CNN

Samantha and Obama – Like with Like

You Tube video: hillary uncensored. Hillary backers get informed, you may actually change your mind!!!

Shame on you Obama supporters. What happened to the high ground you all claimed was your territory. This blog reads like u have morfed into a bunch of schoolyard name callers yourselves.

Hillary and her supporters are beginning to look better and better just by behaving like adults rather than tantruming brats. Stop the hatred!

This is just the kind of nasty tone that pushes independents like me to finnally stand up and vote for Hillary for President!!!

SOUNDS LIKE SOME OF OBAMAS STAFF ARE LIKE HIM.. INEXPERIENCED TO RUN THIS COUNTRY. HOW COME OBAMA SAYS HE'S AGAINST THE WAR IN IRAQ, BUT VOTES THE SAME AS HILLARY TO FUND T HE TROOPS.. EITHER HE IS FOR THE WAR OR AGAINST IT. SOUNDS LIKE MORE POLITICAL SPIN TO ME...GO HILLARY

I agree with what Sharon said... somebody should ask Hillary whether her plan is set in stone... She will say anything to get into office... Why CNN are you allowing Clinton to run your new room?

Howard Wolfson is running around loose while Barack Obama’s top Adviser resigned due to a misstatement. Wolfson is no better as he accused Senator Barack Obama’s actions as that of Ken Starr’s. Why they wanna go there we don’t know but it looks like it’s a politically motivated attempt to play the victim card as that was Hillary’s role in the Lewinsky-Bill Clinton era. Howard Wolfson should resign! His misstatements about Senator Obama are intolerable. Justice delayed, is justice denied!

Actually, what Power said about Iraq is consistent with what Obama has said, as well as what Hillary Clinton and John Edwards have said, in past debates.

This is somewhat of a non-issue, considering that Clinton herself has made similar Iraq comments.

Federal archivists at the Clinton Presidential Library are blocking the release of hundreds of pages of White House papers on pardons that the former president approved, including clemency for fugitive commodities trader Marc Rich.
The archivists' decision, based on guidance provided by Bill Clinton that restricts the disclosure of advice he received from aides, prevents public scrutiny of documents that would shed light on how he decided which pardons to approve from among hundreds of requests.

Obama's chief strategist, David Axelrod, told reporters in a conference call in which he specifically cited the slow release records from the Clinton library. "If she's not willing to be open with (voters) on these issues now, why would she be open as president?"

How bout asking HRC to denounce and reject Gov Rendell of PA as he rallied and spoke favorably of Louis Farrakhan at a rally in Philly when he was mayor.
Billary/McCain
That's where her tricks are leading to.
Oh and dude in Austin, I'm with you, I wish I had her number to call her at 3am too....

I still don't understand the whole uproar over Powers' statement which referred to Hillary as a "monster".

If we look up the definition of monster, here are a couple of definitions:
1. any creature so ugly or monstrous as to frighten people
2. a person who excites horror by wickedness, cruelty, etc.
3. a cruel wicked and inhuman person

Looks to me like Powers was just calling a spade a spade!

I remember when the press was saying that Hillary had gone to far with her nagative attacks on Obama, and then came super Tuesday 2. Now everone is staying he should attack back. This is why in the end he will win! Taking the hi road is on best from him it will make her look silly.

Since I actually paid attention to all the debates that Hillary demanded, I know that he has "always" said he will be just as careful coming out as Bush was "careless" going in. Which means he will "listen" to the millitary people about how to make this happen. I would hate to think that he thought he could do this "without" getting information from the military.

Maybe this is why the media keeps calling Hillary supporters "uneducated"

Hillary is definitely a hard core, old school Polititian playing dirty and stooping to any level to win. I do hope the rest of America do NOT get carried away with all the negative campaigning that Clinton is stooping too, like the people of Ohio & Texas did! I heard someone saying that "good guys finish last". Please please let me that is NOT true. Obama may not be perfect but he id DEFINITELY a true gentleman and we should give him a chance to try and bring in change in the way politics in handled in the US... I know is it very impolite to call someone "monster" but what do we call a person who is cunning, plays dirty, cheats, using disgusting tactics to win. I believe a person should come up in life by showing his true potential (on merit) or what he / she is capable of and NOT by putting the competitor down.

Chris you are absolutely right about the number of voters in this country that are intellectually lazy. I just had a conversation with a co-worker who expressed her admiration for Sen Obama but is doubtful of supporting him because he is a closet muslim and doesnt even say the pledge of allegiance (with his hand on his heart)!!

DO THE MATHS "UNEDUCATED" BILLARY VOTERS!

BILLARY CAN TWIST AND SPIN AND LIE AND BE A MONSTER ALL SHE WANTS, BUT THE MATHS IS AGAINST BILLARY!

EVEN IF BILLARY WINS THE REMAINING 11 CONTEST BY 20% (WHICH WILL NEVER HAPPEN IN THIS LIFETIME), OBAMA WILL STILL BE LEADING WITH THE MOST PLEDGED DELEGATE AND ONLY NEED 100 SUPERDELEGATE TO CLINCH THE NOMINATION!

SO THIS GAME IS OVER BILLARY. CUSS AND SPIN ALL YOU WANT; YOU WILL ALWAYS REMAIN A MONSTER!!!!

VOTE OBAMA – THE RIGHT CHOICE, THE UNITER!!!!

For all Obama's supporters, did you all forget how John Kerry lost presidential election four years ago? – Flop Flip

It is so stupid to ask Clinton's tax return since it is not even April 15. I am more interested in learing:

What's Obama's tax return with Ruzko's contribution?
How much did he pay for the land/property bought from Ruzko?
What is his real Iraq plan?
What is his real NAFT plan?

Stop blaming Hillary for all the stupid moves made by Obama and his campaign. They are kids playing cool...

Hillary'08!

Obama! Don't be afraid to let it show – your true colors.

Can't hide behind rhetorics anymore. The Obama phenomenon is crumbling down – slowly but shortly.

hillery, you keep saying you are an expert, youn weren't and expert to me when you ran for congress. what makes you and expert in world
policies,i thought bill was running the counrty. you need to stop with
the mud slinging,back biting. the miore you say the more you are turning people off. sound like you are a closet raciest to me. you done
and said everything except call obama out of his name. lets face it is
is smart, intelligent, s good speaker, knowledble on any subject and
he out shines you in everyway. he is a total gentleman. you are a wining child who if you cant have your way you cry . but yet youn are the one who started the warm of words and put your own ladyship in question. stick to the facts,stop playing games with the american people some of us can see right through you. your smart remarks towards mr obama on sln,david letterman,at rallies is uncalled for

Obama

1) has NO CHARACTER
2) has NO INTEGRITY
3) has NO PLANS
4) has NO EXPERIENCE
5) is ALL TALK
6) plays the RACE CARD
7) is a WHINIER
speaks of change .. but changes his stances faster than a CHAMELEON
9) is DIVISIVE
10) and finally a FRAUD

since CNN has started working for the Clintons Im sure this wont get posted but I will say it anyway

Why isnt Clintons lies in NAFTA-gate being given more coverage? She blatantly sabotaged and manipulated the Ohio and Texas voters (sorry Ohio, you guys were duped). This woman will do anything to win. I guess she won't care about my opinion b/c I dont live in California, NY or any of what she refers to as the "important" states. I have been a voting democrat for over 20 years. As a 47 year old white woman, I should be voting for HIllary according to your lopsided media demographic polls. But Im not. If Hillary is on the ticket I will be voting for McCain.
Shame on YOU HRC!

MMMMmmmmmm. Obama says one thing in public and another behind closed doors or to his big-bucks backers. Not a person to trust with the presidency.
Sounds like something Bush and Cheney would do!

Here's the best case scenario: Clinton wins the Democratic nomination!! ALL of the Obama supporters either DO NOT vote in the fall, or VOTE FO MCCAIN, or VOTE FOR NADER!! Or, perhaps write his name into the ballot!! END RESULT: McCain WINS!! POOR BILLARY!! The only phone you will here at 3:00 in the morning will be that of Bill calling you to pick him up at the latest "hitching post"!!!!!
At this point the Democratic Party has been completely destroyed!!
MARK MY WORDS!! THIS WILL BE THE REALITY!!

Why is it that every insignificant thing that Hillary chooses to "pounce" on, becomes a significant news story? We hear plenty about Rezko, but why aren't we seeing anything in the Ticker about Bill Clinton's ties (and huge monetary gains) from a failing Chinese internet company, founded by a FELON? Perhaps because there's really no favorable light in which to spin that?

Obama's position has always been extremely clear on this- that he will be as careful getting out as Bush and McCain and yes, Clinton, were careless getting in. He will begin redeployment exactly as he outlines specifically in his plan, but if circumstances change drastically, that plan will may have to be altered Essentially, he will use the good judgement he displayed in opposing the war, even when it was unpopular and could have cost him his senate bid, and his number one prioroty will be to get us out of that disaster as it has always been. Remember who drove that bus into the ditch. Hillary was right there with her pedal to the metal. This is one area she has no standing or credibility on whatsoever. She did not even bother to read the intel report. I never thought I'd say this because my plan has always been to vote democratic no matter who is on the ticket, but her unscrupulous behavior of late has made it impossible for me to support her. Dems may well lose in November, and she will go down in history as the worst thing to happen to American government since GWBush.

I applaud Barack for his integrity in trying to run a clean race... but maaaaaaaan, if Hillary had been going up against somebody willing to stoop as low as she does, she would be buried in so much mud it would be called a swamp!

Anybody catching the news about Bill Clinton getting a $700,000 kickback on some shady investments? Could this be why they don't want to release those 2006 tax returns? Granted I'll give you that Clinton is like the average American waiting to file the 2007 at the last minute but um... surely 2000-2006 has been filed already.

Yes, I do want to know where she is getting her money from because I don't want a politician in office, especially running our country, willing to sell to the highest shady bidder!

That's it. I'm now a Republican.

Here we go again.
C'mon Hillary, get some new material. You're boring us.

As a lifelong Democrat I support Obama. We need fresh ideas, fresh views and fresh perspective. We also need someone who has values, character and integrity. Clinton is a hypocrite, a liar, and has proven that she will do and say anything to get back into the White House. Be careful what you wish for Hillary. If she wins, I will not vote in that race.

Why isnt CNN and true Hillary Democrats demanding that Wolfson step down from the Clinton campaign for calling Obama "Ken Starr".

Now there's a story CNN since you seem to have run out of them....
Oh and nice how you stopped reporting on the mysterious halt in the Texas caucus count. Interesting.

Is this going to be like New Mexico, when the Clinton official took home three boxes of ballots then returned with them the next day to have them counted?

Of course CNN didnt have time to report that but the New Mexico news did. This Independent is going back to watching FOX NEWS. CNN has seriously dropped downhill!

Talk about hypocrites. This is clearly one camp vs. the other. Nobody is right people. Obama and Clinton are each to blame, wait, it's their campaign that is to blame for digging this stuff up. Both are playing hard-ball, and just because she's a woman does not make her a monster. The Obama supporters now complain when anything negative comes out about him, but sure, we don't call him catty and a whiner. Yet, for the past several months, most of the media was down on Hillary (yes, it's true – there are stats on this one), but of course that's okay. Where were you then? Oh that's right, you were riding the Obama HOPE wave. Just keep your comments to yourselves. The only way this thing is going down is a dream ticket. Get used to it. It's already been decided. Hillary Prez./Obama V-Prez.

Let's face it. If Obama gets the nomination we might as well just give it to Mc Cain. Clinton is the only one who can fight and beat the Republicans. If he thinks Clinton is a dirty fighter wait till the Republicans have their way with him. I hope we don't have to see it.

Go Hillary!!! Madame President!!

It's Obama and his people that keep digging themselves deeper and deeper into a hole. Obama needs to get a grip on his staff.

She is a monster. Look at her! How in the world can she say she's considering Obama as a running mate and she continues to dig her claws into him at every turn. I wish I could call at 3 am too and let her know what I think.

I encourage the Obama campaign to continue on in the manner that they began. Run a campaign that focuses on the issues. Leave the name calling and bickering to Hillary Clinton. Rise above, continue to inspire, continue to embrace change, continue to encourage us to hope. Don't lose sight of the BIG PICTURE.

Obama 08

Frank:

Why would Obama, who has won more states and delegates and (oh yeah) votes, accept the veep nod from Hillary.

Wow......Obama's losses must have not sat well with his remaining supporters.....you all seem a little shaken, frustrated, and confused

POOR HILLARY IS OUT OF CONTROL.

The American people are not stupid. Keep that in mind.

YOUR OWN WORDS WILL HUNT YOU DOWN

Hillary will now hint every day that Obama could be her VP..this is the same technique she tried before the primaries...."I am the inevitable candidate..no need to vote....I deserve it" Now even though she is loosing she is starting to pick HER VP. Please people, don't fall for this. The Clintons are the masters of the big lie!

Actually I agree Hillary is behaving like a monster.

Joe from Boston you are exactly right. Hillary has always said that she would consult with her joint chiefs of staff before making any final decisions about withdrawal. Obama has never publicly said this and sometimes scrutinizing Hillary on this one issue. So I think that Obama is talking out of both sides of the mouth.

She does the mash...
..the MONSTER mash...

I didn't think it were possible but the more this witch talks, the more chance for a McCain presidency – which as a Repiblican, I'd be fine with.

If that's the case, Democrats, you should tar & feather your party "leadership". This one was yours to lose.

Why is Powers resigning? Everything she said makes sense to all but Hillary of course. The woman is a monster.
Obama (by the way the monster would have too but Lord forbid) will first need to uncover all the Bush and Chiney's hidden secrets before he can even know where to start. Can you imagine what is awaitng to be revealed to Americans once a new president walks into that white house?
So Powers has nothing to appologize for especially when Hillary is known to be nothing but a monster. The only thing getting uglier than her politics is her face.

And this is a woman who is supposed to bring the country together? Give me a break. She continues to alienate people, twisting the truth, throwing out half truths and making insinuations without knowing the facts.

I really hope the American people can see through her. It's all about the power and she will do anything to get to the top (including staying with her husband who committed infidelity more than once).

It's apparent however, that many Americans can not see that she is a divisive figure. I see some comments that Obama can give a good speech. It is more than that. You need someone in the Presidency who can inspire people, persuade people and bring them together. And Senator Obama has done and can do it. Hillary just seems to make backroom deals, promises she can't keep, and oh yeah, attacks based on very little. I have seen her deceive but I have not seen her inspire.

Besides, if she gets the Presidency, it will be Bill calling the shots anyway. Once again, Washington will be without any sense of integrity and America's stature or regard in the global community will continue to diminish.

If Hillary gets the nomination, John McCain is more than capable. At least he is a person with integrity and honor.

GOBAMA!!

Obama is just saying things to get elected. He will do a major bait and switch and now it is coming to the light. You Obamabots still refuse to believe that you Golden Boy is not walking on water, and may be a liar just like the others.

AMERICAN IS SLOWLY WAKING UP TO REALITY THAT WE ARE NOT READY FOR FRIED CHICKEN AND WATERMELON IN THE WHITE HOUSE.

Click here: AIM Report: Hillary Clinton’s Biggest Cover-Ups

OH NOES! Obama isn't going to blindly follow a path to it's conclusion like President Bush! He must be a liar for wanting to be able to change a strategy if the situation changes.

Wait, he didn't say it? Someone who is no longer with his campaign said it? Wow, now it's even truer than before. Thank goodness Hillary is there to tell us that she will do exactly what she says she will do, nevermind the consequences.

