Wow!!!! They are pretty bold!!! There is a FRAUD

Is this all Obama has? I wouldn't release my tax returns for the general public to see. If she hasn't been audited, then why is it anyone's business what she has or does with her own income? No one has accused her of financial indiscretions, so what's the big deal here?

Obama's true colors are showing, if he's really this desperate. And, it's about time.

Hillary will do ANYTHING to win. I Hope America is paying attention to her tactics.

Again… WHAT IS HILLARY CLINTON HIDING!?? Americans want to know…& we want to know NOW!!!

AMERICANS FOR TRANSPARENCY '08 & Forever!!

For Obama's call for Clinton to release tax return, I have to say it is a bad and desperate move, only cause people realizing more that he is just a dirty politician fighting for political positioning, and also maybe the loses hit him too hard, he forgot now is only early March, tax filing deadline is still more than a month away, what is the point to call out people release their tax return now; plus Has you release yours yet? probably not, I bet you are too busy for your compaign, has not got time to fill out your form yet! Isn't it you who are saying you are too busy for your compaign, that you haven't had one single meeting with NATO regarding the terrorist in Afganstan?

I would like to know if Obama agrees with his foreign policy adviser who yesterday stated, he was "not ready" to take a 3 a.m. call in the White House?

If the people around you have their doubts then you have a problem Senator Obama.

If the Clinton campaign was smart they wouldn't bring up Ken Star. If folks start to remember White Water and the other dealings of the Clintons shine could go completely.

When it comes to dirt, Clintons should really be silent as they have mountain of it.

The gloves are off. Hillary has just begun to fight. This is her turn to be President and why is Obama getting in her way. Obama needs to bow out and wait his turn. Love U Hillary. Hispanics Love U.

I am sorry, I got so excited that I sent the above message prematurely!

There is a FRAUD case pending against Bill Clinton (and Hillary may be added back into the case as a defendant and possibly charged with perjury)! Paul v. Clinton could go to trial right around the time of the general election!!! There is far too much to explain her, the mainstream media had better get on this ASAP, because alot of stars ands hollywood types are being deposed in this case. It could turn into the largest Campaign Finance violation case in Campaign finance history. What in the world will this do to the party and the election? I think they are so used to getting away with things that this doesn't even phase them. She should get out and stop asking questions about someone who is not yet accused and sweep around her own door.

Hillary, cut the talk and show us the credentials for the White House!

You accused Obama of all talks about hope, while you are all talks about your qualification for the White House.

Nice try Wolffie…..it won't fly

CNN and the Clinton Campaign should be ashamed of themselves for this worthless reporting. I can't believe CNN has resorted to this kind of tabloid style reporting. I won't be watching them anymore, and I hope all Obama supporters boycott them also.

Obama 08

yeah…yeah…yeah…just release the Tax returns…then you wont have to make any comparisons at all.

Ken Starr, the guy who said Slick Willie was having an affair? I remember him. Yeah, then Billy Bob said he didn't. Right. Tell me, who lied again? I don't remember. Did Bubba have an affair or did Ken Starr make the whole thing up.

Nobody seems to be asking about the Peter Paul fraud trial involving the Clintons directly.

Media do your job better!!!

I am having trouble reading about the campaigns anymore.

When these two completely destroy one another will everyone be happy ?

It is unfortunate that anyone, with a sense of moral virtue, would think of the Clintons being back in the White House, let alone give their hard-worked dollars to that campaign!!

I guess some Americans are getting to be like the Brits: dynasty, name recognition, and wealth. The thought of Bill and the Blue Dress back in that White House makes me feel so sick and ashamed each day. "Past behavior is a good predictor of future behaviors" The World is watch us!

Can the Clintons please turn the page? This is not like Ken Starr. It is about a candidate we can trust. Can the Clintons be trusted?

Clinto will do anything to win!! Pathetic!!!!!!!!!!

And for the record, I really wish Ken Starr had been able to prove much of the case, especially the part about the Clintons selling US missile technology to Communist China. The Clintons are traitors, the penatly for which is the firing squad.

hmmm… they still protest releasing those tax returns and white house papers. Really makes you wonder what they are hiding.

Do not try to spin the focus off Clinton. Since she is so "vetted", lets see those tax returns. Lets see the resume documenting 35 years of experience. Or is it experience she xeroxed from Bill Clinton?

I agree that the papers should be released…and as an Obama supporter, I am upset that it took him this long to pressure her about this…The tax returns and White House Logs will either prove her 35 yrs of experience that she is claiming, or show that she is not who she has been boosting she is…It amazes me that she adds her husbands term in office as part of your "experience"…It's time for her to put her show proof of her experience or shut up!

People lets ask ourselves why Sen. Hillary Clinton had her senior thesis at Wellesley College sealed? In the past 100 years all senior thesis's at Wellesley College have been made available except for Hillary Rodham Clinton. Also, how do Sen. Clinton go from the President of the Young Republican Organization at Wellesley College and an overwhelming supporter of Sen. Barry Goldwater, a known racist to an advocate of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.? .

Will the real Hillary Clinton please stand up? People before you vote, ask yourself, what is Sen. Hiillary Rodham Clinton hiding and can she be trusted?

tar

Like I said Yesterday!

She should have kept it positive!

This is not going away! and the Republicans are going to be much more relentless!

Dems, be carefull who you put up against McCain !

Hillary=McCain!

WHO CARES ABOUT THEIR TAX RETURNS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I only care about mine. This is NOT news. GIVE IT UP!

My understanding is, unless your are the nominee this is not required. If someone knows the law I'd appreciate the info. This years tax returns should prove interesting, what with the land deal with Rezko and all.

She's sidestepping again.

Ken Starr has nothing to do with this. Where's your tax return, Hillary? Why the delay? What are you hiding?

