obama's getting desperate. polls are dropping for him, he has got to start a negative campaign. Goodbye mister nice guy

I just read the comment above by Terry and agree completely. The Obama camp has said they would run a clean campaign, yet attack Sen Clinton, callingg her "dishonnest". That in itself is simply unacceptable and actually shameful. There should be limits to what Obam's campaign says about another democrat, just as they expect sen Clinton to do.
I am so disappointed with Obama that if he were the nominee, I as a lifelong Democrat will join the millions of other Democrats who will vote for McCain.

Dishonest? Just because Hillary never tells the truth, is that any reason to call her dishonest? Wait............

I agree with most of you all. I am an Obama supporter but I am surprised and disappointed by these words. Come on Barack!!! I know you have been under the gun recently but don't stoop to the level of the other candidates!!!

Obama must be in trouble. His change of tactics: Postive to Negative are another hint of his true character. Obviously he is attempting to deflect the recent discoveries of his racist character. Obama not only needs to deflect, he needs to withdraw. His divisive campaign is not about unity or hope, but, in fact, the same old, same old.

The flawed candidate is Obama.

Clinton mislead voters? You kidding ..right.
Obama is the liar here. He talks about honestly and judgement?
Ah, wait all his boneheaded judgement has an answer or an excuse for everything.
If he does not agree to do -over elections in Michigan and Florida they are not voting for him in the general elections. Richardson to endorse obama today. Richardson is a coward and he does not speak for all latinos. I guessing obama promised him to become his V.P.

jgzeger-The polls that you are referring to are weekly polls, taken with a smaller sample and are unreliable.

Beans, your comments are pretty sexist. There are plenty of moody men in this world.
No one's perfect, not even Obama.

I believe American need an agent of change, but believe me, it not the change of commitment, it's not the change of positions to reflex public interest.

Also remember that there is an old saying "the more you work the more mistakes you have", thus, having no mistake while doing nothing doesnt promise anyone that one will not make mistake when doing somethings. In fact, those who had committed mistake in the past can learn how to avoid making mistake in the future.

God bless America!

I have to laugh at these statements. Clinton does not pay Obama any attention.

I think Obama is reaching and trying to deflect all the media around Rev. Wright.

Obama, please stand on your own two feet.

"She is not seen as trustworthy by the American people," (especially me!!)
"Sen. Clinton likes to talk about do-over elections." "The only do-over election we might want to consider is in Ohio, since Sen. Clinton misled the voters in Ohio about her support of NAFTA."
"She would be a deeply flawed nominee."

OBAMA 08, 12!!!!!

People you better Open your EYE!!!!
or else vote Clinton and welcome President McCain and welcome to a war with Iran and the begginning of demise of this great country. But make sure not to complain when it start happening!!

For all that Obama promises change, whenever things are tough for him, he resorts to name-calling and dishonesty himself. FOCUS ON THE ISSUES OBAMA! Voters don't want to hear you calling people names, we want to hear how you are going to keep this country from sliding into a recession. Grow up and tell us how you plan to run this country.

Ok everyone say it with me. Obama is just another politician. He is no messiah. He is a lying corrupt politician.

I really hope the Superdelegates DO THEIR JOB and save us from an unelectable candidate at the convention.

I didnt hear anyone protesting about becoming a superdelegate (all knowing their role) before it posed a risk to barack obama... did you?

This is not a negative comment. I'll concede that some of the wording could be better. Saying that she was flat out dishonest might have been strong, but saying she mislead people would probably be fair. It, however, is not negative to point to her past political position, then to her current speeches and point out that she's shifted her position. That's sticking to facts and published accounts about current and relevant issues.

-Aaron, OH

Why is it that Obama is attacking Clinton when he is simply asking her to validate her claim that she has all this experience. CLINTON ue d the "KITCHEN SINK" campaign littered with misleading facts prior to the Texas and Ohio primaries. He has taken the high road on more than one occasion, and when he had his "RED PHONE" moment, he stood up like a true leader and didn't hide behind surrogants. She misled the voters on NAFTA, her experience and now that Bill was pictured greeting Rev. Wright after being invited to the white house (remember only a selected few and they were given background checks), In October she stated the Florida and Michigan votes wouldn't count and SIGNED a pledge, now that she is behind and need them, all of a sudden they should count, FLIP/FLOP. And she want them to count but only the voters she prefers, a revote, means EVERY voter revotes. She is such a FAKE. She wants to ride on and take credit for the good things during the Clinton Presidency, well, Senator Clinton, you take the Good with the BAD. I am totally disgusted with the way that you have run this campaign and I switched MIDSTREAM. I can't take back the support that I gave Clinton in the past, but now it's all going to Obama. Thank you Gov. Richardson for your support and not buying into the Clinton Machine. We need something new and different than the status quo in the WH.

Trustworthy? Did you look that word up in your Harvard dictionary, Obama? And judgement? How do you like your 1.8 million dollar home? I think it's great you are going negative. And keep pounding the women who compete with you, like your grandmother, Ferraro, Hillary, anyone who is white! Hillary is sounding better every day.

Clinton Spokesperson: "At this point, it’s no secret that the Obama campaign is in political hot water given the news stories of the last few weeks and is desperate to change the subject."

Let's think about this– By making this statement, what, exactly, is the Clinton campaign trying to imply? Perhaps they could be more specific as to "what" there is for Sen. Obama to be ashamed of.

You guys are so simple minded!

It would be a negative attack if he stated something that was unture... but it is now proven that she LIED to the voters in Ohio.
She championed NAFTA, but disowned it when it became unpopular.
THAT'S A TRUE STATEMENT!

There is nothing wrong with pointing out what your appontent lacks. But he's not running around yelling at Hilary in front of reporters the way she did.

Get a grip people!

There is a big difference between a clean campaign, and not pointing out flaws in your opponent.