When Hillary makes this lame charges why isnt we dont see a report on Obama's response?

To all of naive Obama supporters, you don't think that this is exactly the same thing that Obama would do if it is has been Hillary – oh that's right, he will have his minions do the job and claim that he has nothing to do with it and it is simply a "bonehead" decision to get involved.

Wake up, this is the really life and the truth is coming out every day on Obama who is empty and full of rhetoric!

Yes, We can (LOSE)!

Hillary '08

Hillary you are not mature enough to command this country... Your behavior = child behavior.
Go OBAMA 08!!!

If that's the first time Hillary Clinton has been called a monster in her lifetime, maybe she does need to get out the race. Surely she's been called worse in her life. Why do we have to keep up this pettiness? The Democrats have to win the White House back, and we need to get it together before we blow our opportunity.

Candidate Clinton has already divided the Democratic Party and would divide the nation, if a miracle is performed, and she is elected President.

She won't win in 08 though because she has already ticked off enough Obama supporters that we will not vote for her and may even vote for McCain to make sure that she doesn't win. Her nasty politics will backfire!

Sadly, it seems that much like the "unsinkable" titanic. The Democrats are finding a way to sink their bid for the Presidency. At the beginning of the primary season the Democrats held the moral high ground in every regard for the Presidency. Now slowly but surely they are finding a way through sniping and misleading comments to give the Presidency to the Republicans. Whatever happened to a "can do" attitude. We live in a world of "can't do," and as much as Democrats tried to make their party different at the beginning of this process they have found a way to regress to the days of the past. I am troubled that a candidate as refreshing as Obama can be dragged through the mud by his own party's primary. Will Washington ever change? I doubt it. It makes me sad to know that no one (seemingly) represents real Americans and their wishes. I think we should vote everyone out and start over. Here is to true "Jeffersonian Politics"

There's no reason for Obama to defend himself against this. Of course he'll consult with the military in 2009. That only makes perfect sense.

Clinton is ridiculous and grasping at anything to try to get her win

Monster!!!

Hillary is a monster. CNN why don't you blast the facts about Hillary being implicated with the NAFTA scheme, and the fact that another Clinton courtdate is pending right around the time of the general election (due to their finances). Why don't you give Obama an article each time you give Hillary one. CNN and Hillary SUCKS!!!!

Clinton gets to a new low everyday just to win!!!

With this NEGATIVE ATTACKS from the Clinton Campaign and this brew-haha about the do-overs in Michigan and Florida is REALLY beginning to look like politics as usual..... When can we just discuss the ISSUES, Pick a Candidate, and move on from there? ALL Politicians are JANKY at some level, NOT ONE IS WITHOUT some questionable mess in their past. As for the Do-Overs....... I'm with you Cafferty..... THE GOVERNORS should have never signed the BILLS

I believe she also said before she implemented her 60 day plan to start withdrawing she would first consult those on the ground, etc as she wants to withdraw safely.

No different than what Barack or Powers has said.

God she better read her own debate transcripts before she opens her stupid mouth!!

Hillary has stated a clear position on Iraq that she would meet with her secretary of defense and the generals on day 1 to make a determination on next steps. Ideally this would involve a phased troop withdrawal or re-deployment. That is her stated position so please disregard the ignorant rantings of the "Obama-potheads." Obama is just now coming into the light and as the returns from tuesday show... late deciders are breaking to Clinton. Has anyone noticed the continuing rise in the PA polls for Clinton and the shrinking margin in NC for Obama (was +14, down to +8). His campaign is crumbling just like their paper nominee... the house falls apart when there is no foundation people. Obama-heads: you can now go back to your crack pipes, pimps and johns.... along with your drugged out, terrorist loving, candidate...... ooooohhhhhhbama!

Come Hillary, get real! Of course one has to adjust the plan according to the situation on the ground, not doing so will be Stupid. We would like to elect a president who's smart and realistic, not stupid.

And come back to you Hillary Clinton, why did you vote for the war to get us into this mess at first place? And now because you are trying to be elected president, you want to go back to change your vote? Is it because your were stupid enough to vote for it? Why don't you STICK with your decision when you first voted for it? Who's the real deceiving one?

The CNN blogs are a great place to bash Hillary. You Obama supporters can continue to delude yourselves into thinking that you represent the majority of Americans. You also seem to believe everything you read on the internet is true. Why don't you try reading realclearpolitics.com to get both sides of the issues instead of the pro Obama crap you read on CNN and MSNBC. They actually have thought provoking and intelligent articles there.

Will somebody at CNN PLEASE cover the 1 million personalities of Hillary Clinton?!?!?! Was she not encouraging a Joint Ticket a few hours ago in Mississippi and now stepping to a Microphone to denounce and spin more of Obama's policy? Which does she really want? Can someone PLEASE cover this and start asking her these questions and bring to the public how often her opinion changes whenever the situation suits her best.

Sen. Monster at it again. Can she get any more divisive? I always said I'd support her if she became the Democratic nominee. Now, she just scares me. Electing her would lead to four more years of gridlock . . . great.

And as for those comments by Ms. Power, Sen. Obama stated in at least one of the debates that he would do what was best to protect our troops. Why wouldn't a president listen to advice from experts? Of course, Hillary likes to make up her mind and then just shove it down everyone's throat, but someone with the intelligence of Obama knows that's not the way to reach a solution.

Maybe she should focus on her flip-flop on NAFTA or explain the math behind her alleged "35 years of public service." I'm so tired of her win-at-all costs mentality. Despite her experience (which is no greater than Obama's) and perceived intelligence, I think she's just not equipped to bring this country together and be a leader. All she can do is divide.

The lady is making herelf unlikable more and more...I had lot of esteem about her...but she is losing it...she is just too much for herself...I don't think this attitude will serve americans..this is too much of herself..it is all about HER....

This is NOT the first time I have heard that Obama will not do what he promised in the campaign as far as removing troops from Iraq immediately. Now there is confirmation from one of his "former" staff members (made before she "resigned"). Who is Obama trying to kid here about running an honest campaign? I knew there was something not right – wink to the Canadians about NAFTA, lie to the people about Iraq. Buyers remorse?

Hillary '08

Frank, you're an idiot...this is hicks need stop voting for hillary..so is giving the election to McCain

"Monster" is one of the kinder tags I've heard – the real issue here is the BBC Hard Talk interview and the 'we can't make a committment now...' on leaving Iraq comment. Ask Obama about that, not about the name calling.

Hillary is a monster. She is trying everything to scare voters. She needs to stay on her message and all to release her tax and white documents that she claims experience on.

She is so scandelous!!

all you sick fools supporting obama .. read the article that cnn has published fully. It says clearly that it was Obama's adviser who spoke to BBC Hardtalk and discussed about their iraq plans, it wasnt clinton.

For all what the exit polls show that obama supports are educated and wealthy ... but from where i stand, you are stupid and poor in common sense.

the real hardworking people, the blue-collared workers, the ones whose sweat runs and built america will decide who will be the nominee and not you Obamabots who sit in their air conditioned rooms earning fat cheques.

please read though the whole article before you decide to comment on it .

I really like hillary and obama when they agree. We as Americans have to stop all back biting and wake up that this economy is in trouble. We have to be united in battling the woes on wall street and the mortgage mess. The government report lost of jobs again for the seconf straight month.

There is no way in hell I will vote for HRC if she makes it to November. I have absolutely lost all respect I had for her.

As a middle aged white female, life long liberal, feminist and democrat, all I can say is that Hillary IS a monster, unethical and immoral. She'll do anything to win including destroying anyone who gets in her way. If you want a preview of things to come under Hillary just look at her behavior the last few weeks and through all of the Clinton Administration. She doesn't want to serve the nation, she just wants to WIN. We will ALL pay a dear, dark price if she does.

It has become great pastime for people to just bash Hillary.
I say " Go...Hillary'

So the Obama people want to make Hillary look bad. I could just imagine what would happen if it where the other way around they would be crying and whining till 2012. CNN would report on it for days.
Hillary just ignored the stupid remark and got to the more important thing like Obamas lies about how he is going to handle Iraq. Look how you all cry HA HA HA

Billary needs to give it a rest I think America has had enough of the Clinton politics and as a country we need the change that Barack is going to give us Go Obama!

"I for one do not believe that imitating Ken Starr is the way to win a Democratic primary election for president. But perhaps that theory will be tested," he said.

By raising Starr's name, Wolfson revived memories of the investigation that led to former President Clinton's impeachment. But many Democrats feel the Starr investigation was politically motivated, and injecting Starr into the debate is one more way for Clinton to depict herself as a victim of enemies out to get her. She's already complained recently about the media being against her.

So Hillary, when is Wolfson resigning?

With that statement, "No, I don't think so," Clinton said. "I am committed to beginning a withdrawal within 60 days. I have said that consistently” you have just shown how inexperience you are when come to Iraq. You don’t want to contact the military personal on the ground. That is just plain reckless. More ammunition for McCain should you win. No one knows what going to happen with in the next few months. You have to be flexible when it comes to withdrawing troop from Iraq. With that statement show how inexperience you are that you don’t want to consider what you military advisor might say. Just withdraw, I don’t know about that, you must thing about what you are going to say before you decide to attack another candidate, it could hurt you in the general election. This is just reckless, trying to capitalize on truthful information. You have to contact the military advisor before you withdraw troop from Iraq, that’s just the fact, it is in your own plan. Get with program!!

Obama 08

NAFTAGATE. THe Clinton campaign contacted the Canadian governement. Go to Youtube..the reports are everywhere EXCEPT CNN. What gives. I can betcha this comment wont get past the moderators.

So they got the anit-war people all fired up because they were going to withdraw the troops from Iraq. Obama said he would do it immediately and HIllary said she would do it within the first 60 days.

Now it depends on conditions in Iraq. Same old thing just to get the votes. They need to go on the program " To Tell the Truth". and see how many answers they get right. Neither one of them will make it throught the first 5 questions.

How deliciously monstrous of her!
Is the mudslinging graduating to the slinging of another medium usually reserved to certain primates?
Shhhh... Can you hear Johnny giggling in the background?

Just figured out where Obama got his Campaign slogan "YES WE CAN" I sat down with my daughter to watch t.v. and realized he probably did the same thing, when Bob The Builder came on! Probably got most of his campaign ideas that day, We can Fix it Yes We Can... build some bridges, learn to work together, if it's inspiration you want just do what Obama did and watch Bob The Builder!!

People, do you know how much dirt is under Hillar's bed? If you would only know, you would not want to even look in her direction.

Worst case scenario; Obama lied about NAFTA(Economic), now we again found out that he lied about IRAQ (Security), We already know his Health Care doesn't work for America, How about REZKO scandal?, Plagriarist and by God how much more scandals he will bring to the table. How in the heck America elect a Presidential candidate who continues to lie to the American people?
Hillary Clinton is the CHANGE america has been longing for! Elect
Sen. Clinton for America's sake!

It seems to me that Obama's position of shooting for full troop reduction in 16 months but having the forethought to realize that that goal might not be met dependent on conditions in Iraq is exactly the kind of sound judgement Obama has displayed from the beginning. The goal, obviously, is to get out of a counter-insurgency (which we have never won), but the worst case scenario is a colapse of the fledgling Iraqi government with a totalitarian regime a la the Taliban taking its place. And some troops will have to stay behind in Iraq for counter-terrorism missions, which is all our military should be involved in in the first place.
So what is Senator Clinton harping about?

Actually, the war to remove Saddam from power was done very successfully. It's the rebuilding phase that was the foul up.

Obama supporters might be well served to actually study issues rather than pretending to be informed when they actually know nothing at all.

WHAT ALL THE RUCCUS IS ABOUT? I understand that the OBAMA camp don't need the distraction. I was a Clinto supporter prior the Ohio-Texas. It is evident that the CLINTON'S created the OBAMA NANFTA issue in Canada and then use the ideal entrapment scenerio to then turn around and use it as a dirty "BOMB". Clinton is indeed a MONSTER and I now know what the REPUBLICANS knew in the '90! Clinton, her campaign and especially the DEMOCRATS must be careful. I am a Soldier and there is no way myself or anyone else will vote for Hillary if this election continues in the gutter. Her use of gutter politics, which she said is the fun part should have been left to use against the Republicans. Hillary is so power hungry that her startegy is to bloody OBAMA so that even if he beat her, he can't win the Presidency, that is the ultimate betrayal to Democrats. IF HILLARY CLINTON is the nominee, myself and 90% of OBAMA supporters and 85% of the the "BLACK VOTERS" will VOTE MCCAIN, out of disgust. For all the negative campaigning she is doing and her supporters (Governors, Senators, Congress Reps) are all insisting it will unify the us the Dems in November. It is the BUSH tactic of not been honest, Hillary is the next Bush and OBAMA must do well to link her and Bill to Bush, as well as MCCAIN. It is time to set the RECORD straight, HILLARY IS A MONSTER!

What Happened to COMMERCE SECTRETARY RON BROWN?

WHAT HAPPENED TO VINCE FOSTER?

WHERE IS THE TAX RECORDS?

WE NEED CHANGE WE CANNOT HAVE ANOTHER 4 YEARS OF THE DISTRUCTIVE POLITICS OF THE 90'S. THE CLINTONS ARE RESPONSIBILE FOR THE DIVISIVE POLITICS OF TODAY.

MAYBE LAURA BUSH WILL ALL HER EXPERIENCE AS FIRST LADY SHOULD RUN AGAINST HILLARY? JOKE- YES YOU GOT MY POINT!

DEMOCRATS MUST UNIFY ON OBAMA, HILLARY IS A POWEDER KEG

It's funny. I have been watching CNN and I hardly hear about the "monster" comment!! Imagine Clinton Advisor saying Obama "Monster" to Obama. You would have heard it over and over again. Go Hillary!!!! I think you are a champion, not a monster!!!!

"No, I don't think so," Clinton said. "I am committed to beginning a withdrawal within 60 days. I have said that consistently."

Hillary starts to sound more and more like a monster and a foolish one. She knows nothing about being the commander-in-chief.
She is all talks about her qualifications and 35 years of useless experience.

Prof. Power should not have resigned for telling the truth.

Just words Just words.
No truth, no trust
Just word Just word.
America deserve better.
No to Boama

lol michelle, I think you may be right.

I personally have had just about enough of this two-faced, bipolar, maudlin theatric, hypocritical "monster".

Hillary is my gurl.

Hillary all the way. 08

Was she speaking for Sen. Obama? if she was then Obama is deceivng the votes.

Hey CNN why aren't you covering this: Washington Times newspaper online is reporting a $700,000 windfall Bill Clinton received in dealings with Armand Rousso who was recently convicted in some shady dealings. Check out Washington Times online.

And what about Peter Paul vs Clinton. Unlike the Rezko trial that didn't list Obama as a witness – the Clintons (including Chelsea) are listed as witnesses.

I thought I'd try to get a word in... But the mods don't seem to like what I have to say. It makes me sick to even think about this lier even being able to think about the whitehouse.... Besides..... They just got thier china collection back togather after bill and herself left the whitehouse the first time....

Hillary is so full of it. I couldn't bear to listen to her beyond this election. Please vote for Obama and send her home to New York. Then we can get on the general election: McCain vs. Obama.

Democrats need to act quickly and remove hillary from this race. Republicans like me will be switching back to Mcain is she is allowed to stay in this process for much longer.

Somebody get Al Gore and John Edwards to come out for Obama before it's to late.

It's so funny to see all the "typical CNN viewers/Obama Supporters" get mad at Hillary....I love it!