Is Kenn Starr really who the Clintons want to be talking about?

is there some sort of requirement for or tradition of presidential candidates releasing their income tax forms? Obama has chosen to do so, but his suggestion that Clinton's choice not to do so is somehow nefarious is ridiculous. It seems to me that if we follow Obama's logic, any candidate could release any records he/she pleases and then deride other candidates for not following suit.

Desperate and sad

That is stupid and low

I think that the Obama campaign hit a "sensitive spot" with Hillary and that referring to Obama as Ken Starr confirm it. Ken Starr concluded his investigation of the Clintons and did his job. Congress allowed both of them to "escape from the jaws of victory" buy not having the character to impeach. It is going to even get more delicious in the general campaign election if Hillary wins the nomination. Her political experience will not be what is questioned, but rather the ethical conduct of both her and William "don't-ask-don't tell" Clinton.

Kinda like the "Right Wing Conspiracy?" Voters want a candidate they can trust.

Ken Starr or not, the question regarding her tax return is valid. By the same token, Obama doen't have any excuse for his NAFTA-gate either.

STARR ACTUALLY IS A GOOD AND DECENT MAN COMPARED TO CLINTONS …

Is this a joke???The Clinton campaign just won't stop. Desperation isugly. I guess they realized that Tuesday wasn't such a big win after all (only net 4 delegates). Clinton has to drop out like Richardson says, because its the only way to save the party for the General Election. Polls show Obama would beat Grandpa Munster by a larger % than Hillary, so why don't we unite behind the clear future nominee? Obama in 08!!!

Obama in 08!

Sen Clinton said she would release her 2005, 2006, and 2007 tax returns by March 5. She does not, and yet calls someone else names? Lack of honesty, Integrity, and Morals.
Oops, sorry, I forgot, she is a Clinton.

The Clinton camp continues is undignified tradition playing the victim.

Sure, preemptively accuse your opponents of the dastardly deeds you yourself have committed and will commit again. Decry the media "bias" against your unscrupulously underhanded tactics. Take credit for the accomplishments of the Clinton administration while reacting furiously to any blame for the failures.

You can't have it both ways. History will prove you to be the worst sort of hypocrite and narcissist.

Sour, Obama. His face on TV said it all. Bitter he was after losing in

Texas and Ohio. I am!!!!!! Day's Obama….

The choice for Uncle Sam… Not going to happen. Mr.

THis from a campaign that compared Obama to BUSH????????

. She has polluted the air for her benefit. It seemed to me that she has forgot her main identity- she is a democrat. The way she started and continued undermine and defame another democrat – ideologically its not an honest & responsible approach as a party-person. This type of sub standard politics we find in third world countries where democracy is still getting its shape. Person who , for her win, can ignore party interest how we can expect that she will be a responsible & honest president of a country ?

Hillary, now, you have to suffer with the pollution.

I guess you could say Obama is like Ken Starr if you want. Both asked the Clinton's questions about their honesty that they cannot/could not answer. Whether it's tax forms or White Water forms they double take and attack. I really though 8 years of Clinton and 8 years of Bush would wake this country up!!

Heard about the rumors that Bill Clinton just anothe affair with a rich Lady from Canada???
Oh Oh

If Obama is Ken Starr then she is Karl Rove.

Music to my ears..

This is an unfair comparison–Obama could never compete against his scholarly leadership, tenacious pursuit of justice, and dedicated public service to the nation. Hell, he's only been on the scene for a few years–and that was as a political hack!!

Unfair–Ken Starr is great American. The jury is still out on Obama!

Ken Starr…obama???/RU crazy
Clinton… U as a democrat have hurt me (another Democrat)..you are dirty and you do not deserve to be the President

what about Rezko and Obama's cheap house deal?

this is just getting ridiculous! I don't see how her taxes have anything to do with the campaign.

He discounts it because deep down it would produce a Democratic landslide!

I'm allowed to make up things about my opponent, but he's not allowed to ask any questions.

My experience being near people counts, his experience working for people doesn't.

My narrow victories count, his landslides don't.

My voters count, his don't.

The artical measures a minimum standard that all Americans expect of their public servants. For transparency, I would like to know Senator Clinton's record on ear marks.

Sam

Only a real IDIOT running for president would bring up the name of the lawyer who prosecuted her husband's impeachment - and thus remind the American people about the things that really went on during the Clinton Administration, like Bill Clinton being disbarred and impeached.

More great judgment from Hillary Clionton and her sorry campaign.

Hillary supporters…you guys are losers and you guys have lost half of democrats if she does not show her tax returns..she is dirty and we do not know what she is hiding…

but the kind of transparency and accountability that Americans are looking for and that’s been missing in Washington for far too long,” said Burton…… are you referring to Obama's "OBVIOUS" transparency about Naftagate with the Canadians. Give me a break Burton….you all got caught lying so now you are trying to get Hillary caught in something.

The longer this thorn is in our side, the more it is infecting the democratic party. How long do we have to wait to pull Hillary out.

Obama 08

And people still vote for Clinton? I don't get it. I really don't get it.

Her tax returns do not have to be submitted until next month. Normal people that might have a very simple 1040 do not file untill March or April. It would be a mistake to release any numbers untill you have had a qualified CPA look them up and down. We are talking about very big numbers and complex IRS rules. Wealthy people, even Democrats, take great care in preparing documents for the IRS.

If Obama is not ready to lead the country why is Hillary willing to team up Obama for the dream ticket.

Hillary campaign is playing double standards.

The reason that the tax returns are so important….. think Cheney and Halliburton people. You can go online to the FEC website (PUBLIC/FREE) and see that Clinton has taken money from drug companies during her senate years. Big companies, etc. It's not just how much money she makes, who cares, its the source!!!

It's about political favors, etc. Think people!

Cnn please post this; don't put me in moderation like all the other times.

Dallas, TX.

Hilldog!! Hiding the truth in lies for 35 yearS!!

If you are not the *hunter* you will be the *hunted*.

