you experience as President. And when she got a job she could sink her teeth into, she failed-miserably!!
She's got a couple of more years in the Senate...so what!

35 years of experience!!! At what??

C'mon Sen. O. Let's get cracking...you've been way too nice.

First he says on te campaign trail that she has to take the good with the bad for the Bill CLinton Presidency. Now he says she can't use that experience at all?

Hillary was not sightseeing in China in 1995 when she took the Chinese leadership to task – on their on soil – for violating human rights. At the Fourth World Conference on Women, "Speaking more forcefully on human rights than any American dignitary has on Chinese soil," according to the New York Times which has not been kind to her lately, then First Lady Clinton spoke up for human rights. But I suppose that does not count for experience to the Obama supporters.

Hillary was not sightseeing in the Balkans in 1999; she was negotiating with the government of Macedonia to accept refugees. But I suppose those refugees were not fashionable enough for the Obama supporters.

In 2005, the Franciscans International honored Senator Clinton through their "Africa Desk initiative" for "her work to eradicate extreme forms of poverty by providing micro-loans specifically for women around the world." But I suppose that does not count for experience to the Obama supporters.

If experience was such a big deal then why isn't Joe Biden still in the race?

I've been scratching my head for six months while she's waved her banner of "experience." She has as much experience as the white house receptionist. If I'm a doctor, does my wife have the authority to write prescriptions or treat patients? And if she's talking about being in the Senate longer than Obama, we're talking 3 or 4 years difference... has she really been "tested" much more than he has in this short time? Furthermore, take a look at the pieces of legislation they've both written or sponsored. Most of Hillary's bills have to do with nonsense like making formal motions to congratulate the champion lacrosse team at Syracuse or renaming a building after Warren Berger. All of Obama's legislation (many co-written with GOP counterparts, showing the ability to make progress across party lines) have substantive value, like nuclear leak accountability from power plants in the U.S., weapons nonproliferation and cooperative threat reduction.

This isn't Obama going negative, this is fact. No scare tactics, no buzz words, he's just asking voters to look at her so-called "experience".

Here goes Mr. I did not do it, you did again!!!
It blows me away... This guy is such a baby...
Yes, she has much more experience and I would NEVER want to see him negotiate anything with another country at this stage of his early government experience... He is simply not ready...
She is thoroughly better in contrast to him!!!
Examine it (without lying and pointing blame)...

She has more than you. What do you have Obama? a speech? What else??

Other than maybe Political Science 101, NOBODY KNOWS what foreign affairs/military experience Obama has. at least Hillary is a member of the Armed Services Committee. Does he know what a rifle feels like? Can he name one general or admiral that is on his side. Bush got us into Iraq because of his "judgement", are we condemned to four more years of nail-biting, nervous "judgements" from Obama?

.....Just wondering....If Hillary becomes President, how will she feel sitting at the desk of the Oval Office...think she'll wipe it down every day?......Must seem like returning to the scene of the crime.

Hillary is selfish. She does not have one authentic bone in her. Look at how she has acted throughout her campaign. She will say and do anything to let herself look good even if she is hurting her own party.

She is fake!

Did I really see this comment???

"obama is going negative! what a phony, so much for hope!! go hillary 08"

Wow, if that isn't the pot calling the kettle black, I don't know what is. All the moderators/commentators could talk about last night is that Hillary's wins came as a result of mudslinging. I find it incredible (and I'm a McCain supporter by the way) that ANYONE supporting Hillary could find fault with Obama "going negative".

It's a sad thing when Americans keep voting based on fear. I can't believe that 3:00 am phone call ad actually swayed people. When are we ALL going to learn that this nation needs to heal and move forward–and leave our fear behind us?

Obama still has the delegate lead which he'll definitely keep, even if it's narrow and the superdelegates will do the right thing: vote for the person who received the most pledged delegates (not to mention popular vote and states).

Obama: yes we can!

Obama doesn't have a leg to stand on in comparison to Clinton. To say or IMPLY that Obama has MORE or even EQUAL experience to be president compared to Clinton is absolutely delusional and utterly false. You might agree or like Obama more, but Clinton is the more experienced candidate overall.

The only real thing he can say that works in his favor, at least in the SHORT-term (he will be crucified by Republicans in the long-term because of this, and ultimately lose) is that he didn't vote for the war in Iraq. Of course this is misleading anyway because he wasn't a U.S. Senator at the time. In other words, he couldn't vote against the war because he couldn't vote!

C'mon Obama. Stop pretending you have more or equal or better experience. Stop giving vague promises of "change" without specific, concrete plans that actually differ substantially from Clinton. In my opinion, Obama IS the status quo. Clinton is the real agent of change in this election.

Here goes Mr. I did not do it, you did again!!!
It blows me away... This guy is such a baby...
Yes, she has much more experience and I would NEVER want to see him negotiate anything with another country at this stage of his early government experience... He is simply not ready...
She is thoroughly better in contrast to him!!!
Examine it (without lying and pointing blame)...

CNN has made the statement that "The American people are tired of all of this" in reference to the Clinton/Obama campaigns. I, being an "American People" am not tired of this. The political process we see in action on the Democratic side is amazing to watch and is waking us up. What I am tired of, is CNN telling us what we should be thinking and biasing the vote.

Obama is going negative? Like Hillary didn't do that a long time ago.
BTW, if HC is so in tune with those that have to work for a living, I wonder how she got $5 million of her own to contribute to her campaign. Haven't seen a multimillionaire yet who understood what it was like to have to count pennies to see if you could go out to McD's for a meal.

Joe...actually Obama did not lose anything. He gained enough to continue his lead in delegate count. He also maintains more than half a million popular votes than Hillary. However, this is the nomination process and not the general election and therefore the delegate count is key...which Obama wins. What you don't understand about Obama's campaign is that they've actually closed the gap enough in Texas and Ohio to where HRC could not come back into the game. So his momentum continues to roll forward...leaving HRC to simply make empty quips and remarks about a dream ticket, where she should be the second fiddle, at best. It would have been great if Obama swept last night. But he did not have to to win.

Senator Obama is highly intelligent, logical, rational, and forward-thinking. That is enough experience for me. He also seems to talk to people instead of at them. That to me is a contrast whose advantages don't seem to be understood enough by the public.

Senator Clinton’s campaign has not gone negative on Obama. The Senator is just pointing out inconsistencies in the Obama rhetoric. Four things have come to light what else is out there. His campaign talked to Canada about NAFTA and then he lied about it. He has not held oversight hearings with the committee he chairs on NATO. He has not answered all the questions regarding his involvement with Rezko. He claimed in the last CNN debate that he has released all the data on the earmarks he has received for his state since he has been a US Senator but he only released the data for 2007, where is the data for 2005 & 2006? IF THE PRESS IN THIS COUNTRY WERE DOING THEIR JOB THEY WOULD BE BRINGING UP THESE QUESTIONS. To the press corps WAKE UP and start doing your job !!

Obama better watch out because thus hears a bit of negativity toward the Hillary camp. Can we say 'smear'. Now I thought he was against that??? I guess he's going the way of NAFTA, 'it was all just political rhetoric'.

No more soft ball its about time . she has many skeletons in her closet

I question Hillary's experience – as someone said being married to a Doctor does not make you qualified to do surgery. As first lady you may have met foreigh leaders, but what did you discuss the weather or national security issues?
As to answering the phone – it rang 11 times before you picked it up. That tells me you're not to willing to respond to a crisis.

Even in Ohio, why out of all of the cities did they have problem's with not having enough ballots, in the city of Cleveland which has a large black population. Sen. Clinton Will DESTROY THE PARTY IF SHE THINKS SHE IS GOING TO WIN THIS NOMINATION JUST FROM THE SUPERDELEGATES, AND GETTING FLORIDA AND MICHIGAN TO COUNT. Sen. Clinton needs to come clean about her TAX RETURNS. I hope Sen. Obama will put more pressure on her to release them. He has released his every month with no problems, but she keeps avoiding the question. The MEDIA IS NOT PUTTING ENOUGH PRESSURE ON Sen. Clinton also to release her TAX RETURNS. I believe the truth will come out in the end, and people will see the Clinton's for what they really are.

YES WE CAN
OBAMA/WEBB '08

There is No way Obama will win in the G.E

Check out the record of the winning states of Obama and Hillary

Most of the states Obama won are belong to Repulican party, so in G.E he will get none electoral on those state. But Hillary won most of the Key states in the G.E, that is a big credit for her in November. She also won 2 big states, California, and New York, these 2 states will give her almost 100 electoral count. So you know which one independent voters are choosing.

I HOPE Obama goes negative on Hill and gives her a taste of her own medicine. Then the playing field will be leveled like she requested.

The only responsible for losing is Obama. Hillary is not running a negative campaign, that is his excuse, she is just telling the truth. If so, he responded to Hillary's ad being negative as well, he is so arrogant that can't stand loosing!
Hey Obama, is Hillary bullying you?.

Facts are talking Obama, that's all:
- NAFTA meetings behing his back and his top economic advisor hasn't been fired? Humm
- Rezko deal a mistake. Is that an example of his good judgement? Humm
- His winning card: His opposition to the Iraq war. He has to finish his statement though ... that lasted for about two years, then he agreed with the way Bush was conducting the war and by 2004 he voted in favor of Iraq funding. Humm

Be prepared Obama because all the above will be a piece of cake compared to what Republicans have in store for you!

Hillary'08!

All her "experience" as first lady could not enable her to prevent her husband from getting involved with an intern.

Ohio is important because in almost 100 years no candidate has lost Ohio and won a general election. Despite momentum Barak lost.

Pennsylvania is important because the state was in play last time around between Bush and Kerry. Despite momentum Barak is polling far behind Clinton

Florida is important for dems to win in the electoral college. Barak lost [with record turn-out].

Texas is important because of a huge swath of Hispanic voters important in the general election. Despite momentum and out spending Clinton, Barak lost, as he has in every other state with a large hispanic population – making California, which he lost and which has a Republican governor, vulnerable.

Obama supporters keep looking at national numbers and fail to look at an electoral college map. If he's the nominee, given the numbers in critical states, I don't see how he can win in November., period!

Try the first woman ever in American History to serve on the Armed Services Committee.
That is a swell starter. For seconds, I suppose one could doubt she ever dealt with foreign leaders with Bill.
Of course, that would match with Obamas experience, wouldn't it?

The super delegates should be careful. The world is watching. If Obama gets treated unfairly the Democrats will not take back the white house. Make no mistake about it : we will not align ourselves with Hillary if the super delegates do not do the will of the people. This is not politics as usual the poeple will have a voice. No thanks Hillary ,we are looking for change not more of the same

Geesh "Joseph, NY, NY" ....Do us a favor and break that drivel up into some paragraphs and put some periods in there. I got a headache just trying to read it.

Sen, Obama is quite correct when he speaks with regard to Mrs. Clinton foreign expereience. As a foreigner watching this political event it is sad to watch the dirty tactics that Mrs. Clinton uses to win. This is a view shared by many . Presently, she is using her husbands records not a record of her own.

Additionally, I would like to add that a leader is one who unites persons of all ages, which Obama displays with confident. The Obama momentum has spread globally. Overall he should continue to focus on the issues and his accomplishment that has brought him thus far.

obama can't win big states. How is he gonna beat mccain, if he can't win big states? Hillary proved she can win big states. The fact that he belongs to a jew hating separatist church for 20 years, that honors Farrakkhan is scary. His connections to a man who bombed are pentagon, capitol building and a police headquarters in the 1970's, who is a member of an anti-american group speaks volumes about his judgement. now this rezko trial, and his connections to an iraqi business man who launderd money for saddam husein, is starting to surface. Is this the "change" america wants?

Clinton won for McCain yesterday. Rush got his wish. Just loving this cat fight. looking forward to Denver.

Clinton has no presidential experience.Will it be Bill running America again ? How about those tax returns -- yes, those tax returns ?
Obama plays a clean campaign yet Hillary ' s one is dirty.Hilary never takes a lot of time to congratulate Obama but Obama does.I would prefer a respectful president because if Hilary does not respect Obama, how will she respect people.With Hilary, it ' s not about the American people but about the Clinton fame.It ' s a pity that people are being fooled.

Tony, hey you know what? I have 25 years + experience of teaching English on the college level, and a PhD that took me years to save money to pay tuition for as well as years to finally earn it. I am not the only college educated non-blue collar worker who sees how the media caters to whom they like. Also don't denigrate blue collar workers. This country runs on their backs (one of my sons-in-law is a steamfitter). Moreover, green-collar workers, as Hillary rightly points out, will join blue collar workers to re-set the economy so you and I can continue to enjoy America.

I have watched Senator Clinton and President Clinton, use tactics over the last few weeks that could only be decsribed as deplorable, and the MSM has simply followed their lead; Nothing has been off limits. I have watched Senatore Clinton, play up her Gender and even use race when it was useful and expedient. I watched the wrath of former President Clinton as he chastised a Black man by back handing him(how humiliating). Although, I voted for Bill Clinton twice, and I hoped that there would be a Clinton Obama ticket or an Obama Clinton ticket, I have to say that this race has thoroughly changed my mind, I will never vote for Senator Clinton under any circumstance, and many of my friends, family and fellow Obama supporters have said the same thing. African Americans have been loyal to the Democratic party, but no more; Senator you are back but at what cost. If Senator Clinton gets the Democratic nominee, even with Obama as her Vice Presidential running mate, I will change to the party of Lincoln, and I will urge everyone that I know to do the same. I will never vote for Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton; ever.

Hillary had to go negative to win and also feed the John McCain some attacks lines against Dems. How can true dems vote for Hillary now?
Remember, Barack still has to lead so don't get to excited Hillary supporters.

Also, did everyone know that Bill Clinton met with Rush Limbaugh....the enemy....this tells you the Clinton's will say and do anything to win.

PA, get ready !! We need you guys to put Obama over the top!!

Obama 08'

On what basis is Hillary more qualified?? First Lady does not make her better Is Laura Bush qualified??

Bottom Line here: Obama wanted to run a clean race but it is clear now that the Clinton's want to play rough so he MUST get tough if he wants to win. I think the people see that the "old politics" is all the Clinton's know and Obama has no choice but to fight back!!

Let's look at the overview and how the campaigns have been run to date. Clinton with all her experince has run a bad campaign even within her own people there is in-fighting and decention. Obama for a man with less experince and political savvy has run a magnificent campaign- well organized and united. He is a born leader and this is just a preview of how he would lead this country to a new better place here at home and around the world.
A President must be a good leader and the campaigns show who is better qualified to lead and unite.

The media is making a big argument tht she won come on now she didnt win republicans voted for her just to make it more of a mess for the democrats the news media knows that they just wanna make money of it

Hillary's claim of experience is sketchy -at best. It is the right time in the campaign (and very appropriate) to examine the other candidate's claims. Obama is running a good campaign.

On the other hand, by Hillary going negative (again) still reaks of desperation.

Obama is not innocent and he too has played the dirty politics card.
Go Hillary 08!!!

Obama's on his way DOWN!!!

Thank God..............People are finally starting to see this guy for what he is. "An Empty Suit"

GO HILLARY!!!

look byond, with all due respect, if Barack took your advice and told Hillary those things that you suggest, his run for president would be over in a heartbeat.

Obama had a "too busy" problem.

He made it to the Senate and became chairman of the Foreign Relations committee. Yet, he was "too busy" to hold one hearing. Not one? He was "too busy" to call even one Bush administration official. Not one. He was "too busy" to focus in Afghanistan. He was "too busy" to visit one Eastern European country. He was "too busy" to meet with the newly elected British Prime Minister.

Yet Obama was not "too busy" when it came to write letters urging for loans for Tony Rezko. His campaign donor then secured 14 million in loans and personally profited by those loans. Rezko was not in Obama's legislature district but that did not keep Obama from being "too busy".

Sorry, I am "too busy" to listen to Obama whine now.

You had a chance and the leadership and judgment you exhibited was not Presidential but hey you were "too busy".

It's about time the media started questioning Hilary's "experience" claim. We've all bought into it just because her last name's been around for a while, but what has she really accomplished? For starters, Hilary bungled health care reform, while Obama actually helped extend health care to thousands of children in his home state of Illinois while he was still just a state senator.

As a U.S. senator, Obama's has co-authored much more sweeping legislation like the Lugar-Obama nuclear nonproliferation initiative, the Obama, Hagel, Cantwell, Smith Global Poverty act, and the "Google for Government" act with Sen. Colburn. This shows he has a vision that he's able to get people from both sides of the aisle to work on.

It's time to do our homework, people, and shed some light on Hillary's claim of 35 years of experience.

There was a time I would have been glad to vote for a Clinton but not this year. She would do anything say anything to try and win a vote. She is 61 years old been in politics for 35 years. Tell me just what has been her accomplishment? besides sticking by an unfaithful husband does that make a president? What is she hiding that she does not want the nation to know until she has won the ticket- what about her income tax ?you can bet it's something she does not want out until nothing can be said or done. We need new leadership someone who the people will have a voice in government and not everything done in secret behind close doors, the usual political way.

I think her decisions on the Ira war and her marriage crisis were both poor choices. I do not want her making decisions that affect my life.

Yea, where is the proof of Hillary’s foreign politic credential? About the 3:00am call, I would not like Hillary to come near the phone! The Clintons cannot win without the politics of destruction!

Obama only has two years of experience. Hello? Hillary has more experience than he does and that is a fact. Let him try to prove otherwise, I like to see him make a fool of him self. In-addition she did not pull the fear card. I'm so tired of people saying that. She's the better candidate and Obama lover's need to wake up and smell the coffee. Hillary all the way 08.

GO CLINTON.

OBAMA IS PHONY

THANKS OHIO VOTERS.

CLINTON WILL WIN AND HE SHOULD WIN

Yes! Obama is 100% correct. She has visited more than 80 countries as a "first lady", but not to negotiate or handle crisis. He is absolutely right. Just think about it, would u vote for our current first lady, just because she's the wife of a President ? I agree, Sen. Hillary is in the senate, but Obama has been in the Senate much longer than she has been there. While in the senate, he made the right choice about the Iraq war, but Hillary voted for it. Everyone knows this, if they dont know this, they are probably very ignorant to just believe whatever Hillary tells them, and then finally when she's president, she will let you all suffer. I saw when she was in Ohio, she was saying she wants to bring jobs to Ohio, but when she was in texas she's saying she wants to bring jobs to Texas. I am sure when she is in Pennsylvania, and other states, she will say the same thing about their states, and finally after she wins, we Americans don't get anything. It's not that i am against her, but I think Obama is the best candidate, both in judgement wise, and in experience in the senate. I think Hillary thinks experience means being the wife of a President, and being in washington and getting money from the lobbyist. If that is what AMerican people think experience is, then Hillary is your choice, but if you think the person who has been in the senate more longer, and has not taken money from the lobbyist for his campaign, and the person who really cares about all Americans irrespective race, gender, or ethnicity, then Obama is your choice.

I've been reading some of the comments and had a couple of questions?

Why would democrats defect to McCain if Obama got the nomination? What!!! And this the very scare tactic that makes me not like the win at all cost attitude that Senator Clinton has. Don't get me wrong I am for Obama, but if Senator Clinton pulls it out I would get behind her, isn't this what she says-no matter what, we will be united.