I am going bonkers with the Obama supporters saying they will vote for McCain if Clinton wins and vice-versa–Clinton supporters saying they will back McCain before they vote for Obama. Are you CRAZY?? Clinton and Obama hold similar policies, will hire similar people and, in the end, will get similar types of things done. McCain has swallowed and supported Bush II hook line and sinker–it will be more of the same. I support whichever DEMOCRAT wins the nomination–EITHER will make daily life better for the majority of people! THere is a huge difference between the values of these two parties and DEMOCRATS are better for the everyday lives of MOST people.

Monter, nutcase, multiple personalities, all she does is whine and moan and make statements she can't back up. The only reason she's getting away with it is that Barack is trying to keep things civil...but boy, McCain sure won't...they will dredge up every last thing that they can find (and there's a million) and pound her with it. Funny how the worst thing they can find on Barack are comments made by advisors and tenuous links to other politicians. And CNN, where is your comment on the fact that Rezco has donated MORE money to Clinton than to Barack (and she hasn't given it back??!)

At any hour of the day, I would rather he answer the phone...he'll actually pay attention to all sides of the issues and make an informed decision. Clinton, like Bush, has her opinions, and if you don't agree...you are the enemy...who needs 4 more years of that?!?!

Dear Clinton News Network:

Why have there not been any stories on the Canadian government and CATV publicly apologizing for the Obama NAFTA fabrication AND the fact that Clinton's camp was the first to discuss the NAFTA rhetoric with Canada? I haven't found a single mention yet.

It sounds to me that Powers was "VOICING HER OWN OPINION" and not that of Obama's. It is silly how things get spun in so many off the wall directions. Of course this is "POLITICS" Hillary needs to graciously accept the appologies rendered and leave it alone. It is obvious that Powers was voicing her opinion. Obama on the other hand needs to gain better control of his paid as well as unpaid staff. They have no business talking for Obama with out his approval, he also if necessary he needs to give them talking points to cover and that is it. Nothing more or less.

No matter how it is spun by the news media this is nothing but pure silly politics.

SHAME ON YOU HILLARY CLINTON.

YOU ARE DESTROYING THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY.

SHAME ON YOU HILLARY CLINTON.

You say and do anything just to win.

Just as you were at Walmart for 6 years, you and Walmart called the Union Workers "blood sucking parasites". How evil.
You don't even admit to have dealt and been so close to Peter Paul.

SHAME ON YOU HILLARY CLINTON.

I think the Republicans will have the last laugh and carry the White House in November. Clinton will make sure if she doesn't get the nomination Obama won't win the White House either. Even if she does get the nomination McCain will win anyway . The only way democrats can take the white house is to unite with Obama.

Obama doing what he does best, TALK.

The Irak thing if really getting a lot of people fed up. It doesn't hold water since Irak is Bush's baby and no one else's.

Hillary lived at the side of President Clinton for 8 years, learned, and even was involved in foreign policy. Obama can't make the same claim!

ON TO VICTORY HILLARY!!! THERE IS NO STOPPING YOU NOW!!!

Again Hillary is taking things and twisting them to her advantage. Of course, anyone in office will have to react to the situation in Iraq and begin withdrawal in a sensible fashion. Anyone who thinks that the next President will take office and pull all troops out is naive. Why fault Obama for having common sense and working intelligently with the situation at hand? Hillary is behaving like an egotistical brat who will do or say anything to get what she wants.

p.s. why isn't anyone talking about the Peter Paul fundraising scandal???? Hill at her finest.

to sum up the difference b/w Obama and Clinton, simply consider this. regarding Power's Iraq comments outlined in this article, i am more than confident that had the "shoe been on the other foot" and Clinton had made this comment, Obama would have agreed that it is the responsible thing to do and he potentially would have even commended her for the insight. in stark contrast, Clinton's response is, "...to accuse Obama of deceiving voters. " irrespective of the fact that her "....plan also calls for a high-level meeting with military and intelligence advisers upon entering office to evaluate the situation on the ground and strategize about how best to withdraw troops from the country."

Hillary is a monster and the Queen of deceit. She has managed to divide voters with fear, smear and down right lies. That is her legacy!

The truth will set you free!

Whereas Ms Power' comments were unfortunate...they were human and quite frankly what most Americans have been thinking. A more diplomatic argument might be...are there any boundaries within the Clinton campaign and is winning worth compromising your integrity?

Of course we all know the answer to that. Look no further than Clinton putting McCain ahead of Obama on key issues-how shameful This is the end of the road for her and it's not flattering. She now has more attorneys working for her than advisors hatching all sorts of plans to "steal" this election from Obama.

After being inspired for the first time...yes in my "lifetime" (at age 44) by the prospect of an actual shift in thinking and business-as-usual I am once again disgusted by the politics of politics.

Hilary, like her husband, is a professional politician who is...yes the more experienced "politician" however not candidate.
.

I don't think this needs to go on any furthur. Everyone is trying to get Senator Clinton to drop out of the race. Let's get Real. The person who needs to drop out of the race is Obama. It is apparent that this man is doing nothing more than trying to pull the wool over the eyes of the American people. He has contradicted himself too many occasions to be trusted as the President of the United States. Say one thing to us and something else to other countries behind closed doors. He doesn't seem to be able to keep a handle on what his staff of advisors are saying to people around the world from one day to the next. Get REAL PlEASE. As I have said many times before, Obama is not the answer to America's problems. If anything he is going to be America's problem if elected President. I requested not to long ago in one of my posts for the American people to ask two important questions: Who is Barack Obama?, and Will the real Barack Obama please stand up? Well, I think America is finally getting the answer to both of those questions and unfortunately it is not what a lot of people wanted. But like the saying goes: Better late than never and everthing that glitter's ain't gold.

Young black male from NC. I support Hillary Clinton and I approve this message.

Dont be fools! I wont vote for your candidate and you wont vote for mine. This election is lost to this bitter fight.
But by all means, keep on telling yourself that we will hold hands and sing Kumbai-ah and be united.
Too late folks.
Its too ugly to unite. Screw it

The only problem is that Obama has been criticizing Clinton for wanting to meet with her joint chiefs of staff and the generals on the ground before she makes any final plans to withdraw. This is what he has been campaiging against her...don't you Obama fans listen to what he actually says? Clinton has been consistant that she will meet with her joints chief of staffs and get their advise before any premature withdrawal. Obama has never publicly said this. He has only told us that he will withdraw within 60 days and nothing more and nothing less has been said. Which is why th rest of America is beginning to get skeptical of this guy. He's all talk no action.

Obama is not Little Red Riding Hood. He's the wolf.

Correction!

Some one should pounce on Hillary about her Peter situation in Califorina.

By the way, was I the only person wo heard her say, during her late night speech in Ohio on Tuesday, that "We will Win in Iraq and Afghanastan. Does that mean that she will not carry out the "solution" that she has put forth to the "big states" that she will begin working towards pulling our troops out day one of her presidency should she win (steal) the Democratic nomination and the general election?

What about her standing up for the people in Florida and Michigan? Why didn't she stand up for them when their leaders were making the decision to move the date of their primaries up, knowing it was in violation of the Democartic Parties rules and that their would be severe consequences for the voters in those states as a result of moving up the date? She knew it and she didn't speak up for them then, because she was arrogant to think that her opponent was insignificant and not serious about becoming the 44th president of the USA. Now that she realizes that math is constant and can not be changed. She wants to speak up of the voters of the rogue states. She wants to disregard her party's rules. I would have respect for her if she would publically say, "As much as I would like for the votes in Florida and Michigan to be counted and the delegates to be seated at the Democratic convention, the rules are the rules. The party leaders and elected officials, governors included, decided not to abide by the rules and therefore, the must suffer the consequences of not doing so. I am not running a win at any cost campaign and will not attempt to divide and destory my party for my own political advantage." That would speak volumes of her character, but from what I have witnessed during the past few days and read about her and her husband's political careers and scandals I don't think it is in her to do the right thing.

Hillary is witch, just look at the faces she makes in the debates.

Not only that but she is not the brightest witch. Her ego is blinding her to the fact that she can not win in November. She can not pull indpendent or disenfranchised votes.

Hillary=McCain and more war and troubles for the economy.

Independent for Obama, then McCain, never ever for Clinton machine more of the same polictics.

And the monster keeps going. What's wrong with Obama's plan of not just relying on his plan but include the ideas of people on the ground in iraq. It goes to show that he is a wise guy. He is not deceiving anyone but you (Clinton) are, you are the one behind the canadian Nafta saga and you used it to decive people in Ohio. You are indeed the devil's twin.

It is a sad time in America when a stereotypical politician such as Hillary Clinton has no problem standing or sitting before the American people–polished and deliberately being an effective executer of untruths about Barack Obama and his campaign, leading the dirty-politic games, attacking Barack Obama's religion, and speaking in such a condescending tone towards a member of her own party. Clinton's strategy is to win all any COST! Based on all her support for John McCain lately, one has to think is she a Democrat or a Republican? The Democratic Party leaders need to step in now-by asking her to tone it down or get out of the race!

Impeach Clinton.

Again.

Oh, Mr, Obama..............Time for you to drop out of the race.

The fact is that you can't bring any change for us. I am sick to see your flip-flop tricks everytime.

Go away......Mr. Obama............................anyone but you can be president!

Hillary 2008

Here she goes with negative remarks when the media is going to tell Hillary chill out. Hillary is not to be trusted why did she praise McCain for being experience candidate and Obama no experience I think if she look demoncrate nonimee McCain might choose Hillary for his running mate. Hillary what going on with you and McCain.

This is what is going to turn the millions of people that the democrats were able to energize this campaign season away!!! I wish Clinton did not bring it to this, I wish she did not drag Obama into this negative campaigning, and I iwsh people will remember that Obama tried to run this campaign as civil and fair as possible.

I am a big fan of the Clintons, but it saddens me to see them turn our political system in this country to this.

Obama tried to be as noble and positive as possible, and I hope he will remember that this is what turns people cynical in politics.

I have faith in Obama, and I really hope he does not let Clionton drag him down

STOP THE HATE, VOTE OBAMA 08!!!!!!!!!!

Its obvious CNN has been on the bandwagon to keep Hillary in this thing. They are continuing to slander everything in her favor. It sickened me how Lou Dobs and wolf Blitzer were obviously excited when they were getting the exit results on Tuesday afternoon. They showed that they were extactic that they were going to get to cover this thing further. And CNN did everything they could in the last week to make sure the democrats could not end this thing and unify. CNN sickens me. We have lost control of the political process some time ago. The media can pretty much steer things to go anything they want and its sad!!! I didnt really care which canidate won the nomination. I just wanted to avoid a the terrible fight that will hurt the party and most definitely hand the whitehouse to the republicans again. Well, once again, the media will have their way and decide which dem they want. Thanks alot for ruining the process. Especially YOU CNN, you guys are not fooling anyone, at least not me anyway!

Again, the Obama supporters are staring at the bark and not noticing the tree falling on them.

Obama is the one making the promise of a firm pullout date, not Clinton. She has said over and over again that she would have to see what the current state of Iraq is before deciding when to pullout all the troops. She said she would pull SOME out in the first 60 days.

He need to back up what he says and his advisors shouldn't be straying from that if it is indeed what he plans on doing. It has NOTHING to do with Clinton.

If someone accuses you of a crime you don't point out the misbehavior of someone else. You clear your name. That's what he needs to do.

And we're to believe your plan, Billary? The one you know is a lie...withdrawing troops within 6 months of you claiming office?

You're not a monster, you're a liar!

Hillary Clinton is the best candidate that America has ever known, I hope with all my heart the victory of this brilliant woman!

Not another candidate can claim to have such powers, the great American deep, deep Hillary Clinton!

Obama has surrounded himself with academics who keep screwing up. If this latest snafu isn't evidence that he's not suited for the Presidency, I don't know what is.

And speaking of Iraq and the business of war, I'm just a bit weary of all his "Hillary voted for the war" business. The facts are that congress as a whole backed the war, the media facilitated it, and the public sat glued to the TV supporting the media that brought you the war nightly. If you weren't for the war, why were you watching? And how about that war theme music, CNN? The media has never been happier than when their embedded reporters send something bloody tidbit back from the front and when the public could "ride along" with the troops.

It would be lovely if you all would get the hell over your white guilt, and start supporting the real candidate able to lead the country: Hillary Clinton. You're trying so hard to show the world you're not racist, that you're actually being racists. Obama might make a good president someday, but right now he's just not ready. How many more blunders does he or one of his "educators turned advisor" have to make before you all get it?

Hillary Clinton is doing her best to prove Samantha Powers was right.

Senator Clinton, please, can YOU stop deceiving voters? Your campaign is the one making the most debase negative attacks towards Senator Obama. Your campaign is the one comparing a Democratic candidate to Karl Rove and Ken Star.

Oh yeah, btw, how come CNN covered so extensively on NAFTA accusation to Obama and now only posted on tiny entry about how Clinton might actually be culpable?

And where is the big headline saying that Obama Won Texas?
It's confirmed. He got more votes with primary and caucus adding together?

Why CNN? Why are you skipping all these important headlines?

Miss Power is correct in what she said about troop pull outs as well as what she said about HC being a monster. Neither Obama or Clinton can make any promise of troop withdrawl without talking to the military and intelligence advisers. Anyone that thinks otherwise is fooling themself. Obama and Clinton have both come forward with plans and promises on troop withdrawl and a smart voter knows that it's not a guarantee! I wouldn't want a president in office that wouldn't go the key figures first.

Hillary, give it a rest. Remember, you voted to send our troops to Iraq. If she gets the nomination, I'm voting McCain.

that is an insult.....to any monsters who may have been mentioned in relation to hillary....

She parodies herself on late night TV, so it is common knowledge first of all....second, it is much more factually correct than many clinton comments....and outright fabrications...

isn't this person a volunteer???? get a grip....

I think we need to convene the paris-lindsey-britney axis of airheads to weight in on this breaking news.....

Hillary you are the best ...

Obama .. your real face is coming out and change for hope that you preached is all but just words ...

shame on you

she might be a monster ,, but you are worse than that

btw Shrek was the most lovable monster .... and so is Hillary

Hillary '08

To MikenMississippi: "Many Mississippians believe in you!"

It's too bad she doesn't believe in Mississippians. It's kind of an unrequited relationship you guys have got goin on with her... sorry.

Ugh i'm sooo heated... The picture by the story doesnt even make it better. Why can't you just run a clean campaign based on your positions and let the voters choose. Comments like that make people question if you are bi-polar...After being honored to be by Barack.

I don't see how reminding people that someone called her a "monster" is a good thing.

Well 'NAFTA-GATE' is going to prove HRC to be a MONSTROUS – LIAR, the same way Bush and the Repugnants have always behaved.
I find it ABSOLUTELY OUTRAGEOUS, her claim to a "LIFETIME-OF-EXPERIENCE" along with McCain and at the same time disparaging Obama for 'only giving a speech' as his "accomplishment"??!!
Sen Clinton, I predict PA will be your political graveyard!

Sooooo .. Clinton would NOT listen to the leaders of the millitary and she would NOT revise her plan if things work not as planned ?

In fact, I think she would not listen to them.

By the way ... WHERE ARE YOUR TAX RETURNS Mrs. HIDING-STUFF ?

Clinton will do and say anything to get elected. She attacks and then whines when she is attacked. She criticizes others for thing she herself does. Obama has been an elected official longer than her and it shows. He has a maturity about him that she lacks. Obama has earned everything he has. He has had nothing handed to him. I don't think the same holds for Clinton.