In their tax returns, you will find that most of their money is coming from foreigners - India, China, Canada, etc. China desperate wants another Clinton in the White Hous. And don't think for a minute, Bill Clinton's Canadian buddies weren't behind the NAFTA memo.

CNN, report the Peter Paul Fraud!!!!

WOW Clinton is comparing Obama to Ken Star??? hahaha If asking about tax returns is so bad!! wanting to know the TRUTH about someone shouldn't be so bad!!! unless there is something to hide!!

Let's see all the documentation of that "8 years of experience" as First Lady. I'm sure there's shadier dealings to supplement her exotic tea drinking adventures in foreign affairs and national security. Sorry, Hillary, I don't think receiving a teapot as a gift qualifies as "experience" or serves as a badge for diplomacy.

Wow…. Talk about slander. I am a Democrat, but if it is between her and McCain- I'm voting Republican!

Good for you Hillary, remind the voter sof all the Clinton White House shenanigans, the sleeze the absolute yuck factors, the attempts to define what "is" is. Keep it up and you will maneuver your way out of the nomination. Obama my have the younger generation, but we old'uns have loong memories of the Clinton Chaos.

Release the tax returns already. What are you hiding Hillary? There must be something to hide. She could have released them along time ago if she WANTED to. Obviously she has something to hide. They probably made 100 million last year and pay $2000 in taxes. Must be nice to be filthy rich like the Clintons.

obama has every right to ask for Hillary's tax returns. What is she hidding. We ndde to know where the 5million she loaned her campaign came from. If she does not release them then she is a fraud. I know for sure that that she did not loan her campaign any money. You need to come clean Hillary or this will come to haunt you.

Oh brother. Next she'll say Obama is part of a "vast right wing conspiracy." Is there anyone else in America so at home with attacking while playing the victim? She'll throw mud and then cry that someone made her hands are dirty.

I am so tired of Hillary Clinton and the Clinton way. I am so ready for change.

Have they even filed yet? They have till April 15, after all.

Not that their tax forms will change anyone's vote. I highly doubt Obama listed Rezco or whatever his name was on his.

Hillary, Latinos do NOT owe you anything. This Latina is for Obama! Obama 08! Down with the lies, the deception, and the hate! Up with Hope!

Obama is using an obsolete, outdated playbook. He should CHANGE and find his own playbook.

Ooooh this democratic party is getting nasty and dirty. This party is so divided. The republicans are just loving this!!!

Actually Hillary you do "control the release of the White House schedules in question", you are LYING.

You have not even initiated requesting these to be reviewed and released and remember last week you blamed the White house, but were silent when they said that you have not even started the process.

You've gotten your wish Hillarity, the media is now leaving you alone and letting you get away with more lies, innuendos, smears, tricks, just like the good old 90's.

Need medicines again, Clinton Fatigue is returning, part of the vast left-wing, right-wing, sexist, media conspiracy.

Ready to MISLEAD from day one.

Well there they go again rideing on their broomsticks; it is a great campaign to get back to Kansas, TOTO.

Keep it up, Obama! Repeat the same thing about her ? 35 years of experience, ? tax returns, etc. ONLY, begin to tout your own qualifications over and over and over again so the electorate has something to compare.

i want to know…AND I HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO KNOW

WHAT THE F…ARE YOU HIDING< CLINTON…..you were too happy to talk about Obama and his friend Rezko..now I want to know about you…I HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO KNOW IF YOU WANT MY VOTE…

Most of you on here cheat on your taxes I think or you wouldnt be getting so upset ! I would give you mines either

Wow!

Clinton camp indicating that Obama has integrity?

Another vote for Obama!

She said in the Ohio debate that those tax returns would be out after the 15th of April. Sounds like pure Obamarrhea.

He's got to much time on his hands…maybe he should Chair his committee on Afghanistan.

Here's a tip Hillary…………..I really do not think you want to bring up White Water, Travelgate, Impeachments etc. That brings back BAD MEMORIES. …not to mention the untimely suicide of the prosecutors witness( EVERYONE THOUGHT THAT WAS ODD). Maybe you should reconsider whom your folks are sling mud at…………some of us remember the good old Clinton days.

Obama has carried the majority of delegates in 24 states to Hillary's 13 and he has over 1million more popular votes, why is she still around and slinging mud? Maybe ego, probably not the best interest of the country.

come on hillary the truth will come out liar. You attacked obama for something he did not do. So how does it feel now. Release those tax returns. The american people need to know.

This guy just is trying to down-play Obama's point. Obama is obviously going to try to raise public awareness about the Clinton saga.

Obama is clever to do this. Probably knowing something that possibly the public is incapable of knowing he sees this as a window of opportunity.

You go Obama !

Obama is getting desperate!!! I would like to see a copy of his campaign donations.

Go Hillary!!!

YES, WE WILL!!!

Obama does a great job of villainizing Hillary, and side stepping the questions that count. He is a cool cat, funny guy, but so is our current President. And like our current President he is great at avoiding answering the questions that count and directing attention else where. I vote Present for OBAMA!

This is merely Obama mimicking Clinton's success by digging up the past. Obama saw that it worked, so he's doing everything he can to discredit her. This doesn't gybe well with his "holier than thou" posture, that somehow he's the "anti-Washington". When he gets negative, the country will see that he's human, after all, and not a visionary. The bigger question is whether he could put aside his ego and except the VP position. I don't think he could handle answering to a woman.

Poor Clintons, always the victim. It was someone elses fault Bill cheated on his wife. It is the press fault that she isn't doing better in the election. It is the caucuses fault that she can't win any of them. They have an excuse for everything and take responsibility for nothing.

This is absolutely ridiculous!

It's OK to throw the "Kitchen Sink" at your opponent but as soon as your opponent asks questions they are made out to be Ken Starr? If you dish it out you have to be able to take it.

Hillary would lose a general election badly. She is way too devisive and will most certainly unite the Republicans and many Independents. The way she has handled her campaign has also alienated many Democates who would vote for McCain.