W. Bush pushpollers had people ask voters if they'd support McCain if he had an illegitimate black baby. Thats dirty campaigning.

Clinton lied about Obama/Canada, with regards to NAFTA. Thats dirty campaigning.

When McCain says he disagrees with the Dems on Iraq, and points out the "negatives" to their plans, its not dirty campaigning.

When a politician points out a real flaw, without using "you're all gonna die" fear tactics (like Clinton's 3am phone call ad, /eyeroll) its not negative/dirty campaigning, its debating.

Bunch of freakin children on here.

Does this mean that Obama will vote for McCain if Hillary is the democratic candidate.. being so flawed and all

Hillary is as honest as any politician. That is not the issue.
I am not defending her as ALL are the same.
I find it funny that Obama keeps saying he is a different kind of politician. He is no better than her.

Terry if you chang your vote that means you wasn't planning to vote for me in the first place.

This is just another cheap attempt by worried Obama camp to turn the topic.

Clinton IS NOT a victim! Obama is echoing what the polls (i.e., voters) already know, Clinton is NOT to be trusted! Obama will have this nomination business wrapped up shortly. Please stop the bickering and help him win the general against McSame!!

Obama 08!!

look at all the lies hes made in just the last couple months. i wounder if that was a us paid meal that rev wright got in white house when he meet bill. god -- the us. i can see it now obama in the white house with rev wright and luis farrakan hating on the typical white americans and the us.

Obama, isn't your own campaign flawed if you're down by 12 percentage points over 1 week due to your alignment with the racist Reverend Wright? Your platform of words and unity and hope and the future and of transcendence has completely crumbled in a little more than a week. Talk about the pot calling the kettle black!

I guess political misleading is better than hiding behind your race.

Remember you can not critisize him if you do, he plays race card.

who cares it doesnt matter who u vote for any more. this country is baught and paid for many years ago. ALL HAIL CHINA

I want to thank the Republicans,Democrats and the Media for another election of having to choose the lessor of two evils or write in Elmer Fudd.

Obama is going to make a great leader!
Go Obama '08!

Here it comes... NAFTA and pardons are going to come to roost.

If she is so dishonest, why did Obama come to see Hillary when he first got into the Senate to ask her advice because he admired her so much? If she is so dishonest, why, in a 2004 interview, did Michelle Obama say that the politcal wife she most admired was Hillary Clinton?

Obama is just a divisive politician who will do anything to win.

What about Obama's serious charactor flaw as a member of the Trinity church in Chicago. How much more of this do we have to take!

Dear CNN,

Hi. You should turn that blog post on the context of Wright's sermon into a headlining article. Please? Think about it: you could be the first! You could save some face for having not been thorough to begin with.

Also, shame on you guys for having not been thorough to begin with.

Before we all start calling Obama by different names, perfom a search on the web and look for info on Hillary and the Clintons. See videos about them and there is plenty of info that backs the fact that Hillary will be a "deeply flawed nominee," and the Republicans will have a field day with her on the Nov election.

We need to overcome the race/gender card and look a who will be the best choice to win the White House in Nov 08 and remove the republicans. The clear choice is Obama.

I dare you to publish my first comment!
If not, shame on CNN

CNN, why are all my comments appearing with "Your comment is awaiting moderation" even yesterday's ones do appear in the article but have the same heading? what is going on? can you email me at my address telling me what is it?

You think you can be married to a president for 8 years and not get a real good idea of how things work? Of course she has the experience. It's this kind of nitpicking that has put me off obama in a BIG way recently.

I think the DNC should address Hillary and her shenanigans. She has managed to make this election a circus. But she's a Clinton, what else can we expect?

I'm so happy Barack has been able to rise above her antics and the American people have not let me down.

These types of comments from the Obama camp are another reason why I have a very Uncomfortable feeling about him. How ridiculous is it to come out and say that Hillary supported NAFTA when she was first lady just because she sat in a couple of meetings. They are guilty of manipulating and misleading the public because they must be psychic to know what she was thinking and doing in those meetings based on an appointment book entry. LOL...Politics of hope and change.....Really...Looks like more of the same old nonsense to me.

These are not the words of Obama, but a surrogate. I feel that both candidates have lost their voice in the midst of this chaotic primary. We all need to step back and allow the candidates to once again speak for themselves.

CNN, you are consistent. With every article and with your bias support of Barack Obama, you convert another to Hillary Clinton.

I never expect Anderson Cooper's fall from grace.

The problem is that, everyone says negative attacks are bad, then we see over and over that it works, even if it is completely irrelevant or false. Voters buy negative campaign very well, so it is sold to them over and over. Isn't it the case?

I'm surprised he didn't call her a "typical white person" like he called his grandmother yesterday.....And isn't it convenient that Obama HAS NO RECORD to examine! On any controversial votes in the Illinois Senate, he typically voted "present". That is NOT AN HONEST LEADER.

Lets be frank about the real issues here. Obama's campaign is in real touble here. His side talks a lot of talk about her throwing the kitchen sink strategy and Obama is the one who is desperate here to discredit her and take some of the glare off of himself in connection with his `

How can we trust Senator Clinton?????? She lied to the people of Ohio for votes!!! What's going on here?? If I was living in Ohio, I would be OUTRAGED!!!! I would expect here to come to my state and ask for a re-vote!!!

What we are seeing here folks is the Obama team attempting to put the nail on the coffin.

Does anyone see how nasty the Obama whiners are...this type of approach has been consistently taken by these people – this is not change – this is like the Swift Boaters of the Democrats against the Democrats. It has not stopped since the very beginning of his campaign – seems he get other to do his name calling – shoud we star calling him Teflon Obama. I am sick of it.

If this type of garbage does not stop and if Obama becomes the candidate, then I say vote for Nader and I am a pretty die hard Democrat – but I have had it.