Another question, given this united front, doesn't make since that who ever the wins the nomination, would get the democratic vote? O'bama, Clinton, Edwards to beat the Republicans.

But you see I think that if she doesn't win, she's going to head this thing in the wrong direction--We can't beat the Republicans if we can't past our own egos.

The negative angle supports that fact that she'll risk polarization. What will she be able to get accomplished in Washington with the I'm the best and if you don't like it, I'll take my ball and go home.

She wasn't worried about not having Michigan and Florida when she thought she had the nomination on lock. Rules are Rules and more delegates means in the end that's what the people wanted.

when you get dick (cheney) and (george) bush, you get screwed. what's up with the white house news conference today? is john mccain a george dubya puppet already? wil the bush dynasty continue ?

inquiring minds wanna know.

GREAT POINT, Senator.

What exactly is this "experience" Hillary is so fast to tout?

She's an empty pant-suit!

It's unfortunate she's intent on destroying the party.

Wolf Blitzer and Hillary Clinton at couple of CNN reporters are intent to distort the truth. It is apparently obvious that they're unwilling to look into or force Hillary Clinton's two release her tax records and the documents that they have not released about her history in the White House and there is a reason for that I just hope all the Republicans that switched to Democrats was not just a tactic to elect Hillary Clinton because John McCain has a better chance of beating her and all her baggage that she's is unwilling to release we as American people in this election. Have the right to have all the information relevant to the person running for office available to us it is obstruction of the democratic process

The only phone call that she would receive is "It's 3 a.m. in the morning, do you know where your husband is?", with the call originating from some sorority house in Georgetown.

The simple fact is Senator Obama HAS held an elected office LONGER than Senator Clinton. 8 years as the wife of a President while somewhat relevant DOES NOT mean you can handle a crises call at 3AM. It is a FACT that Bill Clinton received those calls. It is also a FACT that Hillary could not have been in the meeting to discuss strategy and make decisions on what to do when those calls came in. Why you ask? Because she, as first lady, DID NOT, have the security clearance to BE in the room discussing those matters.

Hillary if YOU are running for president then run. Don't piggyback on your husband's accomplishments unless you are willing to release the documents which show EXACTLY what your role was and what positions you took.

People understand, going negative means personal attacks, race baiting, gender baiting. It does NOT mean you can't questions a candidates experience. It does NOT mean you can't criticize a candidates policies. It IS a fair question to ask Senator Clinton to provide details on her experience just as she has challenged Senator Obama to do the same.

Where is Obama “clean” campaign?
He is the same politician like everybody else. NO different.
I don’t see him as agent of change.

He is going to be sorry he asked for evidence of her experience. Now it just gives her more of a platform to talk about it. She has details up the wazzoo about experience. Her autobiography is full of them. She is ready to go into detail. She can only benefit from a discussion about all of the things she has accomplished overseas and while First Lady of Arkansas and of the US, a Senator, a law professor, an attorney, a board member of numerous organizations and an activist for children and families. Plus, the National Archives will be releasing the White House records this month.

Just remember, she didn't travel to 80 countries to get a suntan.

Does anybody remember saying in the 90's, that Hillary is in charge not Bill. Where are you people now. How much experiance does Obama REALLY have? Elected in 04. In senate jan 05. Been running for pres for a year. So by my math 2.5 years. In 04 he said he doesn,t have enough experiance to run for pres. NOW HE DOES!!?? Why when he was way behind in delegates wasn,t everybody (media) telling him to drop out. Come on penns primarys. Go Hillary!!!

At this point, I don't mind if Obama goes negative on her, it seems her kind of tactics are the only ones her uneducated supporters can understand. Like someone said above, they don't understand how politics work. Simply put, they can understand a Steven Segal Movie but will get lost watching something like Michael Clayton.

He clearly has nore legislative experience than she does. All she has is her role as first lady, a failed universal health care policy under her husband administration and the infamous authorisation to invade Iraq. She has no experience to be commander in chief. She lacks wisdom and integrity. In contrast Obama has all of these presidential qualities and more.

She needs to be EXPOSED! She's a phony and a danger to this country. I'm not interested in a dream ticket inviolving her. Enough said!

OBAMA / EDWARDS 08!!!

Congratulations Senator Clinton.

The manner in which you won Ohio and Texas has proven that you will win at any cost. You and the ‘kitchen sink’ have unquestionably divided the Democratic Party and put America’s future at risk. Americans are sick and tired or dirty politics. Shame on you Hillary!

So Senator Clinton, for the sake of our great nation, please provide details regarding your foreign policy experience. And while you’re at it, can you release your tax information?

Or do the American people have to wait until 3 o’clock in the morning on January 20th, 2009?

AMERICA PLEASE WAKE UP AND SMELL THE HYPOCRISY!!!

Senator Obama has far less experience than Senator Clinton. And like it or not, her years in the White House exposed her up front and personal to what it requires to be President of the United States. Obama continually says he was against the war in Iraq and therefore has better judgment. Had he been a Senator at the time with the same information that was available to all the Senators he can't say how he would have voted. What about his judgment when purchasing his home with the help of Rezko's wife?
GO HiLLARY 08!

The way I see it, if Hillary can dish it out then she should also be held accountable for the so many negatives in her closet, not just when it is beneficial to her. What amazes me, is that she is willing to fuel an unrepairable division between her and the democratic party.

Hillary doesn't have a prayer in November. PETER PAUL Vs CLINTON! The accusations thrown at Obama pale in comparison to what Hillary has already done, which the media for some bizarre reason refuses to report. SHE HAS TO TESTIFY IN COURT FOR ALLEGED ELECTION FRAUD IN OCTOBER BEFORE THE ELECTION!!! SHE WAS CAUGHT ON TAPE. REPORT IT!!

I was a full supporter of Hilary Clinton until recently and now very disappointed with her actions. I find it disturbing that the Clinton campaign is resorting to "dirty" politics within the Dem race and then after sercuring the Texax/Ohio primary, offers the notion to be part of a dream ticket along side Obama. This situation is very similar to praising and being honored to race with Obama during the texas debate, yet immediately afterward becoming as critical towards him as ever, regarding issues that arose weeks before the debate. Issues that were not false. This is the two faced politics we have seen in the past eight years of the Bush administration and my trust is shaken. Is the way she acts towards a fellow democratic candidate the way we want her respresnting the U.S. to the world? Her sarcasm towards fellow qualified professionals could have extreme consequences when delivered to other world leaders.
I also find it strange that while being interviewed or delivering a speech, her eyes wander up, down, everywhere but focused on the person or people she is speaking to. Isn't this an obvious sign of deception?
To date Obama has not engaged in any dirty politics which plays a significant role in his campaign based on hope, unity and inspiration. He has only responded with proven facts in defense of exagerated attacks.
I still feel that if Al Gore ran as an independent it would be the best option for America and the world. Fear of spliting the democratic vote could be unrealistic at this point. I think America realizes that the purest form of Change is independent with a candidate that has proven that the well being of America's people and the people of the world is his primary concern.
I feel that both parties at this point at corrupt and although I believe in what Obama stands for, the Dem party will hold back the dreams of his hopes and plans for merica, I feel the true "dream ticket" is Al Gore for pres and Obama for VP and break the trend of party control which both clearly have alterior and finacial motives.

Hillary is keeping her experience a secret, like her tax returns.how about white water ,how about NAFTA princees sorry ohio she fool you ,sorry Rhodalane she fool im from virgian she never ever fool us .how about the guy killed himself at park,how about linclon bedroom was for rent,america please dont bring billry again .

Question for all you Hillary fanatics... It's 3Am and you need emergency surgery. Your doctor is not available .... do you allow his wife to operate based on her long marriage and knowledge of medicine? What a laugh her experience is. And as for the old Clinton administration's handling of foreign affairs, lets discuss somalia and serbia and ... gawd, exactly what foreign issue did old Billy boy handle so brilliantly??????

I agree with Obama. What 'experience?' Being first lady? Then perhaps Laura Bush should be our new Sect. of State. I have visited several countries as well...perhaps I have more 'experience' than I realize. She has 35 years of experience and he has 20...because she is a lot older than him! By that logic, John McCain must be the most experienced of all since he is in his 70's! (Oh, and by the way...wasn't this the same claim made against her husband when he ran? Guess she must not have voted for him since experience matters so much....or did he do a horrible job because of his lack of 'experience?' Maybe someone should ask her.

After 7 years of "If you say it enough, people will believe you" politics that has plagued this country...I for one will not be signing up for another 4 years with Hillary's "I have more experience" even though there is no evidence of that or "I'll show you my tax returns once it's too late to reverse your vote." Sounds way to familiar to this current disaster. Why should Obama have to get in the mud with her to win? She is all Old-style politics for the sake of winning. She is 100 percent ego driven. Way to set the Repuplicans up for a win Hillary!

Can people really be that dense that they are falling for it? They must be...that's how Bush got two terms. I'll take my chances with someone who is NOT indebited to half of Washington, someone who IS NOT totally disliked by Republicans, someone who actually has a fighting chance to make a difference because he has not spent years building up enemies....that's Obama for those of you who have trouble catching on.

I sure love reading about how Obama supporters will not vote for Hillary in 2008 if she gets the nom. You're gonna spend all this time talking about how polarizing a figure she is, how she can't unite the country, and she can't get the support of republicans – and then you are going to sabotage her to make your point, and ensure more Bush policies in the whitehouse for at least 4 years??? SENATOR OBAMA HIMSELF admits that his policies are extremely close in line with those of Senator Clinton – yet it's more important to you that you prove your point that she's not electable than to make sure these policies are enacted???

If he loses the nom and throws his support to her (which he'd BETTER do, if he wants to retain any credibility with the Democratic party) you guys are gonna tell me you are STILL going with McCain, out of principle??

This is why so many people call the Obama following cult-like and dangerous.