Obama release you purchase sale agreement of your property and land deal in ILLinois. Let's see the Resko ,Obama sale that you and he agreed upon.

And what about being friends and visiting the home of the person who wanted to blow up the Pentigon in 1971.

"I am sorry, I got so excited that I sent the above message prematurely!"

Man I hate premature posting don't you? I like Obama but I don't think I'd bring up White Water while his land deal with Rezko in Chicago is in play. Might be smart to drop that one.

Why does Hillary need to release her returns for people to be happy? Oh for crying out loud, she may be an elected official but she is also a private citizen. Unless she is doing something so highly illegal in obtaining her income, give it a rest, Obama cult!

She has done a fabulous job for NYS, let her work for ALL of the USA.

Why is it that Hillary can say anything she wants about Obama and when he fires back he gets blasted by the Hillary supporters. Fight Obama don't let them bully you!!!

The reason that the tax returns are so important….. think Cheney and Halliburton people. You can go online to the FEC website (PUBLIC/FREE) and see that Clinton has taken money from drug companies during her senate years. Big companies, etc. It's not just how much money she makes, who cares, its the source!!!

It's about political favors, etc. Think people!

Cnn please post this; don't put me in moderation like all the other times.

Dallas, TX.

Witness list was announced for the Rezko scandal.
Guess what…Obama's name - NOT ON IT.
He's not even involved enough to be a witness in the trial.

case closed.

that piece of news is all over europe now… and what worries me the most is that Obama is not responding at same level… he does need to speed up and do more events… she has 3 today he has none…. hmmm i do not understand…. from an europian point of view… and its said here… obama gave up…

i do feel is time to take the gloves of… or put them on as the case may be lolol and start punching back FAST!

Nice dodging of the question, Bill.

Good lord, the Clinton's just absolutely make me sick.

What's she hiding? What is it she doesn't want America to know?

Lying. Cheating. Twisting words. Hiding. That's the Clinton way.

What kind of powerful leader stands by while her husband repeatedly cheats on her? One that realizes his enormous popularity will get her elected. Hillary is a brilliant political strategist, but her integrity and ability to stand on her own is lacking. I believe in the self-made man whom rose up from a broken home with integrity.

Obama is starting to play the game pin the tail on the donkey - but he keeps missing. Obama is a "personality", whereas Hillary is a person.

This woman is not acting like she should be president of these United Sates.She doesnot hit the little states, she sends Bill, then tries to attack Obama because she can not fabricate qualifications that are substantial
so who does she compare herself to?

Transparency, transparency, transparency!!!!

Obama '08

The Obama=Nafta comments are really starting to get on my nerves. It was BILL CLINTON who signed NAFTA, and HILLARY CLINTON who supported it and wrote in her book about how great it was.

Kind of the same way Bush made John Kerry out to be a war criminal, even though Kerry had the purple heart, while Bush was AWOL fro the guard. These are Rove tactics at their finest.

If she wins the nomination she will not stand a chance against John Mcain because she will not have the votes to do so. She is DIVISIVE.

If asking to see which of the "lobbyists" have been pushing money into Hillary and Bill's pockets is a "Ken Starr",

then Hillary's tactic of who is on the phone at 3AM fear mongering is a "Dick Cheney".

The Clintons won't release their money sources because then voters would find out that she's getting her money from the Saudi Royal family. Which would mean, yes, that Hillary Clinton, George W. Bush, and Osama Bin Laden all got their money from the same oil-rich tyrants (who, yes, also have a vested interest in a "Democratic" Iraq).

Memories of Ken Starr…

Memories of scandals and slick sidestepping… cigars and blue dresses… and Bill's impeachment. That's why I don't see Obama sharing the ticket with the Clintons.

It looks like Hillary Huckabee is getting traped inside her own dirty game…

She wanted to go hugly, right?
She said that Obama wasn't vetted, right?

Now, let's see who wasn't really vetted…

P.S.: Now CNN, be my guest and start giving prime time to this story, ok? Oh…and that includes the last days before Pennsylvania…

I'm down with Steve, give up the tax returns and shut the hell up.

Hillary is too delusional to be President.

She has a closet full of tinfoil hats, and skeletons.

GIVE ME BREAK…STOP THE MADNESS HILLARY…YOU ARE NOT SUPPOSE TO BE A REPUBLICAN!!!!!!!

Clinton needs to show her tax returns.

She also needs to hurry up and release the white house papers from her "tour of duty" as first lady.

A Food Network Star just got fired for padding and exaggerating his resume. I am betting that Hillary should be fired as well!

I don't believe she negotiated treaties on behalf of the US or stopped ethnic cleansing. I think the only credible thing she did was to give a speech on Women's rights in China

ahhhhh…….. more speeches….. doesn't that sound familiar.

Why are we acting as if Obama is the first one to call for Clintons tax records? People this is politics…get over yourselves & may the best candidate wins. I have nothing to say negative about either of the two. So many of us are quick to sling mud towards the other. There is a way to stay positive…keep the nastiness from entering your minds!

So, how will it be before "Her Majesty" wipes away another tear, and chokingly sobs "…it's not fair, they're not fighting fair cuz I'm a girl…" I am reminded of PT Barnum's comment "…there's sucker born every minute…" with the rejoiner, "…fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me."

Rather than worry about tax returns, what about senate records?

How many bills have Obama, Clinton, and McCain authored that became law? I mean primary author, not one of 50.

How partisan/idepenedent are their voting records?

Hillary listen up it is we the people who want to know what you are hiding. Are you call the people of AMERICA Ken Starr. WERE ARE YOU'RE TAX RETURNS HILLARY !