Obama's true colors are coming out. From the beginning, Hillary has constantly been attacked, and time and time again she's risen above it. Obama is attacked, and he sinks. Hillary has proven she can survive attack after attack and come back on top. This is what it takes to be president. Hillary is ready. Obama is not.

Barack, tell us something we don't know. Anyone who thinks Hillary is an honest woman is simply dillusional.

So much for 'the new politics' then.

i cant see myself voting for such a hypocritical mantra.

Barack Obama is disgusting. His words against Clinton: "desperate" and "will do anything to get elected" and "status quo" ring truer to his campaign than any other. He is a lier and a fraud and I wouldn't vote for him if he were the last candidate on earth. I hope he gets what he deserves for his lies and divisive tactics: nothing.

We knew this in Texas where NAFTA benefits some and not others (e.g. Freidrich workers), so why were Ohio voters so "unknowing"? If Senator Clinton's base is blue collar older men & women, then what happened to their memories? I'm wondering if Ohio voters are having "buyer's remorse" (as Senator Clinton has coined) now?

It is not a negative campaign to point out the other candidate is greying out the truth. Reminds me of the current president. In every circumstace paint the picture rosy, even when most people know that it is not.
Clinton is counting on the ignorant vote, just like Bush did. C'mon people pull your heads out!

Obama/Edwards 08

Obama is looking more and more desparate as the American people learn who he really is. He is a flawed and toxic candidate.

Clinton=liar

The people around Obama always seem to say the wrong things. Get with the program people, we are trying to win the nomination. Stop all this negative stuff and just do your Job.

Gobama 08!!!

The Obama campaign will say anything to make Hillary look bad. So much for claiming they follow different politics.

Obama you might win the primary election, but won't win the general election. I know many people who will vote for McCain if Hillary loses the primary to Obama.

Would that be based on her record? How about we see Obama's schedule of events when he was a senator in IL for 8 years then we can verify then reach a reasonable conclusion. Coming from the people who talk about uniting the country and attends a church that literally divides the country is rather silly to believe. Hillary is a much better candidate than Barack. Honestly, if people knew what they know about Obama, he would probably not even be in this race at this point.

Oh now Hillary supporters will say " how can you attack Hillary- Obama is a fraud"

For GOD"S SAKE...he just told the TRUTH....

Dishonest politician...PLS go away

This is hard to believe... after all this media coverage about Obama's 20 plus relationship with his anti-American spirtual advisor, and his camp is saying Hillary's the flawed nominee. I don't think so.... I can see those commercials running over and over again connecting Obama to his past relationship with his former "spirtual advisor."
That means he will lose lots of votes and the election.

It's interested this is coming from them right after the polls have been indicating Hillary is favored now nationally as the nominee and fares better against McCain.

OH dear and with all the hate and vile obama and his supporters spew we should take THEIR word for gospel...sorta like obama's preacher and his hate and vile.

OBAMA CAMP IS RIGHT!

Hillary Clinton is very much a flowery facade with an insidious untrustworthy substance. I agree she is not worthy of any office of governing power. Her day in the sun is over.

geez, who's now doing the "dirty" politics? talking about being above the fray. give me a break obama!

I thought Senator Obama was going to stop his negative campaigning, but I guess this does not in include his staff, namely Plouffe. Inside of trying to attack Senator Clinton, tell me what Obama has done, and his plan for change in the future. He really has not given any specifics.

This is not about election.

We should stop Obama's church from preaching anti-America stuff, especially to young people. We should be responsible for the next generation.

No...she is a dishonest politician...we KNEW that...

Obama- good you too got it..though late...

Wow. I guess this is not considered going negative. I'm sure Obama followers will justify it as truth telling. The only truth you can tell is that she attended meetings on NAFTA–no one knows what was said there. The Obama camp has to make this stuff up because they asked for her records and the records show she was a very involved first lady. If there reasoning is that Clinton attended NAFTA meetings because she was pro-NAFTA, then it follows that Obama attended Rev Wright's church because...

Yep, this is the "change" we've all been waiting for!

Would be deeply flawed???lol Would be???

It is the truth. There are too many skeletons and scandals and lies on the side of Cllinton to be effective in a general election. The republicans would be able to bring down the democrats in a snap.

Senator Obama IS the better candidate and will make a wonderful President of the UNITED States of America!

We want a revote in OHIO!

NOBAMA is the "flawed" candidate ... that is my opinion ... but then, I am just a "typical white person" ... so my opinion is only based on racism rather than the facts!!!!!!!!!!

Didn't need him to tell me. If you ever read a book or did any research, I already knew HRC was a fraud.

I like Obama but his supporters sound more like Repblicans than Democrats and this is very troublesome to me. The Republicans are banking on this kind of rhetoric as they are usually the one's who initiate it. There's something two faced about Obama as well but as a Democrat, I am keeping an open mind, –something the Obama supporteres are not doing, which lead to believe many are Republicans who are pretending to be Democrats so he can be raked over the coals by the McCain supporters this Fall.

Obama keeps claiming he is taking the "high road" while his campaign people are doing everything they can to smear the competition. I like him and his cronies less and less every week. If my state could do-over the primary my vote this time would be for Clinton.

CNN comeon! Attack means lies. Are any of those things lies? They are the truth, people do not like Clinton it is a fact.

CNN, why haven't you posted my comment?

Obama campaign is misleading the voters not Hillary

I, say if Hillary does not get the nomination that all the people who voted for Hillary vote for McCain or Nadar.I,am

This attack on Hillary is the last straw for me, I will under no circumstance vote for Obama.
The only place you will find any politician and that includes your Barack Obama that does not lie, or shade the truth is with all the other now honest people and that is in the cemetary six feet under.

The Republicans want HRC for a reason, so much dirt they wouldnt even have to try. GWB could probably beat her.