john mccain has the demeanor of a press secretary standing next to president bush.

~~~ LOL!!! ~~~~ So much for Mr. Change ! "MR. I do not play the "silly politics" of old Washington.

He is a POLITICIAN for crying out loud. For any to beleive that he is a "clean politician" it's not a smart move.
You cannot tell people you are a "new" kind of politician when you are playing the same cards as everyone else.

REMEMBER THE MISLEADING FLYERS YOU CIRCULATED?? OH, THAT'S RIGHT ....ONLY "YOU" ARE ALLOWED TO GO NEGATIVE! BUT NOONE HAS THE RIGHT TO GO NEGATIVE ON YOU??!! GIVE ME A BREAK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

From the results it looks like we have a race-gender war. Blacks voted for Obama by 85% to 15% for Hillary and woman voted for Hillary 54% to 46% for Barrack.

Bad sign. The worst think that could happen is the November election turn into a "political civil war", with the Buffon Al Sharpton and the Fornicator Jesse Jackson standing on the stage with Barrack OR Hillary and her knitting club be catering to the woman vote. It will make the US look bad to the rest of the world. The 85% black vote to Obama. Is a white backlash predicted.

BobbyJ

At least she visited 80 countries and knows people. Obama has none, nothing, only talk. By the way, what is more Washington politics than saying one thing and meaning a different thing. Obama will say anything to get nomination. NAFTA is not the only Obama hollow.

It'd be nice if CNN did a story on the Republican vote yesterday in the Democratic Primaries. After Obama won the Republican vote in states like VA (72-23) and WI (72-28) at an average of 2:1 (75%-25%), suddenly the Ohio exit polls show a 49-49 tie and Texas a 53-46 split for Obama. With Republicans making up about 10% of the vote in both states, this was truly the difference in Hillary's "victory".

CNN was all over Limbaugh's Republican plan to sabotage the election on Monday, yet there's no mention about it today now that the plan appears to have gone through. How about it?

I agree with Eric in Lincolnton, NC, Alot of voters will give their vote to McCain if Obama gets the Democrat nomination. Hillary has the best chance of beating McCain and yes, I believe thats because more Americans do see her as more experienced than Obama. I think most people realize that Hillary wasn't just a "hostess" type of 1st Lady, but was very much involved with Bill's political career from the get go. That does, in my opinion, count as experience. I also count the fact that she has Bill's experience on her side also. I'm neither conservative or liberal, but somewhere in the middle, as most Americans are, and I see Hillary as best representing that.

I agree HILLARY as president she personally helped me and my disability. HILLARY !!!!

Tony if you think Hillary is playing dirty politics, just wait until the fall when the masters of dirty politics get started using all of Karl Roves tricks. If Obama can't take the soft gloves approach used by Hillary, he will be toast when the masters of dirty politics using all of Karl Roves dirty tricks get done with him.
Except for the first time Obama ran for Illinois state senate, and lost, he has never had a tough political fight. His Senate race was a shoe in because of the first Republicans opponents love and life and then the bused in Alan Keyes. I don't think he is up for the fight and if he's not up to the fight now, what chance has he got against the Republicans. I'm talking the swift Boaters and the rest of the dirty fighters that Kerry had to contend with along with what McCain will come up with.
Carol Ohio

Democratic are not watching the fact that even if Clinton go through, it will be their down fall due to the nagitivity and the damage she has done to the party. Obama stay calm and play safe. If God has pre-destiny you to lead them it will come, if not then, you trying all you can can't end you anywhere.

OBAMA IS RIGHT: WHERE IS THE BEEF TO THOSE "MORE EXPERIENCED" STATEMENTS OF HILLARY'S? IF SHE WASN'T EQUIPPED ENOUGH TO CONVINCE HER HUSBAND TO BE MUCH MORE DISCREET IN HIS AFFAIRS, RATHER THAN DISGRACE THE WHOLE COUNTRY; WHAT MAKES ANYONE THINK ANY WORLD LEADERS WILL GIVE HER REAL CREDIT? JUST BECAUSE SHE IS A WOMAN, AND A CLINTON AT THAT, IS NOT ENOUGH TO CUT IT IN MY BOOK AS PRESIDENT; ESPECIALLY IF YOU CAN'T KEEP THINGS IN ORDER IN YOUR OWN HOUSE.

If Hillary "only votes for what's politically popular," as Sabrina says, then why did Barak vote exactly as she did on the Iraq war after he made his way to Washington?

So far her experience has her campaigning for McCain.

"I know I have a lifetime of experience and Sen. McCain has a life time of experience that he can bring to the presidency and Obama has a speech he gave in 2004."

Her words not mine. She will use her "experience" to tear apart the Dem party and campaign for McCain. It seems interesting to me that she says that she would consider Obama for VP after giving her best friend McCain the endorsement.

I love how people claim Obama is going negative if he defends himself against Hillary's smears and attacks. Personally I think he should go after her more often! Hope doesn't let you sit idly by while someone smears your character. That's called a Dope. Obama is no Dope!

Obama 08

I find it rather interesting that since she did win three states, now she's considered the "comeback person". You will now see the true colors come throgh not to mention the Republicans that helped her by way of Rush L.

Hers's a did you know; Bill replied to Farakhan's letter by tellig him that his words were the most important words ever expressed to him by a popular leader.

Did you know; Hillary was a republican and worked in Barry Goldwaters campaign.

Did you know; There's no such thing as having experience as a First Lady that equals a President's responsibility. As we have seen, the White House is full of people with experience right now and look at the results.

Wih the big wins yesterday you are the one can win the November election, no question on that. Go Hillary go go!!!! (:

Barack Obama only made it on the national scene in 2004 democratic convention with ....a speech! He has little to no foreign national policy!! He hasn't even held a subcommittee on Afganistan because he is soooooo ambitious and wants the PREZ post already.

It is smooth of him to run the theme ole Washington with his CHANGE because HE HAS LITTLE EXPERIENCE INCLUDING FOREIGN POLICY.

HIllary has more and better–more national political experience, more foreign policy experience, better economic policies and superior healthcare policy! That is why she won Ohio, Texas, RI

Obama is just a politician who should have been a motivational speaker. OH AND WHEN DID COMMUNITY ORGANIZER QUALIFY YOU TO BE PREZ, HELL LET ME RUN FOR A SENATE SEAT AND SERVE FOR 2 YEARS AND RUN FOR PREZ.......

how come george w. won't let john mccain answer any questions on cnn ?

Trying to attack Clinton with his nice words, its crazy when I see how people say she comes for him, and yet.. they dont see that infact, he has been comming for her for the longest.

Hillary Clinton 2008!

I believe it time for all this negative campaigning to end .Let the bigger man or woman step down and give the voters what they want...
THE DREAM TICKET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

John McCain has more experience than Obama and Clinton combined.

Please Obama don't go negative. Remember you are the candidate of change. Do not stoop to her level which I feel will disappoint majority of your supporters. You are the new face of hope, so don't let us down. Stay positive and keep your head up, there is still a lot of race to go.

Obama 08

i'm still for Obama however, i will vote for an independant or Mc cain if Obama loses the democratic nomination......

Hillary can fool AVERAGE (IQ) AMERICANS in Ohio with her NEGATIVE AD's, but not SMART AMERICANS.

Go O8AMA!!!!

CNN has lately been so biased. They will never question those tax returns of the Clintons. Instead, they will say "she is back".

The truth is, this is contest. If you are keeping score, then you know Obama is ahead. CNN commentators just want to talk about his middle name and religion and Rezko. Terribly biased. With exception of a couple of guests on their election panels that are fair to both sides, the rest are vicious. Start with John Roberts, Lou Dobbs, Glenn Beck and Candy Crowley as most biased, in that order. I still CNN though, but please, be fair.

The only CNN folks that are fairly civil and not as biased are, John King, Wolf Blitzer Erica Hill and sometimes Amy Holmes. But she can have her days too.

But this is just my opinion

Senator Clinton can't have it both ways, claiming so much more experience (or "observation" of experience) but then distancing herself from her husband's accomplishments (i.e. NAFTA). Does that discredit her experience as First Lady of the US and Arkansas? No, but her Senate career is only 1 term longer than his, and she hasn't made much of her own stamp on legislation. So this "35 years of experience" is just 35 years of working – which of course she has more of, she's older than Senator Obama.

Obama pointing this out does not mean he is going negative; he is doing what he's done thus far – run a smart, well-educated campaign and articulating himself clearly to make sure the voters know what they're voting for – not a name, but actual change experience.

Whatever you do dont vote for Hillary the Neo-con!

Please end the Bush-Clinton dynasty!

Obama – Yes we can (but will we?)

Hillary – Yes we will!

Obama has no experience. He will ruin this country.

They are NOT "attack" ads, but "FACT" ADS!

Reality bites sometimes.

Hillary '08

FINALLY!!!!!!! Let's examine all this EXPERIENCE Clinton claims!!!

She had a decent night! ( Not a blow out everyone and Obama still managed to cut her pre-vote lead considerably.) Even though she threw the press and the kitchen sink at him!) She called in many favors and scared a few folks but this woman can't even run a campaign..she is obviously NOT ready for the Presidency.

And personally, she lacks the ethics and integrity I look for in a candidate! The Clintons got all the votes they will get out of me in the 90's.

Barack iis trying to run a positive campaign, but unfortunately that is not language that American politicians understand. I just hope he does not sacrifice his campaign in the name of those principles like Huckabee did....Obama is in between a rock and a hard place: Stay positive and not air Hillary's dirty laundry (which she has plenty of), or act like the Clintons and get mean and nasty.

Please bring back the hope and the change and the integrity and the honesty.

Clinton's smear campaign and false attacks are going down in flames. And if Clinton wins the nomination through her pathetic tricks and superdelegates that go against the will of the people, I'm going to vote for McCain and the hope of an uncorrupt White House.

We pray every day for Obama victory!

Obama '08!

Two thoughts:
1. Clinton has won the big states, but let's think about that... didn't both Gore and Kerry win CA, NY, IL, NJ, MA.... etc, etc? Wake up! It's not longer enough to appeal to the old-school democratic base. Been there, done that.

2. I'm fine with HRC staying in the race... but I don't want to see them competing against each other any more. They both need to go immediately into "General Election" mode and spend the next six months talking about why the country needs to put an end to failed policies of Bush/McCain.

will john mccain put george w. bush on his ticket ?

Obama like a idiot during the debate, how can he win during the GE? He knew nothing about the real stuff, just empty "chang", but how? Show me some real steps on how you going to do it, like first thing, second, third... We had enough speech, we need hard work, please... bad economy won't "chang" just by saying "change"...

First, with all the fuss surrounding the use of Obama's middle name why are they referring to Senator Clinton as "Hillary Rodham Clinton"??? Just something to think about, although throughout history this has been done repeatedly for all President's. Just something to think about.

Obama is headed in the wrong direction after the gaffs his campaign has made regarding NAFTA/Canadians, and his niavity about speaking to world leaders that are hostile to America. She has an extensive background on many committess that have to do with National Security.

Watch out Obama, you might get burned by this one!!

Many of us have been jumping on the "35 years of experience" thing for a while now. Hillary has proven one thing though- that she can use Rovian tactics as well as Karl can. He praised her on Fox Noise this morning.
The Hillary supporters say it isn't negative- just asking questions when talking about Barack's experience– so, right back at ya. We're not being negative (as you say) we're just asking questions. I see with your comments above that you are screaming NEGATIVE- just another Washington Politician...
No, he's NOT and yes, we CAN.

And your experience Barack? What might that be? What the Democrats have is two very inexperienced candidates. Both are so weak, there is an illusion in some circles that they are strong.

What's wrong with u people?? Bill Clinton did excellent as president. We had Booming economy, New jobs, New programs,etc. His personal scandal..plz who cares; what really matters is how he did as president/ not as husband. As First lady Hillary began the chips program, stars and headstart for children (which my child and many have benefited from). TRIED and Thought about the Universal Health Plan way before Obama. Anyway she did these and many more achievements as First lady. She will be an excellent President. Do your research she has had far more achievements than Obama. Obama is okay but do we really know him, we know her; all she has done is well for are country. Some say she can't handle her husband, therefore can't handle being president, that is ignorant to say. She did great with that whole situation. What does that have to do with her running/being president. Still has a smile on her face, still waking up every morning and fighting till the end or the beginning? She is one tough lady and that's it ! HILLARY 2008!!!!!!!!!!Don't hate >Where is the love. GO GO HILLARY!!!!!!!

please don't get down low and dirty, i think you are too smart for that

Hilliary went negative and throws kitchen sink. Hilliary supporter say Yeah! Obama is about to throw the toilet at her and Hilliary supporters say Boo!

And did I mention the HRC fearmongering ad?

And then she has the audacity to suggest he should be VP!? After you dissed the man?! Oh no!

Hilliary supporters why won't she release her tax papers? There is absolutely no way Obama would consider her as VP because she and Bill obviously have something to hide.

Hillary folks. Enjoy your few days of groveling in victory. It won't last long.

It is funny how people love to point out the flaws in Braback but not the ones in Hillary.

Hillary for president is like saying Bill (and all of his women) for President for another 8 years.

Hillary started the negative ads mid last year and then she claimed Barack attacked her with a page out of the rep. play book but she failed to mention that she has been playing from that book for years.

It is painful to see that The Helliniets have not seen through her crazy. She is giving the race back to the GOP.

She is now claiming that her attacking Barack will make him a better canidate in the long room. Now that is tiwisted. That's like saying that a person that hits his wife is making her a better wife. Twisted.

With Hillary Clinton campaigning for John McCain over Barack Obama as to his lack of experience to be Commander-In-Chief demonstates that she has put her own self interest above the party and the nation. If I were a superdelegate or a Democratic voter in an upcoming primary I would remember Hilary's priorities and vote for Obama. Her talk about a "Dream Ticket " with her as the Demoncratic Presidential Nominee is another hypocritical ploy.

I am quite offended by Ms. Charlotte's comments and wondering when will she be banned and removed

hillary needs to grow up and be an adult about her campaign.

Great, now we get to see the real Obama. The one who says he will change politics as usual and yet continues to practise politics as usual. The one who gave a speech against the Iraq war and yet took the endorsements of the senators who voted for it (Kennedy, Kerry) and voted exactly the same as Clinton, when he actually could vote. The one who acts above it all and yet took campaign contributions from Rezko. It doesn't count that you give the money to charity after you get found out, it only matters that you took the money in the first place. I am from Illinois and Obama knew rezko was shady before he took the money. Watch for Obama's name and for this to play out in the Chicago courts. I wouldn't hold Obama to such high standards if he didn't preach thenm and say he practised them, but just like the TV preachers his speeches emulate, what he says and what he does are two different matters.

When Barack Obama was running for the US Senate he said he wanted to be a Senator similar to Sen Hillary Rodham Clinton, a workhorse and not a showhorse. Now he has the AUDACITY to question her experience. It was good enough when he aspired to be her.

As far as his Chicago experience, he was a STATE legislator That is a part time position. I question how many of you even know who your current State legislators are. The comparison is aking to comparing apples to oranges.

Bottom line: He's already ceded the experience argument. You can't go back and pick it up again and remain credible.

Senator Clinton has played on the fears of people. She has yelled and stomped her feet about experience, while actually having little of it.
She is a Junior Senator from New York (only elected office). She was First Lady of the US and Arkansas...not President or Governor. She had no security clearances.

Bill Clinton was 46 years old when he took office. Senator Obama will be 47 in November. I've heard that Senator Obama is "just too young." Come on people.

How exactly will you protect us when the phone rings at 3:00 a.m Senator Clinton?

You helped take us to Iraq by not doing your homework, and casting your vote to give the current President the go ahead. You have not apoligized for this horrific error in judgment.

Did anyone notice that Obama got 84% of the African American vote? The African Americans are also really pressuring the African American Super Delegates to change their vote. Even Tony Harris mentioned the large percentage this morning. It looks like they voted for Obama because he is African American. Racial issue?

You can kick a good dog only so many times and he will eventually bite you.

come on people – Pay Attention!
open your ears and hear!

Hillary is a copy-cat. She talks about Barack and the next two weeks she is repeating what he has said. She playes the victim and then plays the bully all at the same time.

I hope the remaining states have their eyes and ears open. AND....who do you think wants to be her running mate????

Point blank... Obama is still leading even after Hillary's nasty campaign tactics. I think Obama should fight back, but do it in a way that is not counterproductive. Hillary had a good night... good for her, but it is far from over. Obama's camp has to pick up the pieces and move forward by continuing to inspire ALL Americans to unite and take back OUR government.

I have spent 20 years as an anesthesiologist and sleep in a hospital four days out of the month next to a phone that can ring at any time in the middle of the night with an emergency that is always different than the last. There are no numbers of meetings or visits to foreign countries that will prepare any of the candidates for the 3:00 AM national emergency. Thus this is old political scare tactics similar to the sentiment that put Bush in the white house to make multiple non-emergent judgment blunders. The pitiful part of this it is that she is taking advantage of the American Public by using fear to scare up votes with no substance to back it up. This is the same old ruthless dirty politics the Clintons are known for. There is a better chance that Hillary will be on another line making a multimillion-dollar book deal when the phone rings at 3:00 AM. Remember the eight million dollar book deal that was her first order of business when she became a senator. But then again she continues to hide her tax return!!!! These facts are actual behavior not hypothetical scenarios.

About the 3AM Ad, it is her vote for Iraq War that has created more terrorists and made us less safe according to our own National Intelligence. That was the Red Phone moment for her and she completely failed, even ignored to read intelligence report. Do you trust your kids safety to this..?

For me experience is also seeing how things are done and being there when things happen. She was involved in white house for 8 years where she saw how things are done. How policies are made. How negotiations are conducted. How to overcome difficulties. To deal with the congress. Although she may not have done that by herself, being their getting involved in that process as first lady for 8 years does matter.

Compared to that, Obama is merely a junior senator who even was not in this jungle of washington long enough to realize how things are done. I know that he is a fresh face with good ideas. He can talk well and have charisma. No one question that. But to deliver on these promises he need much more than charisma. He needs to fight the right way in Washington. For me Hilary is better prepared for that than Obama. She is a fighter and we saw that yesterday.

So for me, I want to see that dream ticket of Hilary and Obama to unite the democratic party and offer the best chance to win in Nov.

Nuwan from Houston

Hillary doesn't have any experience, you think that's going to work against John McCain. Do some research people. Get a grip and realize Obama is the only Washington Outsider.

I've been questioning this 35 years of experience for a long time myself. At 60, she's gotta be implying that her political career started when she was 25. The first time she was actually elected was as a NY Senator. I've never heard of a Pres./Vice Pres/First Lady Ticket so that idea of claiming that 8 years as experience is crazy to me.

Also, I wish all the Clinton supporters stop making claims that Obama supporters are "delusional", "trend voters" or "kool-aid drinkers". You say that she has solutions and not rhetoric. We believe in our candidate just as much as you believe in Hillary and I totally respect that. The truth is that all candidates are talk right now because all of their speeches and claims are based on if they win the election in November. It's those positions in their speeches that have gotten them the followings that they have. Furthermore, him responding to claims, accusations and attacks from other candidates does not make him negative. It just means that he is defending himself. Elections are all about offense vs. defense.

Lastly, I'm a Democrat first and an Obama supporter secondly. Though I want him to get the nomination, I can honestly say that I will vote for her in November if he doesn't get the nomination because I refuse to pout and vote McCain like alot of Obama and Clinton supporters are vowing to do if their respective candidate doesn't win the nomination. That kind of attitude is idiotic and absurd. We should just go ahead and give McCain the nomination since we are so divided. If it takes a joint ticket from preventing Bush vol. III from serving another 4 or 8 years then so be it.

Obama '08 (but open to the idea of a joint ticket)

Sen. Obama is going to win. His delegate lead is so far ahead that Sen. Clinton can not catch up. What would it be saying to the American people if Sen. Clinton gets the nomination just because she wins bigger states? I believe the rules are who ever wins more pledged delegates should get the democratic nomination. IT WOULD BE SAYING TO PEOPLE IN SMALLER OR MID-LEVEL STATES, HAY DO NOT EVEN BOTHER TO VOICE, IF YOU DO NOT LIVE IN A BIG STATE, OR A SWING STATE, YOUR VOTES SHOULD NOT COUNT. WE ONLY CONSIDER VOTER IN THE BIG OR SWING STATES, IS THIS DEMOCRACY? If Sen. Clinton ends up winning this nomination by the way of superdelegates or getting Florida, or Michigan to count, I will vote for John McCain. I would urge all of Sen. Obama's supporter to do the same thing. They are going to try and rob Sen. Obama of this nomination so be aware of the turmoil yet to come.

YES WE CAN
OBAMA/WEBB '08

Hillary started all of this smear campaiging when she thought she was going to lose. It worked for Clinton narrowly with a win in Texas and getting the elderly in Ohio. Now Obama unfortunatley has to go down to her level to secure the the White house. This is good for Obama though because now he will be more prepared for McCain. I believe Obama is the right choice, if not we will all hope Hillary will suffice.

That phone at 3am in the morning is a chick calling still looking for Bill..I did not have relations with that woman.

Know Please Bring On the Tax Returns....America deserves to know.

CNN are you the Clinton News Network? Why do you talk nonstop about Hillary's 3 am ad and broadcast her latest description of her foreign policy experience without doing a fact check? Ask Wesley Clark and John Mitchell about her role in Kosovo and Northern Ireland. Do your job CNN.