After millions of $$$ spent during that whole Ken Starr investigation nothing negative was found. The Clinton's will release their tax returns as stated. Give it up Obama..we know nothing about you and your wife. Maybe Ken Starr should investigate Tony Resko and that Million dollar home of yours!!!! I was always a Clinton fan,but my husband was on the fence…I can proudly say that we are a united democratic party family…UNITED for Hillary Clinton as our next President!!!! M.A

She's always sidestepping the issues. The Clintons are dishonest. Always have been. Always will be. Sadly, that is what Americans are looking to elect. What about truth and honesty and being a good person?

You are an absolute fool if you think The Clintons have nothing to hide. There is not a politician alive that does not have skeletons in the closet. The way you people hold Mrs. Clinton on a pedestal makes you wonder. Obama supporters have been accused of being brainwashed and worshipping him its pretty evident the same holds true for Clinton supporters as well.

She will probably get the nomination …but most of you are in for a rude awakening once she does.

What are the Clintons hiding? They should release their tax returns immediately for the public to see. They should not wait till April 15th to do so. Is transparency stupid? Their action reminds me of the series of investigations they went through last time around. America does not want the Clintons in the White House.
Prince George

Since when does releasing tax forms that all other politician's have done during a campaign equate to Ken Starr tactics. Is she trying to play the victim? How presidential is that?

In answer to Kathy in Michigan and Maisie2008, FactCheck.org takes the air out of Peter Paul's claims against the Clintons, proving that the claims are pretty much garbage (not to mention seven years old).

Obama………my man

He is only now starting to point out the hypocrasy of the Hillary campaign. You can't expect him to sit back an continue to smile while the kitchen sink is being thrown at you.

Hillary supporters need to get off the "he's showing his true colors" tip because he's responding in like kind to what the Hillary campaign started.

If you can't stand what you see, move from in front of the mirror!

Maybe Obama should be answering the questions he will not about "Tony" Rezko !!! I think more is to come from this , if there was no more then we would have seen Obamas dealing with it

Public opinion is powerless to the spin that CNN and other media put on every nuance of this democratic race. You make your headlines and define the news and flip flop between who your darling is for the moment. It's really getting tiresome and disheartening. Show some integrity.

Hillary needs to be very careful about bringing up Ken Star. She has so much garbage buried and she should kiss Obama for not bringing any of it up. I wish he would press her a little on her honesty but he is too ethical and moral to do that. She is lucky now, but the Republicans won't be nearly as kind to her.
No more Clinton Bush Clinton. We need new blood and Clinton is the same as Bush. She just wears a different kind of pants.

Where are tax returns, Hillary?
Where are your medical records, Obama?

So I guess the Obama camp felt it was being transparent when they did the back door into Canada……..then attempted to mislead the American voters………then finally admitted.

I guess it was the finally admitting to it that was considered transparent. Same old politics….just by a different name!

Obama is no more transparent than the chair we are all sitting on….get real…his campaign is just full of alot of twists…..nothing more than that!

Ken Starr. Now I remember why no Clinton should be allowed back into the White House. Scandal after scandal after scandal.

Does the Clinton campaign think "they can throw the kitchen sink" at the Obama campaign and not expect the same treatment? The Clinton's started going "negative" and now they're getting mad. The Ken Starr comparison is is just a "smoke screen" to divert the voters from the Clinton's many, many skeletons in their closet. By the way, why hasn't CNN.com updated their readers on the Peter Paul vs. The Clinton's fraud case?

OH happy days, Obama picks up another super delegate today. The attacks continue, 68 convention was a picnic compared to what the 08 convention will look like. Wonder what will be left of the Democratic party for the next 20 years if so many become disenfranchised.

Further deteriorating the party. Thanks a lot. This means McCain wins.

When Obama compare Hillary to someone, you never give for him an article about that. When Hillary fight back you make it a big story. CNN, look at yourself, What are you doing? You dig Clinton and raise Obama. You make me sick and sick. Who are paying you to do that? Obama is not kind of rich to pay for you. Who play negative. It s' you and Obama. You will be paid for all the thing you ve' done. You will.

Obama the new change in politics. YEAH RIGHT.

it ain,t april 15th yet.

I cannot believe there is even a discussion going on about more of Limbaugh's dribble. How is he even relevant to anyone or anything other than those that buy into fear uncertainty and doubt?

If there is nothing to hide, ya-da ya-da ya-da, then by all means release the tax returns soonest. Otherwise it invites negative speculation. Likening the simple call to release tax returns (I thought all candidates do that to support their presidential bid?) to Ken-Star is really side-tracking the issue.

Her CPA's are reviewing it. It's not like Bill hunches over a desktop in some home office using turbo tax. He has to take is time. Releasing any concrete numbers would be reckless until they are completely ready.
DON'T MODERATE, DONT HATE
CLINTON POR VIDA ESE.

Clintonians, every candidate releases their tax returns so that the voters can see how they make their money (since they will be controlling to a large extent how we will be spending ours). Hillary Clinton blasted her Senate opponent for not releasing his tax returns but now it is comparable to Ken Starr for Obama to bring this issue up?

Clearly, Clinton had a taste of victory Tuesday and she's pretty cocky but she isn't going to be able to dine on winning. With that great win in Texas, she will lose 5-9 delegates from Texas to Obama. Good job HONEY!

Answer to Tax Returns? Get the quote right!! One the FORMER foreign advisor said that he hasn't had a red phone moment. HOWEVER, neither Hillary or John have had a red call moment either. Remember, when Hillary's advisors were asked the same question, they couldn't think of ONE situation that was red phone for her. What Barack's advisor said was the Barack had the judgement to pick up the phone, Hillary (voting for the Iraq War and Iran as a terrorist) did not.

How would all you folks like to release your tax returns? I can't see where the tax returns are anybodys business but the IRS.

it was sad to hear obama say after his loss in ohio, texas and rhode island, the it basically didnt matter because he was still ahead in delegate votes. if i were from any one of those states i would have been insulted. i would have felt like he didnt care about me at all but only cared that i could cast a vote. yes it was obvious that he was angry but he should have expected this to happen. why? because hillary has been in the political arena, in one way or another, for over 35 years and so she knows how to play the game. as far as her being a fighter, I WANT AND NEED a fighter to be my president. i dont want someone in the white house who may be afraid to raise their voice and offend. that job is probable left to michelle.