No Senator Clinton, this is another example of trying to score cheap political points!

No Senator Clinton, this is another example of politics as usual!

No Senator Clinton, this is another example of why you are offering false hopes of change!

No Senator Clinton, this is another example of rush to judgement and why you are not ready to be commander in chief!

No Senator Clinton, this is an example of why you will not win the Democratic nomination!!!

SO TELL US HILLARY.... WHY ARE YOUR ADVISERS TELLING BILL

CLINTON WHO TOLD THE CLINTON PRESIDENTIAL LIBRARY IN

ARKANSAS TO BLOCK THE RELEASE OF DOCUMENTS THAT

PERTAIN TO HIS TIME IN THE WHITE HOUSE AND ALL THE

PARDONS HE RELEASED INCLUDING MR. RICH??? EXPLAIN

THAT

Hillary Monster Clinton the poor poor old lady victim of bad men...wait a minute...some fems don't like her too?! I though Shrillary had locked up the vajayjay vote? Looks like the shoulder-pad feminists are a dying breed. Hilliary will be the last of them.

By the way, Power is 100% right.

OBAMA ...

WAKE UP AMERICA...

FAKE-FAKE–FAKE...

Billary has some nerve talking about Obama deciving voters!
She lied to all those pepole who voted for her in Ohio about the NAFTA issue.
In fact, the Candian press said themselves that the leak wasn't from the Obama camp, but the CLINTON CAMP!!
So what is she talking about??!!!
She is so twisted and perverse that it makes me sick!! She choses to hear what she wants!
I can't wait until this whole thing is over so she can go SIT DOWN!!!

I have to ask what does this have to do with the issues. I would like to hear how the candidates will solve our educational woes occuring at the lowest levels ofour public educational system and how do we really pay for it.

I don't care if Hillary is called a monster, which her actions cna help one make a determination here. I know she says she has all this expereince but there is nothing in her 35 years describing her dealing with a crisis, or negotiated a treaty. The answer is the same as she is accusing Obama of, she made a speech in China concerning womans rights, which probably led to the inprisonment of many women after she left, but this is not a negotiation.

CNN seems to ok the actions of Clinton and criticize those of Obama. You seem to ok evil and surpress good. That is you promote the cryer and demote the one doing what is right by the process.

Why isn't Omaba's name not on the top of the Political page.

Hillary has to be the nominee for the Democrats. For the vast majority of the jaded and cynical (read unimpressed with nothing more than empty eloquence) Obama is simply not an option. McCain is much more palatable as an alternative. If I can't have Hillary, I'll be happy with McCain, and so will a vast portion of the political middle of the roaders, like me. Obama should go back to the Senat for about ten years, and actually do something.

TO HECK WITH YOU HILLARY SUPPORTERS
TO HECK WITH YOU

I DONT CARE TO HEAR THE NAME HILLARY EVER AGAIN, AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED SHE CAN GO TO CRAWFORD WITH BUSH IN JANUARY, I DON'T WANT HER ANYWHERE NEAR THE WHITE HOUSE.

This is further evidence of an earlier comment that is becoming a refrain which is that Senator Clinton will use every tool to gain the nomination. After all, we can now see with hindsight that this is the woman who accepted her husband's infidelity so as to be able to one day run for the presidency.

SHAME ON YOU HILLARY CLINTON. SHAME ON YOU!

You have your pack of attack wolves out and about throwing in YOUR WORDS "the kitchen sink" at Senator Obama and you dare to critisize his staff for calling you what you are? A MONSTER

You have your CHIEF OF STAFF liken Senator Obama to Kenneth Starr? Do you really want America to relive your enabling your husband's sexual escapades and subsiquent lies and perjury and obstruction of justice that lead to his impeachment trial?????

The American people are smart enough to see you for what you are. You will not be elected Preisdent OR Vice President. If Democrats are too stupid to see that you do not belong on your party's ticket, then we'll have 4 more years of Republican rule.

As is, I'm starting to lean toward voting for Senetor McCain now. Dems need to clean this mess up and decide what direction they want their party to go in. 4 years ago they couldn't even come up with a candidate to beat a President with a 40% approval rating. Now we're seeing why...

SHAME ON YOU HILLARY CLINTON!

I forgot to mention that the term that I have heard that suits her much better than "monster" is "SNARLY SHREW". I liked her more when I was still a Republican.

Clinton is ridiculous!!!!!

This is just sillY!!! Hillary, any President with good Judgement can have an agenda prepared but change it upon getter better intelligence. You plan also calls for a high-level meeting with military and intelligence advisers upon entering office to evaluate the situation on the ground and strategize about how best to withdraw troops from the country....Aren't your allegations Hypocritical? This is the same type of broken politics Obama Speaks about. Plus if the Canadian government have denied the substance of that report why are you hammering on thin Air??? You are making it worse for the Democratic party by making these silly allegations, You really almost endorsed McCain yesterday. i was once someone who would have voted for you if by all the bad luck in the world Obama didn't get it but I refuse to vote for you if he doesn't win the nomination. You are probably going to be as bad as a republican. You make Bill look very bad.

Why is she still criticizing Obama over the NAFTA memo if the Canadians government aleady admitted it wasn't accurate? I'm starting to hate this woman.

I think the Obama supporters are a little upset today.

At some point, doesn't there have to be some backlash from the negative – and often dishonest – campaigning that Sen. Clinton is doing? Everyone has denied the accuracy of the Canadian meeting report and the Obama campaign has distanced itself from Ms. Power. Voters will see through this.

First of all my son is and been in Iraq 3 times over , As much as I want them home . You can not bring them home in 60 day and make it safe , All knows it take at lest a year or more to do this . So this her talk , First a year ago when this all began. She said in many debated a year she will do this , Now in last 3 months is been 60 day . ??????????? hummm i don't no why she flips a lot but she dose . Lie lie lie .

She is getting out of hand. To say this raises "disturbing questions" and then turn around and say this is no different from what she or any new president would have to do when taking office is too much. HRC seems to have no shame. It's laughable.

Obama '08!

Hillary is constantly shooting herself in the foot. She reminds me of Willey Coate andRoad runner. She works so hard to destroy Barack and find the mountain falling on her. I concure she is a MONTERRRRR..........................................

My issue with her campaign is that she constantly circulates negative stories about Obama, making it infinitely harder for him to reach out to her voters, which ultimately, is something he would have to do as the dem. nominee. She has, more or less, no chance of winning the nomination, unless she wins all of the remaining states with an over 20 point difference (60-40). She's only tearing the party apart. Obama could easily send us all mesages of the negative news directed at Hillary, but, unlike her campaign, he hasn't...

Oh...give me a break!! This woman is just evil!! She cherry-picks statements by people indirectly related to her opponent's campaign.... spins them out of context and uses them to create inuendo. Obviously she preys upon the uninformed. This is the Democratic version of a right-wing shock jock! If she is coming up with this stuff on her own, I think she should apply for a radio job when the campaign is over....Surely, the "you go girl" types can't be proud of this behavior. I am a proud, independent, educated woman....and the more I am finding out about this lady, the more disappointed I become. I know there has to be a better female prospect for the job than this, because "just anyone female" does not , by default, represent the best of us.

Another example of how Hillary can't take the high road out of this. She had a great oportunity to come out of this looking like she was presidential material, but instead she decided to not just comment on this issue, but take it a step further and cite or "examples" of this type of problem that have not been substantiated.

Another example of the Clinton Campaign cutting and pasting comments to make it look like something else.. Samantha Powers says Barack Obama will not try to fix the Iraq situation by himself in "some plan that he’s crafted as a presidential candidate," and what does the Clinton Campaign do? Try to spin that into saying he doesn't have a plan. Nobodys gonna fall for this one Hill.

Americans WANT a president who knows he's human, not a president who's so egotistical as to think they can fix a complex situation like Iraq by themselves.

Obama '08

Obama is a flip-flopper, and he kowns he is lying to his voters.
shame on you, Obama.

It's obvious that Hillary will do anything to slander Obama's name and staffers to win the nomination. While I will concede that this woman should not have called her a "monster" doesn't give Hillary the right to act like one. HELL HATH NO FURY LIKE A WOMAN'S SCORN!!!

Yes, this is exactly what I asked myself when I listened to Obama several times saying that he will pull the troops immediately from Iraq. I wondered how is he going to do this, and I wondered more if he really has a realistic plan for that. I waited and waited to hear from him any specific substance about that issue, but nothing new came up until I read this article. Do some people still believe that experience does not matter, do some people still say that he has a better judgment. I would not support someone for doing one thing right and then stands knowing not what to say when it comes to real action. Enough of just change, hope and yes we can. Why cannot you say something to make me really believe you? When the words are too big then one should be able to be up to it.

AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I just heard that Hillary's campaign was the one who called the Canadian government and told them that all the NAFTA talk was political campaign rhetoric.

AND SHE ACCUSSED OBAMA OF DOING IT

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH

HEY OHIO HOW DO YOU FEEL?

IS IT 3 AM YET

AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Hillary really is a decietful liening "monster". I so sick and tired of her dirty politics. Sick! After this election year I will NEVER EVER vote again. NEVER!

Here we go again I think there was a song named that and most likley Clintons brainchild.
What length will you go to Hil. to get your name on a BLDG>
THis garbage makes me sick and I'm sure meny others who read your dribble.

why is her campaign's connection to Canadian officials not being displayed, or the story regarding the huge stock windfall attached to her husband's presidental library, or the many other scandals attached to her "experience". has the media been so manipulated by her recent whinning that you now avoid any story or bit of relevant news?

What is wrong with these people????/// Can't anyone read English any more???????? What is wrong with what the adviser said in total??? These people will soon over play there hand, just watch

Just another example of the Clinton campaign using double talk to attempt to divert any news away from her. What about her alleged advisors talking to the Canadian government about NAFTA? What about her not releasing tax information about the earned income of her and her husband, nor who has contributed to his foundation? Where did the $5 million come from? What about the comments made about the people of Mississippi? The fact that she compares Obama to Carl Rove is a joke. Who used the politics of fear in the days leading up to Ohio and Texas to scare people into voting for her. She talks about changing the way that politics work in Washington, but continues to use the same old tactices of the current administration and that of her husband. The three greatest lies are always told after the marriage, during the hunt, and in politics. Give me a break.

Obama lied to the left about his position on NAFTA, and now we find out he is lying about his position on Iraq. McCain is going to tear him to shreds.

Obama is a fake. He is trying to say that this woman was now an informal adviser! Baloney...If she wasn't central to his campaign policy, why would she even comment on his wishy washy stance about removing troops from Iraq. She herself said that he can't commit to anything. Everything about his is just rhetoric. He got caught on the NAFTA lies he was spreading about Hillary when the Canadians leaked the discussion with his adviser. They tried to back peddle and say that they weren't sure who it was, and even blame Hillary. It was only because CTV investigated the report and DETERMINED THAT IT IN FACT WAS OBAMA'S ADVISER WHO CALLED HIS POSTURE JUST CAMPAIGN RHETORIC AND THEY NEED NOT WORRY!

Open up your eyes people! Obama and his motley crew are the worst of the worst politicians....ala Chicago style.

Hillary's talk is beging to sound like, if she cannot have the Presidental seat as a Democrat then let me make my opponent leak horrible against Mccain with all her half truths. This would give her some hope that she could possibly run in 4 years. She has won only 14 out of 41 states. If this shoe was on the other foot, we all would hope that Barack would end his campaign. Someone needs to tell her to stop dividing the democratic party....Plain and simple.

I don't understand why people think that anything these politicians are saying now is actually going to be exactly what they will do once in office. As we all know they have to get approval from others for most of what they want to happen anyway. They don't have the inside scoop that President Bush has right now either so I'm a little concerned that they already have a "plan of action" for the war in Iraq considering they don't have full details on everything going on over there.

HERE GOES HILLARY AGAIN with the negative attacks and smear campaign. Power was an ADVISER... not a PAID STAFFER.

Her comments should be regarded as coming from someone with minor insider knowledge of the campaign or influence on it.

The fact that this was a Scottish BBC interview should tell you how important she was.

CLINTON IS LYING, PEOPLE! DON'T LISTEN TO HER!

It seems like the Obama campaign is stumbling....

Hmmm, guess that comes from inexperience....

Once again the world can see that Obama is a pathological liar!!!

More of the same from Clinton.... twist his words and misrepresent what he says. Keep fighting Barack... no matter what the "Monster" says you will have a solid delegate lead in the end...

Pay attention to what Clinton actually said. She said she was committed to a withdrawl within 60 days, but didn't indicate how long the full withdrawl would take either. My guess is that she won't actually withdraw all of the troops when all is said and done.

It takes some serious stones to blast the Obama campaign over the Canada/NAFTA issue when it's been definitively proven that HER adviser had the wink and a nod meeting with the Canadian officials.

The fact that some of you still support her despite her history of lies and betrayal within her own party astonishes me.

I am Black, if HIllary Clinton becomes the front runner, I will not vote for her!. I know I am only one person, but many "Back People" feel the same way!

Hillary is not someone I feel can run this country. She is the kind I do not want as a President. She is not caring, she is known for lieing, and she is a woman caught up in a dishonest marriage.

I have a gut feeling that she would stop at nothing. Its all about her, not the people. Once she gets into office, she will forget about all the folks that helped her. Look at the Black voters, we put her husband into office back in the ninety. Now she has kicked up to the side and chose to only express herself to the Mexican Population. Obama speaks to all people.

At first, I was excited about this election, now I can't say I am.
Hillary is not one who is liked in this country and in other countries.

I Pray that God helps us if she is elected. Because, she is not easy to live with or work around.

I am changing to Obama! I love the way Obama, is a caring person and he is HONEST.

I believe Obama is chosen by GOD! to bring this nation together as ONE!

PLEASE, WIL SOMEBODY SHUT THIS WOMAN UP! SHE IS THE BIGGEST HYPOCRITE EVER! I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE. SOMEONE TELL THIS "VICTIM" TO GO BACK WHERE SHE CAME FROM. THE MEDIA IS JUST AS BAD! TALK ABOUT A LOVE AFFAIR. THE MEDIA NEEDS TO REPORT EVERYTHING AND STOP TRYING TO CHOOSE SIDES AND CONTROLLING THE OUTCOME. THIS IS LUDACRIS!

Mr. Obama will potentially suffer more from the slum lord trial than
all the shots back and forth during the campaign.
That trial may determine the nominee.

Obama – seems an empty suit. It really shows how flop flip he can be.... I am really questioning his integrity during this compaign

Clinton will win this kind of fight. Obama should stick to his message of hope and change, because he does stand a better chance that way. Declaring war on Hillary Clinton will not benefit his campaign, especially because he will be forced to fight with one hand behind his back. His people are going to be told to shut up. I wish he had that power of all of you Obama Drama Bloggers. It is obvious that Obama is making these mistakes because he is not prepared for this kind of battle, imagine how he could mess up wars and conflicts around the world. We don't need on the job training
VIVA CLINTON Y NOSOTROS PAIS
VIVA LIBERTAD

Couldn't have said it better myself Bewitched.... Where is the Obama hotlink... Even when you read an artical about the two canidates there is always a hotlink on billarys name..... I agree with Bewitched... Why are you guys so biased?.....

Well, once again, Clinton is right on foreign policy.

Obama is relying on his aides to speak on policy issues for him. Let's not elect someone just because he's a nice guy but on what they say and how they run a campaign.