Still STICKING with Obama!!!! Houston, Texas

It's unfortunate the Obama campaign has to go on the attack and call Clinton a "deeply flawed" candidate.
Obviously, the Obama campaign has had a few issues these past few weeks and is trying to shift the spotlight to Clinton as her results in polls continue to climb.

P.S. If Clinton's minister had made such scornful statements as Senator Obama's did, Clinton would have been crucified by the media and hung out to dry.

That's a nice way to put it.

SNAFU would be more appropriate.

Sad thing is, Obama would be worse.

It is truly about time that someone called on Sen. Clinton to account for many discrepancies in her "politics" that are glaringly evident to any American who wants to objectively review them and divorce their minds from race and gender issues. I am a middle-aged, white, female who initially supported her but after careful study with every attempt to remain objective am completely turned off by the frequent contradictions she has made and continues to make. Yes she voted for the war, be honest and just say it- there is more veracity in a politician who admits their mistake but vows to the people to work ardently at doing what she can to make things better now, bring our troops home as soon as possible and take care of our veterans. Stop trying to misle us on Nafta, if you supported it just say it. Politics like life is always in flux- conditions are going to change and people have to adjust their thought processes and policies to best address the issue at hand. I am now convinced that mentally she is much like George Bush- bull headed and deceitful. She will lie to the American people to save face versus just saying we have made a mistake based on false information but will rectify it now. Such an attempt by GWB 4 years ago might have saved us from having to commemorate our 5th anniversary in Iraq this past week.

Gosh, let's talk about dishonesty, shall we? Let's not even go too far back to the NAFTA controversy or the plagiarism charge.

Obama lied about how much money Rezko raised for him. Now that Rezko is being tried, he's trying to cover his behind by changing the figure and releasing lists of who gave him what.

Obama lied about not ever hearing about Wright's inflammatory and toxic idealogy. And then in his red herring speech, he admitted that he had heard it before. Who's fooling who?

The New Black Panther party has endorsed Obama. Of course, now that our ears are open, he says he rejects that endorsement. He did the same with with Farrakhan – trying to downplay the Farrakhan connection but thanks to Hannity on Foxnews, the story is out. Who knows what we'll hear about the Black Panther connection tomorrow.

So long as one thread has come undone, that's it. There will be more news. I am sure of that. Obama is dishonest. He's fooling this country. People have taken the bait. He's been indoctrinated for 20+ years and he's on a mission to carry out the mission of the radical African American leaders (no wonder he calls this a movement)! He's been projecting the anger of the radicals and guilt of White America on us very successfully. Wake up, America!

"The only do-over election we might want to consider is in Ohio, since Sen. Clinton misled the voters in Ohio about her support of NAFTA." – Obama campaign manager David Plouffe.

This is the best line of response to Hillary's challenge, "Are you afraid of a re-vote, Obama?"

Barack, just another politician.... negatively attacking another candidate.... it just showed us something: He's simply in the scene too short of a time to commit the errors that past politicians commit... I'll enjoy another politician in the white house, if Obama is elected.... he's just like any other politicians... I'd rather go for one who have the track records so that I know that person better, how they change their minds etc.

Obama, you still have a long way to go...

That's what Obama calls a "clean" campaign? He keeps saying we should be lifting up the country instead of pushing everyone down. He looks more and more fraud everyday. I am changing my vote.

We are Obama supporters- but, disappointed in some words used by
the Obama camp.
Dishonest Politician.... is too strong to describe Clinton's actions- prefer mislead on some issues- not such a blank statement. Now, the Obama camp is being unfair. Please tone down the rhetoric! If Obama is not the nominee- we will
choose to not vote in the upcoming election.

Her trustworthiness is not even a question–it's a fact that she cannot be trusted. Going way back to her earlier years with Whitewater and covering up for her husband's escapades, and most recently with lying about her support of NAFTA and how much experience she had in the White House shows that she continues to lie if it makes her or her husband look better.

My question is, how long has she been like this? Did she just become corrupt under the influence of her husband, or are there things prior to her being a Clinton that should be examined. Her manipulation and deviciveness stand in the way of our country making any progress.
In addition to her lack of integrity and character, I am also concerned about her ability to work with others. Check out her flexibility on "her" health plan...is there even room for anyone else to change a thing? NO–and you know that no one gets EXACTLY what they want or plan.
Lastly, we need to look at her mental stability. Up/down, yell and scream/cry, glare and complain/smile and joke. She has done a real dis-service to women by showing off her many sides.
On the other hand, look at Barack Obama–Mr. Flexibility, opening up to others and their opinions, a model of integrity, and stable...always so stable. He's the man we need to get behind!

David Plouffe says that it would be "nearly impossible" for Hillary to win a general election. It seems to me that statement would be better applied to Barak Obama as both the latest Fox and Gallop polls show Clinton ahead of McCain (46% to 43% and 46% to 44%, respectively) while Obama either trails or is tied with the Republican (43% to 44% and 45% to 45%, respectively).

I am an Obama supported, but this kind of attack on a fellow democrat saddens me.

We are on the same side, lets remember that

jack

I guess Obama isn't wanting to run a clean campaign after all, not using negative attacks is off the table. what happened to the rhetoric about your "new politics"?

After what happend this last week with Obama , I will never vote for him insted I will vote for Hillary Clinton...and if this guy that new his Uncle was saying God Dam America wins the Nomination I will be glad for the 1st tiem to vote McCain...

Hers is indeed a flawed candidacy, not only because of obvious character issues, but because the two largest enterprises she has ever run have demonstrated her inability to be an effective leader. Her health reform effort collapsed because of her secretive, my-way-or-the-highway approach. And her campaign continues to careen from from financial problem to another - hardly the leadership we need for the U. S. economy. As for "foreign policy experience," flying around the world on your husband's coattails to have tea and cookies with other first ladies hardly qualifies you to be commander and chief.