No better way for Obama to take the Resko heat off of him, than to attack Hillary. If there was dirt to be found the Republicans would have found it by now. By God, they spent 8 years looking for it. Obama hasn't seen scrutiny yet.,and already the double dealing NAFTA/CANADA and corruption of Resko have surfaced. Can't wait to see the rest of his character I think squeeky clean, just isn't so.. Don't judge him on the color of his skin, but the content of his Character. Martin Luther King.

Obama is such a phony empty suit. wah wah im feeling the heat now, better make petty attacks on the clintons because i'm a wuss who can't stand up to them or the media, let alone the GOP.

goodbye obama. the bubble has burst. your call for change? we call your bluff.

hillary08.

STAND STRONG FOR CHANGE (OBAMA)

OR

FALL HARD FOR THE SAME (Clinton's)!!!

As Bush has destroyed the GOP so will Hillary, in turn, decimate the Democratic party. If she is nominated, the Dems can kiss independents and moderate repubs as well as the election goodbye. There is only one other more polarizing figure today in politics and that is George W.

Since when do we consider the presidency as an ENTRY-LEVEL POSITION? That is exactly what obama supporters think.

GO HILLARY!!

When are taxes due - April 15, 2008 - Duh!!!!!!

They have always released prior returns around the April 15th date. Please check your history and facts!

What is she hiding? Clinton corruption of course.

There is no excuse for not haveing released your 2005 and 2006 tax returns.

So you need more time to finish your 2007 returns, we understand.

Please! What does this have to do with economic and national security. Can we get back on track here? And where does all of Barack Obama's campaign money come from? I bet we would be surprised if we knew who some of his doners were. All of his biography and people connections still remain a mystery. The release of tax forms seem minor compared to real issues like job security, healthcare, and realizing that we still live in a dangerous world and have to remain prepared. I've voted democrat for years, but I am taking a look at who will keep the country secure and that includes John McCain. Anyone who thinks that national security should be put on a back burner needs to get their heads out of the Obama clouds.

I've never voted on the democratic ticket before and planned to this time because of "change." This doesn't seem like change.

Obama has got to go!! America let's get rid of this pompous, sore loser. Everytime he loses, or whenever Hillary gets applause, his face turns sour. He is a narcissist and megalomaniac…power hungry, ambition driven, and in need of constant praise and attention. For the sake of our country, I just hope he disappears. GO HILLARY!!

The Clinton Campaign shouldn't be casting stones. Hillary's attack on Obama for talking out of both side of his mouth should be directed at herself and her own campaign after disclosures in Ottawa Canada that in fact it was Clinton's own aides who indicated to Ottawa that her promises to renegotiate or cancel NAFTA were not to be taken seriously by Canada. I'm sure that the US and particulary OHIO want to sell to to Canada and to receive secure energy sources from Canada. Clinton has again displayed what a HYPOCRITE she is and how silly and small minded she really can be. Obama was right when he said the silly season was here. Congratulations to Hillary and Ohio for doing their best to ensure the that the best man for the job is elected prseident.
Mike (GO John McCain GO!)

Please understand that he is only holding her to the standard that all of the other candidates have already met.

I am writing this comment to appeal to all Barack supporters.

Clinton camp has been deploying all dirty tactics thus far. The tactic has included an attempt to overthrow voters' well and to seat delegates from two non-contest states. By the rule of DMC, these delegates will not be counted and should not be counted. It will only be fair to other states that follow the rule in the process.

I call for Barack supporters to be unified against this attempt. Once we are organized, we can then voice our opposition to the DMC. If the super-delegates in DMC do not take into account of our opposition, the organization can then boycotting the participation of general election (or abandon the DMC altogether).

CNN should post this message.

I find it interesting that Clinton supporters have no problem with Hillary "drawing distinctions" between herself and Obama through innuendo and negative ads, yet when the table is turned, they accuse of him being negative and a fraud.

I am not Hillary Hater, but I have to ask…are her campaign people the ones drinking hallucinagenic Kool-aid. First we have her saying she and John McCain are qualified but Obama is not…good plan. McCain throw that one back at her and trump her on it…

Now we have her campaign comparing her to Ken Starr, a man who actually succeeded in having Clinton impeached by the house and led to his disbarment from practicing law or holding a Supreme Court position–for what–lying.

Maybe its just me, but I wouldn't throw out the name of the man who proved my husband was a liar to defend myself. Guess they are all dizzy from success.

Does anyone in the Democratic party have the wit to stop this disaster before it consumes the party's chances in the General Election?

What did so many people always say about Hillary Clinton? That, despite her considerable abilities, she's divisive, hypocritical and evasive - well she's proved it yet again.

Anyone remember "It's an honor to be sitting here with Barack Obama"? Would that be the same Barack Obama "whose entire campaign is based on a speech he gave in 2002″, and whom she compared unfavorably with John McCain?

Praetorian says "the jury is still out on Obama" - well, they've returned an unanimous verdict on HDC. Guilty as charged.

Kab: I am sorry that you feel that Obama supporters are better than Obama supporters. What a great way to promote the candidate of unity

Obama has transparency problems of his own (NAFTA). The Ken Starr analogy is apt. He spent millions of taxpayers money to dig up a little dirt, then lost. Obama is spending millions to dig up a little dirt and can only come up with the fact that Hillary has not done something that I have not done this year (filed all my taxes).

By the way Kab, calling Hillary supporters losers… Not a good idea. The candidates are fair game. Personal attacks against supporters is going to make it really hard for either candidate to win in the general.

It is standard for Presidential candidates to release their tax returns to make sure that there are no illegal contributions made under the table. This is the highest office in the nation, and integrity in our Presidency is critical.