Clinton has been gracious win or lose and hasn't resorted to calling Obama names. I don't believe her campaign is responsible for the Muslim perception and i think that on the issues, she is the most qualified candidate in the race.

She's well rounded on EVERY issue. That's what is most important.

If it walks like a monster, talks like a monster, and acts like a monster...well...then it must be a monster.

Obama is certainly showing some signs of inexperience when it comes to campaigning...while Clinton shows signs of her experience of relying on the ugly, the nasty, lies and half-truths, fear mongering, and finger-pointing.

As for all the experience she claims to have...she never really cites it. She only says that she has it. When you actually look at her experience, it amounts to little more than a hill of beans. If that's all you can muster after 35 years, then you haven't really accomplished much. Remember, she would never be where she is today if it were not for her husband. She was the first lady of Arkansas (couldn't do that without Bill) and she was the first lady of the America (couldn't do that without Bill either).

The Big question, would anybody even know HRC if it weren't for BC?

The Answer: No.

When Hillary and Sen.Obama first started this campaign. I was for her but she (Hillary) and her husband has made me like Sen.Obama more and more everyday. I voted for him. Not just for those pervious reasons. But for the fact that when he goes into office, we have a better chance with him than her. She is a very ugly person and the tatices she is using are not of a LADY.
I have a young child and I want my child to have a furture.
I real would hate to see her go into office.
Thank you for your time

*sigh* Both plan to start withdrawing as soon as possible, but neither can pin-point an exact date or timeline. How could they? They're not able to see the future. Things happen. To suggest that Senator Obama is not as commited to withdrawing the troops as she is boggles the mind. They have the same position! That spin at the end of the article was so obvious, too. Of course it contradicts her own plan. It's basically the same plan!

NOT consulting advisers upon entering office would be the mistake.

People – dumb comments made by campaigners, often sound bites of a larger conversation and bracketed for maximum impact – whether paid, such as Wolfson, or unpaid, such as Power, aren't news. They're trolls.

Let the candidates speak for themselves. That said, isn't it a bit hypocritical of Senator Clinton to suggest that her course of action – virtually identical to Senator Obama's – is correct and his disturbing?

Does this woman EVER quit? When is CNN going to get tough with her and not allow her to hog the spotlight with this foolishness? I guess Powers resigning isn't enough? She is pure unadulterated evil. Can the antichrist be a woman?

You want more? The election for the President of the United States cannot be dragged down to the level of reporting that is used for sensationalism. Such as in reporting on rock stars and unfortunate movie stars. That should be left up to the Rags. And those who are interested can pay for it. But keep us serious voters out of it. There is so much to be said about positive. Than give us all a reprieve, please....

Barack Obama, is Mr."Silver Tongue".. Without, skills and knowledge to lead this Country...
Hillary Clinton has the knowledge and most of all the "strength" to lead this country!
Our many problems can not be solved overnight, however with her as Commander & Chief, we have a chance........

it's no wonder the republicans hated this woman for sooo long

Clinton is a Monster.

There is no way that if circumstance change by the date they both say they are going to remove the troops that either of them won't re-eveluate whats best for the country. Both of them have laid out best case scenarios, but Clinton is calling Obama a deceiver when she is doing the exact same thing.

I think Obama will do whats best for the country, and Clinton will do or say whats best for her.

Candidates obviously have serious contempt for the electorate's ability to discern between substance and pure political effluvia. Why should we be concerned about what a supporter, or even someone loosely connected to Obama's campaign is uttering out there ? Should we attribute every statement made by someone affiliated to Obama's campaign, to Obama ? These people are not running for President. Obama is, and therefore it's what he says that's of consequence and substance. First it was what his preacher said. Then it became what Farrakan said, and later what some economic advisor said to some Canadiens while on a university tour. Now, it's another advisor saying something that Clinton wants us to take Obama to the gallows for.

Oops that should have read Samantha Power instead of Brown

This race is OVER. Why does Clinton pretend it is not?

She will lose on pledged delegates. She will lose the popular vote. The superdelegates are not crazy – they will not override the will of the voters. Does anybody think someone who can't win the popular vote of their own party has any shot at winning the general?

What is she going to say when the supers don't go for her crazy little plan to steal the nomination? Time for the press to learn math and stop perpetuating the delusion.

Anyone with any sense can see that Hillary is a MONSTER, just ask Bill. He promised her the white house, now he is working his butt off trying to deliver that promise. I bet she is more like an attack dog behind close doors.
I pity anyone that crosses her. Monster is to good a word to describe Hillary, how about the word that rhymes with witch.

Desparate, desparate. Attack, Atack. Hillary Clinton is change you can count on. She will change her positions and beliefs to suit the political winds. In Ohio, is against NAFTA and outsourcing, while as recently as a year ago she praised them, not to mention that a good deal of her and Bill's money (can't be sure without those pesky tax returns) have come from his corporate ties. She looks for the jugular and shows no shame that she never really has a plan of attack for a problem, just the attack. Ms. Powers was not the first woman to lose her position for speaking the truth, it would be a shame for Hillary Clinton to be elected by not speaking the truth.

ok all you Obamo supports u best go ahaid and get mad and raise hell now because you man will lose the nomination....I met this guy today thats a predictor and he has predicted 997 correct out of 1000 predictions and he says Hillary wins....Ok go jump up and down, put your fist thru the wall whatever coz you've been told in advance!

Interesting that Power, a well-educated person, would resort to some of the same language many Obama supporters use on these blogs when referring to Senator Clinton. That kind of language from either side is unnecessary, particularly when Obama's campaign and supporters are ultra sensitive to any comments that might have tinge of racism. No question in any body's mind as to what a monster is!

So Clinton will withdraw troops from Iraq within 60 days no matter what the real situation is over there? Did she mention how many will she withdraw? Even if just withdraw one person, she can claim that she started the withdraw, but we all know that's not a real withdraw.
Shame on you, Hillary Clinton!

Liar,liar,liar again. How is it possible in 60 days. She have no plans to get out has she have to get in. This is an other blind ticket ... Who is stupid enough to believe her ??????????? She is looking the white house to continue the clinton's legacy..

Samantha Brown basically told the truth *shrug*

GOOD JOB HILLARY! Its nice to see her back on her feet and pushing forward strong with the momentum...Obama keeps filling up stuff in the Kitchen Sink to be thrown at him....not a good strategy for him!?

I believe Senator Obama is still getting a free ride by the press . After the way they jumped on "Bill" for the fairy-tale comment, I would expect them to at least slap Obama on the wrist! The person who described Hilary as a "monster" was working for Obama whether she was being paid or not. Another lapse in judgement–how many major gaffes do you get before being elected to the US presidency? ?

Obama 08!!!!!
This lady is really a negative fighter. Someone should please advise her to stay positive on her campaign. She should be tired of saying nasty words and things to fellow democrat, face your harsh word on republicant. Get real or get off the sit.
Obama 08!!!!!!!!!!!

I think the media needs to start highlighting the things that are wrong with the Clinton campaign and the Clintons.

Peter Paul vs. Clintons lawsuit
Clinton's involvement with Canada NAFTA dirty scandal
Clintons last year's TAX RETURN
Clintons camp reference to Senator Obama being like KEN STARR
ETC, Etc, Etc.....

UNBELIEVEABLE! First, Hillary demands that Power step-down because her comments were untrue and unfair, and then she insists that everyone should believe Power's comments regarding Iraq as fact! Additionally, I'm SICK of this "35 years of experience" nonsense. She was somebody's wife for over 10 years – nothing more! Both my father and I are lawyers – does that mean I can tack his 40+ years of experience onto my resume?

if she gets the nomination i will vote for Mccain

i hate this woman

not all women

just this one

What a flip flop.....i wonder he wants to be a President just to be the first Black person in History to be a President?Or he's really for real?its really hard for me to understand how he's going to show me that he can be a leader if he's advisers and staffs blew their mouth away.His campaign is still runninhg,his advisers and staffs are ruinning his chance don't blame Hillary because she using it against him.

Please leave Hillary alone.Its her Right her BIRTH RIGHT to be president, like S. Powers said she will say or do anything to win. replace MONSTER with Frankenstein Frankenstein….. Frankenstein a person who creates a monster or a destructive agency that cannot be controlled or that brings about the creator's ruin

I would encourage everyone to scroll down a bit in this political ticker to view the article entitled "Clinton campaign denies Canadian report on NAFTA comments". For the life of me, I can't figure out why CNN is not giving this article more press. Instead, they seem intent on burying the story. Well it is big news.

The truth here is that the Clinton campaign will "pounce" on any statement if they can take it out of context, "spin" it, or otherwise manipulate it to their own ends. There seems to be no end to the extent to which the Clinton campaign will stretch or defy the truth in order to get votes. PLEASE CNN, just report the facts as they come out. No need to take sides. The truth speaks quite well for itself.

Correction!

Let me quote Hillary corectly, "We will WIN in Iraq and Afghanastan...."

Double standard. Apparently, it is perfectly o.k. for Senator Clinton to use meaningless phrases like a call for a "time out on trade" or set up a supposedly "mandated" health care plan without specifying how it will be mandated. Apparently, it is perfectly o.k. for Senator Clinton to insult Senator Obama's supporters, like me and the millions of others like me, by calling us "delusional." Some of her supporters and some of the media even call us "cult like." This is just fine even though we have little mechanism to defend ourselves. But it is fine apparently. Once more, I ask CNN to stand up for us and stop supporting the bashing of American citizens by the Clinton campaign.
Once more, I ask CNN to ask Senator Clinton to give some specifics - what does a "time out from trade" mean? What are her national security credentials, because I have looked at her resume and her website and I cannot find any. Start asking substantive questions and stop diverting us all into the name-calling sphere. We are not in kindergarten. Enough of this absurdity - please take about real issues and make BOTH of the candidates (not just Senator Obama) give REAL specifics.

First NAFTA, now Iraq, and the universal health insurance has dissappeared from his agenda. Is he a man of his words ,or just faking them to win the delegates?

What? Is nobody suppose to say anything negative about your Presidential pick CNN? If so your mods can delete it as soon as it's posted?
By the way.... is see at the top of the page in your hot links there is no mention of Mr Obama.... Just the two republicans Names. Hillary and MCcains.... Whats up with that CNN? Again I say... You guys are a piece of work... How about being a fair sorce of public Information?....

Give me a break, Clinton pounces on everything, especially non-issues. Guess what, Obama could have ripped up Clinton for the whole NAFTA smear that traced all the way back to her campaign, yet Obama chooses to stay quiet.

This is getting ridiculous.

Come off it, Hillary!

The woman has resigned. What else do you want! You are just becoming petty.

Oh Please. I thought she said she does not deal with hypothecticals! What happens if by the time she is sworn in and there is a lot of Al Qaeda violence, what will she done then. Withraw troops from the war she voteded for. Please this lady need to take a lesson in good judgement making

Obama 08!

So is Clinton saying that she will stick to her current plan, no matter what changes occur between now and January 2009? That seems like a kind of rigidity we definitely do *NOT* want in someone answering the red phone.

i'm beginning to agree with others that said this woman is bipolar.

She is so awful. I am constantly amazed at the stupidity of most Americans. First they put Bush in the White House (for 8 years) and now they want to put this charlatan in the White House. This country is the leaders of the free world? America lives in a constant state of fear because their politicians shove it down their throat. The rest of the world is pulling for Obama.

I have to say that Hillary is a fighter A fighter for every person that has been down. She has proved over and over again what a person can do to overcome obstacles that an ordinary person would not take. She has pulled herself out of desperate situations over and over. I think that's wonderful. I read once in an article that it was her belief in God that gave her so much strength to overcome obstacles. I agree it takes a super woman to do what she has done. I believe that she will fight for every American that is down

Samantha Power is a brilliant, Pulitzer Prize winning author who uncovers the human rights atrocities for Americans' general consumption. She is a strong, powerful, intelligent and respectable woman. Hillary Clinton is surrounded by thuggish, bulldog tactic men (see: Wolfson, Penn) and menopausal women who are old enough to have attended segregated schools while Barack Obama is surrounded by women with Power's profile–young, empowered, and intelligent.

So when the Pulitzer prize winning advocate for the exposure and mitigation of genocide among other international atrocities calls the opponent a monster who stoops to anything to win, why is she not heralded as an intelligent human being calling out the truth. And "feminists" think that it's best to vote for Hillary only because she's a woman? Jesus, she stayed with her cheating husband! She's surrounded totally by men. Some powerful woman she is. What is wrong with people examining this election? Obama's staff is full of women.

It is maddening to hear people say that Power is a thug for saying those things–she's a brilliant writer and professor! Gah, it's insane! And they know nothing about her "why does Obama spend so much time courting other countries like Scotland?" The woman is FROM the UK.

GO HILLARY !!!! knock him out once and for all.

I heard a funny joke last week. It goes like this:

Q: Can a clearly superior presidential candidate prove his worth to the American public by running a positive campaign while his opponent perpetuates falsehoods and maligns his character?

A: No!

Wait. Maybe it wasn't a joke. That's right, it's a tragedy.

Good luck, Senator Obama. You have my full support.

hillary lets face it you are a monster. instead of the kitchen sink why dont you just flush your campaign down the toilet

Hillary Clinton is guilty of a lot of mud-slinging. She has roots that are entangled in the mire of a corrupt American political system. Our system may be the best in the world, but that does not mean that we have to ignore those who sling mud in our political contests.

I, for one, am just sick of it. I think that I will vote for the candidate who can maintain control of his/her own mouth, as well as the mouth's of their staff members and ads, and stick to explaining his or her action plan - no matter what their political views.

Greed and corruption may make the world go around, but that does not mean that we just have to lay down and accept it. Come on America - get mad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Team Hillary! '08

Because he isn't going to make empty promises to remove the troops for political gain. And I guess Hillary will keep her promise to remove forces in 16 months no matter what commanders on the ground are saying. If that's the kinda statement she wants to run on, so be it.

Obama is not as sweet and kind as the press seem to make him out too be................

Power's would not have made such a statement unless she heard it before from someone else.

She should have been fired and not given the easy way out.

Wake up America!!!!!

wow. looks like the obama campaign is starting to drop the ball. or several balls, as it were.

Oh Clinton being first lady don't make a reason to make her president . We know it will be Bill running things. Why is it she always make a BIG deal out of what Barack Obama might say , When she said a lot of very nasty things about him. And allowing her staff to do so as well. And most all was not true , There she goes again . Coming out smelling like a rose . (((( ROSE ))))) well last time I smelled a rose . They are sweet and beautiful. That she not sweet or beautiful .

The Clinton-not strikes again:

No you can’t question my integrity, but I can question yours
No you can’t tell the Canadian government to take your comments with a grain of salt, but I can
No you can’t see my tax returns
No you can’t see my White House work product
No you can’t ask me questions about my “experience” (because I have no good answers)
No you can’t make changes to our system of having lobbyists finance campaigns
No you can’t count votes in caucuses as legitimate forms of democratic expression
No you can’t call yourself a real state unless you’ve voted for me

OBama should run as an independent if he does not get the Democratic nomination. I dont think many people realize how many Republicans would vote for him. I think he could win as an independent as long as the elections are not fixed which they probably are! I have been a Republican all my life but after these 8 years I'm going independent!

I am sick and tired of Hillary Clinton acting like she is holier than thou. When her campaign manager referred to Barack Obama as being like Ken Starr she refused to denounce this statement. So why is she now crying about one of Obama's campaign advisors calling her a monster? Voters are sick of the political bickering and Hillary's campaign always going on the negative. This is not what voters want to hear.