Is Obama supposed to be a "new" politician, who would distance himself from the "old" Washington political dirty tricks?

Well said Plouffe. Ohio voters must be feeling pretty stupid now. Wake up PA or you will feel the same too.

Whatever! I guess Obama is no different than any other politicians cause he's relying on sneaky attacks and tactics just like all other politicians. At least Hillary does not pretend to be someone she's not. HILLARY 08

OMG – Look who is talking!

Wow! It's funny how every time the Obama campaign questions Hillary's actions they are accused of attacking her. What does Obama being in "political hot water" have to do with her lying and trying to deceive voters? He wasn't in political hot water before Ohio, but she was on the verge of losing another state and she did whatever was necessary to ensure she won. Hillary is pathetic as well as everyone on her campaign.

By the way, I'm still waiting on the 30+ years of experience to be proven. I have reviewed her schedule for the time she was in the White House and I am not impressed. I have also traveled to numerous countries as a military soldier, hmmm.... maybe I should run for president... I would have more experience than Hillary

Of course it goes without saying that in the political dog fight there is an ever constant need to skew the topics and shine the spot light towards the negatives of the other candidate. I do not see Obama as being in such hot water, he's ahead of Clinton and if anyone is in hot water it's Clinton. She will more than likely win PA but really she's a long way from knocking Obama out of her way. The Clinton campaign has pulled back on their attacks considerably but they can hardly pretend innocence. I also believe that what the Obama camp is saying is correct, Clinton is a master at shape shifting and smoke screens. She's aware that Michigan does not count, then she's all over everyone to change the rules and make it count. In this attempt, she puts herself out there as one who is "fighting for justice," when in fact she's just fighting as usual. This is a very typical pattern of behavior for the Clinton's and many will fall for it as we see from the polls, there are also many many who will not.

Finally, we get down to the nitty gritty. I'm so glad the Obama campaign is spelling this out for those who fail to do their own research and only rely on soundbites and the talking heads in the mainstream media. Bravo!

Obama '08

Imagine that, someone from the Obama camp saying something bad about Hillary. And of course, CNN is on the job reporting it. What is Obama afraid of as far as a re-vote in Florida? The people of Florida are not the ones that broke the rules, but you are taking away their constitutional right to vote. What Obama is saying is that the people of Florida should not have a say in who their president should be. That is because if they re-voted in Michigan and Florida he would not win and he knows it.

What do you expect the opposition camp to say about who they are running up against???? That they would be GREAT if they were president?

OF COURSE NOT... not a news story worth printing

Both sides are right.
Good post!
DrFill

Deeply flawed is putting it lightly! It is about time Obama tells this truth about Hillary. People may see it as going negative but sometimes the truth just hurts. The truth will be exemely painful for the Clintons because they have a consistantly displayed a general lack of respect for it! Timberlake to Hillary– It's too late to apologize. It's too late. Please save the tears!

Geez, that picture is reason enough not to vote for her...

They are all flawed but Obama is the worst!

Look whose calling the kettle black. Obama is flawed as well. I'd rather have Clinton's flaws rather than having a racist, like Obama as the Democratic Presidential nominee.

Hillary deeply flawed!?!? Take a good look in the mirror Barack – you're a liar and a hypocrite and yet you claimed to be bringing a new style of politics to Washington! give me a break

HILLARY 08

Obama go get a life! Stop attacking just because you want to win.

You have got to be kidding me!

What is flawed is Obama insinuating that this country has made NO strides in our racial divide. We have made HUGE strides.
I am a white woman, and have many African American friends, and we talk about race all the time. This country is NOT what it used to be in regards to race. Do we still have work to do – yes. But, I worry that his tone and the tone of his church will erase what has been done.

But, it offends me to suggest that we haven't made any progress.
Look around you.
I think maybe if Obama got away from his church, he would see more objectively what racial progress is in this country.

Hillary is flawed???? And you're not?

Like Obama is any more trustworthy... I would rather have Clinton as President, than somebody who sat for 20 years listening to how bad the white man is!!

Obama is as vague as ever, and the only change he has is mystery!

Sounds like the obama camp is very negative no change here the same old thing gee I want a president that sat under a pastor that hated America. The republican machine is gering up to crush Obama on that I know as a democrat I will not vote for him. Hillary 08 or mccain

This is just all to self- righteous for me...

Who isn't flawed?

Be aware of those slinging the righteous banner... it promotes egotism and narrow mindedness....

This recent attack from the Obama campaign is very disheartening. The effort to oversimplify the challenges of real world politics that face all public officials runs counter to the spirit and sensibility of Obama's wonderful speech highlighting the complexity of race relations. Isn't it possible, indeed likely, that Hillary, in her capacity as First Lady, often felt compelled to take public positions that contradicted her personal preferences? Obama himself has had to face the same contradiction on numerous occasions.

Unfortunately, the timing of these comments do make the Obama campaign look desperate. In the very least, these remarks remind us that no politician is completely above "politics as usual."

Is anyone surprised? This is just the tip of the iceberg. She is a flip flopper and will say anything to be elected. America needs a president with character and morals. A president that is HONEST.

I have been a life long democrat and if somehow Hillary cheats, lies, or uses superdelegates to win the nomination I will NOT vote!

If Obama does not win the nomination I hope he forms his own party or runs next election as an independant. We all know he doesn't need the DNC money, and he has the support of the popular vote to do so.

OBAMA '08

Obama is a once is a life time deal. This is our first chance to put the country back on track since 1988. Cant aford the same rut for another 4 years.

iT'S amazeing Obama has another advisor say all this.I guess if it backfire's he will fire this one too. He can't speak for himslf .