Obama has released his returns, so why doesn't she? Unless there is something seedy that she is hiding!!!

I am so tired of both Obama and Clinton supporters saying they will vote for Mc Cain if their candidate isn't nominated.
A vote for Mc Cain is a personal stamp of approval for continuing the war.A vote for Mc Cain ensures there will be more empty chairs around the dining room table at Thanksgiving.
Snap out of it.

Are you telling me that a candidate for the most powerful position in our country can't get her taxes done any sooner? And the wife of the former president can't get her White House schedule released, now? By not pressing those two issues harder, the news media is allowing her to cover some tracks she does not want to be discovered by the public.

The right to keep your tax returns private until full disclosure is required by law–as in the case of a presidential party nominee–is a civil right. Continuing to badger Hillary Clinton on this is a bad move on Obama's part. If there was anything in them worth knowing (that is, illegal), the IRS would have already investigated it. Thus, the only thing that can be gained by this is information that can be spun by the candidate against her. How many posting here, for instance, have any idea about the intricate (and fabulously complex) details of tax law?

I, for one, don't care how much money the Clintons have. Barack Obama and his wife have made almost 2 million dollars in the last two years. That's hardly small potatoes. In terms of transparency, he might try releasing his 2005 and 2006 earmark requests. John McCain will certainly win in the earmark debate.

I can only conclude that if this doesn't get posted, then the CNN writers will be supporters of McCain because Obama will lose the transparency argument against McCain and not to let Obama's campaign know that this is fear-baiting (in the form of "what's she hiding?") is not to let them know just how poor in judgment this badgering is. (Of course, you could just close the comments to this post as well.)

Hillairy is mistaken. Obama is not sidestepping his ability to lead by requesting her to release her taxes and documents as first lady. If she is saying she has the ability tand experience o lead, than prove it rather than talking about it. I want to see in the documents what she did in the white house that makes her better than Obama to lead. Actions do speak louder than words. If she expects Obama to prove his ability to lead, than in the same token she should do the same. All of the canidadates released their taxes so why can't she be placed in the same standards as everyone else. Release the documents about your taxes and time as first lady and let the American people decide if you have the experience to lead which she does not because she has no execuetive experience in creating policy. There is no difference between she and Obama in experience other than her word. I thought she said words don't matter, but action. If she has nothing to hide, release the documents.

Go Hillary. We need somebody battle tested. Hire Obama as your speech writer. One day he will learn that experience and solutions are what really matters. His words seem to only work well amongst the naive youth, who want a poet in the White House. Wait till they see the reality of less money in their wallets, due to his dreams and hope speeches that result into the reality of higher taxes.

OB thugs you're going to be eating the egg on your face when her returns show nothing unusual.

This is a very weak attempt to keep folks from wondering what YOU are hiding!

We've only been exposed to a few of your incredible lies.

Keep running for office and we'll discover the really big ones that will end your Political Activities for good!

You are not leader material at all.

If ordinary american refuse to release his/her tax return, that person may expose herself to some penalties. politiciens should not give wrong signals.
I strongly believe, if hillary was winning as Obama does actually(150 pledged); Obama would have given way for the interest of the party.
Only Obama gets the best chance to reclaim the the power to the republicans in this election 2008.
Superdelegates know it, they can vote only one way if they don' t want to see the democratic party explodes into pieces.

For the record, it is the Clintons who brought back the name Ken Starr. I'm not really sure they want to do that!! Even though Ken Starr went too far, Bill's misdeeds in the White House were definitely a black eye for America.

Now, that being said, why isn't the media asking the Clinton's about their upcoming fraud and corruption trial involving Peter Paul?

Do you Hillary supporters think it is some made up story? Well, the California Supreme Court doesn't seem to think so!

Hilary Clinton needs to be put on blast about her fundraising tactics with Peter Paul. She voted for the war, the new bankruptcy law,the no child left behnd act, her present votes as a senator, her lies abput the 200,000 jobs that she was supposed to bring to New York,and her past taxes, and fundraising tactics.There is so much dirt on the Clinton's that it would take many years to discuss.Obama should take her down because she wants to throw the kitchen sink at him so he should throw the whole kitchen at her.She is so crazy and dirty. Does she really want to get into experience?She has 12 years as first lady in the Arkansas Governor house and 8 years in the white house.She is a second term junior senator in New York. Obama has 8 years in the senate, 15+ years combined as a civil rights attorney ,college professor that teaches national security,3 years as a first term senator from Illinois.If Hilary is so strong why did she vote so badly for major issues?I don't see 35 years experience that she is claiming.I did not know that you could claim your first lady status as experience.I gues it is a double standard when you are a Clinton. I am for a woman winning but not this woman with so much dirty laundrybehind her and her husband.I am for Obama! If he is not the democratic nominee than my vote goes to McCain.

Clintons playing victims again after all mud throwing at Obama? Obama shall dig out all the skeletons from Billary's closet and throw it her! If Obama can be compared to Ken Starr then Hillary is definitely related to Adolf Hitler!

Obama really doesn't want to go this route. What happened to hope and change and a 'new' way of doing politics. Poor Obama, doesn't have a clue…..

The arguement that Clinton should get the nomination because she has won the big states is very very weak. She did win these big Democratic states, but only by small margins. Thats why Obama is leading because he blew her out in 14 states. Does anyone think that Obama will not win Cali and NY over McCain but Clinton will? Thats just not logical.

The fact is Clinton won big states because of name recognition. When the voters get to know Obama, he wins. Thats why he does well in small states. By November Obama will have the name recognition to defeat McCain by and landslide. The non-democrat states he wins will become a part of a new and lasting democratic majority. Look to the future, not the past!

Barak Obama’s Accomplishments:

0. During his years in the senate, pressed the wrong voting button 6 times….thank God he doesn't have the nuke button next to him.