- Reggie

I don't think she should have resigned. May be Monster comments were a little aggressive to make in Public but regarding his Iraq pull out policy, I don't think anything was wrong with that.

As a Hillary Delegate in Washington State I am switching my allegiance. We have our legislative district convention Saturday and I am going to go for Barack Obama and try to convince as many of my constiuents as possible. I am also a PCO in the Democratic party. Hillary you have played this game worse than BUsh or even Hitler or Stalin. Before you destroy the country I will help correct my vote and stop you here in Washington State

Hillary IS a monster & has definitely been "behaving" like a monster. I don't really see why anyone would resign over this.....I guess because Obama's running less of a cutthroat campaign than her.

While any political staff member can make a miscue, this is the kind of miscue that comes from a less experienced candidate's camp. Clinton and Obama have been very clear about their positions on Iraq. In the race for the Democratic nomination, it's not a question of policy or intention, it's a question of experience. Clinton has the edge.

You still voted for the war Hillary !!! you can spin it all you want you voted for it so you are BUSH LITE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Obama lied to public on NAFTA,infact he was telling something to Canada government.
Same he is doing regarding Irag war. He is two faced man.
Rezko scandal.
Can we trust him.
NO. NO NO NO
enough of liars
SHAME TO YOU OBAMA.

LOL... this woman is an idiot, and she deserved to be fired/resigned. It's so disturbing that she is a Harvard professor, come on, she has no creditability. If Obama's 'change' means saying one thing in presidential campaign and flip around later when he is really elected, I feel sorry to those Obama supporters. You guys are cheated!! I can’t believe this woman is one of his ‘senior’ advisors. She doesn’t have the sophistication and integrity of being a ‘foreign policy advisor’. Her stupid remarks can start war between countries if she is in the cabinet.
Obama, you’ve just lost my vote…

Some one needs to pounce on Hillary about her Peter situation in California. By the way, was I the only person who heard her say that "we will in Iraq and Afghanstan..." during her late night speech in Ohio. I sure I wasn't ! Does that mean that she want carry out the plans she has outlined during her presidential campaign for pulling beginning to start pulling out U.S. troops within 6 months of her administration, provided she wins (steals) the Democratic explanation and then wins the general election. It's interesting she wants everyone else to say what they mean and mean what they say, but when it comes to her she wants the rules to be changed in the middle of the game because she's loosing. I would have respect for her if she just says Florida and Michigan decided not to abide by the Democratic primary rules, they knew the consequences, the governors of these states signed off on holding the primaries before they should. They have been sanctioned as a result and that is that! That would speak volumes of someone with good character, but unfortunately it does seem as if it is in her to do the right thing.

Makes sense – I don't think anybody can predict what's going to happen in January 09 based on March 08. What is the problem?

The monster comment was kind of low, but I can see how Hilary can be described as this. It seems like she will do anything to win the presidency even if it means using dirty tricks to influence voters' opinion in her favor.

The character kill tactic used by Bill Clinton before the NH vote and the false canada/Obama allegations 3 days before the Ohio votes. ould be described as monsterlike....

They should never talk, to the BBC... About anything.

Your running for office, in number one...For Number one... CIC.

why doesn't someone pick up the clinton stones laying all over th 1990's and throw them at her???? taking advantage of a young girl with the presidential power, lying under oath,business deals?????? sounds like a 2 headed clinton i mean monster, to me.

Well it seems that Hillary attributes comments from Obama's staff (paid or otherwise) to him. I just hope she applies the same criteria to herself. If so, then she is responsibile for the Ken Starr comment from her staff.

I wish they would stop with the negativism As I stated yesterday it does not do any one any good. We will get bored and turned off. I know I am losing interest. Please Obamaites take the high road.

This is so ridiculous. Some inconsequential staffer calls Clinton a 'monster.' Big deal. Clinton reveres Obama one moment and shames him the next. This has nothing to do with anything. The only real factor is that Obama was endorsed by celebrities a long time ago and is getting endorsed by new celebrities every day. (Clinton got endorsed by Jack N., but no one is sure whether he is still alive or not) Obama got endorsed by Oprah, and the public will ultimately side with her. The fact that he has absolutely no experience or qualifications to become presisdent will not be added to by some mouthy aide resigning- because celebrities have already made him really "inspirational." The sad thing is that you have a country where the politics are really sad, and a country where the political implications really aren't. Doesn't it seem insane to any of you that either Obama or Clinton were able to make it onto the ticket in the first place? Or are you so desperate to elect a democrat that you will facinate over someone just because they can play the race or the gender ticket? John (A Scared Canadian)

RRRAWWRRR! Clinton is spending more time trying to tear down Obama than talking about the issues that are facing America. She is a Monster and she's going to eat you all...

Hillary, keep it up. Go Hillary 08!

Wait a minute, how come Puerto Rico has more delegates than Wyoming, and many US states?

Yeah right, you will start withdrawaling troops within sixty days. And I guess on Day One the economic problem in the US will be in full recovery. Clinton will say and do anything to get elected.

You can hide th truth for some time but not all the time. The greatest evil is being exposed each and every day. By the end of the presidential campaign, Obama campaign will implode.

This is funny. She has the same plan Power gave, but believes it means something different if it isn't about her. No twisting spin can overcome her loss in this election. It's mathmatically impossible for her to overcome Obama's non-superdelagate lead. She has no chance at all of winning every remaining contest at a 61 to 39% advantage (what she'd need to tie him in total dels). All she is doing is dragging out the inevitable. Of course now her plan is to drag it out and "force," Obama to choose her as VP. That's why everyone including the Penn. Gov. are bringing it up.

Hillary is a straight talker.
Obama needs to be a little more transparent for the American people to trust him.

More Negativity from Clinton YAY!!!!!

I'm sorry but this just shows her poor judgment and how she is going to be a “my way or the highway” type of president….hmmmm sounds like another Bush to me…

Of course you have a plan as a nominee to deal with Iraq, but you would be foolish not to seek the opinions of your advisers, national security briefings, and the resources that are only available to the president to make a sound decision on what to do. She sounds like she is just going to pull our troops out without any consultation whatsoever……yea that’s all we need is a President who does use proper judgment, and makes knee jerk reactions on issues like the Iraq war….god save us all if she is elected president
nominee

I believe that Powers did not want to make things even worst so therefore her resigning was the best thing for everyone.What I do think is wrong is when we teach our young children principles like not to be negative, dishonest, ugly, and bully like and we don't uphold the same principles. What a joke!! My 10 year old is following the election and is kind of bothered at how some adults are acting (Clinton). Look at the grown folks that are what???? Suppose to represent our country!

Hey listen folks. The comment by Samantha Powers, the foreign adviser about withdrawing troops from Iraq and the speeches Senator Obama is making are two different versions. The version of Senator Obama is only a speech and he is doing it to get you to vote for him. This approach is deceiving and Senator Obama is deceiving the American people. I hope the supporters of Senator Obama think wisely before they vote for him in the coming primary elections.

Again make a big our of nothing in order to scare the public....

definition of a monster....

We do not need this in America. We need change from the same old politics of scaring people to vote for you.

How the hell does she get away with lying on NAFTA and IRAQ? SHE VOTED FOR THE IRAQ has the same (and acctually leaves more troops behind) plan on Iraq and has said the same thing!??! This is BS from the Clinton campaign "raises doubts about the Obama camp" what the hell!??! Yeah like Mark Penn, Wolfoson and others in her camp havent compared Obama to Karl Rove, Ken Star and even have screamed "SHAME ON YOU!" how does she get away with this !??!? Media biased for Obama? yeah right.

What a disgrace is the democratic party becoming. Clinton is tearing the party apart and dividing it. How sad that her arrogant attitude will lose the presidency to the democrats. She is so cynical about NAFTA and everything else. Seh would say anything to win! I think her personality is divided...one day she says "how proud she is of Obama..." and the next day "she is raging and accusing him" Good for you Obama. Stay above the garbage that the Clintons throw...Americans can see right trhough her lies and deceptions....by the way I wish CNN (Clinton News Network) would be more fair to Obama,,,they are so clearly supporting CLinton, especially Wolf!

This is absurd -- she should at least try to be a honourable as Obama.

Haha... this woman is very funny. I wish people have the video of the debate that had in TX where she actually said the same thing. And now her words contradicts everything she said. God when will this woman get a clue? She is trying to win over the Black Votes. I do not think this woman has any slightest knowledge when it comes to the way African-American people would portray her. She keeps digging her own hole very soon she'll fall into it.

Obama will need a plan if he want's to be president. If he is just going to use someone else's (like his speeches) plan, then it makes him irrelevant.

Wow, he's not having a good day today!

1 – Negative low road campaigning and name calling
2 – Special interest Pharma funding revelation
3 – No plan for Iraq

Nothing to look at folks. No change here!

Ok CNN... Do you have hillary back on the moderators team again.... Shes a lier, without on drop of truth in her.... So heres another post for you hillarys lovers to delete......

You do not deserve this lady Hillary!
I do not know haw Osama is unique and gifted, but Hillary IS!
I would like to know what ells she could get it and still stands up.
You are just jealous. Any other country /even Pakistan/will be so proud to have such a intelligent , capable and strong doughier.
In fact to call you a "monster" is not such a bad think ; I have been saying that to my wife, but she is the one has built our financial stability; I am too shy!

I am so sick of this election I may not vote. I am for Obama and have supported him in the past. If he is the nominee I will vote for him. There is no way I could bring myself to vote for Hillary. I have noticed why CNN is known as the Clinton News Network. That still sticks.

Obama is in trouble again! I knew his plan for troop withdrawal was a stupid comment for him to make. That is one reason I question his judgement. You cannot make a 16 month withdrawal commitment today, when tommorow may be a different ballgame altogether. Hillary said she would start to withdraw troops in 60 days and consult with her commanders as to future draw downs. That is how a commander- in -chief should respond. We need a President who knows what has to be done, and how to do it...

Hello President McCain.

I used to support Hillary... now, every day, she shoves that support in my face and I feel like an idiot for being for her in the first place.

I'm at the point now where I wouldn't even consider voting for her in the general election, and I'm a borderline "yellow dog" democrat!

Her conduct in this campaign has sickened me to no end and she can expect me to vote ABC in '08.

You are becoming very disgusting

Here we go again!!!

Hillary – what is the issue besides trying to make an issue out of nothing except for your personal gain?! It would not be wise to just pull the troopsout without discussing it with military leaders first. Barack has said his plan to begin withdrawal within 30 to 60 days of taking office but that he would also consult his military commanders. And you wonder why people have lost respect for you and at this point hate you!!!

Stop lying hillary you are not going to pull this to the people of mississipid and wyoming like you did to the ohio people. It is not going to work this time.

Just wanted to know if there is any truth about the meeting hillary's staffers had with the canadian govt. about NAFTA, and if so why the best political team on t.v. isn't covering that.

I guess I would have said Clinton is acting childish in relation to how the voting has turned out. She expected from the beginning that she would be the sole winner and since the public has decided otherwise up to this point, she is playing dirty pool. Is this really the kind of person, woman or not, we want in the White House for 4 years? Throwing temper tantrums, blaming everyone but herself when things don't go her way? I sure don't. Very selfish mannerisms she is displaying anymore. Too bad her husband is also acting the same way. For a former president of the US to act in this manner for the world to see really disgusts me.

We will see if the pro Clinton news, CNN blocks this also! The extreme right wing Rush Limbaugh is telling everyone to vote for Hillary! That is a good indication of whom the conservative right thinks they can beat in Nov. Now I'm all for a women President, BUT NOT THIS WOMEN! Many seem to be blinded to the fact that the Clinton's are capable of doing anything and everything to get back into the White house! I cannot believe Texas and Ohio gave her a chance to steal this election! I doubt Obama would be dumb enough to invite this cancer onto his ticket! We were close to impeaching the Clinton's just eight years ago! Doesn't that mean anything to her voters! If Hillary jumped off a cliff, would half the women in this country follow?

Looks like Obama made a poor choice for an "adviser"...paid or not she represents him.

This is a big shame on you Hilary. You are behaving like a kid

Colin Powell interviewed with cnn about troops with draw last month , he thinks her plan"I am committed to beginning a withdrawal within 60 days" is not base on the fact of groud troop"...
it is time to say she is really naive about her ability to be comande in chief. you can't absolutely use your plan from a year early to conduct the unknown situation of 2009.
Obama also state that his plan will work with generals on the fact on the ground at the time when he is elected.

<>

I would certainly hope that Obama would consult with his advisers once he's in the White House to formulate a withdrawal policy. What on earth makes Hillary think that she's the only one capable of or entitle to consult military and intelligence advisors in determining policy.

For the love of pete, does this woman even read her own stuff and does she have any idea just how foolish she sounds?

Hillary definitely doesn't have the charisma to be on a Freddy/Jason-level of monster. She's really more on the level of that main fake-looking zombie in "I Am Legend," the kind that should be dispatched immediately but for some inexplicable reason hangs around to the very end...before being vanquished by our hero.

Good grief.

I saw that video too, and I couldn't believe it.

Powers may be academically brilliant, but she is a complete boob when it comes to participating in a campaign. How can the Obama campaign continue to make these blunders?

Worse, Powers is/was a central foreign policy advisor for Obama, but she can't seem to keep her mouth under control. That would not work in a real foreign policy situation, in fact it could be a real problem.

Susan Rice's comments on Tucker Carlson's show that neither Obama nor Hillary are ready for a 3AM crisis call was another serious gaffe. And this was a prepared interview.

Add this to NAFTAGate and you have to ask whether the tightly organized BO campaign is self-imploding.

THE MORE REASON CITIZENS OF MISSISIPPI WILL NOT VOTE FOR HER. SHE CANNOT UNITE THIS NATION BY HER POLITICS OF DIVISION AND SO MUCH HATRED IN HER TONE. IF A DEMOCRAT CAN CALL MCCAIN A REPUBLICAN MORE EXPERIENCED, THEN THAT DEMOCRAT SHOULD BE OFF THE TRAIL. SHE WILL DO ANYTHING AND SAY ANYTHING FOR POWER.

CNN will not post anything negative about Hillary Clinton, I wonder why??? Seems you guys have something invested. I'm switching over to Fox or MSNBC, at least their news reporting is not biased......

Hillary Clinton supporters if you don't admit anything else admit that your candidate is quite the b_t_ c.

Monster Hillary, what do u have to say now, why dont u fire the guy that compared Obama to ken star, do u really want to go there. You are reminding the pipo of your husbands past infedilities or is he still one.
What is your campaign up too? Shame on you Hillary shame on you. I pray that you get the nomination and all of obamas supporters to vote for mccain okey. I think mccain will make a better president than you. He is more qualified than u right? And dont even think about clinton-obama ticket, noone wants to be around you and your drama king husband and your so called daughter. shame on all of you. You disgust me.

Enough, Clinton Enough. You cry so much how hard it is to run this race. If you stop picking up the kitchen sink to throw at Obama every opportunity you get you would'nt be so tired.

The american people are really getting turned off by this entire process and what once seem like a historical moment in time to remember is turning into a complete circus and Clinton you're the biggest clown in the show.

Now, I don't work for Obama and I would never work for you ..... So I guess I will never have to resign, or have you reject or denounce me.

Stop acting like a monster and remember that you're a lady first a former first Lady at that.......