Sen. Hillary Clinton talks about US retired, admirals, generals, 2 chairmen of joint chiefs of staff as members of what appears to be her ‘shadow war council’. Can she remind those who are interested in her 35-year experience:
• How many currently are living US retired generals and admirals and chairmen of joint chiefs of staff ?
• Had she ever been member of the US President working of the Security Structure?
•She is talking about have been an active actor in the solving of the Northern Ireland, What then is the role of the US Sen. George Mitchell.
She is talking about her action in the crisis of Bosnia Herzegovina. What was the role (major) of the Secretary of State Madeleine Albright? And the role of the official US architect who organized the series of meetings that led the to the ultimate solution of the process. As her husband once put it: let her give people a break, and stop storytelling. What about the genocide in Rwanda?

Obama is the more intelligent and got there on his own merit and not because he is an ex-presidents spouse. I DO NOT Appreciate the comments that small states don't matter in the race. I live in IL and because of NAFTA we have suffered and that was thanks to a Clinton.
Latinos voted because of the CLINTON name recognition. I'm a Proud and educated white female union NURSE age 51 in IL. I WILL NOT VOTE FOR HILLARY in the general election. I will vote for McCain. She has too much dirt on her hands and I'm tired of the mud slinging. The answer is NO to sharing the ticket.

This elections is about what CNN,MSNMC, FOXNews deem important. Because when they continuously play the same sound bites with 5-10 pundants waying in with their opinions on Clinton's arguement of of unfair treatment, and silencing the airways concerning the undisclosed Tax returns, keeping silent the Peter paul dealings (She did not receive $2 million contribution) or the negative ads analysis towards Barack Obama, only enables the clintons to continue business as usual which provides for continuous on air time by the media.
Look what was discussed during the by-week (no primaries or caucuses). Garbage...

Scruinize Clintons experience why don't you...Signed for the war, supported NAFTA, bad dealings with former contributors, won't release tax returns...when you run out let me know, I give you some more.

Don't protect the Clinton's post this comment...
Way-to-go all media outlets...

I love how everyone one here backs up my ideas of supporters. Those who support Clinton are ranting and raveing with the same 'say everything, do nothing' attitude she has, while the Obama supporters have taken the time to think logically, look up his legislative record compared to hers and make statements of comparison. During her speeches, her supporters don't even understand what she's blabbing about half the time, the look as though they've had a lobotomy unitl she says something louder than the rest, like, "That's what we need in the White House!" then they clap and smile.

Someone up there said that if Hilary doesn't win the Democratic nomination, We will lose votes to McCain, I for one am the opposite. If Clinton becomes the democratic party's front runner, I will definately vote for McCain, If Hill-Dog is elected... I'll be singing 'Oh, Canada.' Go Obama!

Jane, Maryland-
You are so right looks like majority of all the electorates and the blue collar workers that voted for her in Ohio apparently fell for the spin master(Hillary), because obviously they do not have a college degree.

In all honesty Obama is more composed, articulate and have good control of his emotion which is one important criteria in making sound judgment. (Not being carried a way by emotions)

I am not even sure which Hillary is even going to pick the phone when the phone rings at night, is it crying Hillary a la New Hampshire, fighting Hillary a la Ohio or nice Hillary a la Houston.

Go Obama. That is the right way to go. Don't leave any stone unturned. If she can't run a respective campaign based on issues and it works then you also need to use the same tactics. God bless you. We are praying for you

As an Obama supporter, I think Obama (as well as the other past Democratic candidates) should have challenged Hillary on her 'experience' claim over three weeks ago. Obama just let it go without challenging her on it. He should point out that Hillary has been elected to public office for only 7 years as well her one "red phone call moment" was should we go to war with Iraq, and she said YES. He needs to keep pushing the issue of judgement on important issues such as going after Al Qaeda, going to war in Iraq, and dealing with Iran. He needs to show how Hillary's character and judgement are not presidential, like when she said "Putin doesn't a have soul", and then Putin responded back later "the head of a state should have a head". This also applies to McCain, especially when McCain says "that when he sees Putin he only sees KGB". This is not the type foreign policy experience that America needs!

Obama in 08!

The media needs to look at the fact that Florida and Michigan voters deserve to have their votes counted. A stupid rule should not take away the right of voters. This is ridiculous. Democrats should do better than this.

Senator Obama should not be thrown off his message by wallowing in the mud with
crocodile Clinton. That will be CNN's task for the next few weeks. While
The Clinton scandals are playing out in the media, he should be focused
on continuing to get HIS message out to the voters, who are the ony ones that are important . The rags and rats can take care of themselves.

YES WE CAN!!!!!
Obama 08.

To all the uneducated wether high school dropouts and non college educated. Please stop voting until you are understanding why and what you are voting for. Last thing we need is someone screwing up the race. TX/OH

Slick Willy or Slick Hilly it's time to get someone new in the white house who doesn't have all the special interests in mind.

Clinton has not answered her Medical Lobiest contributions since her last back door meeting on Healthcare was "Defeated". She has not answered why in her 35 years experience, the Clinton Whitehouse drew down our Armed Services to Create their Balanced budget leaving our services undermanned. The Millitary suffered under the Clintons, and Walter Reed Hospital is one example of how the clintons left our millitary understaffed and under equiped with ailing equipment . The clintons could have changed history when they had an oppertunity at 3 am to make a decision to strike at Osama Bin Ladin which would have prevented the war she claims to dislike. Judgement is more important then experince. Our millitary saw a decrease in heavy armored vehicles due to clintons desire to have a mobil light armored force. Now in Iraq we needed heavy Armor for things like road side bombs, how many lives were lost due to this, one is to many. She claims that the news media goes soft on Obama and Hard on her. But whos tax records have not been disclosed. Who has yet to answer for any negative portion of the clinton whitehouse and the decisions it made to balance its budget by raiding Social Security and cutting medicare benifits. Why are theses not being asked now. Becouse the Answers will prevent her from being nominated. And when the republicans bring this up in November she will have her kitchen sink returned to her buy people unlike her competitor who want to focus on building america instead of Emperial sharing of the whitehouse for over 20 years between two famlies. Chelsey in 2016?

Hillary is playing dirty politics. She is old Washington and that is what we want to get rid of.

We NEED to see those TAX RETURNS! What are you hiding?

Obama for 2000 and great (2008)

Pennsylvania for Obama

Geepers...I was in the military, lived in Germany for 3 years and visited 17 countries. Can I be Secretary of Defense?

Sorry about the misspell, Obama.

Your comment is awaiting moderation.
Why are all the Obama supporters so negative, I mean constantly- geeees.
I am not talking about Obamaq himself I am talking about his supporters who constantly seem to feel they have to trash the Clintons enough already!!!

Who cares about the tax returns? Why was Obama vacationing in Hawaii when a crucial vote on gun control came up in the Illinois legislature? What kind of judgment or experience is THAT? Hillary's record is found on her senate website. She has voted very strongly and in a bipartisan manner in so many national security votes, unlike Barak. That shows more cross-aisle cooperation of the principled kind that the easy party line votes of Barak Obama, the most liberal senator of 2007. As BO is fond of saying, i'm sure a debate on her experience is one she would love to have any day of the week.

Did you know :

If Obama gets the Nomination and goes on to become President. He would have more EXPERIENCE than Reagan, JFK and Bill Clinton when he enters Office. With that said how is Hillary First Lady experience worth more than Obama's?

So far her experience has her campaigning for McCain.

"I know I have a lifetime of experience and Sen. McCain has a life time of experience that he can bring to the presidency and Obama has a speech he gave in 2004."

Her words not mine. She will use her "experience" to tear apart the Dem party and campaign for McCain.

Obama is the best, i am from Pennsylvania, i am voting for him. I am 48 years old, white female. He is the best candidate that has been honest & genuine to the AMerican people so far in this campaign. Hillary has not produced her tax returns yet, whereas Obama has produced it. Hillary said she might give it out prior to the March 4th primary, but she didn't because if she had no one would've voted for her. Anyway, she can be a good Vice President, but Obama is the right candidate for President. Even republicans who support McCain know that if Hillary is the democratic nominee, McCain has good chance to beat her & become president. I think most people that write comments here bad about Obama are republicans who support McCain

There is a mechanism working here that no one is talking about. With the republican nomination sowed up prior to the March 4 primaries, i have heard a number of poeple bragging about how they switched and voted democratic. The object was to help John McCain by voting for Hillary. Just on more republican dirty trick to add to the list.

Don't even think about going that way, Obama!!!!

She does has much more experience.

The more you speak against this, the more negative you will be.

One day, your true side will show up, and we will find out who you are.

That might be good!!!!

Stop this OBAMA-MANIA, we are tired of it.

Hillary,
I guess since I live in a state that is not a big state (NY,CA, TX and OH)and really doesn't count in the big scheme of things, we "little states" should just vote for McCain.

GO OBAMA!

If senators Clinton, McCain and other deep-rooted politicians use their life long experiences as compaign rallying cries, then Sen Obama new sight on things is exactly what we need. Considering, Senators Clinton, McCain and others like them are responsible for landing this country in such a despondent situation.

To the writer that says Obama is going negative...Not the case at all! He is merely asking Hillary about this Foreign Policy experience she claims just as Hillary asked about his lack of. When she traveled abroad it was not to negotiate neither was it to sign treaties or to to handle a crisis at 3:amII If you see Obama as being negative then perhaps you should look up what that word really means. What is important to remember is hope is all some people have. Last point, Barack Obama is still in the LEAD and continues to be in the LEAD.

Go OBAMA!!!!!

So if Obama goes negative, he is a phony? So with that logic, Hillary should be the Queen of Phonies, since she has been all negative throughout the campaign.

It is so funny that here you have Hillary with the most scandals, dirt, lies and cheating and people rejoice when Obama, without any of this, slips up or even points out Hillary's scandals. This country is doomed. Just like how everyone elected Bush (twice for goodness sake), people are making the same mistake and in 2 years people will be saying..."We all knew the history of Clintons and for some reason, we elected her and now we realize it is a mistake"

Way to go America. For 24 years, we have and will be ruled by unqualified presidents. Presidents, who if they were young boys or girls, you will not want dating your sons or daughters.

Who is they he keeps referring to in his speeches. He keeps saying they said this and they said that. Who is they?

Obama is challenging Clinton’s experience, that’s actually funny for a guy who has been in politics for less than one presidential term, less than four years. Obama’s only claim to fame is that he didn’t support Iraq from the beginning. He was a lawyer not a politician in 2003 he could not have voted against the war he wasn’t in politics he has no experience. I don’t see what Barack Hussein Obama has to offer except some Talk!!!!, and so far all I have heard is talk with no plans like Clinton. For real change Hillary Clinton for President.

Clinton 08 We Need Her!!!!!!

What kind of legislation experience does Obama have? Over 150 times vote "present"? He said those votes do not have political influences.... Liar! Chicago poilticians have this joke for years "whenever there is a hard vote, obama will be gone for some days....."

So maybe NOW Senator Obama wants to debate????

Obama is the more intelligent and got there on his own merit and not because he is an ex-presidents spouse. I DO NOT Appreciate the comments that small states don't matter in the race. I live in IL and because of NAFTA we have suffered and that was thanks to a Clinton.
Latinos voted because of the CLINTON name recognition. Proud and educated white female union NURSE age 51 in IL. I WILL NOT VOTE FOR HILLARY in the general election. I will vote for McCain. She has too much dirt on her hands and I'm tired of the mud slinging. The answer is NO to sharing the ticket.

Who's that hotty behind him with the red hair??

I think it is important to examine any claim made by Obama, look at the Canadagate scenario. Man speaks with forked tongue. And Hillary, don't even think of putting this man on your ticket. I will never vote for any ticket with his name on it. Furthermore, I will cast my protest vote in favor of ANY republican ticket.

Democrats could be on their way to committing politial suicide. Hilary can't catch Obama in the pledged delegates. We know that. Are the superdelegates going to 'give' her the nomination? That would kill the party and their chances against McCain in November. Obama's supporters would stay home. Obama as Hillary's VP after the Democratic Party hands her the nomination? No chance.

Now finally Senator Obama likes to talk about experience rather tahn hope and change....He is not qualifed to talk about it since he got NONE..

Hillary – Where's the Chief? I just don't understand where you have been tested?

ABC

Why are all the Obama supporters so negative, I mean constantly- geeees.
I am not talking about Obamaq himself I am talking about his supporters who constantly seem to feel they have to trash the Clintons enough already!!!

Wasn't Clinton ahead in Ohio and Tex by 20 points before they headed there? Why didn't she cream him? I woke up today and Obama was still ahead about 100 delegates. I don't think it is about why can't he close the deal, but how do these huge leads keep slipping through her fingers?

Obama always wins big with a big margin of winning, but when Hillary wins, is always wins with close margin of winning, so that's means she can't close the gap to win the nomination in terms of delegates.

Hillary Clinton has failed to disclose her tax returns. If the U.S. Presidential race should demand and command transparency. What does Hillary Clinton have to hide ?

I saw her interview this morning and she has never done nothing I know of and I was wondering what experience she has other than bill clinton's wife .

FACTS

Hillary Clinton – First Lady from 1992-2000 (no practical leadership experience); elected to the US Senate from NY state in 2000 and re-elected in 2006. Just over 7 years Senate experience.

Barack Obama – Served in the Illinois State Senate from 1997 to 2004 (7 years experience); elected to the US Senate in 2004 (Just over 3 years experience).

Seems to me, as far as elected office goes, Obama has 3 + years on Hillary. Those are the facts.

Well,Clinton won those three states,not because she is ready on day one,but supported by uneducated population.You can find the truth about this election who elected Obama ,the most educated people who does know what is poletics so far elected OBAMA.This is fact, check state population profiles who supported Clinton and Obama.

Hillary lovers are missing the point.

Many elected officals on BOTH sides of the aisle loath her. Right or wrong it is a fact.

So how much do you think is going to get done in Washington DC. Who cares about her experience, it doesn't matter when nobody wants to play with you in the sandbox.

Who cares she lived in the White House? So she knows where all the bathrooms are, remember she FAILED at universal health care the first time around!

I am sick of democrats getting there butt kicked by republicans because they are trying to please the liberals rather than doing what is best for the entire country.

PS
McCain vs. Clinton - McCain WILL WIN.

Obama goes negative (publically). You mean the halo has slipped? He is a mere mortal like us.

He won Texas causus (so far) while Hillary won the popular vote! He sure knows how to work the system – that he claims to be so far above.

Go Hillary!

Clinton won, thanks to the Republicans. Obama ple-as-e don't think about a ticket with Hilliary, that would hurt my heart and I WOULD NOT VOTE FOR THAT!

That phone at 3am in the morning is a chick calling still looking for Bill..I did not have relations with that woman.

Know Please Bring On the Tax Returns....America deserves to know.

As far as the people who point to the win in "the big" states....He may have lost them to a Democrat, but why would that hold true against a Republican? You would have to be a completely clueless to believe ANY democrat (Hillary or Obama) won't take New yORK AND cALIFORNIA AGAINST mCcAIN...tHEY ARE ALMOST A GIMME. and Texas (a pretty big state) will go to Mccain no matter what. The states won in a primary mean nothing...its delegate count that matters. Obama is the clear winner and change maker. We've seen what Dynasties in the Whitehouse have done. Lets end the Bush-Clinton spin cycle for once.
Obama in 08!!!!

Is he kidding? What a poor sport, someone hand him a tissue.
Hillary is the women to lead our country. Obviously Hillary is
fully experienced she has won the BIG STATES!

Clinton people have been so brainwashed in their need to win at all costs. It's sad. All Hillary fans sound just like her and repeat her speeches almost word for word here on these blogs. Doesn't that say brainwashed?! Hillary will not get back in to the White House. Predictions have told me this. Obama will win the Presidency, as he should.

JM is looney ! Hillary was nowhere around ground zero after 911, except for a few photo ops. She never even bothered to visit any of the victim's families months and months after the crisis .

Delegates should make up their minds now Hillary won all the biggest states and industries, if you want a democrats to win for the Nov. elections You have Mrs H. Clinton. Mrs. McCain just waiting her time to attack the Obamas after Mrs.Obama says that NOW SHE LOVES HER COUNTRY and Mrs McCain says I ALWAYS LOVE MY COUNTRY. Of course I understand the Obamas Blood is thicker than water.

The Clintons are murderers, cheaters, have *inappropriate relations*, take money from foreign lobbyists, use foreign politicians (ie. Canada) to do their dirty work, etc. ...

There a reason why George Bush loves Bill Clinton like a son.

Lets do the math? Hillary does not have the delegates to win. Hillary Hukabee Clinton needs to step aside so Obama and McCain can go at it. Wake up Hillary NO YOU Can't.

Steven,
Kentucky

America hasn't forgotten about her hidden tax returns. What's so secretive? If she can't be honest now,we definitely don't want her in the white house.

If you were in the room with Canadians talking NAFTA, go on talking. If you were not then keep your damm coments to yourself. As a Canadian, I dont appriciate dumbells putting thier two cents in and try to get change. Our dollar is worth more for your information and its because of jerks who dont know squat like you and your comments involving Canada in somethig that we stay neutral on. Burn your oun bridges and leave others out, your making a mess around the world without input on memo pads

John, getting to the facts is not being negative. She's being saying this experience thing the whole time and there is no merit to it. Now calling a Christian man a Muslim (especially at times like these) is what you would call negative.

I just don't understand people. You say you want change from the dirty politics of Washington. But as soon as she increases her negative attacks on Obama, she wins 3 states.

The last time I saw a blind faith cult following like this, it did not turn out well. I believe they all drank poison when their leader told them to. For people to say they will vote for McCain if Barack does not win the nomination is foolish. They are willing to keep the republicans in power and drag this country further down into the pits. The cultish type following is a little scary.

Nice try Obama. YOu are part of the senators foreign relations commitee and you have not attended one meeting since you been running your "Yes We Can" campaign.

Obama's diplomatic experience: sending adviser to tour the Canadian Consulate.

Bill has years of experience! Hillary ?? c'mon
How many of you take credit for your spouses work? ......That's what I thought!

EXACTLY RIGHT ! Hillary's lies will come back to bite her backside.
What "experience" does she have, other than "pimping" young interns for Bill in the White House . Let's see some of her experience on the 2006 and 2007 tax returns that she refuses to make public. She's definitely hiding something . She's all talk and no action. She hasn't done squat for NY since she's unpacked her carpetbags from Arkansas .

we will have a national blakout if the superdeloegates do not make the right choice we are the people of the united state and our votes must count if who ever is in the lead at the end of the contest they should be able to run for the persedient America ALL RACE IF THEY TAKE OUR VOTE THERE WILL BE NO MORE DEMORCRATE PARTY

SPREAD THE WORD IF THEY TAKE OUR VOTES WE WILL HAVE A BLACKOUT WITH PRESEDENT ELECTION WE WILL VOTE FOR A INDENPENDENT.

And Jane Maryland,

I took a job right out of High School back in 1980 making $85,000. a year. So Dear Jane, this is America and anything is possible. To Bad you haven't realized that and taken the opportunity to do something in your life!

Hillary's experience over Obama is as a First Lady, and 2 years of Senatorial work. The Presidency is more about making tough descisions under extreme amounts of stress, not policy. If you watch Senator Clinton, during the debates, she easily gets rattled, defensive, and divisive. I for one question her ability to make the tough descision. Senator Obama has proven himself a calm, cool customer, and that is a skill that should be highlighted, not his lack of "experience".

It's time to take the gloves off and ask the tough questions.

Obama’s got to probe her relationship with Norman Hsu and Bill’s financial ties to the emir of Dubai. He has to underscore how Hillary’s so-called experience, particularly in military affairs is largely derivative of her husband’s. He’s got to learn to trade blows with the Clintons, the best counter-punchers in the business. Obama O8

When Hillary talks experience she is really talking about Bill and a 3rd term. She has no experience and McCain is going to point that out. Do we really want a 3rd term of Bill or the two of them fighting over the microphone. If Hillary wins the nomination there won't be any democratic party left to run on for President. Nothing will get done with our problems again.
SOLVE THAT PROBLEM HILLARY

Right on Obama! You can question her claims without being negative. The kitchen sink doesn't need to be thrown at her, but her claims of 35 years of experience along with foreign policy experience needs to be vetted.

Hillary's negative attacks cannot be allowed to control the media!

Obama/Richardson '08

It's good to hit back....YOUR skeletons will eventually surface...that NAFTA shows that Obama speaks from both sides of his mouth, and he CAN'T be trusted for nothing. I have said from the beginning that this guy is "All Form And No Content". No substance, only talk.

Obama ! You should have done this Before
Let the America see what experience she has , You would have taken Texas and Ohio had u Brought this up before
The Biggest Player here – The Media
They made Hillary comeback , thatz the Truth

Obama is not going negative, he is merely pointing out the true facts. What experience does Hillary have? It is all right for Hillary to say negative things and down right attack her opponent. There is hypocrisy in the Clinton camp. The Ohio governor that endorsed her, is also a hypocrite, he did not demand that her taxes be revealed as of other presidential candidates. Transparency ??? she is lacking in professionalism as well as the experience that she claims she has.