Another anti-Clinton article on CNN! What a shock! This is another rehash of whats getting to be a very repetitive slant on jounarlism

If the Obama camps has this informantion. Then produce the facts of her role. Some type of document explaining her role at these meetings. Sen Obama preaches accountability. His camp should back up what they by releasing the information to the public. By reading the article, all I get from it is a personal opinion on what they think her role was at these meetings.

This is an appropriate response to all of Clinton's public efforts to brag about electability.

"Flawed" is much too nice a word.

we know that !

Karl Rove attacked Hillary Clinton using this flawed phrase in August 2007. It is critical for all the democrats to think clearly for themselves, for the party, and for the country.

Oh, Please you are grabbing at staws! Since when is it a crime to "SIT" in a meeting to get all the facts! Just because you were at a meeting does not mean You supported any issues! If that is the case, then What about "Obama" speech backing President Bush when we went to War 2002. Play that tape on CNN!!

If that ain't the pot calling the kettle black! Trustworthy? Calculating? What about top level officials in the Obama camp giving the "wink wink" to Canadian Officials over NAFTA? What about " I did not attend any inflammatory sermons with that man, Rev. Wright" only to be told later when it might come out that he did attend the sermons did he come clean? What about claims to being a different kind of candidate who will keep this campaign positive? Why the muddslinging? By the way, who makes up the Obama camp? These comments are comming from Mr. Showbiz himself, the cameleon, the slick one, the opportunist, the entitled one himself, Barak Obama. Will the real Barak Obama please stand up.

What happened to the new kind of politics without the mud-slinging?

I am simply amazed that the Obama campaign has reduced itself to the "Politics as Normal" with such rediculas, and slanderous accusations by simply looking at HRC's W.H. schedule. If anyone is dishonest here, it is the Obama camp for ridiculing other nominees as running a "Politics as normal" negative campaign, when they are doing the very same thing.

I am sorry Senator Obama, you had me going there for a while about real change, but you are no different from the rest, just a bigger hypocrit

Obama you are the flawed one. Flawed in judgment, Wright and Rezko for example. Proven liar, i.e. Rezko and Nafta. You can't even transcend the racial issues in your own church.

Hillary is "deeply flawed"...did we all suddenly get amnesia and forget about Wright?

For me, Obama is now trying hard to do anything to save his campaign.

He has gone from talking about "I have a dream..." to "I have an excuse". Unfortunately, no one should be able to excuse hatred in any form against any human being.

What is more disconcerting is that Senator Obama has essentally refused to distance himself from Rev. Wright.

So the question for anyone contemplating an Obama vote should be, are we prepared to have Rev. Wright be the pastor to the White House?

Hillary has just not duped Ohio, but the rest of the country. Fortunately here in Iowa we saw her for what she is, a very dirty Washington Politician. Save the Democratic party now, DROP OUT, you are not smarter than a fifth grader.

I noticed the Clinton Camp didnt deny they mislead voters in Ohio.How anyone can vote for Hillary is beyond all comprehension.

And Obama is non-divisive candidate?

Come on!
The Obama Camp is pathetic.
Instead of arguing about the issue, now they are attacking personality.
How pathetic that is!

I am confused is but being a "liar" and having bad "Judgement" is ok???

How could anyone vote for such a negative and racially devisive candidate as Barack Obama, he is so negative.

Memo from McCain to Obama: Hey, Barack, let's you and her fight!

Keep it up Dems because it's more important to bash each other than to focus on what the real objective is: winning the White House back. No wonder the Republicans keep winning.

Nice to hear somebody say the truth about Clinton. She and Willy are deeply flawed morally.

SHE'S not trustworthy? Are you kidding me? Obama must really be desperate to come out with this statement right now after lying just less than a week ago about his pastor. And Rezko contributions.

And is this the kind of "new politics" he based his campaign around, a campaign of "hope" and "unity" and "no negative campaigning?"

Come on, Obama. Don't be so childish.

I think everyone BUT Hillary knows she is unelectable.

The fake 'controversy' of the past few days doesn't compare AT ALL to Whitewater, Lewinsky, pardons-for-sale, campaign finance scandals, etc .

It's about time the Obama campaign talks about Hillary's fatal flaw. No one who doesn't have an interest in her becoming president believes a word she says.

The Obama campaign is talking about honesty? NOT

Will she cry again ? Or will she come with her many faces and tell America how it her right to be President??

I think Obama is liar,fraud and a hypocrite.

Barack knows it's over so they're throwing out everything they've got, the fat lady has been notified. bye bye Obama!!

Obama your true colors are coming out!!!

Sad that its come to this, but its all true. She could never win a general election, and she is dishonest.

Well, Obama has lost any right to claim his campaign is about hope and change. That is by far the most personal and NEGATIVE attack by any candidate in either party for years. As soon as it gets tough, he becomes all those things he claimed he wasn't. Well, the only thing he still lacks to be a true example of politics as usual is experience. I thought I might vote for him if he got the nomination...but not now.

But I thought the ever-so-wonderful Obama Camp didnt lower itself to personal attacks and didn't follow the "typical playbook". Oh wait, but now they're desperate...

SPIN, SPIN..... more Obama spin! We're all getting dizzy from the ridiculous behavior of his campaign. We thought Obama was a "different" type of politician but we've found out differently! It's downhill from here on out.

Or even a full year. So much for the positive change candidate. I wonder if they truly think voters are stupid?

I thought Barack was above this kind of attack? Yeah, right, just showing his true colors now, same old politician as everybody else. And that would be more acceptable if he wasn't pretending to be morally superior to other politicians. Fact is Hillary offers the same things as Barack (same policies) but she knows the Whitehouse and how to get things done. Barack peaked to soon and is on the downturn now. The naieve college students that make up his base will lose interest pretty soon.

she will do anything to win.

Oh please.......now it appears as though the Obama camp will do or say anything to get the spotlight off of him.

This doesn't change the fact the Obama refuses to distance himself from Rev. Wright and his hate-filled speeches.