1. Bought a cheap house with free garden, saved 300k.

2. Successfully delayed 15 parking tickets for over 20 years (think how
much gain he could have made investing it)

3. Invented a way to vote on tough issues without jeopardize his political future (voting present, he should patent it)

4. Secured most campaign funding among all candidates from big insurance co.

5. Successfully (for a while) fooled US voters on NAFTA rhetoric.

6. Made people faint in rallies. (repeatable results)

7. Made his wife feel proud of US for the first time.

8. Successfully held on to the subcommittee chair position for over a year without holding any hearings.

Thank you Texas, Ohio, and Rhode Island. You guys gave me the best birthday present I could have possibly received!!! You really made my day. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

YES WE WILL!
Hillary '08

who is looking desperate now, mr hope for change. I knew it, just give him a little more time and his true colors will finally show.

From the very beginning obama is the one that was negative and divisive by villanizing Hillary. He thinks he can hide under the protection of the media and the fact that he may not have "bad political history," but that is just because he hasn't done anything so far.

Obama, this is a race for the President of the US. We are not electing the next church leader. Go preach somewhere else and let the adults take care of our beloved country.

What about Obama's sweet real estate dea in buying his mansion.
What about the previous owners. Can they come back and said that they were cheated. I hope more is disclosed about that "sweet deal"

Oh what a short memory voting Americans are showing by voting Hillary…do you remember all the scandals during the Clinton first run in the White House…White Water, travel department, failed health insurance initiative. Clinton's are notorious for not wanting to give up their financial information…where did the $5M come from? Other candidates have not had a problem giving up their financial information. Do you remember the movie and book Primary Colors…the book by one of their former Secret Service agents….??!!

If we truly expect change in Washington to get things done for the average American citizen, electing John McCain or Hillary Clinton who have lived most of their life in Washington, is not it. They "talk" about Obama's inexperience….he has been in Washington long enough to know it's broken and calling on our American citizens to make a bold vote for new direction!

Michigan/Florida: all candidates…and govenors…knew the rules and consequences…stay tough Howard Dean with your no changes mid-stream…spending money that especially Michigan cannot affortd..is a symptom of everything wrong with the current system. It's another Clinton machine tactic and/or manipulation which again points out the difference in characters between those that abide by the rules and those that do not.

A vote for true change in Washington and the United States world relationships is a vote for Obama 08.

To DC Obama is getting desperate now that the people want to see her tax returns. Her people want to know too!!!

SHOW THE TAX RETURNS HILLARY!!! I AM COUNTING ON YOU TO PROVE THAT YOU AREN'T HIDING ANYTHING. CLEAR THIS CRAP UP SO WE CAN MOVE FORWARD WITHOUT ANY SUPRISES IN THE END.

Remember no one is clean in this world we all at some point have done things that we only want to keep to ourselves. we do not even wish to share with those we are in love with even though we love them to death. Obama or Clinton have their portion, what voters should look for is ability to do the job which as many employers always highlight….."teamwork" if you are unable to work with others how will you perform your task satisfactorily?

After Clinton and Obama tear each other up what will the democratic party be like after August 2008? Are they not aware that EVEN JOHN MACCAIN IS MAKING HISTORY TO BE THE FIRST PRESIDENT OF THE US AT AGE 72 WHEN HE GETS TO THE OFFICE? OR DO THEY THINK HE IS NOT SERIOUS ABOUT MAKING THAT HISTORY?

Hillary will do anything to win.

Btw, all you Latinos rooting for Hillary:
Wait what Bill and Hillary have to say if there ever will be a viable Latino candidate …

Check with your African-American friends.
The African-American community now knows that all this "first black president" talk was just a mirage.

Hillary and Bill will play you the way they played the African-American superdelegates on her side who now look stupid supporting her sleaze campaign.

Go Obama 2008 !

People…People… before you uneducated folks get all in a tizzy about releasing tax returns since its early in the tax season…… remember we are talking about tax returns prior to 2007.

Geez, you would think some people would educate themselves BEFORE they post here…..

I WANT TO SEE TAX RETURNS AND I WANT TO SEE THE DOCMENTS AS FIRST LADY. . WHAT IS SHE HIDING. HER AND SLICK WILLY HAS ALWAYS BEEN SNEEKIE TO ME.

Hillary has been preparing to run for President for the past two years; trust me, there is nothing in her tax returns which would compromise her chances. What I want to know is why Obama is so intent on deflecting questions about NAFTA and Rezko? He is very well known for responding quickly but these questions have been out there for over a week. Is he just hoping they'll go away?

I just saw someone say that 'Obama thats old tactics..".ha ha, real double standards for Mrs. Clinton i guess..and then what about all the anynumber of scandals that the Clintons have been involved..well i guess the moment she opens her mouth the republicans are just going to have a nice time ..beginning with the tax returns..

I just don't get how people can vote for a a person, especially the possible first woman president of the US, who has achieve nothing on her own. How did she get elected to senate? Illegally funded campaign fundraisers (clinton v paul), carpetbagging, over 70% of her fund from outside the state from people who owed favors to her husband. I would have sooo much respect for her if she got to this point in her life without all the help from her president husband. I mean she claims to be a feminist that doesnt conform to the male dominated world, but look at how she got to where she is today. And come on comparing Obama to Ken Starr? They dragged that man through the dirt with a more than likely unlawful smear campaign of their own. this family is despicable and if we as a country want to do better for ourselves and the world we will keep these people and the cronies as far away from the White House as possible. M

I think the Clinton Camp should clean up their act. Obama has displayed integrity throughout this campaign and shows to me that he is the better candidate he does not lower himself to mud slinging as the Clinton camp has. I will vote McCain before I vote for mud slinging woman that has no integrity!!!!!!!!!!
FYI I will be speaking at the DAR meeting this weekend and will most definitely give my opinion of the underhanded ways of Hillary Clinton she apparently will do anything to win the election and I do not want a person of this low of character in the White Hou