Answer all the questions regarding the Resko plot deal Obama. NAFTA-GATE-you were caught in a lie. All Words-repeated at most campaingns. Obama a UNITER? Please provide examples with your Senate experience. When did you cross party lines on difficult issues?

As for Hillary's experience she will list them. Hillary does not need the OLD establishement leader Ted Kennedy for bringing new Change with Obama.

Per usual CNN will censor this message.

Hillary has stooped to an all-time low. We need change.

Several bloggers express dismay that Obama is responding in kind to Hillary's attacks. It is about time! Hillary has gone on about her supposed "experience" for too long without being challenged. I wish Obama would also elevate the topic about the Peter Paul fraud trial coming up in Oct 2008..

This is good for Obama. Since when is being First Lady mena you have "experience"? That's like saying a surgeon's wife can perform surgery just because she happens to be married to a surgeon. I have the utmost respect for both the Clintons, I just think it is ridiculous to suggest that being First Lady gives you experience to be President

Sabrina says Hillary only votes for what's popular. I guess that beat voting "present."

What about Peter Paul and the lawsuit against the Clintons Search on it on the net.

Her tax returns are getting "fixed" just like everything else she has "fixed" to avoid a conviction.

yeah and don't go crying when we keep on asking what qualifies you obama? so far words only words and some of those are plain lies.

obama is a liar liar liar. I want to

GURGALAZX: I'm right with you. I'm a woman and latina.

OBAMA '08!!!!

Obama's problem
Now people know he is not that "new." He is also "old politics as usual."

How is questing Hillary's experience claim going negative? Some of you people are seriously dumb.

Obama just needs to be more effective at countering the negative stuff being thrown at him... there's a plethora of stuff in Clinton's closet... as distasteful as it may be... he's gotta use it.

She's obviously got the advantage to this tactic... it's second nature to her. But he's shown himself to be a quick learner.

You people don't get? Hillary as won this and you people don't see itTheyneed to go after Obama because I don't see him helping people 8years of him and no more Obama then what? who will you put in then?
Wake up people !!!!!!

Why Hillary's supporters are so nervous now???.....you know why......she can handle what is coming back to her....tax returns just to start........

Hillary is playing this Experience game but Obama has been an elected official a lot longer. She is openly deceptive and doesn't care. This isn't American at all.

Obama's nickname should be "The Big Empty."

I think Hillary should give up her Tax Info. when Obama tells us how he came to get a "SWEETHEART" Deal on his home and land with Rezco! Sounds like a "Favor" paid back!

Go HILLARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The whole world is watching, will Clinton steal this election and overturn Democracy? What an example.

ooooo baaaa mmmaaaaa 2008

Has anyone done an exit poll to see how many Republicans voted for Hillary in Ohio and Texas because they think she would be an easier candidate for McCain to beat?

Where are the tax returns Hillary?

Did you notice how Hillary was beating about the bush when asked what is the experience she has be toutingthat qualifies her for the office. Please, would someone be bold enough to make her give a straight answer and also to tell her to quit lying about negotiating opening an border, also when is she going to release her white house record at least we would be able to back up all she has been saying.

CNN, please show the speech Hillary made when she supported the war. It was based on her years of experience.

Her experience is primarily full-time managment of the "Bimbo SWAT Team" for the last 30 years!

Which Hillary is going to answer the phone at 3 am?

Crying Hillary? Crazy Hillary? PMS Hillary? Say Anything Hillary? Stab Your Party in the Back Hillary?

I' thrilled Barack was able to keep the Delegate lead...unfortunately we are about to see the real Hillary come out now. History has shown this woman to be ruthless. The smear is about to slopped on.

Thank you maam for destrying the future of the Democratic party.The future of our party are the young people who will disappear in November if you should win the nomination.The enthusiasm we have witnessed only comes along once in a generation.For you to submarine said enthusiasm will do harm to the party for years to come.You are singlehandedly giving the republicans 20 more years in power.Thanks we appreciate it.

This is exactly what Obama needs to do! This isn't going negative, this is just getting tough. If she is going to say that she is more experienced, Obama says "Fine, so back that claim up!" For someone who claims actions are better than words, she is all talk.

Clinton has been negative for a while. I don't think you can get any more negative than standing on a stage mocking the message your opponent brings. And yet he continues to brush her negativity off.

Question:

Doesn't John McCain's wife look like the Crypt Keeper from Tales from the Crypt ?

Have any of you silly Hillary supporters even looked at the Delegate count ? Obama still has the lead....hello...?

Have you even noticed Hillary has not gotten any new Super Delegates in the last two weeks (actually she lost two) Obama has gotten 39....hello...?

Remember, Hilliary (two weeks ago) was leading in Texas 2 to 1, uhh, we were not supposed to even be close....hello !

America Is Ready
Obama 08

I hate for politics to come down to this(dirty) but I believe if Obama hits hard Hillary has so much to lose, she's got so much dirt than he does and we all know that.

Don't start Obama. Let's not forget, you are essentially a 2nd year Senator with a hx of shady land deals and already caught with your pants down flip-flopping on NAFTA. Fresh of 3 consecutive losses... why don't you just lay low for a while.

OBAMA should keep on his message and continue to fight back when the Clintons attack. One reporter said it well. Clinton would need to win every other state with huge margins to even make a dent in the delegates and she wont. It is a slow agonizing "death of a thousand cuts"!

OBAMA 08

(No Clinton on the ticket)

Obama was an elected public official for a full 5 years before Hillary won her first election. He has 8 years on the state level and 3 on the national level. For a president it is important to understand how state politics work as well. He has 11 years in office to her 6 years in office.

A first lady is not held accountable to voters, has no security clearence and does not negotiate with foriegn leaders. I appreciate Obama raising the question but he needs to explain that he has been in public office LONGER than she has. He has sponsored more bills.

Jay Rockefeller the chairman of the foreign relations committee has endorsed Obama as the better candidate to head our foreign policy. That does not seem to get much press and is a very important endorsement.

mrs clinton did more to giving women a voice in the northern ireland peace process than anyone in ireland which was key in putting the past behind us. as an ulsterman I can say mrs clintons sustained contribution has made it possible for me to raise a family here without the spectre of terrorisim hanging over us and for that i will be eternally grateful to america. i can't speak for her other foreign policy experiences but it is impossible to call into question her contribution to irish soceity

Obama, Shame on you!
You claimed that you opposed the war, did you ever vote against the war?
The vote was to give Bush authorization to go to Iraq if the weapon examination failed, and based on the information that CIA, FBI provided, for the interest of the country, anyone supposes to vote for it, and leaves the judgement to the administration.
You claimed the big one based on nothing....

Yeah Obama... you are truly keeping up your negative talk. Don't you think people can see through your words of hope? Most of the american people want action, not hope, we want a candidate that will take action and deliver, not one who will just offer hope. We all have a lot of hopes, but we want to see the action. Sen. Clinton has worked hard for OTHER PEOPLE her entire life. I see Sen. Obama doing what he can for HIMSELF and his wife. I find it ironic when he states he's better on security when Sen. Clinton is the one will all the flag officers (30) standing behind her and he only has Rockefeller. I for one would NEVER vote for a man without integrity, and he hasn't shown me that yet, not with his words, nor his actions. His wife isn't helping either.

Hillary is unelectable. Heard me? "UNELECTABLE"

Good luck losing in November.

Blah Blah Blah......

you Obama haters need to remember one thing... Hillary can't win without serious help from Rush, Bush, Mccain, and the Press piling on in the last 4 days and that is all good...

But any Democrat will win the so-called big blue states... but can Hillary really win any "red" or "purple" state in November? If so Which ones?

Clinton has zero crises management experience. It is judgment that matters in the White House. Let's examine her judgment:
–She stays married to an man who had affairs
– She supported the war in Iraq

Travelling to countries does not indicate that she has foreign policy experience. That is equivalent to saying a Pakistani taxi driver gave me a ride and now I am an expert on Pakistan affairs.

Barak this IS interesting. You messed up on NAFTA, that is all.

Hillary has been scrutinized for the last 16 years.
You haven't until this week. Welcome to Hillary's world. LOL!

Careful now, you don't get too excited about it though. Thats when mistakes get made. One more, and you're toast for sure!

Huckabee, McCain and Obama have all ran dignified campaigns and this estrogen-fueled emotional typhoon called Hillary has brought the integrity of the races to an all-time low. I don't care who people vote for, just as long as it's not her.

No more Bushes. No more Clintons
No more "Politics As Usual".

It is so great to finally see the Obama campaign challenging Clinton's so called experience! Now it is time for the media to step up to the plate and look in to this so called experience. Also where is the coverage on the Clinton vs Paul case?

So let me get this straight, he can go negative and it's okay. You peoople that support him are like sheep. You criticize hillary for doing this, say he is better, and then support him when he does the same.

Besides, he shouldn't be talking about experience, he doesn't have any.

She is much better because she does not need to prepare as Rezco's defendant witness, and she did not send anybody to tour the Canadian Consulate.

Did I miss something? Did Obama get experience overnight? Oh year he experienced defeat yesterday, once the media exposed him for the fraud that he is Wait till the Republicans get done with him. He will be lucky to keep his Senate seat.

When all is said and done- It will be Obama/08

everyone that's crying dirty politics should just realize that YOU wouldn't be swindled by fear tactics so why should other states.

voters realize that obama is lame!
SNL pegged it perfectly!

GO HILLARY!
to the HILLtop we go!

Austin Loves Hillary March 5th, 2008 12:02 pm ET

YES SHE CAN!!!

YES SHE CAN!!!

YES SHE CAN!!!

YES SHE WILL!!!

Hillary, never give up! You are the one that can pull this country together, roll up your sleeves, and mend our fences.

" Austin "
great job I love your comment on this Love Hillary and want to wish her good luck for all other states that we have to pick up (PA) is ours for sure .....LOVE IT ..

Sandra,

Obama is right. Time to finally question HRC claim of experience. In fact, it is time for him to hit back the way she has been hitting him. At 3:00 a.m. I would much rather have him taking the calls in the WH than her! He is level headed and the best communicator we have seen in generations. Any ticket with her on it is doomed. What nonsense about a dual ticket, with her at the top....please. After 20 years of Bush, Clinton, Clinton, Bush, Bush we certainly are better than another Clinton! She can't get the delegate count, we all know that. Time for her (and Bill) do to the right thing for the party and pack it in.

HILLARY could not handle her personal life. That is why her husband step out on her. Experience? SHOW ME!!!!!
Obama is the best person for the JOB.

OBAMA 08

So with Hillary's reasoning, if your spouse lets say is a medical doctor for 15 years thru your entire marrage, somehow you can share the experience and tout that you have medical "experience" for 15 years also???? Wow, I love the "low key" attempt to ride on your spouses tailcoat.

I find it incredibly alarming that the exit polls show that race was factor in voting for Obama. Let us not confuse great African Americans that have changed this country with a man who is using race to further his personal agenda.

I will vote for McCain if Obama gets the nominamtion. At least McCain isn't wet behind the ears

with democrats like hilary who needs republicans for dirty politics?

Most of his speech is copied from President Bill Clinton. Good judgment should be based on more than just one vote.

Where did Hillary come up with $5million ?? Where is the ethical and standards committee? Something seems scandalous.

NO B.O!

GO HILLARY!
to the HILLtop we go!

So true. WHAT experience is she talking about? She “visited a lot of countries”? Perhaps Arthur Frommer will be her VP pick. She trumpets her role on the Armed Services Committee, then doesn’t show up for its meetings because she is out campaigning! Great job, Hillary. You can’t even run a campaign well – I don’t want you running the country.

It's not about Hope vs Going Negative, it's about KEEPING IT REAL! Obama needs to argue his case, even if it means drawing hard contrasts with Clinton. The facts are there – neither are as strong on experience as several of those now out of the contest, but Obama time and again has shown better judgement , and for me that matters most.

Chealsea will be next prez her experience because last NAME,her expe just scam

It seems to me that hispanics 're voting for loyalty instead their brains; fighting only for their own ethnic interest. It's time to send all this illegal morons back to their country. Enough!!!

I'm routing for Obama- but the most important thing for all Democrats to do is UNITE behind whomever wins the nomination!! We all need to vote for Obama OR Clinton- as long as we can get those da*n republicans OUTTA OFFICE the world will again be a better place!!!

Clinton on the ticket will guarantee another 8 years of Republican rule in Washington.

And you, Obama, 2 years out of the Illinois State Senate... you're ready to handle a crisis??? You're ready to negotiate peace treaties???

You're not ready to mediate anything beyond a Chicago city council meeting. Face it... we need experience in Washington. And you're not fit to lead this nation yet. And all the speeches and all the hope in the world won't change that. Only time will. Prove yourself in the next 8 years and then let's talk.

"Tony R."

I don't know why but this user name supporting Obama made me snicker.

All her experience doesn't amount to a hill of beans considering the Middle East doesn't even recognise women. Obama is the natural for settling things down over there!!
Garrett

THINK ABOUT..

HE SPEND TWICE AS MUCH ON ADS AND HE STILL LOST!!!!

AND HE WAS OUTSPENDING HER 4 TIMES IN SOME STATESAND STILL LOST

HILLARY 08!!!!!

It is exactly the case that Hillary has traveled the world, met their leaders and is known in a very good light and with admitration throughout the whole world. It is the case that she has been in the senate for over 7 years working on global and national security issues. It is the case that she was the Senator from NY when the attack of 9/11 happened. I could go on and on. There is a lot more meat to go on here that Obama's regretfully and clearly very thin resume.

That's right. Getting to claim every success in Bill's term but none of the complete failures is crazy. Between McCain and the Keating issue and her screwing up health care can't we find someone who is not looking for a second chance and give it to someone who has yet to fail completely.

Well I heard that Obama is going to become more aggressive in his campaign. I am glad. If she wants to go negative then I believe he should come on stronger. And he can be stronger without going negative. Just start pulling out the facts on her. The reason hers was negative was because she kept distorting information about him.

actually i think there was too much time before the primaries and hillary needed that time out and it left her enough time to build back up. i hope obama can hold his own. I think hillary will do anything to win including suggesting obama may consider him on her ticket. obama to hit hard and dig out her skeletons

The count is endless on how many democrates have indicated they will vote for McCain before they vote for Hillary..... we are headed for another 4 years of Republican rule if Hillary gets the ticket~

Has Clinton defined every year of her experience? If not, that is something McCain and the 527 organizations are going to rip her apart on come Novemember. Obama has to be clear on his intial policies as well.

Hillary has seven years of significant political experience, in the Senate. Barack has a couple less years in the Senate. However, Hillary has shown, with her vote for the war in Iraq, then flip-flopping on the issue after the war became unpopular among most Americans, she lacks the sound judgment to be an effective president or commander-in-chief. Hillary also failed in her most important initiative as First Lady, when her proposed health care bill was a complete fiasco. She showed poor managerial skills and her failure to present a balanced, sound health care reform bill put back the cause of universal health care for at least fourteen years.

HILLARY IS TOPS IN PA!

She is standing strong for AMERICA!
Let's do it for HER!

Nevermind HER experience. She can handle herself … let's talk about YOU! Ranting and raving about your Iraq speech from 6 years ago doesn't cut it anymore. What else you got?

AND COUPLE OF COPIED SPEECHES,,,,,,,,LOL

Per most recent interview this morning, she admits she has no experience "answering that call". The ad was a slick way of creating doubt then exploiting it. It re-enforces the perception that she will do anything, say anything to win.

Obama keeps sayng he's qualified to be commander-in-chief because he was against the war before it started. So was I. does that qualify me to be commander-in-chief?

This will be news to HRC...You can fool the people some of the time by issuing negative ads and outright lies, but you can't fool all of the people all of the time. Now that we all see how you operated right before an election, we know how you put out negative Ads to discredit your opponent...so you won't get away with it again, we will be watching for your underhanded dirty politic type tricks going forward.
How can anyone even consider you as a Senator?...Let alone as a President of the USA.

I am so disgusted with the media, ESPECIALLY CNN. You have bowed to the negative Clinton campaign tactics that she threw out there 48 hours before the primaries. What a shame!

Well at least she has been to Afghanistan and Iraq working on a national security issue on behalf of US senate. How about Obama, no single hearing, never been to Afghanistan and Iraq. BTW, I see the arrogance of Obama refuse to talk about dream ticket. If he keep that attitude, I believe

hillary supporters won't vote for him ingeneral elaction.

The bottom line is that I, and many other Democrats, will simply not vote for Hillary Clinton. I'd rather vote Republican, particularly with someone like McCain as the Republican candidate. If Hillary gets the nomination, I can't see how she will be elected.

In any case, Obama's ahead and I'm behind him 101%

Obama is a good guy but has very little experience in anything. I think he will go far in life but what has he done to date? His back ground is pretty standard for most lawyers. I like him but not even close enough for him to be president of the united states.

It's about time. These are just claims. She has no experience. Only John McCain does

I too am confused by Clinton's claims of foreign policy experience. It seems that you only get to make those "world crisis" decisions when you are actually President, so how can any of the candidates claim to have that experience? As Obama said, until the "red phone" actually rings it's all about good judgement. Clinton's decisions to authorize the war (without reading the NIE on Iraq), over-embellish her resume, not release her tax returns (and numerous other records) and run a negative campaign should not be ignored when considering this point.

Exit polls indicate the Clinton supporters acknowledge that she has been more negative than Obama. Unforunately, we have an uninformed electrate and the get there news in sound bites and commerical.

I think Obama needs to hit back, but in a factual basis, not in the guttere like the Clintons.

Obama 08....I donated again today!!!

he's going NEGATIVE because he has NOTHING POSITIVE to say about his own experience.

OBAMA... ANSWER THE QUESTIONS AMERICA HAS ABOUT YOU!

The main beneficiary of the slugfest to come is McCain. Nader is looking better and better all the time, as the mud-slinging of this other dynasty appears to be succeeding. What a commentary on a good part of this electorate that they don't really want change – just the same lies that put us in the mess we're in today. If Obama doesn't get the nod, we need a third party!!!

Forget the dream ticket! Obama is so pompously proud of himself & he thinks he will win this!

HILLARY can stand on her own, she can pick someone who can go side by side with her with experience also. NO TRAINEE PLS!!!!

GO HILLARY! Thank God, smart voters are realizing that you are the only qualified candidate to lead us! There is still hope in American people! Vote HILLARY!

I've been waiting for this!!! She said on "Meet The Press" that she wasn't involved in the pardons that Bill was criticized for prioring to leaving office, but voters are to believe that she was apart of all the "right" foreign policy decisions...Gimme a break...Travelling to countries getting political trinkets doesn't constitute experience

Before you head out of the house and vote, HIDE GRANDMA'S CAR KEYS!

Hillary the HOPE of 08 and the smart choice!

Barack, you are the one being held to account now!

Obama '08 Independent...That would put the nail in the Democratic Party coffin.

Oh Happy day..

It is clear that Obama supporters are clueless about government in Washington, DC – plain clueless! Stop rubbing in the Iraq issue, everyone in the Senate voted so was Kennedy and Kerry (Barack's double standard endorsers) – Barack's mantra on the Iraq vote is now sounding like a broken record. Go Hillary!

Barack Obama cannot criticize Hillary about experience, but he does have a point. He can challenge her about her experience in foreign policies. If I remember clearly, Bill Clinton was President, not her. So national security wise, both Hillary and Obama have nothing on John McCain.

Getting back to the point about Barack not winning in important states, it is true that a win is a win, and Hillary has won ALL of the important states, but this will not be what makes her win in the fall. If she is the Nominee and she can't get the multitude of voters that voted for Barack on her side, she will most likely lose to John McCain!

Hillary is by far the more experienced candidate. Her experience as the first lady was a very unique one. I beleive she had a much more influecial role than any of the obama supporters would like to admit. Obama needs to accept the fact that he is not ready. He needs to rejoice in the fact the he is so inspirational. Lastly, he needs to ask for the Vice Presidential candidacy so that he can gain experience and clinch a win 8 years from now when he is ready.

GO CLINTON!!!!!!!

Clinton '08!!!!!

Sadly, those that think like Charlotte (too many in this world) directly think that a black man has to speak of Africa each time he talks. Well, when has Obama refered to Africa Charlotte? If you chose to let your racist mind control your actions we will continue to have people that are inadequate for the job in charge, just to satisfy your color requirement. Let the best person win regardless of their race, creed, religion, or gender...and in this case it is OBAMA '08

Obama, Obama, Obama, why don't you just answer the questions about you instead of saying Hilary Clinton didn't prove herself.

You are a democrate aren't you? You are running aren't you? Answer our questions.

We are tired of hearing I agree with what Hilary said on the issue or Obama what is your experience in foreign policy and you say "what is Hilary's foreign policy.

It would be interesting if you actually could answer an important question instead of saying you agree with someone or that they aren't right about what they are saying.

You may be chrismatic and the great black hope, but you are letting people down if you are just the fluff that you seem to be.

when the workers of Wall-Mart tried to organize a union and get health care, and filed a lawsuit against wall-mart for their refusal to allow a union and health care, did Hillary represent Wall-Mart at that time? How is that fighting for the worker and providing health care to everyone?