Obama threw his grandmother under the bus the other day stating that she made racial comments like his pastor and then he states that his grandmother is a "typical white person". Now that is a flawed candidate.

Are you kidding me? Obama IS a flawed nominee. He has become unelectable and he will not win the general election. Only Clinton can beat McCain.

Obama, do you really think that you are going to carry Clinton supporters if you get the nomination? NO WAY! There is no way in hell I would support you after you claim to be a new type of politician and yet you continue to use negative and misleading information at every chance you get. You will lose the general election against McCain if you get the nomination. People are beginning to see through your empty rhetoric, and the affects from your poor judgment by having long-term relationships with Wright and Rezko will surely make the republicans case that much easier in the fall.

WELCOME PRESIDENT JOHN McCAIN!!!!

Please!

I told you so.

I support that 100%. I have never seen a woman who is a the most secretive, on trustworthy person I have ever heard of or seen.

Well, what the Obama camp says is true. If Hillary and Bill have any ethics at all, they're not apparent. They'll do anything to win...ANYTHING...not the least of which is to try to change the rules and the goalpost in midstream. How about all the Clinton scandals while they were in the White House? Do we want to even think of more years of that? I think not.

OBAMA '08

I'm glad someone has finally brought this issue out in the open

Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.

Look in the mirror, Sen. Obama. You sure can't stand the heat, can you, whiner?

Right... And Obama is above reproach? Not only does Obama have flaws, he has gaping holes when it comes to experience. Clinton certainly has weak areas but that is what VP's and cabinets are for. Seriously, Barack is the last person who should be pointing out inadequecies when he hasn't even shown us areas where he, himelf is adequate.

yes, she is obviously flawed. so are the rest of the candidates. they're all bought and paid for and will continue business as usual.

WOW! Now we are clear who is runing the negative campaign here!

If Obama gets the nomination, Democrats' chance is zero in GE.

Throughout this long campaign Clinton has been constant in one area ... she has "consistently changed" positions, tack, tone and campaign themes ... and she has demonstrating a vile willingness to do anything to win. Ultimately, she would make for a horrible and very vulnerable presidential candidate when it comes to straight-talk and the perception of honesty!

For a campaign that keeps saying they are different and want to take the "high road" Obama's campaign has repeatedly attacked Sen. Clinton's character while playing innocent. That doesn't seem much like the "high road" to me. Also, I don't see why Obama is claiming to be such a perfect candidate; from what I can tell he is equally "flawed", just look at his record or "bone-headed" mistakes. First Rezko, now Wright. Who's next?

There are some people you can just look at and know you can't trust them. They say don't judge a book by its cover. But in this case that cover is full of moth holes. I hope people wake up and see that this is just about power for the clintons.

Why does she cherry pick states, why does she flip-flop????

Just a thought. Wouldn't Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice make a great VP choice for McCain?

So much for a different kind of politics from Obama. Shame on him.

I find this laughable when Senator Obama just recently and blatantly lied to all of us about his knowledge concerning Reverend Wright's comments. I don't think you should be pointing the finger at another candidate when it's clear that your own house is not in order. Senator Obama's candidacy is about as flawed as it gets! But that's okay - because CNN will keep helping him with their biased pro-Obama stories. If you don't believe me just click on Obama's name and look at the long laundry list of adoring articles written about him. Click on Clinton's name and you won't find any such list. Nice to have fair, unbiased reporting - NOT!

Hey Barack what happened to your promise of no negative champaigning? Just another lie.
Politics as usual. I was undecided, after this and all the other lies that are cropping, I am voting for Hillary.

Clinton cannot mathemetically catch up.

It's over, the DNC needs to step in and stop Clinton's kitchen sinking before she kitchen sinks the Democratic party. Lying, selfish woman.

Amazing at the depths to which the Obama campaign will sink.

Charachter issues??? Flawed nominee?? Is this guy for real?? What planet is he from?

In fact, the people are seeing the truth Mr. Plouffe, and they are deeply disturbed by the character flaws of Mr. Obama.

I suspect everyone except the Obama followers will be unimpressed by these lame attacks on Senator Clinton. It is obvious that the Obama campaign is putting forth as many manipulative lies as they can conjur – much in the vein of those put forth by George Bush and his croonies.

Furthering the notion of Obama as nothing but a liar and a fraud – thanks Mr. Plouffe – you have proved the point.

VOTE HILLARY!

AGREED

Desperate to change the subject indeed. OBAMA please answer the questions straight about your Pastor.

Hillary 2008!

This is running a positive campaign?

I'm sorry, but there are too many questions about Obama for me to have any confidence in him as a nominee, let alone as president. The Wright business, and Obama's varying explanations of it didn't help. Now this flip flop on campaign tactics tells me this isn't a person I want in charge.

We'll know what we're getting with Hillary.

Obama compaigning trying desperately to throw mud at Clinton's compaiging, so old politics & negative compaiging. This is same old washing politics, this is what people tired of, Obama compaign is trying to frighten the voter just like they do all the time. Obama is playing old washington politics, talk about change haha!!!

Is this the kind of campaign that the Obama is endorsing? Is this what they called "CHANGE" in their campaign? Are they afraid of the new Gallup poll that Hillary is leading nationwide now?
Well, I firmly believe that the Obama candidacy is in deep trouble. Just remember, the Republican has not started digging his dirt or did they? I'm wondering what else is in his closet.
Now, let's talk about flawed!!!

attacks, attacks, attacks are part of the political process

If their is one thing worse than a dishonest politician, it is a dishonest politician who wears a halo on their head while they sling mud at someone else. I was impartial, i used to like them both. But I though Obama was about the politics of hope. He is now poll-pushing, mud-slinging, and attacking her for her character rather than on the issues or for her resume. Hillary has earned my vote for her professionalism, keeping her head high in the mids of this onslaught.