I just want to know if there is any teeth to hillary's advisors talking to canada about nafta, and if so why it isn't being covered by the best political team on television

Well it's true there are a lot months between now and Jan 2009, who knows what will happen in Iraq during meantime? (Unless the Al Queda in Iraq keeps briefing Hillary ahead of time). Will Hillary draft a plan to withdraw all US troops in Iraq now, and STICK with it no matter what happens there?

CNN will not post anything negative about Hillary Clinton, I wonder why??? Seems you guys have something invested. I'm switching over to Fox or MSNBC, at least their news reporting is not biased.....

This election will kill my joy for politics. It reminds me how 99.9% of it is BS and how 99.9% of voters are clueless.

Hillary is in no position to talk. She was part of the administration that gave us NAFTA, which she is now trying to disclaim any ownership in.

And she compared Obama to Ken Star! WOW!!!

This woman is desperate!!!

Talk about reaching!!!!!!!!!!!

YES WE CAN!!!!!!!!!!! OBAMA 08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YES WE WILL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What Powers said doesn't have to be the oopinion of mr. Obama. And we can not be held accountable for words or mistakes of others. The are advisers .. so the give .... advice. That does not implicate that what they advise or say is the actual plan or decision that will be accepted or promoted by anyone they've advised.

This is turning into a soap opera, where the one who can be more sneeky, mean or distort the words of the other gets more attention or votes.

The way we act, walk and talk regarding other people often says more about ourselves. Quit the mud throwing on the playground and start behaving like real presidential candidates.

At this point if the phone rings none of these candidates are in the position to pick it up!!!

CNN will not post anything negative about Hillary Clinton, I wonder why??? Seems you guys have something invested. I'm switching over to Fox or MSNBC, at least their news reporting is not biased.

there she goes again..aint we tired...

CNN

I am trying to get my comment posted. I repeated it by shortening it
without success

TOM

I will never help put a Scorpio in office.They are highly emotional and dangerous.Remember Agnew for just one example.

why are we buying this crap.. i just wish it was all over..............

....same with NAFTA.

Nice try Hill,
get over it

Gee, Hillary Clinton is really an evil monster, she just won't stop attacking.

Well it's true there are a lot months between now and Jan 2009, who knows what will happen in Iraq during meantime? (Unless the Al Queda in Iraq keeps briefing Hillary ahead of time). Hillary will draft a plan to withdraw all US troops in Iraq, no matter what happens there?

My God, such a terrible thing, waiting for FACTS before choosing a course of action! Of course, that didn't stop the esteemed Sen. Clinton from authorizing "military action" in Iraq. Facts are for lesser people.

I am really concerned about how Mrs. Clinton has handled her campaign.She is determined to WIN and will do it at at any cost.This is NOT a good thing for our country. If she is the nominee, I will definitely vote for Mccain.

.........AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH..............

........I SHOULD HAVE BEEN A LIBERAL, NOT BETRAY THEM...............

........AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH..........ITS HOT, ITS HOT..............

.........AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH..............

Obama intends to be a committee president that heavily relies on advisors. Vote CLINTON and let's get this mess of a country turned around fast!

I despise Hillary more than ever now.. She is the worst person on the face of this earth... I am 1000% democrat but you know what if she wins, my vote is going republican..

I don't care is McCain is good or bad, I simply don't. She is the absolutely disgusting and can stoop as low as it gets to win the nomination.

There are millions of democrats and so many more independents that will either not vote or vote for McCain if Hillary wins...

I am even considering Nader....

Hillary you are out of my system for good....

Barack is an honest man with so much integrity..

CNN will not post anything negative about Hillary Clinton, I wonder why??? Seems you guys have something invested. I'm switching over to Fox or MSNBC, at least their news reporting is not biased...

It almost turns my stomach just looking at her.

Maybe im missing something here but could someone let me know exactly how Barack is ment to be deceiving voters? As far as i can tell her comments were honest about the situation and ofcourse clinton and obama need to chat to the joint chiefs on any strategy to pull troops out etc etc.

She was forced to resign for telling the truth....at least someone is in this campaign. None of the three candidates' actions with regard to Iraq will vary by much once they're in office. They're all going to leave some troops there and the timeline for the ones that do come home will be within a few months of each other.

CNN will not post anything negative about Hillary Clinton, I wonder why??? Seems you guys have something invested. I'm switching over to Fox or MSNBC, at least their news reporting is not biased!!!

Well obviously Obama DID NOT USE VERY GOOD JUDGEMENT WHEN HE BROUGHT HER ONTO HIS TEAM. I guess this is indicitive of more bad judgements to come.

OMG, Hillary, the "Queen of Deceit "accusing Obama of "deceiving" voters? Has she no shame nor sense of ethics?

CNN will not post anything negative about Hillary Clinton, I wonder why??? Seems you guys have something invested. I'm switching over to Fox or MSNBC, at least their news reporting is not biased!

I sure hope Obama uses this opportunity to pounce on Clinton's comments. Why would you commit to firm date if you don't have all of the information available to you. Obama's advisor was too honest for her own good. There is know way any one will pull out of Iraq if all the evidence points to a possible WWIII. Let's play out the scenario three years from now if we pull out without securing that country.

1. Al queda throw's fuel on the secretarian violence flame.
2. All out civil war. Shiite vs. Sunni
3. Iran feels its in there interest to helps the shiites either covertly or explicitly.
4. Saudi Arabia feels it in there interest to help the sunni's
5. Kurds in northern iraq, get sick of the all the blood shed and defect to turkey.
6. In the mist of all this chaos, someone launches missiles over to our allies in either kuwait and/or Israel.
7. Gas prices continue to skyrocket.
8. Enter the US, China, and Russia to protect there interest.

To make a promise without having all the information is political suicide and wrong. But then again, not everyone is well informed and falls for everything.

Wow! How MONSTER she is in your photo.

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

How is this different from what Obama has said all along? If there is any American out there who don't think the troop withdrawal plans should be based on what is happening on the ground at any given moment, they should do us a favor and not vote.

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

Its true, commitment to a plan now makes it harder to change your plan if something outside of your control changes because you look like a liar later on.

I'm glad Hillary says she wants to start withdrawing troops within 60 days if she becomes president, but if something changes between then and now, and she can't do it, she's going to look like a liar.

If the shoe fits ! Good for her !

Hillary needs to shut up!!!!!
Doesnt she ever get sick of going negative!!!!
She is the most repulsive person I have ever seen
Senator Obama is so much above her in character its like night and day!!
Focus on Obama for a change, at least he is a positive candidate!
Is there anything else she can rant about!!
its really getting monotonous!
go Obama 08

Oh here we go, Clintonites. Now, before you post your accusations, please read that post again, and carefully. Obama is still committed to beginning an immediate troop withdrawal.

And, for the RECORD, Clinton has NOT been consistent on her position to begin a withdrawal within 60 days. I can't believe CNN would print that lie without a qualification!

Though I think the line is a bit misconstrued, it is an indication of Obama's inexperience at an executive level that he is not able to stay on top of his staff. That or he is indeed all talk.

I'm sure his blind following will turn a blind eye to this as well. The man is an elegant speaker, but that is not a basis for a good president. I have yet to meet an Obama follower who can actually discuss his policies.

So let me get this straight:

Clinton calls for Obama's adviser to step down for calling her a Monster for deceiving Ohio voters, then Clinton immediately turns around and claims Obama is attempting to deceive voters... Maybe Clinton should be the one to step down.

Can you hold any more of a double standard?!

Yeah, but Hillary is a monster (small M).

hey obama lovers, where's your little hero with something to say about the bomb blast in nyc?

talking about change doesn't mean that it will be a change for the better, wake up and realize before it's too late for all of us!

halle berry says she'll follow him anywhere, well she sure has good judgment: first husband beat her second one cheated on her. don't be a fool like berry and get sweet talked by someone who has no proven track record of effecting anything worthwhile.

How can the Clinton campaign hunt down Obama advisor conversations, yet not release documents? What about the Clinton 2006 taxes? The blocking of pardon documents? Be transparent Hillary and stop trying to distract the voters from what matters most in a President. The Clintons can not be trusted.

"It was over-the-top; however, the erratic mixing of misty declarations of being honored to run with Senator Obama with bellowing "Shame on you" and praising McCain to undermine Obama (and Democratic chances in November) is disturbing."

I couldn't agree more with that statement..........

The queen of spin at it again. How sad for America that this is who you would consider worthy of the Presidency. I never understood what people meant when they described her as polarizing. But now I do and she has made it abudantly clear, she will stoop to anything to win. Americans have such bad memories...why don't you Hillary supporters do some research on the Clintons PLEASE. Twenty years of Bush and Clinton dirty politics is more than enough.

Looks like a complete Obama campaign meltdown. At least his advisers are finally shedding some light on what he really thinks and believes.
Now I'm just waiting for one of his advisers to admit to us that Senator Obama was never really serious about being President, but since he's slightly ahead right now he figured he might as well keep going!

Hillary is indeed a monster. An inconsistent, hotheaded sociopath with uneducated followers. Only she could convince so many idiots that she is "experienced." There is no question about it, the dems have been duped by the clintons again. So sad, but so deserved.

This is just noise. Everybody knows that he is committed to getting the troops out–he's the one who voted against the war in the first place. Clinton was the one jumping in with both feet.

No matter who wins, the next president will have to make a judment about how fast and where to move troops in consultation with other countries to maximize the safety and security of Iraq. Clinton would be no different.

Is Hillary serious? America will be ruined if she is President. It is clear that you have to consult the people on the ground to know what is going on before you react. This is bananas!!!!!!!!!!!
How can you criticize Obama and your plan calls for the same thing!!!!
HILLARY, GET A FLIPPING CLUE. ANYONE VOTING FOR HER SHOULD THINK TWICE!!!!!!!!

Look at that wild look in her eye. When Hillary attacks.

If this monster is the person America wants as their next president, then we don't deserve hope or change.

Does anyone believe anything that comes out of this persons mouth?
The woman who cried wolf.... Wonder If Ohio believes her?

Big deal – they both intend to formalize their strategies once they enter office. I'd hope so. Is this the best she can do? Deliberate distortions are lies.

CNN, Why won't you report on the fact that the Canadian Government released a statement that it was Hillary Clinton's campaign that contacted their government about NAFTA. The Canadian government stated that following:

to tell them not to worry because the Nafta threats were mostly political posturing. Brodie, the Canadian official, released a statement that "someone from Ms Clinton's campaign had even contacted Canadian diplomats to tell them not to worry because the Nafta threats were mostly political posturing."

Also, why have you not pointed out that Hillary's own campaign communications chair has slandered Obama calling him Ken Starr. Why has Howard Wolfson not been asked to resign.

Why have you not reported that of all the co-defendents in the Rezko trial, three out of the five are connected to Hillary Clinton via large donations (in fact larger than the donations given to Obama). Of course, Hillary's campaign has not returned this money or donated it to charity as Senator Obama has.

The double standard being applied to Hillary Clinton does not benefit Americans.

Here we go again. Double speak and smear. The Democratic Party is fracturing while McCain is looking better and better even to Independents and moderate Democrats. I find myself, a lifelong Democrat, considering McCain. I could not vote for any ticket with Hillary Clinton's name on it. Hopefully, there are enough of us who really are tired of the politics of the past and who are paying attention to what is going on in this campaign to bring about a positive result, meaning Obama as our next president.

How is this a bad thing that he needs access to all of the intelligence before he makes a full decision? Just because Hillary doesn't read information before she makes a decision (Iraq war vote) doesn't mean she should denounce those who will consider all the information.

Obama's campaign has rightfully dismissed the services of this adviser. Power failed to realise that Obama is running for the presidency in the United States and that her comments to a British tabloid would not translate well here. Clinton has behaved monstrously and her recent wins in Ohio and Texas were due to the Swift-Boating tactics of her supporters. If Obama can come under fire for wearing Somali ceremonial dress, not wearing a flag pin and where he puts his hand during the pledge, you can imagine the crap Power's comments would generate! Clinton caters to old selfish people who still want to make a mess of this world regardless of the young and energetic people whom Obama electrifies.

Why isnt anyone talking about how the Clinton campaign was the one who gave Canada the wink on NAFTA.

There is no level she will not stoop to, no lie she will not tell, no arm she will not twist if it means she gets what she wants. I'm sick of her. She's not only lost my vote in the primary, but in the general election as well.

OMG this is ridiculous wheter its 16 months or 20 months no one can predict to the minute. They can only set a timeline and his timeline is 16 months. as for NAFTA!
just go to
theglobalandmail.com

World
Clintons "Leak"

Typical Clinton News Network reporting...

Here we go again.

Common sense seems to have deserted Sen Clinton.
You could have a well laid out plan today, and find that events have changed next year, would you not change your plans?.

It is such a shame that Sen Clinton can successfully distort things and relay to people who simply fail to read and conduct their own research, exactly what she wants them to think.

Again, Sen. Clinton takes us all for idiots.

At least Obama is willing to evaluate the situation when the time comes.. Clinton unilaterally deciding to withdraw troops within 60 days regardless of the situation sounds more like George Bush, who refuses to adjust to changing circumstances.

More BS coming from Clinton. I guess Canada denying the susbstance of the memo she keeps referring too is not valid enough.

And its okay for her to meet with high-level military and intelligence advisors but not okay for Obama to do.

CLINTON WERE ARE YOUR TAXES?

ALSO USATODAY REPORTED THAT YOU AND YOUR HUSBAND ARE WITHHOLDING THE CLINTON LIBRARY RECORDS FROM BEING RELEASED.

Why does CNN continue to report innuendo as news instead of actually investigate whether it is true or not. The Canadian government had clearly stated the NAFTA comment was not made, and in fact could have been started by Clinton's camp.

The stance on Iraq is exactly what Clinton has stated...to get her "advisors" together and map out the best case scenerio to get American troops out safely.

In fact Obama stated clearly during the last debate that he wasn't to get them out as safely, quickly and carefully.

This woman makes me ill!

hillary is trully a monster and aim so glad someone said something about it. I dont feel sorry for her at all. She is a bully ad a monster.

As a Obama supporter, Hillary is making McCain look very good to me. If she wins the nomination I will do everything I can to get other Obama supporters to campaign and vote for McCain. Powers was right she is a MONSTER and total phoney.

Politics as Usual from the Obama Camp.
This man is a Phony!

Keep Drinking the Kool-Aid People!

Obama is about "CHANGE"??? Talking out of both sides of your mounth is not new sonny.....You really are green. One term Sen. in over his head...Seems your getting your little hand caught in the cookie jar

Hillary is a monster and will bring this country to the brink of destruction. She is attacking like a rabid dog and the points she keeps attacking on are things that are part of logic on Obama's behalf.

Of course you have to look at what's going on in January of 09 to make a valid decision on the best way to exit the war.

If she gets the nomination I'll personally sit out and watch as America goes down the road of eventual destruction. But I'll be watching from Canada!

So she's saying that no matter what changes occur from now until she is elected president, she won't take any new information into consideration when making plans on the fate of our troops?

That is pretty monstrous to be so careless and stubborn with something so important. Sounds like something Bush would do.

I am dubbing her campaign, the CLINTON CIRCUS.

Right on the target. Mr. Obama is deceiving voters from the very beginning.

Well it seems like a pretty sensible statement from the former advisor…I mean c’mon people WHOEVER wins has to speak with the joint chiefs and top aids on the fields in Iraq to find the best possible plans for withdrawal. In January 2009 Iraq could be in total ciaos and a possible withdrawal could possible be out of the question. Or these terrorist could be so powerful by then that we have no choice but to stand and fight. Circumstances change all the type which means a plan will have to adjust to those changes….I really wish the Clinton campaign would stop trying to play the American population like freaking fools. Twisting sensible and responsible statements into a sinister and supposedly naive statement….but then again…I was the American population would stop FALLING for the tactics as well .lol…does anyone agree with “The Great One”?