What drives me crazy is that she keeps siding with John McCain against a democrat. Did you here her on CNN this morning she said "John McCain and I" several times. Why doesn't she run on McCain's ticket since they are so much alike.

i thinkl that obama has to put up it up a notch to get that knock out for hillary, cause hillary is going all out...go Obama you still have lead to put you over but have to fight fire with fire. hillary isn`t waiting

Time for Obama to stop being Mr.. Nice and hit hard at Clinton. What exactly is this experience she is talking about? What 3am moment of crisis has she handled? Being First Lady does not count as experience. Obama 08!!!!

CNN posed this question to both Hillary and Obama. Hillary gave an answer which referred to her negotiation of the Ireland accord, rwanda... etc etc..

When Obama was asked, all he could say was his judgement on Iraq war...

So definitely Clinton had a better answer... People can watch CNN and decide for themselves.

PLEASE HAVE HILLARY TO REVEAL THOSE TAX RETURNS, HER EXPERIENCE.

What do you mean is going negative, is he twisting the facts the way Hillary has been spinning the facts for weeks? He is simpling stating facts not going negative. Being a wife of a Governor and a President or visiting 80 countries for vacations and shows is not experience. So let us stop this experience issue ones and for all, she as non either as a presidents wife or a Governors wife period. Enough already with this experience issue.

Can someone tell me what political elected offices Hillary has held besides US Senator since 2001?

I know Barack has held politically elected office (Illinois and US Senator) since 1997. In fact, in 2004, Barack delivered the keynote address at the Democratic convention. Since then, he has helped several Democrats win seats in states that many said could never be won by a Democrat.

Experience does matter! Who wants someone (Obama) who promises the universe and only delivers to who donates the most to his campaign. Errrr, did I really say that! Hillary should be the nominee and Barak should be VP. That will never happen!

I always thought Hillary would be an on top person. I don't see her on the bottom. Maybe we should ask Bill if she likes to be on top or bottom.

CNN posed this question to both Hillary and Obama. Hillary gave an answer which referred to her negotiation of the Ireland accord, rwanda... etc etc..

When Obama was asked, all he could say was his judgement on Iraq war...

So definitely Clinton had a better answer... People can decide for themselves.

Why does Obama keep pointing to his oposition on the war? He wasn't even in the Senate to vote. Of course Hillary had to support the war if she was representing the state where the tragedy struck. Plus, Obama keeps saying he is about the future and not the past, so why are we dwelling on the decision made 6 years ago! We're there, what's the plan for hope there now? Let's talk about that Obama.

Hillary '08!

George Bush has almost 8 years of experience in foreign policy now, which is way more than both of these candidates. Yet I don't t hink anyone here could claim he would be better on foreign policy than either candidate.

I think that sums up just how important "experience" is in foreign policy...

Hillary has been absent from her post on the Armed Services Committee as well because she's been too busy campaigning.
What a hypocrite!

Just because she's older, but clearly no wiser – just more calculating and divisive – doesn't make her more experienced. Not one Hillary supporter can ever qualify her experience without including her padded resume with Bill's accomplishments.

Me thinks this isn't a cerebral primary as much as it is a genital and nostagic one. The same demographic that put Bush in office twice is now blindly following another filthy and corrupt dynastic model who in reality is monied and corporate connected white trash with power.

My belief is Obama has been too gentle thus far in this race. Such a trait can hardly provide him with consistent returns in a World [political arena] known to be litigious in nature. Case in point: exit polls in Texas and Ohio. Voters got significantly influenced by of late Clinton shoutings. This is actually unfair (impacting by shouting) by any stretch of human memory, yet this is conventional politics. My take from last night Texas and Ohio results is Obama needs to adopt some kind of ECLECTIC POLITICS that integrates conventional wisdom without harming his core message of a dependable hope.

Its sad how she won, and to think; she calls them victory with a smile. Personaly I to would like to know exactly what she has done besides travel. I traveled many places overseas during my time in the military, Hell, I probably have more foriegn experience than her. PLEASE HAVE HILLARY GIVE DETAILS OF HER ACCOMPLISHMENTS. WE THE PEOPLE WANT TO KNOW. WE THE PEOPLE WANT TO KNOW WHY SHOULD WE ALLOW HER TO ANSWER THE PHONE. PLEASE TELL US.

Obama show his true face during last few days...

I am somewhat confused at this experience thing that Hillary is claiming. For those who do not know, it has been "experience" that has gotten us into the battles we now face – recession, war, lack of respect around the world, lagging foreign policy. Maybe a lack of Washington experience can get us out! If being First Lady is all you need to be President, I nominate Nancy Reagan.

I don't get it. Why is Clinton/Obama considered a "dream ticket"? With about 41% of the people in this country calling themselves Democrats, 39% calling themselves Republicans, and about 20% Independents, and Independents frequently voting Republican, how can you call Obama and Clinton a dream ticket? I think the demcrats are getting just a tad ahead of themselves this election. You've got a long way to go.

TO HILLARY:

Obama is too good for you and should never run on your ticket.
he would be like Powell so disgusted he would want out; from
under the lying, cheating, unfairness.

DO you really think that you could ever compare or measure
up to his personality. What differences.

Good question!
I also believe that Hillary's 8-years as first lady, which invariably forms part of her "so called" experience credential should be scrutinized.
Moreover, she should make public her tax returns. Finally, during CNN Ballot Bowl – the CNN anchors, for instance, Bash and Marveux, don't show the events equally – I mean, for instance, they will show Hillary, at one time, Husband Clinton...another, and Child...Chelsea also another – meanwhile "all of these represent one candidate (Hillary) without showing Obama. I think this is not good enough.
Thanks

Experience!!! Just because my husband played college/professional football and I attended ALL is games doesn't make me ready to suit up. Heck! I would get creamed!!!

Hillary may have experience but it is experience as the First Lady and Obama already has someone (much more professional and with a pleasant demeanor) to fill that position.

Please, please. No "dream" ticket either. That would be a nightmare for this Republican that wants OBAMA in the Whitehouse!!!!

How can Obama be the candidate of "Hope" and "Change" when it seems like he has resorted to the same political tactics of Hillary.

I thought he was "above" that.

Welcome to reality Obamabots. Your Camelot is burning.

Like I have said before, the Emperor has no clothes.

Yes Obama we need to examine her- Go to Hillary Clinton's website and find out!!!!!!!! We sure do'nt need you to vote present on everything and be pressing the wrong button as bombs are going off. It,s about time the media started asking questions instead of fawning all over you! SNL was so right,even tho it was funny but true, lets see what you do if you get half of the bad press Hillary has received, this one tough LADY!GO HILLARY,we love you

He's right. Obama has to challenge her. What would Clinton supporters expect out of their girl? She's responded, now it's his turn.

As for the dream ticket, I'm all for it. It may be the only way to align these negative sides from both camps. Otherwise, the other half doesn't show up in November. We can't afford another Republican road to ruin.

All of you better think about that.

Memo to Mrs. Clinton, her campaign team...Bill Clinton, Howard Wolfson, Mark Penn, Terry McAuliffe and her supporters....

If you think Mrs. Clinton can win this nomination using the Clinton SLEEZE machine of fear tactics, Islamophobia, RACE baiting, questioning Obama's *Christian* credentials....you're dead wrong.

If you think for one minute African Americans and progressives will forget such tactics should Mrs. Clinton steal the nomination, then John McCain is the next prez!!!

Mrs. Clinton.....John W. McCain's best recruiting tool!

Did it every occur to anyone that in those state that hillary won barack obama was way down and came all the way up, and anyway its the a democratic candidate against a democratic candidate who say barack obama couldn't win the big state in general election if it were democrats against republicans and those democrats that voted for hillary voted barack because she didn't win the state she won the democratic vote.

What does Donna Brazile think of this strategy? Of course everything Obama does is above reproach to her.

Be gentle with Donna today CNN. She had a rough night. Her candidate was unable, once again, to close the deal.

Sorry, I forgot Donna has been neutral for weeks now. Ha!

Talking of dirty politics.... wasn't she forced to resign because of her sleazy/obnoxious comments in the Bush election. Ha!

WE LOVVE YOU OBAMA...
Fight back time....HRC is a fraud

Sen. Obama-this is what you and your campaign officials should be doing anything Hillary goes negative. Hillary has a lot of negativity, if you guys don't see it, then research on hillary's political career-letting her get away with smear tactics and fear mongering.

For the dream ticket if you accepts the dream ticket i will vote McCain and ask for my campaign contribution back.... KEEP UP THE FIGHT..thank you.

Souinds like someone is itching to go negative. Careful Barack, people might start to think you are a politician. Where will that leave hope? Next thing you know you'll have to start answering questions about Canada/NAFTA and Resko. You may not be a long-time Washington insider, but it's beginning to look that you've done your training in the sewers of Chicago politics instead. People who throw stones...

Glad to see she got a big part of her demographic back. The dried up old spinster vote (Hi Charlotte).

I'm sorry, but all you people talking about he's being negative are full of it. Being negative would be him throwing down all the skeletons she has in her closet, but yet knowing very well she would be doomed if he did that, HE HAS NOT DONE IT.

I guess he's suppose to stand there and take punches and yet he responds with a neutral and fair argument. Not scaring people talking about "It's 3am and the phone rings" bull. If you're gong to attack, attack on the issues, not on scaring people. AND TO TOP IT OFF, SHE GIVES MCCAIN MORE AMO AGAINST HERSELF! HOW IDIOTIC IS THAT!!!!!

OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT '08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Keep up the good work OBAMA she will DESTROY HERSELF She has to PLAY DIRTY IN her MIND TO WIN. THE AMERICA WILL NOT STAND FOR THIS. HILLARY THE WORLD IS WATCH.

Even if Obama loses all the big blue states since they are big and blue who says they will go red in november? Do you see California voting for McCain if Obama is the nominee? Obama has more victories and more delegates democrats will have no problem backing him however the independents, republican converts, and even libertarian converts that I've met going for Obama will have a hard time voting for Clinton over McCain. That's definitely something to consider (especially if you're a super delegate).

I don't understand these comments. I'm going to admit I'm an obama supporter. But all these hilary supporters are complaining about him in the beginning comments about him going negative? Shes been attacking him every step of the way and he publically says he won't attack back, when he actual does once everyone is on him?

This really wasn't an attack anyway. If I asked you for proof that you're rich, is that attacking you? Same thing here, just replace rich with experience.

It is amazing how Senator Clinton continues to site her 35 years of experience. When you look at her record and her age in conjunction with the (2) Presidential terms of her husband and the term of Governor that her husband served in Arkansas; she is citing his experience as her own. She has had 8 years to produce a working model of universal healthcare under President Clinton's administration and she hasnt developed a working model in her own state of New York, yet she knows what the people need????? Hillary Clinton will say and do anything to become President of the United States of America. She is not President and what qualifies her on day one anymore than any other member of the Senate who has been there longer than her?????? When she loses she pounts. When she wins she is hypocrytical. She did not achieve victory on yesterday. She did not win by the margins that she needed and she didint make up any ground. Therefore how are these great victories. They are washes, toss ups.

I do not understand why all these small states that Obama has won are given a chance to participate in this election process. Do they not realize that they are not important. As far as Clinton is concerned only the big states are important. She will fight right to the end because she is concerned only about herself and nothing else, the Democratic party is only a tool for her ambitions. I am totally amazed that some bought in into the weekend 3 a.m. add. Her experience and judgment varies from day to day depending on what the polls are her judgment would be worse than Bush, if that is possible. Roger

She trumps his Federal experience, in many areas with her own Federal experience. She trumps him with National Security and Crisis issues with her own since 9/11.

She can actually discuss 9/11 and her vote if he goes after her executive experience.

An Executive makes tough decisions. She did by authorizing the inspectors and he took the pacifist dove view.

He can attempt to say he's been supporting the troops once he got elected to the Senate and that will only make her stronger and reiterate he was wrong.

The reason he can't go hard at her is not just because he's this change candidate, but because every attempt to hit at her only strengthens her case.

The same for Rezko vs. Her Income Taxes.

He knows this and that's why the "experience" is as rough as he can get.

Have any of you seen the photo of Senator Obama that was used as attack ads in Texas by Hillary Clinton? He's at least 2×3 times darker than he appears in public or on any of the ads he has run. Here she is again, swift boating Senator Obama without saying he is Black... Hillary will do anything to win, and she used it to change the minds of some Texans to vote for her. If she was the nominee for the Democratic party I just would not vote. Not interested in a co-presidency, and same old, same old.

Obama's taking in water. The ship's going down.

Are you getting enough media coverage now Hillary!! So funny how she stops whinning on good days, but when it rains it pours (and she has to let everyone know)! Obama '08

Thank U Lord! Finally, Obama is hitting back – can't wait for this experience tally she claims to have. The Obama camp has been too silent on Clinton's so called experience. Experience as what – in what?

Also, don't forget that part of her experience is being duped by a dope (in believing George W. Bush's rationale for war). If this woman is so easily duped by a dope like Bush she clearly doesn't have the intelligence to be President.

WOW! Clinton and Obama...has my vote all the way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Westchester, NY

It's been five days now and he still hasn't answered about NAFTA or Rezko. For a guy who usally hits right back with no hesitation, why is it taking so long? I think he's just hoping we'll forget about it. If he thinks this is negative, imagine what would happen if the Republicans get a hold of him??

We need to know exactly want experience she is talking about. That is what I have always wanted to know.

Being the wife of a president does not make Hillary Clinton any more prepared to be president than being the son of a president prepared George W. Bush. Senator Obama is right – let's start examining these claims of Clinton's about all of her "experience".

Obama is absolutely right on this point. I saw Hillary's interview with CNN this morning and when she was asked about what exact experience she is referring to in her ads and speeches, she had NO ANSWER! That's right- NO ANSWER!

She ran down the list of countries she's visited, and world leaders she has met, but then when asked again about what experience she has with handling a crisis- SHE HAD NO ANSWER! Just because you're married to an ex-President doesn't make you qualified to be one.

According to Hill-a-math, i've got 26 years (27 if you count the 9 months in the womb) of experience of being a leader bc my sister was born 15 months after me.

OBAMA has NO EXPERIENCE except going AGAINST his country in that speech he talks about ALL THE TIME...all his experience is WORDS
HILLARY has a lot more especially at attacks and baby that is what Obama will get from the republicans if he goes against McCain and attacks from TERRORIST if he becomes president
HILLARY
HILLARY
HILLARY is the ONLY way!!!!!!!

This may be the only option. Both candidates have die hard supporters, and will defect in the General election if the other is not on the ticket. But with that said, it would be ludicrous to think Hillary can be the President. She's behind in pledged delegates, in popular votes, and in states. So what's her argument?? Please someone clarify this.

Also, Tom Brokaw stated that 50 superdelegates will be endorsing Obama soon. They are planning how to roll each endorsement out. Is this true? If it is, that will nullify Clinton's superdelegate lead, and widen Obama's overall delegate lead. So how then can Clinton justify being the President? Once again, I don't get it.

I'm just curous as to why all you people are interested in Hillarys Tax return...I'm looking at mine now and all you can see is my earnings and deductions....Whats all the hype about!!....awwwww betca never filed one yourself and wondering what the look like...yup dats it!

Hey Schultz – Pittsburgh, and all of Pennsylvania is Hillary country (just like Ohio was). There is no doubt Hillary is going to win in PA, it's just a matter of how big the margin of victory will be. Tell Obama to take his whiny speeches somewhere else. If he wants to realize his destiny, he needs to accept his role as VP under Hillary, or get trampled. Just like Rocky Balboa, Hillary keeps on coming. She's a fighter, he's a good talker. Game, set, match, right here in the Keystone state.

The only experience Clinton has is curled up in the fetal position in a corner sucking her thumb, crying her eyes out begging Bill to fix her problems. Clinton cannot handle the pressure. If she is so experienced at managing then why is her campaign "now beginning to get warmed up"? Shouldn't she have done that last year. It's like saying 3/4 of the way through a marathon "now I can finally stretch and get warmed up".

Obama got hit hard last night but it isn't over. I am gearing up to help him in Indiana.

Obama 08

Mr. Bojangles flim-flam man Obama.

Hillary 2008

Hillary may have been in New York during 911 but signed on to go to war with the wrong country. How in the hell is that ok!!!!! Thanks to Bill people in Ohio don't have a job. You all are so thankful that you voted for his wife. Must feel good to struggle and be broke while the bank continue to take your homes. Hillary can lie, cheat, manipulate, whine, and play the victim. She will take her bipolar condition to the White House and the US will be toast. Hell NO HIllary Must Go!!!!!!!!!!! and stay Gone.

You got the nerve to say "Obama is going negative"??!!! Where have you been????? He is not going negative. he is clearly stating the facts......He doesn't need to lower himself to someone else's level but....I do agree that he needs to be more agressive if he is going to stay in this "war".......

My suggestion: DUAL TICKET.....this is bigger than either one of them...it has come down to this.....Do we want to run the WH or do we want the Reps to stay in it???? We've got to come to some common ground here and work together....it looks bad airing your dirty laundry while the Reps sit back and grin because they know as long as we keep this up.....they got it all sewn up......

Does anyone think that Rush Limbaugh telling Republicans to vote for Clinton had any impact on last nights primaries

What clinton did is like fighting for toy. If I cannot get the toy, then,make the toy brocken and no one can get it.

Shannon is right... people need to wake up and look for themselves and not just believe what the TV commercials tell you. DO THE RESEARCH!

Clinton is a fraud and is part of the establishment. if you want another 8 years like the last 7 years, vote for Hillary... if you want America to be a great, respected nation again, vote Obama.

This is a sad day. Obama is a good man and it's sad he can't just run on his qualifications and policy views. He has to resort to these tactics because it's what the electorate responds to. We are in worse shape in this country than I thought. We need Obama to win!

" How can she take the resposiblity of a white house when she can't even take responsibilty and control of her own husband.

What a sexist remark the above is...who controls a spouse? Vote on issues, not personality! Should we be saying, "Oh Obama control your wife, who for the first time in her adult life is proud of this country." Give me a break...!

Relese tax returns

I don't understand how Senater Clinton thinks she has more experience than Senater Obama. The only office she has held is moving to New York and taking the easy run to Senater. Besides experience has not paid off in the past when you view the senate record and the presidential canidates. Hillary has a lot of baggage that hasn't been used aganist her and she hasn't release her White House records yet. I think it's time for Obama to unveil some of her unpleasant past with people she called her friends. If she goes on she will split the party and give McCain a free ride.

Thanks,
Steven
Kentucky

why don't you start to answer the questions America has about YOU!

HILLtop's in Pennsylvania!
We're ready to vote for Hillary 08!

Yes, Sabrina, but at least she votes.
Why did Obama not vote on the Iran issue?? He was in the Senate but didn't vote...that seems odd....

He keeps tauting how he would not have voted for the resolution if he were in the Senate, but when he was in the Senate to vote, he wasn't there....seems odd....

He is so underqualified. He doesn't even know when his people go to Canada to make statements contrary to his. We have such problems and we do not need someone who doesn't even know where the bathroom in the White House is right now!

Go Hillary!!!

Barack Obama should define his own experience and readiness to

be the president instead of trying to deflect the question unto the

future President Hillary Clinton.

Most Americans know who Clinton is and what she will bring to the

Presidency.

Therefore, she will win the White House , she will be

ready on day one and she will not have to explain her experience

because it is already defined.

And Obama's experince is what?

The only truly expericed canidate still standing is McCain. Followed by Clinton's savy in the workings of Washington and foreign policy, followed by Senator Obama, I did not vote for war in Iraq, but then again he was not is a position to have to decide how to vote. Yes, he did speak out against the war from the start, but his voice did not matter, nor did his deceision carry any consequences other than he spoke out against leaving the Presidents option to use troops in Iraqi open.

So how many treaties and crises have Obama handled, for some reason I don't think he has any under his belt.

Thank you – it's about time people started to question exactly what Hillary's "experience" is!

-Ask her how a experience as a corporate lawyer qualifies her for the presidency.
-Ask her why her most significant policy effort (health care) as First Lady was a disaster? And why she thinks that qualifies her for President.
-Ask her to release her Whitehouse papers if she wants to take credit the rest of Bill's presidency.

Exactly.... She claims 30 years of experience... Certianly not direct experience.... The fact she was in the White House while her husband was the President does not give her DIRECT experience or prove that she would be better at making decisions than Obama!!! SHE HAS NOT PROVED THIS!!!

Having the SMARTS, using GOOD JUDGEMENT and BEING ABLE TO INSPIRE people is what will make a successful Commander and Chief!!!!! And Obama you have them ALL!

Also, doesn't BEING UPFRONT matter in a President????? Where are your TAX RETURNS Hillary????? What are you manipulating behind closed doors???

Ha! so now Obama wants to play on Hillary's playing field- bring it on! a strategic mistake- what is his campaign manager thinking?

this is treacherous ground for him since by bringing up her experience he reminds the listener of his own lack of the same. And whatever she says on this topic- in response now that he's publically entered this debate- will only hurt him-