Obama and his staff keep on stepping in it.

Hillary has said she would start to withdraw troops within 60 days.
She has consitantly said she would discuss all the option with the military before proceeding. She has also said there are many things to consider like Iraq's who have helped Americans, and may other problems.
Obama has said he would be out within 16 months that is it no middle ground. Now his adviser who has to resign for calling Hillary a monster now it comes out Obama is also telling other countries he might not be out within 16 months. Politics as ussual.

How is this deceiving voters? Of course he has to consult with people and the best case scenerio is to be out in 16 months. However, it is important to be cautious because we want to secure the safety of our troops as they withdraw. If she wants to discuss deceiving voters lets discuss her views on Iraq. She told the American people she voted on the war based on the information she received. She never read the information she received specifically the Iraq report. Before she begins accusing people of deceiving voters (which Obama has not), she should look in the mirror. In addition, last Monday she stated Obama deceived the voters by talking to Canada about NAFTA. It turns out she was the one who had the conversation with Canada not Obama. It is you Hillary deceiving the voters again. SHAME ON YOU.

Hillary accusing Obama of deceiving voters??? That iS PRICELESS! What a sanctimonious hypocrite.

Over on the Washington Times newspaper online, they are reporting a $700,000 windfall Bill Clinton received in dealings with Armand Rousso who was recently convicted in some shady dealings. Check out Washington Times online.

I'm still waiting to see something on the Peter Paul vs Clinton campaign finance fraud case in California as we speak. Unlike the Rezko trial that didn't list Obama as a witness – ALL of the Clintons (including Chelsea) are listed as witnesses.

Obama please respond to this Bish!! You have said repeatedly that you will remove combat troops in 16 months. Re state your position for clarity PLEASE!!!

This is only the begining. Wait till more major stuff hits the fan, clearly showing that Obama is really all talk and no action, without any real and practical plan of action, and has been simply feeding the people what they want to hear! Perhaps Senator Obama would benefit from 8 years as Vice President that could prepare him for his 8 years as President. This is really a no brainer!!!

In an effort to calm the vitrolic hatred that is spreading throughout the comments on the vatrious ticker items, let's be clear of the rules in advance.

1. It is OK for Hillary to pounce on anything Obama says or does. It is OK for Hillary and her organization to make negative characterizations of Obama and the people who surround him. It is OK for hillary and crowd to call Obama names. It is OK for Hillary to try to change the rules of the game mid-stream for her own personal game. It is OK for Hillary to make unfounded charges and to continue to make them even after they've been denied by all involved (even the disinterested parties). It is OK for Hillary to cry foul anytime her own documented words come back to haunt her.

2. None of the above is permissible for Obama.

oops, didn't read the end of the article.

She's grandstanding again. Even Pelosi didn't commit Democrats to a date, when she disputed McCain's 100 year plan.

Obama,

I am going to try to be fair to you here. You need to round your camp and get to attacking Clinton on issues of national security, economy, etc..

Not freakin tax returns, Bill Clinton from 1992 to 2000, etc...

Your problem is you don't realize the American people are viewing you as a 'SOFTY." Get tough on issues not calling people/candidates foul names b/c your group could not win on March 4, 2008 the nomination.

I have heard Clinton and Obama both speak probably upwards of about 100 times in the last 2 months, and they both have said they would withdrawal troops from Iraq in a timley manner. Now if Obama says he's going to do it he better mean hes going to do it. She has said consistently that she will meet with her national security advisor, joints cheifs of staff and others in implementing a plan that would start to withdrawal troops within 60 days. I haven't decided who I'm going to vote for but I'm certainly leaning towards Clinton it seems like they both play politics, but she at least has a leg to stand when it comes to foreign policy and fresh ideas for the economy.

This is killing me... with all the baggage and sleaze surrounding HRC why isn't Obama and/or his campaign hitting back hard...or at least RESPONDING to these attacks. Jesus. It would be so easy to make her look silly. He will probably end up losing if he doesn't start spewing venom back in her face. C'mon Barack! Quit taking a vacation from the serious business at hand!

This is only the beginnin. Wait till more major stuff hits the fan, clearly showing that Obama is really all talk and no action, without any real and practical plan of action, and has been simply feeding the people what they want to hear! Perhaps Senator Obama would benefit from 8 years as Vice President that could prepare him for his 8 years as President. This is really a no brainer!!!

This woman will stop at NOTHING to get back in the whitehouse. I

t's a shame that she's willing to completely disregard and disrespect the Obama supporters at the cost of winning the nomination. Doesn't she realize that she will turn off all of us and will untimately lose in November (God forbid if she makes it that far)?

I think she would eat her young just to get into the White House

No Hillary, you aren't a monster....

What a pathetic joke her campaign is.

What's the deal here? Power is right to say that Obama will need to consult with commanders on the ground about the best way to get the troops out. She didn't say that he wasn't going to withdraw the troops, just that any planning now, that didn't take into account operational data, was preliminary. Big deal. Hillary, find something better to attack him about because you are looking like a crank (even more than usual).

YOU DID NOT EVEN READ THE NIE REPORT HILLARY. How dare you complain when you also voted NO on the Byrd,Durbin and Levin amendments that would of gave us some leverage on Iraq. SHAME ON YOU HILLARY SHAME ON YOU. You hypocrite.

Why isn't CNN covering the NAFTA story out of Canada and the involvement of the Clinton campaign? Clinton complains of how she is treated by the media and everyone buys into it. Her campaign is the one deceiving the public.

Obama supporters cannot cry foul on this one. Clinton has a valid point to discuss these comments. This is what Clinton has been saying all along that you can't guarantee the American voter that all troops could be withdrawn without consulting with the generals and the ones on the ground. If I see one comment mocking Clinton on this issue it will just prove that Obama supporters really don't care about the issues.

Clinton said. “I am committed to beginning a withdrawal within 60 days. I have said that consistently.”

Actually, Hillary you voted for this war which will go down as the biggest foreign policy foul up in American History.

Hillary, you have no credibility on this issue.

It is amazing how people have been brainwashed by the empty speeches delivered by the candidate who is "just words"

How much hatred can you deliver in a nation that believes in God? And even if you do not, you cannot put people down like that without knowing them in real life.

Compare the resumes from both Obama and Hillary and you will learn that Clinton has in fact the best resume to run for President of America.

Facts and no words, unity and no more hatred

VOTE FOR

HILLARY 08

Clinton herself told voters she'll withdraw troops in 60 days. Is she sticking to that?

"“You can’t make a commitment in, whatever month we’re in now, in March of 2008, about what circumstances are going be like in January 2009,”"

Well – duh! What if in 12 months, something changes? What if there's an invasion from Turkey and Iran, and now you have a new situation? What if every member of Al Qaeda leaves Pakistan and Afghanistan and moves to Iraq? Or, if suddenly the violence stops?

You can't say in March "I will do this in January 2009", when we're not in January 2009. You say "I intend to do this – but I reserve the right to change my mind if things change".

Duhhhh. For Clinton to say otherwise shows she's just trying to score stupid points.

I really despise this woman but she is a political genius. She understands one simple fact that the Barack camp does not. The majority is intellectually lazy. Frame an argument a certain way no matter how false and conniving and you sway people away from the substance and truth.

Karl Rove was brilliant in his understanding of this.

Barack, wake up before this MONSTER actually succeeds in framing you in the way that suits her. And I must say she is not too far of . . . . .

It seems the Truth about Obama's real intentions have been all along. Win at any cost, even if you have to lie to the American People! And "Monster" are something that creeps around in the dark. It seems the real 'Monsters" here are Obama and his Band of Juvenile Segregates. Looks like they have been "Creeping" around in the dark behind the backs of the American People with their own little agenda. Shameful Obama, that's not Change, that's just plain old Washington Politics! Did you learn that one from Kennedy?

But... she IS.

A manic, schizo monster with no limit to her ability to be mean and nasty. Turning Obama blacker for an ad? COME ON!!! That's as bad as it gets, people.

I'd rather give her an award than a resignation. Kudos to Power for calling it like it is.

There's no way of knowing what the situation will be like in Iraq in January of 2009. The idea that Clinton would rely on a plan crafted without the input of the military generals is ridiculous and the height of irresponsibility. Does Clinton really want to hammer this message? It kind of makes her look naive.

She is such a liar and a hypocrite and she will say anything to win the nomination.

I have backed Clinton since she declared she was going to run. I've let all my friends know they had better not try to put her down in front of me. But after her sarcastic celestial choir bit and now saying John Mccain is more ready to be president than Obama I find I can no longer support her and if she get the nomination I'll probaby vote or write in Nader. If John Mccain wins this election Hillary will be the one that gave it to him. I now believe the only reason she won Texas and Ohio was because the republicans crossed over as they were told to do.

This wont get posted but...

Hillary is the missleading voters queen if you were to look at Peter Paul vs Clinton and Norman Hsu just to name a few. As linton said look at the resumes and ask who you would want to hire. Well just based on these two situations alone I feel Obam has a cleaner and clearer picture of what this voter wants to see in the Whitehouse. It is amazing a woman gts so upset over a childish comment and yet can slig so much mud to supply a mud factory for life.

Pathetic if you ask me.. I say suck it up and play nice after all thats hat I teach my children to do.

Obama '08

Power is right. Hillary don't be so stupid!!!!

ah! now scrutney of mr. obama, it's about time.

Every time Hillary does this kind of stuff, tearing down her oponent, she reminds people of all the worst of the Clinton years, and reinforces Obama's argument that the US needs a new style of politics.

And her comment was bad how? It makes perfect sense. Obama should rely on Generals to make a detailed plan for withdrawl. Even clinton said she would be advised by military people for the plan.

And things do change in War clinton, so of course Obama will have to change his plan for withdrawl in the event of a change in Iraq! Clinton you are so stupid sometimes.

This guy is spiraling down at full speed. His other foreign policy advisor yesterday said on MSNBC that neither Hillary OR OBAMA were ready to take that 3 a.m. phone call. He really needs to drop out of the race now. He has just totally given John McCain all the ammunition he needs to win this hands down. He is not a unifer – he is dividing the democratic party.

Give me a break!

SoLet me get this right, Sen. Clinton and her crew, can say whatever, but once someone calls her out, she's a victim?

Clinton and her campaign team are throwing mud and calling Sen. Obama, anything but his name.

Also, she has her nerve commenting on anyones campaign. Atleast Obama's camp is not fighting amongst themselves.

Poorly ran campaign = poor leadership

Hillary is desperate.. her it is Obama fires an adviser for name calling her and she's still on the attack.

If Clinton has said consistently that she would begin a withdrawal within 60 days, so has Obama. They both spend lots of time trying to make people believe the withdrawal will be immediate and complete, but if you take time to listen to either of their deeper talking points, they have both indicated that they will not act unilaterally without the advice of aides and experts on the subject. Isn't this what Bush is hated for doing – being a maverick and doing his own thing regardless of the facts? So why would we want Clinton or Obama to act like that? The campaign issue here is the way Clinton keeps throwing stuff at Obama that is so twisted up and often no different than herself, and people KEEP BELIEVING IT!!! When will people WAKE UP!!!

What the heck is she talking about? Both candidates would adjust their plans according to the best information they have available at the time they would take office and based on advice from the people on the ground. There is no deception here... except Clinton continuing to sling mud whenever possible.

This lady is so insane!

But anyhow her resign just means OBAMA and his supporters are desperate and mad now.

Let us see what's new tomorrow from obama? Any change? Is this kind of change what Obama means?

2008 Hillary!

It's getting tiresome taking things out of context for your media "shock." Too bad Clinton's trying to kill off the only viable candidate the Democratic party has for this coming election... Shame on you Hillary! Shame on you!

Actually, Hillary has not consistently said that she would begin a withdrawal in 60 days. She always hedges on that and says things like "depending on conditions" or she will fail to specify that she will withdraw all troops.

Both Obama and Hillary are deceiving the voting public on how they will handle the Iraq war.

All you have to do is listen closely to what they say. They always use wiggle words so that they cannot be held to virtually anything they are saying to get elected. Because that is exactly what they are doing – saying whatever it takes to get elected.

What? You didn't understand what Hillary meant when she said she "finally found her voice"? What else could it mean but that she found what the people wanted to hear?

So he has plans, he just doesn't plan on using them. Sounds like NAFTA. BTW on NAFTA, Andrea Mitchell talked to Obama staff today and they did talk with Canada about NAFTA! I admire Obama, but everything is too abstract with him.

Hillary 08

Hillary is unbelievable!! What gall!! The sad thing for me is that I used to like her and Bill. Now the mere thought of them in the White House makes me sick. If she steals this nomination from Obama, you'll find this Democrat voting for McCain.

As we say in MN, uffda! With advisers like this Obama doesn't need to worry about Hillary crashing his campaign, it's happening from within.

So to Obama supporters, if he can't control his own campaign, he should just drop out. That seems to be what you keep saying about Hillary.

Must be hard to take when this stuff comes up to bite Obama on the butt!

What is up with all of this Clinton spin??? Is CNN afraid that SNL will make another skit of them?

So Ob ama's adviser apologizes and resigns over calling Hillary Clinton "a monster." Well, Hillary is "a monster." She lies, cheats, secretes, calls herself "a feminist" when she's a proxy for her husband Bill's third term, does more faces than Lon Chaney, and worse. So why apologize for a honest description? Hillary and no one in her camp apologize for their outrageous slurs and behavior. To quote Bill, "Give me a break."

Again, Clinton will do anything and twist anything to her liking.

What she said was the 16 month plan was a best case scenario. If there is some unforeseen happening that of course the 16 month plan may not work. If Clinton were to say that she doesn't agree with that she is lying.

She is again doing everything she can cheat and lie her way into the nomination.

What Hillary should be asking is "Why would someone call me a monster?" Instead, she just went along with her monstrous ways, circulating the story to news reporters, just keeping up more mess. Because this lady resigned, Hillary is going to go to bed tonight thinking she won a battle. I wish I knew I her number to call her at 3 a.m., I would really let her know what's on my mind.

Wow...Obama is really in a mess....Just words, Just words.

Let's see,

Obama says his plan is to withdraw troops, but should he become our nation's president, he will rely on input from military generals and peolple directly involved with how the war efforts are being waged. To me this sounds like an intelligent use of available resources. War can often be unpredictable, and he wants to make the best descisions for all involved. No wonder I'm voting for him.

Tis Billary, to be fair – is a monster. she can twist and turn and spin and lie about just anything to get elected.

SHAME YOU BILLARY!!!!

Just getting back from meeting Senator Clinton in Hattiesburg, there is no doubt that she is drawing in the crowds and the support. The train depot where she spoke was filled with a very large and enthusiastic crowd. Been to two Hillary speakings in Mississippi over the past two days. There are a lot more Hillary supporters in Mississippi than the media tries to convey. Go Hillary 08! Many Mississippians believe in you!

Sounds like a monster to me.

My prediction for this evening: Clinton will be regretting her comments.

Obama 08!

How the hell is she going to withdraw troops in 60 days? that means we are losing war and chaos in IRAQ......

Shut Up Hillary...what deceiving voters..you have been deceiving everyone..
WHERE ARE YOUR TAX RETURNS??

clinton stop trying to act as if u have never said anything as negative. get off it you hypocrit