in effect he is trying to imply that she is as inexperienced as he is , which is a very strange position to take

Finally! Let her prove it to us, and I hope she has a better answer than the 80 countries she visited and her tenure in Washington.

I was wondering when someone was going to ask this question and frankly I am surprised the Obama camp didn't until now. She was not in an elected role during the Clinton years and I believe has only a single term longer as a Senator than Obama(?). I think Obama should also suggest people start looking and/or remembering the scandal after scandal in the Washington during the Clinton era which she seemed to be a part of.

This guy will be a joke in American History!

let's see how many dirty tricks played by him will be exposed in the future!

Hillary Go GO GO2008!

I hope she learned something about the presidency while her husband was the president of the United States while Obama was a state senator. He just arrived in Washington. I can see how well you will negotiate with other world leader by looking at enough debates. Obama, you are awful at spontaneous responses. You are good in prepared speeches but sitting with someone just smart as you are in negotiating our security interest, forget it. You are not good enough.

HELLLO
Is anyone out there? Does being married to a former president gives you the experience you need to lead the country? Earth, calling Hillary . Come in Hillary!!

Now, now, now, i'm sure you really don't want to go there Barack.
Stick with the judgement thing, please

I managed to convert a number of Obama supporters in the Texas caucus because I posed certain questions:

Knowing the issues with Obama on his double-dealing with Canada and Ohio and his 6 oops votes for republican measures that cost $2 million in lost child welfare in Chicago, would you vote for him if he was white?

The only change Obama makes is his mind on issues and what he promises. The news reporters moderating the debates have caught him changing his stance every time. However the hypnotism of his supporters lingers on. If you sit an Obama supporter down and ask what he really stands for and then show them what he has really said, they begin to see the real Obama.

Obama stated in a youtube video he will cut the military in half and disarm all nukes in the US. The terrorist are stronger than ever and we want to stand down from defense?

Hillary is the real choice not the Obama parrot.

I'm glad he's finally bringing her expercience in to question! Really what has she done? I dont remember here being apart of any peace treaties...

Is there a reason that only 36% of the Texas Caucus results are anywhere to be found? Wondering just what the delegate difference is and how that might play in double ticket.

It's true, Obama supporters are the NASTIEST bunch on the Web! Get over yourselves and start acting like HUMAN BEINGS!

No one likes a sore loser Sen Obama. It's not experience that made people decide to vote for Sen Clinton it was the Canadian memo about NAFTA . Obama seemed to have his hand caught in the cookie jar and looked untrustworthy. The media has also been pressing him on Tony Rezko all within days before the primary.

Bite us John. Obama going negative would be ringing up the over 20 girlfriends of Bill's, whatewater, travelgate and the pardons, the misssing furniture from the whitehouse, RENTING out the lincoln bedrrom for PERSONALO gain,,,,shall I go on? I thought not. GO OBAMA 08

GWB also campaigned as a Washington outsider. I'm suprised that Clinton hasnt consistently used this similarity between Obama and Bush. I think that it could be effective.

They are not Governer Patrick's words, they are not Senator Obama's words, they are Matt Santos the Democratic candidate from the tv Show "The West Wing". Wow, I guess those words don't mean anything!

I agree with Barak. How is the press questioning his experience and what exactly is hers?!! He's had more years of legislative experience than she. So she was first lady? Why doesn't the press ask her to release her White House papers from the Clinton library so we can see what exactly her experience was. Now that she's won Ohio and Texas, where is the release of her tax returns? Why isn't anyone questioning her to release them today since she's won. If she filed them, then release them. There's a whole lot of things the press is not asking. Again, what is her experience. She doesn't have more legislative experience than him so what is it then??

If you can't take the heat get out of the kitchen,
Women know the kitchen like the back of their hand.
Go Hillary!

Obama's going to start "CHANGING" the way he runs his campaign now, he needs to start going negative to win... Nice change Obama, good thing it looks like my vote will be counted now in Oregon!

Obama "had" my vote until last nights speech when we never looked forward once and was rapidly moving his head side to side reading the prompters, it was also a very weak speech. He cant win without Hillary and Hillary cant win without Obama... Hillary /Obama Ticket looks the best!

Ok, Barack, what have you done in other countries besides Africa that hasn't directly benefitted you or your church?? According to your church doctrines, your first allegience is to Africa and the US comes second. If Africa comes first for you, how can you ever justify your ability to be president of the US?? Again, what have you done in other countries? What are your accomplishments in other countries?? NONE!

Hillary has had a direct hand in negotiations, improving relationships, supporting human rights, and a host of other activities in other countries that have had a positive impact on the US. She may have "only" been First Lady, but her experience with other countries DOES count as experience whether you think it does or not.

Thank you... that's the question I've been asking for the last week. As a matter of fact, when is Hillary going to release her tax returns and records as First Lady? I'd be interested in the story those tell.

Dead on Senator Obama. Stop being nice and start asking her the tough questions.
Her wins last night were the re-invention of a canidate by the press because she started to whine.
She has little if any experience and what she does have is far less than Senator Obama.

CNN start doing YOUR work!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Obama says it all. Unfortunately Hillary tends to consider herself and ex-President Clinton as one and adopts his achivements as her own.
She gives the impression that when she answers the red phone, Bill will be whispering in her ear of what to do next. Who knows, maybe he'll answer it, not want to wake her, and then tell the caller what he thinks Hillary would do. Next morning, "oh, by the way Hill, you got a call last night and this is what you said........". Time for a REAL change.

In regards to Florida and Michigan the delagates should not be sat at the converntion. Next election the states should decide what is more important, voting first or having your states vote actually count. There is no need to set rules if they are not followed through. What kind of standard would that set for the next election, everyone would change their primary date.

Obama Campaign! Why did you wait so long to argue this point. It is more than valid and still above the fray. Let's hope it gets the traction it deserves.

Why isn’t anyone talking about Hillary’s earmarks. Read this article and find out how most of her earmarks have benefitted contractors and allowed them to go around the bidding process. Read how she has benefitted in kind to the earmarks she has given to various corporations and how many have donated to her campaign. And the real reason Pastor Butts is supporting Sen. Clinton. This is the kind of stuff Barack Obama needs to start using and bringing to light. It’s time to get UGLY and to show America the reality of what a Hillary run whitehouse could look like.

Democrats who made up their mind in the last three days went to Clinton in both TX and OH. That's VERY bad news for Obama. It means that people that have not become intoxicated by his rhetoric and have actually looked long and hard at the candidates aren't supporting him.

It spells trouble down the road for Obama.

He is NOT qualified to be Commander in Chief.

How many times are you going to be counted out.... and come back! You go Hillary!

I am independent and will never vote for Hillary/Obama or Obama/Hillary ticket. If Obama wins democratic nomination I will vote for him otherwise it is republican.

State of Washington – my vote was for Obama. If I could turn back time and re-vote, it would definately be for Clinton. The reason I have changed my oppion have to do with the recent media coverage on him. I was dissapointed that he voted only present on a majority of items that were presented. Prior to the past two weeks, I really thought he was the best for the President but I am now much more of the story. Clinton really is the best experienced and the most likely to get things done.

Will Obama be satisfied being the sub-vice president ? With Bill being the 2nd in command as unoffical but acting Vice President !

As a PA voter, I would like to see the recorders of the Clinton's years in office BEFORE I vote. When asked at the last debate, Mrs. Clinton said she would release them as soon as possible. Those records should support, or not support, that her years as first lady are foreign policy experience. When asked this morning on CNN about what experiences she had that would make her better qualified to answer the 3 a.m. call, she sited her experience as first lady. I want to see the records of those years BEFORE I VOTE IN PA! She claims that the White House is slowing down the proces but Bush said that they have been released to Clinton. Where are they?!?!?

Hillary CLinton is a paper tiger. She has no real experience except for her brief time in office as a US Senator. Hillary has never run a company, hell she failed the DC bar and that wa why she went to Arkansas initially.

Since neither one of them will be able to win enough delegates with out Michigan and Florida… Everyone should start to look at a joint ticket with both candidates!!!

Happening Right Now !

Think about how scary this is!

1) Dmitry Medvedev wins Russian presidential vote by a landslide with an election that was a scam. Total chaos in Russia right now..

2)Troops from Ecuador and Venezuela have been ordered toward their borders with Colombia amid a tense crisis that threatens to erupt into war

3) Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad wants us out of Iraq,says the whole middle east hates us and wants us out right now..

AND WE HAVE BARACK OBAMA WITHOUT ANY EXPERIENCE AS COMMANDER IN CHIEF IN THE WHITE HOUSE!!!

Senator Clinton cites her experience on the Armed Services Committee as her credentials for being Commander In Chief. Taking it a step further, the Armed Services Committee had oversight during Abu Gharib, Insufficient protection of Hummvees, the Walter Reed Wounded Warrior Scandal – where was she then?

Obama has lots of experience, a TRUE politician and attorney, you Obama voters should be proud of his deceit...MR. Change??? Mr. Hypocrite is more fitting...

Anyone but Obama "08"

Hillary complains that the media has been unfair, but they have let her repeat her claim of experience without challenging it. It's about time someone did.

If democrats think Hillary can compete against McCain with experience, they are in for a rude awakening. Obama has been respectful, but count on McCain to virtually laugh in the face of Hillary's experience claim, watch the RNC dredge up ALL the past Clinton scandals, and watch your dream of a democrat in the Whitehouse go down the tubes.

Hillary's HUSBAND has been vetted, not her.

Here we go...the real campaign is about to begin. May the best candidate win.

Is he sooo inexperienced that he is asking this question???? This guy will get creamed when Hillary answers him with her long resume. Oh and by the way, you should try to show what your experience is and onw speech in 2002 does not count!

Through 80 countrys with her husband she has seen firsthand what needs to be done and with the experience she has gained as senator makes her a very viable commander and chief to handle the load that must be dealt with.While you were on the streets doing drugs back in the day what was she doing Mr Obama.Well I guess that say it all. Her background blows you away 10 times over.And I will not vote for anyone that does not agree to war when we are attacked in defense of our great country to defend us. Thats why you are a Hussien and shes a Clinton

Even if Hillary only has a miniscule of experience, she still has more than Barack. My god, handing over the reins to Obama would be like putting my finances in the hands of my 5 year old. At least Hillary would be my 18 year old. Not completly mature, but ready to go out on her own.

Contrast:

Barack Obama leads to build the Democratic Party.

The Clintons fight to win by any means necessary, even if it means embracing and endorsing McCain.

The Clintons are magnets for controversy, scandal, and negativity. Let's focus on the issues. Along with the economy, war and other concerns, let's take Bill out of the equation and focus on Hillary's experience, integrity (involvement with scandal), real estate deals, promises to disclose tax records, etc. I decided to vote for Obama because he HAS dedicated his life to public service and served well. Most importantly, his credentials are not bloodied and stained as Clinton's have been by her infamous bouts with scandal.

Why do any of you care about Clinton's tax returns???

I know that I am still waiting on mine to come back and mine are not nearly as complex as hers or big business… My understanding from my father is that he will not see his return for several months because of his business dealings… I really don't ask or want to know what he or other people got back!!!

It sounds to me like everyone here is really searching for reasons to discount Clinton's victory or a reason not to like one of the candidates… I think everyone needs to start looking forward and focus on the issues… I also think that all of this is the media's fault because they need to sell newspapers!!!

Superdelegates were not created to support the choice of others, but to vote for the candidate of their choice. There was and is no obligation for superdelegates to vote for the candidate who recieved the most votes or who has the most pledged delegates.
But Obama reverting to politics of old, the kind of politics he says he wants to change is trying to impose new rules in the middle of the game because it benefits him.

I totally agree with you there Obama...
No disrespect to Hillary, but her campaign has been a very shameful one... I hope America will be fair while judging both of them, because it's clear that one of them is running a positive campaign and the other is not.

Mark

Obama is heading for DoomVille.....

Yeah, Barack, you might want to get a little more specific there. The honeymoon with the media is over.

Also,

You can't argue you are better qualified to be the Democratic nominee because you have more experience, and then say Jon McCain wouldn't be a better President even though he has more experience.

And: The voters of Ohio cast their ballots in large part due to job loss from NAFTA. Why would you choose to elect the one person whose husband implemented NAFTA, and you championed it? Is this why she didn't release her tax returns before Mar 4th? Becuause it will show that her and her husbands investments are in foreign companies that have benefited from NAFTA. Did they make a ton of money off of Americans losing their jobs? Makes ya wonder!!

i think obama is right is she saying she tested because she is the former presidents wife because i dont think so, and also the media wants this thing going on so much so that they can get more ratings, but the democratic party should be smart enough to no that, because this is what happened to Algore, think people will be smart to no that hillary will not win the president nomination in nov, it will go back to republicans, i think bush was right when he said the republicans are going to win again, this is not about superdelegates being loyal to the clintons thats not fair for obama, they all need to go behind the person with the most pledged delegates and get on with election i think at the end its all going to be who do you know and clinton is known by the superdelegates she will get it

I know everyone says the Media has given Barack Obama a free ride, but what about Hillary Clinton's free ride? Granted, they speak more pleasantly about Obama but that is because he is a more pleasant human being and no one can deny that. When will the media start bringing up the baggage Hillary has? Not just Bill's baggage but Hillary's? I think we need a refresher course on what she would bring to the White House. Americans seem to have short memories when it comes to the Clintons.

I was wondering about the same thing...hope Obama learns from this. Now that we have more than a month till Pennsylvania, there is ample time for those tax returns and white house papers to come out. That coupled with challenging the exact details about Clinton's experience would do him good. Otherwise the Mr Nice guy wont take him far.

What kind of experience did Bill Clinton have when he was elected? Bush? Regan? Carter? Nixon? Kenendy? None of them had any presidential experience. And neither does Hillary Clinton.

We have been looking at the most hilarious, crazy, unrealistic adds and from the Clintons. Is she running Independant or Democrat? maybe she is running as a Clinton for the Clintons and not really for America. She speaks about her Foreign Policy experience but she has none excpet traveling to many countries by comparaison, Sen Obama did more on Foreign policy as a first tiome senator than Sen. Hillary did why First lady and 2nd term Senator. So what is really her experience in Foreign policy, oh yes she has one: Voted for a War in Iraq. HILLARIOUS

zak

Well, she hold a speech in China. I think this is the sort of "experience" Mrs. Clinton is talking about. Or she means that her husband has much experience for this job, consequently she will follow his advices...

Good start. But will the media dissect her "experience" and "tested" claims. What experience? Against who? How did she do? and who tested her? In what roles in politics? On what? and how did she do?

Does Bill cheating on her from Governership to WH constitute as part of her "experience" and "test"?

Tim Russert recently asked Hillary Clinton if she was going to release her tax return. She was evasive at best and then finally stated that she would after yestereday's primary. As a responsible news organization CNN needs to pursue this topic with the same aggressiveness shown in questioning Barak Obama about the NAFTA treaty.

There have been 4 main candidates over the last month. With the exception of 1, all have run campaigns they should be proud of. I'm very surprised the American people seem to be falling for the fear mongering the Clintons have put out. It seems that is the only way she is able to claim any victory is to attack. Goes back to integrity. Maybe Ohio didn't see through, but hopefully the rest of the states still to vote will have a better view. Obama is correct, her record is not that great for actual time spent in office. Not much different than his really. So ecause you got to dress when your husband was president and attend fancy dinners makes you more qualified....I don't think so.

Hey Mr. Obama, at least she has been to at least 80 countries.

In addition, someone with her intelligence will have learned a great deal from her husband. When he left office, US reputation internationally was very positive. He believed in diplomacy and I am sure that Hillary will also use diplomacy. But don't be fooled, she will also be tough and stand her ground.

Obama has NO track record, nor has he ever been as close to anyone to gain that kind of experience. While words can inspire, they are no substitute for leadership and experience, both of which he lacks.

If I hear "Day one" one more time I will puke!

The reall come back kid will be Ralph Nader..This movement will bite back in November...DNC needs to really think hard and stop this madness soon. This women can not win...steal maybe!!

Think about this.

Experience is learnt from man but wisdom comes from God. Barack I am 58 years old and a christian waman, and I know deep in my very soul that you are the choosen one to help us out of this ditch that Mr.BUSH HAS PUT US IN. My prayers are with you. HILLARY NO WEAPON THAT IS SET AGAINST BARACK SHALL PROSPER.

Thank you for finally addressing her false claims! I know Sen. Obama wants to stay above the tackiness that Clintons throw into politics but he has to stand up for himself.

I watched the primaries last night and was completely disgusted. America truly love dirty politics. It's no wonder that the world does not take us seriously. America ranked 43 in intelligence. I hope that Obama does not sink to the Clinton's level. This whole process is a joke. Why should we have elections? Let's just do what Russia did, hand pick the successor. Democracy? I don't think so!

We have been looking at the most hilarious, crazy, unrealistic adds and from the Clintons. Is she running Independant or Democrat? maybe she is running as a Clinton for the Clintons and not really for America. She speaks about her Foreign Policy experience but she has none excpet traveling to many countries by comparaison, Sen Obama did more on Foreign policy as a first tiome senator than Sen.

She was there just like all white house wives. She has not stood on her own feet. Most nations will see her for what she is an old,bitter, political flip flop ideas, of a women. She may have been a lawyer too, but I dont think she listens or discuss ideas like Obama. So what if he is newer, or younger To be new and young may be a good idea since we are the future along with the young in Iraq and Iran. I am white, married, with 2 kids living on 40,000 a year with family military history . Some day I want a women too just not her. All presidents have made major mistakes, including Clinton, but we will be better for a man with moral and open mindedness.

Obama is the person with better experience as well as bringing the country together as a unity. I don't think anyone can do this better than Obama; particularly, not Hiliary. She is very divisive and will essentially say and do anything against her opponent to win an election. She's not presidential and I will not vote for Hiliary if there were such a thing as a dream ticket. Obama keep doing what you have been doing. It's worked previously and will continue to work for those who are sensible and not ignorant to the facts.

So if Bill Clinton was a doctor then Hillary would have the right to practice medicine cause she was in the room watching for years, give me a break. Hillary was hanging out with the other wives baking cookies and deciding weather to get their nails done or a hair cut. Come on people. Barack has more brains and better judgement in his little finger then her, and do we really want someone with PMS to be anywhere near the button. It the truth, married men think about it nobodys saying it but its true. There i said what every man in america is to afraid to say, but its the darn truth.

I am not going to say that obama has a weath of experience. But I do think it is funny that Clinton says she does. She goes around sound like she ran the country ing 90's. She was the president's wife not the president. She was not the one making all of the decisions. If that time in the white house was so great for her experiance than why has she not gotten her scheduals from that time out. She hasn't, which meens that it must not be that great. She can say that Obama doesn't have ton of experience but neither does she.

For an entire year Obama has had the Chairman position on the Senate Foreign Relations, not one meeting, not one hearing, not one Bush adminstration official called to testify.

Obama can only say he was "too busy" to do his job. Well, the President has many jobs and many issues to address on a daily basis and President Hillary Clinton will do just that. She will not be "too busy" to do her job.

One of Hillary's whole campaign argument is that she has more experience. She even said that Jon McCain is more experienced than Obama. so that leads me to two questions:
1. If Hillary is the nominee, and in reality Jon McCain has more experience than her, and if the main qualification to be president is experience, doesn't that mean that Hillary has to admit that Jon McCain would be the better President due to more experience?

2. If Obama is the nominee, and Hillary believe's the corps of being President is experience, would she then support Jon McCain over Obama?

Can't have it both ways!

As someone who ran from buildings that collapsed on 9/11, I am very comfortable with the Senator from NY's experience. She was there to help the city recover and rebuild. She was there for the victim's families. She was there for NY. Where was Obama? Making speeches?

yeah,
that's really a very good point. Sen Clinton should tell which experience is she claiming. Which concrete fact shows this ability to handle a crisis ?

Visiting a country is not an argument. You voters should ask her to present some convincing ones ?

Here's the point now Sen Clinton, speeches are off, show the facts !!!

may the better win in the interest of your nation.

franck, Cameroonian from Ottawa, ON, CA

You cannot challenge those things that you have least of. How would you know what to challenge if you have less experience and knowledge on what you are challenging.

There is no doubt in my mind that Hillary Clinton is afraid of what the outcome is going to be for the presidential nominee on the Dems' side. She knows that the only way to gain some momentum is to play gutter politics and she has effectively done that! But a sensible person like me have asked myself, is this the kind of person I really want making foreign policy decisions on my behalf...NO I DON"T THINK SO!
8 years of the Clintons in the white house is enough already... She should take a hint from Governor Huckabee, he is an honourable American!!!

What Joy I feel today. Finally his arrogance was slapped down. Go Hillary!!!!

I don't this is a experience anymore. This is about risk. Will Dem. willing to take risk to nominate someone has limited record and with 2 big controvercies on the way?

Finally! Obama is asking the question that I have asked myself. Exactly what experience does Clinton have? She has only been in the Senate 2 years longer than Obama. Other than that she has never been elected to any other position as far as I know. She has been the wife of a governor and president but that does not mean she held any political authority. Obama was elected to lower level political posts before he became a senator. Her "Attack Ads" claim she is prepared but how?

Great Job in Vermont and a very tight race in Texas Obama supporters.

Obabma 08

Thanks Osama Bin Laden (barack) for the heads up for what you are seeking from Hillary......she will be prepared for all your questions!!! Be ready for the next debate.......she will be ready

She is prepared to handle a crisis because she was first lady pre-9/11?????? She truly makes no sense. Her attack ads will end up backfiring.

The best predictor of future behavior is past behavior. Guess what? Hillary has been working to improve health care and children's rights since before she graduated from law school.

Think about this Obamatons!

Thank you, President Obama!! I'm glad that you finally spoke against this foolishness. Hillary needs to realize that going around the world with her HUSBAND does not constitute as experience in foreign policy. That's why she is hesitant to release the White House documents; these will show that SHE, not Obama, is all about speeches. Does she really think that one speech that she made in China made a difference in women's rights? In her own words, she needs to "Get real!"

Obama 08!!

AMEN.

Finally! I am so glad that he is calling her on the carpet about this. 35 years of social dining with foriegn dignataries is not foriegn experience. Now, when she can start answering these questions she can also explain why she has still not released her tax returns. for the rest of us, we had to have our returns filed by April 15th last year for her 2006 filing, or October if she got an extension. Does she consider herself to be so much better than the rest of us that she and Bill have not filed her 2006 return. i guess we won't see her 2007 return until the year 2099 at this rate!

(PLEASE post this, Hillary's supporters deserve this)

Senator Clinton has the experience, no doubt about it.

Gee, it's amazing, why have all the Obama supporters vanished from the threads.

Can't stop crying?

The Obama supporters: "Hillary's campaign will be over once Obama wins Ohio and Texas"; WRONG!

How does it feel to have egg on your face Obama supporters!?

Go Hillary!!!!

Not only do i agree with Obama but his judgement on foreign policy is correct. He suggested meet with A-Jad and she laughed him off as did McCain. But Clinton nor McCain is speaking about A-Jad Going to Iraq with honors. a country our men and women are dying for. but they are allowed to speak with the terrorist but we can't? when are we going to stop outsourcing our responsibility and stand up for what is right. McCain and Clinton are so soft on foriegn policy. at least Obama has an effective plan.

Absolutely, we would all like to know what experience could Hillary be speaking of? People in Wisconsin would like Obama to address this issue head on. Repeatedly, she tries to spin tales and deceive people. We need honesty and integrity in the office. Vote Obama.

Hillary Clinton's "experience" is certainly NOT something I would be proud of.

VAmong other things...voting yes to authorize war with Iraq because it was politically expediant. How disgusting.

when new york city was up in the running to be the olympic city of 2012, president bush sent the former first lady to repersent her city and her country because she was known and respected internationally. that says something

I hope they drag every skeleton past and future out of her closet. Fight on Obama!

Sore loser!

About time Barack. Barack should have been calling her on her so-called "lifetime of experience" a long time ago.

Mr. Obama he need to take off the glove and start playing dirty like the clinton. . clinton now she cant win, the only why she will win is play dirty. like they say if you cant beat them you cheat them. i lost all respect for her and the clinton family. i'm a democratic if she win i'm vote for john McCain. she show will lost against him.

We hear that one of the reasons Obama did not vote either yea or nay on so many issues, but just "present", is because he did not want to alienate particular groups. What kind of President would he make? You can't have a conflict-avoidant type who can't take a stand because he can't stand the heat.

FINALLY the question gets asked.
Will we also see her tax returns and her phone logs etc from her "experienc earning" 8 years as the First Lady.?
Because, as it has been said, if she is going to count her time as First Lady for a reason she is more ready to be president we should know EVERYTHING about her 8 year stint.

Hillary Clinton has as much experience running the country as my ex-wife has running my business. I have no problem voting for her in November if she's the candidate on the ticket, but her genuine experience is exaggerated. As for my business.. well, my ex-wife has nothing to do with it, and is probably still working in part time data entry.

Senator Obama has been compared to President Kennedy. Kennedy was a war hero, had six years in the House of Representatives, and served eight years in the Senate before becoming president. Obama has three years in the Senate, his first national office. Furthermore, his foreign experience seems to consist of one judgement; but about 70% of the Senate gave Bush the authorization to go to war, so his vote wouldn't have stopped it. The bottom line is, what qualifies him to deal with the situation AS IT IS TODAY?

Can you see the look of defeat on his face? Quite a change from that swagger and mocking. Yuk.

He needs to take VP slot. Nothing Obama says will convince America that is is more sure of what he's trying to get himself in to than Hillary.

CLINTON/OBAMA 08

Not just Experience. But, the common Sense that goes with it...

She has it all... Sorry Chum!

Are people forgetting that if Hillary would make it in that two families have been running this country for the past 24 years? Bush's and the Clintons. That is scary to me. Same old, Same old.

YES! It's about time he caught her on that! It's about time all of the Hillary-experience people look up her experience record and see what makes her so qualified. Look up her record in the Senate. Don't trust any candidate's word until you've done the research and seen it for yourself! I've done the research on both candidates and I've made my decision based on the facts that I've found, and yet Hillary supporters will still call my generation delusional while they blindly take Hillary's word as truth without second thought. DO YOUR RESEARCH PEOPLE!

She has more experience ,a lot more than Obama. If he is the vp, he will be trained and learn. Then we will feel comfortable voting for him on 2016.
Clinton/Obama

Hillary Clinton is wasting campaign donation money on confetti. Shame on Hillary. She has not won the nomination. She is not winning in delegates.

Tell Hillary to release her tax returns!!

I know 100% that this is the winning ticket.
Both extremely intelligent, smart, men of integrity, authors, and very progressive "can do attitude". Plus Jim Webb is ex Military.

THAT'S RIGHT! START LAYING INTO THIS SO CALLED "EXPERIENCE CLAIM THAT SHE HAS! SHE IS GOING TO SPLIT THE PARTY BY ANY MEANS.

Please obama, don't get sucked into the temptation of going negative to counter Hillary's attacks. She is doing enough to weaken the party. This could be a very ugly next couple months, or it could be a chance to move away from politics as usual as both candidates have spoken of.

Let's come together to beat Mc Cain, our common enemy.
But keep in mind that the top of the dream ticket should be the one who got more popular votes and more pledge delegates and more likely to beat Mc Cain in the general election, otherwise that's not gonna work because voters would have felt that their voice matters less than other insiders decision.

CNN, there's a new poll showing Obama beats Mc Cain by 9% WHY DON'T YOU POST IT?
Here's the link:

It's about time you said this Obama...Clinton is running on false pretenses and now she is talking about her and Barack being on a dream ticket. Now, that is absurd. When she was ahead in the democratic delegate count, she wasn't talking about this. This
is her last ditch effect to try to get in that white house. If she can't do
it herself, she wants to do it by clinging to the coat tails of Barack.

OBAMA '08

Did he challenge her experience when he called SNL to complain about their bias? Ha! I can't believe he called to complain about a comedy show. The guy is so weak.

Obama is going on an experience argument? Really?

Yes, she visited 80 countries, but he better stay off his 'tea party' line. It Obombed last time.

I was hoping that he would do this because that has been my question all along. How much experience does being the First Lady actually give a person? With that being said if Obama wins the presidential seat I guess Michelle Obama can say that she too would be the next person in line to that post.

She IS more experienced that Obama that's for sure. She HAS been on the foreign relations committee in the US Senate; she has been to 80 countries and knows the leaders and how these countries operate, she knows that you don't meet with dictators for a photo-op without a lot of pre-work being done; she has the support of over 30 former generals who have seen her in action; and she has been a part of the decision making process in the White House on various foreign relation issues. If Obama wants to make this into a question about who is more experienced then he will lose as ALL the exit polls have shown to date.

YES!!! Make the case!

She may have lived in the White House, but that doesn't mean she handled any such crisis. I respect her involvement as First Lady, but she has never been Commander in Chief. She has only been a senator a little longer than Obama - less than a full term more.

In contrast I think it was about time that Hillary spoke out on Obama's lack of experience. American's deserved to know.

And I think Obama should use her disclosure as a head's up that Americans need to know from him what his experience is based on.
So instead of attacking Hillary Obama, use your time to explain your experience you state you have. If you have it, you should be able to explain it in detail.

Exactly, Sen. Obama is right on point.
She doesn't have the experience to be president. And, if you go on her record, she only votes for what's politically popular. Besides that, just look at how her campaign has been ran, to date. That should tell her supporters something, at the very least, she is not leadership material, at all.

Since Hillary wanted to cry foul with the media and gain recent sympathy; it's high time you (the media) start looking into her claims of vast years of government experience.

Also, if it is in fact true that she has the years of experience she claims (counting Bill's years in the White House), then wouldn't she be more of the same 'ol politics?

It doesn't surprise me that the majority of blue collar citizens are falling for Hillary's ploys–it's apparent they don't understand how politicians use the media to push their agendas (NAFTA debacle with Obama to question him and phone ringing at 3 a.m. in the morning–like she would actually be the one to answer the phone in the WH).

Wake up people! Hillary has played the dirty politics card to make her recent comeback.

My point exactly!
Can someone please ARTICULATE Sen Clinton's 35 years of experience?

CSpan said it best today when they said 18 of those years were as "hostess". A few as a Wal Mart director, a few practising law and making lots of money. How many of you got a job right out of college that paid you $180,000 a year like Chelsea?.

Do you people even realize that Sen Obama has had far more legislative experience than Sen Clinton?

This is what you get when half the electorate does not have a college degree. Everything Sen Obama says is going right over their heads.

THINK ABOUT..

HE SPEND TWICE AS MUCH ON ADS AND HE STILL LOST!!!!

HILLARY 08!!!!!

He is going to shoot himself in the foot doing this. Bad move.

It's About Time!

Go Obama!

Keep showing the light on all her lies and false accusations!

Maybe the cochroachs will finally show themselves!

If being First Lady counts as foreign policy experience, I would go with Laura Bush.

See Obama continues to go negative he started it and he continues it.
Why should the super delegates vote for Obama in states where he won and not vote for who they believe is the best candidate especially when he only won those states because Independents and Republicans voted for him only to keep Hillary out. First a democratic primary should be just that, a democratic primary where only registered democrats should be allowed to vote, just like in Pennsylvania. Second those independents and republicans are not going to vote for him in the general election, those states are Republican states and will vote Republican in the general election and no amount of pretty words are going to change that fact.
If Florida or Michigan votes don’t count for the democratic convention then they should not count for the general election, both states should boycott the general election. Remember Florida was the deciding factor in 2000 when we got Bush.
I keep reading Obama supporters say that Hillary will do or say anything to get elected how ridiculous can they be as if Obama hasn’t said or done things to try to get elected, what’s worst is that Obama says one thing to the voters and then in a close door meeting with Canadian officials says something else. It’s a politicians’ job to do and say things to get elected, being president is what they are working for, but what Obama did is low and proves that he is no change agent, he’s just a same old politician promising the world just to get elected to then turn his back on the voters like he did in New Orleans.

Obama, I think what you should tell Hilary is this, simple and clear.

" How can she take the resposiblity of a white house when she can't even take responsibilty and control of her own husband.

Beside, she just tell the whole world today that only OHIO is the only state that has said that she should be the president of the United states.

What about the other states that voted for her. Is this a snob or what to the other states that voted for her and to the remaining states.

So Mississipi, Wyoming, Pennsylvania and other states please note that your votes do no not count and are not acceted, because OHIO is the only , onlllllllllllllllllllllllllly state that says Hilary should be the Nominee.

YES SHE CAN!!!

YES SHE CAN!!!

YES SHE CAN!!!

YES SHE WILL!!!

Hillary, never give up! You are the one that can pull this country together, roll up your sleeves, and mend our fences.

HILLARY/OBAMA 2008

I know Obama has tried to steer his campaign based on the principles of honor and integrity.. that's one of the main reasons why I admire him. But it's good to hear that he is ready to go on the offensive! Hillary needs to be exposed for the power hungry, win-at-all-costs attitude that has soured me to her campaign.

I would advise Mr. Obama to keep the pressure on her, and brook no quarter, as she has her claws out and is ready for a bloody battle. Just remember not to let her get a hold of you while she is on her way down, as her death throws may shatter the DEMS.

Good that you're back on the horse Obama. Do what you have to do, but don't go negative. That's Clixton's way, not yours.

Stick to your ideals and you will win in Mississippi and Wyoming and erase the inroads she made in your delegate lead and popular vote advantage.

I will never vote for Clinton. Barack Obama has conducted himself and his campaign with sincerity, integrity, intelligence, honor and grace. He showed that again in his remarks last night.

It's a shame that large numbers of people in our country continue to fall for the kind of dirty politics Clinton's campaign relies upon.

If my fellow democrats aren't smart enough to reject this kind of politicking, then we don't deserve to take back the White House in November.

That's what I'm talking about Obama! Start challenging Clinton on her alleged "35 years of experience." Use that as context for the economy, environment and education. If she insists that she has foreign and domestic policy experience then challenge her on her lame excuse for her Iraq war vote. Ask her about why she has flip flopped on NAFTA and haven't admit that it failed? Begin to draw comparisons between her and McCain on their scant economic policy experience. That's how you beat her. Don't go negative...go matter-of-factly.

Good point . I've never realy understood this 35 year claim. My wife is a social worker, so does her coming home and talking about her day give me any claim to experience in social work?

I know Hillary was in the Whitehouse, but from what I've heard she was more involved in helping Bill fight his political battles than run his foriegn policy work.

Obama is challenging Hillary's experience? Are you kidding?
If this is true, this speaks more about his inexperience than her experience. I think I'm making the right choice to support Hillary.

I agree, Okay CNN=Clinton News Network, where is your coverage on her "experience"? Where are those tax returns? First lady is not experience. What did you do? America expects us to vote for someone just because she is a woman and a Clinton. BS. I will never vote for her lying cheating self. I am a woman, and she is a disgrace. Apparently playing the victim and dirty politics works for the media and ill-informed voters.

Someone asked did Margaret Thatcher need to use the "fear" card of the IRA to win in England? No. Hillary is not running on her own merits, nor her own limited experience. Hillary is running on playing the victim, using the "fear" card.

Regarding gender, a change in gender of President is not Change of status quo. Whether the candidate wears pants or a pantsuit does not matter. What matters is we are tired of the same old politics of getting nothing done. Hillary has no foreign policy experience other than being the First Lady.

Time to get tough. She admitted this morning after questioned repetedly that there is no one "red phone" moment in her life. All of her experience combined has equiped her for the red phone moment if it comes. BULL! What has she really done? So she has signed some people up to vote, so she has visited some countries...big deal, how does that help me today, what has she done for me lately. That is what the people should be asking themselves. She thinks she has caught Obama off guard and he can't handle the negative. It's time to see if she can take it as well as she can dish it out, or will she start whining again.

Hillary is misleading when she says that she has all this foreign policy experience, she doesn't. Barack Obama is right to point that out. Hillary 's campaign is really negative and sinking to new lows. The longer her campaign resorts to fear tactics, race baiting, religion bashing and divisive tactics, the lower my opinion of her. I really hope she is not destroying the democrat's chances in November by her desperate negative attacks.

She is the BEST to win over John Mccain. I cannot see why people have a hard time accepting that. Clearly, if she does not get the nomination, there will be ALOT of people switching to Mccain rather than Obama.

HILLARY 08!!

Go Obama, use her tactics. She is so negative and it seems that is the only way to win. You want for an American President?

"It's 3 AM Senator. The NIE report is here regarding the vote to Authorize the president to go to war with Iraq. Do you want to read it?"

"No, that's OK. I've already decided to vote what is best for me politically. Also, I'm tired. Give me the "executive summary" in the morning. Good-night".

Is this who we want answering the call at 3 AM?

The campaign battle goes on. Senator Clinton wants to have "fun" with the future of our grea country.

Nice.

Hey I dont see any beer?? LOL Guess Obama doesnt "BUY" his way!

How can Obama refute Hillary's claim that she has more experience? When it comes down to scandal, unethical behavior, and marginally legal activities, she has 100 times the experience and he does not have a prayer of catching up.

Hillary threw the kitchen sink and played the fear card (did she get that from Dick Cheney?).

Time for Barak to hit back. The campaign continues to the convention.

He's been an elected official longer than Hillary.

Her experience is a joke.

She made a book about her cat.

Hillary is keeping her experience a secret, like her tax returns.

It's not even about the experience. Where as all her experience got her? No where. I'm predicting Obama will win the next two states. One thing I definately hate about HILLARY is, she doesn't campaign every where. She goes after the big states and depends on them. While Obama campaigns every where giving everyone an equal opportunity

I don't know Obama if you remeber the little thing in New York when we were attacked by terrorists. Yes Hillary was there helping on the ground and working in Washington to help America deal with the tragedy

Hey Mr. Obama, do you think you won't be a part of Washington IF you win the nomination? Got news for you sir, the White House is in Washington!

You obviously can't win the states necessary to you in the G.E….that's been proven so far. Strike 3!

John, please don't wait to long...

Obama has more legislative experience than Hillary Clinton. If we go on most experience than we pick McCain. Voters are going on the right judgement right now. That means Obama. That is why Obama still leads in both the popular vote and in delegates.

I agree 100% with Obama on this one. What experience does hillary have that makes her so much better and ready to be a candidate? Her first-lady roll is experience?? If that was experience, then George W. Bush would have been an awesome president since his father was in the white house AND he was a governor. We all saw how that one turned out. Anyone can visit any country in the world. But if you go to other countries and count SIGHTSEEING as experience with foreign nations like Bush did, then you seriously have some problems. Where is the beef Hillary?

Yea good point? why is she claiming experience? Is she taking Bill's credit?

Well put Obama (Obama'08). It's time someone ask her to back up her outrageous "experience" claims. Simply saying that she has more, is ridiculous and it's a shame that the average American runs around repeating her. Obama has been in the Senate longer, do your research. As for national security, and foreign policy...all she has to show for it is voting for the war in Iraq! Be smart people and realize her strategy, it's to bamboozle the average American, sadly it's working for her!

Amen Senator Obama!

We are here in Pittsburgh gearing up for the battle of Pennsylvania!

the idea that clinton has more experience is a fallacy.

as first lady? as a lawyer for wal-mart? look at her record in the senate - no significant legislation to speak about. and she voted for the war!

obama has opposed the war from the start. he has done more in his time in the state senate and u.s. senate than clinton. he is a once-in-a-lifetime candidate.

NO MORE BUSH'S. NO MORE CLINTON'S.

'08AMA

Hey Mr. Obama, do you think you won't be a part of Washington IF you win the nomination? Got news for you sir, the White House is in Washington!

You obviously can't win the states necessary to you in the G.E....that's been proven so far. Strike 3!

Nevermind HER experience. She can handle herself ... let's talk about YOU! Ranting and raving about your Iraq speech from 6 years ago doesn't cut it anymore. What else you got?

You go Obama. I think running a clean campaign among these uneducated people is not working. Let's play the same game as Hillary. Get the facts and Hillary out.

You are still winning. Keep going. Go Obama.

Thank You for hitting back, now looks like we finally got a game!!!!!

GObama....GObama!!!

Now, WHERE ARE THOSE TAX RETURNS??????

Please ask about THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank You for hitting back, now looks like we finally got a game!!!!!

Hit them where you're strong not weak!

Hillary for 08.

obama is going negative! what a phony, so much for hope!! go hillary 08