Now the truth be told!

NAFTA will be your waterfall hope you can swim

Sore losers...the Obama camp is shifting into negativity to 'wag the dog' of their own issues with inflaming the race issue. They're stooping to name-calling and all other tactics appropriate for grammar school playground politics. I though St. Barack was above all this fray??

GO HILLARY 2008!

All I've gotta say is OUCH! Everything he said is true though. I've kinda been waiting for them to say this. To the Clinton camaign. SHUTUP!

The Obama campaign is clearly desperate – anything to get ahead. Sorry Obama – you are on a sinking ship, with your Rev Wright as a captain.

The polls tell a different story of electablility. One that isn't good for Obama.

Clinton and Obama both appear to be deeply flawed.

The Clinton's nonstop attacks on Sen. Obama is making him look more and more presidential by the minute! If she wants to put distance between a negative then she needs to cuts ties with her husband, whom she has been keeping in the background. We will NOT have two VPs! Your White House papers just surfaced and it clearly shows your exaggeration of your work and experience!

Sen. Clinton you can't keep treating the public like imbeciles!

For Hillary it's about winning at almost...............any cost! Her campaign's continual misleading attempts to demean and put down Obama is her sign of complete and utter desparation. Prior to all this, I held a certain amount of respect for Hillary but her "Kitchen Sink" tactics against Obama have really turned me off!

Coming from the camp of a Chicago Democrate, really.

Thank you for finally telling the American people the Truth about the shady Clinton's. They will stop at nothing to destroy to win and are setting out to destroy the party if they don't.

Obama is not a trusted person to fight against terrorism, even he could be friend of them.

Who's using a kitchen sink strategy? Obama sickens me.

The Clintons are very dishonest.

Whether you back clinton or obama. I think we should really research each candidate because these issues are important and we have the right to investigate. Let's stop trusting these news sources and take our time and really READ for ourselves. I am finding out that some of the candidates DO NOT WANT YOU TO READ! Exercise your right to ???? everything. Instead of judging what HILLary says or what Obama says find out for yourself..... Wouldn't it be a shame if McCain wins because you the American did not educate yourself......

Democrat for President 08'!!!!

Let's go DEMOs, Let's go!!!!!!!!!

I can't believe the Obama campaign is going desperate. This is totally unnecessary. Launching personal attacks is not the way to win the election. Words like these disgrace yourself.

It is obvious that we have every right to question Mrs. Clintons ability to tell us the truth, because she lied to us before. She lied in Ohio, stating that she was always against NAFTA, now we find out that she attended at least 11 meetings where she met with groups and she promoted NAFTA. I don't believe she is capable of being truthful!

Talk about political expediency! Wow; the Obama camp really stops at nothing. What happened to all of the hope, change, raising one another up and not knocking each other down? What happened to ensuring that nothing is said about the other candidate that could hurt him or her in a General Election? Guess that only goes when Obama is up in the polls, huh? As soon as that changes, so does his rhetoric.

I was on the fence between Clinton and Obama, but will definitely support Clinton now. And if Obama is the nominee, I will be voting for McCain - first time ever in 35 years I'll vote Republican, but all faith in Obama's credibility and judgment at this point is completely gone.

I guess "Not this time" was just an excuse Obama was using

Way to go Plouffe! I've been waiting for the Barack Obama campaign to come out fighting. It's time for you guys to start exposing the truths about Hillary. I'm tired of her and her supporters acting like she is a saint, when we all know that is far from true. I must say that I'm happy to see Barack on the attack side. Lay the clean politics to the side for a moment, and tear into Hillary with ALL of your might!

This is not about changing the subject-this has always been about the Clintons will stop at nothing to win the nomination. Americans are fully aware that she cannot be trusted. Hillary, please concede so we can begin to unite the Democratic Party

Obama is deeply flaw and he plays a race card. A self claimed uniter is actually a divider.

Tell us something we don't already know! Come on people wake-up Hillary Clinton needs to go, get out of the race and stop wasting America's time!

Wow...these Democrats are tearing each other apart day after day. How is this party ever going to unite by November???

Clinton is a deeply flawed nominee.
Obama for 2008!

Things must be desperate in Obamaland. His campaign is in a nosedive so he steps up the negative attacks. Doesn't sound like an agent of change to me. Sounds like just another politician – only without a resume. Superdelagates take note – vote for the candidate who actually has a chance in November. Vote for Hillary.

I guess Obama has given up on his message of "change". The longer this goes on the clearer we are able to see Obama is no different than any other politician.

I voted for him in the Primary but would not vote for him again today.

I mistyped my last statement. It should read that it is NOT working.

This isn't news. We already knew she was flawed..Let us count the ways....

..No matter what you say, Hillary misled voters over her stance towards NAFTA and her win in Ohio is ONLY because of that..

..shes flip-flopped over the Iraq issue and now this.. voters without blinkers should take due note

Obama what a hypocrit. You even threw your 86 yr old grandmother under the bus. You will stop at nothing to get this nomination but in the end you will be defeated in November.

not as flawed as your oponent to say the least, for someone who made an entire speech on getting beyond racial barriers in this country, he sure has stirred up a mess

The idea that Hiliary Clinton has more experience .... the vaunted 35 years of experience is laughable ... taking credit for ceremonial meetings and accompanying the president on overseas travel is not relevant ...

If it were, Millie would have succeed George ....(Bush)

It is a mystery to me how any rational person could not come to the conclusion that Hillary will say or do just about anything to get elected. I mean shouldn't we hold people accountable for saying false things?

I'm ashamed for Bill Richardson given all that the Clinton's have done for him. This would be the same for all other Super Delegates that have changed sides.

It amazes me how some will turn on you. And, you want me to have trust in my Government...

I can't help but wonder at how desperate Senator Clinton is to get to be the nominee.

Her motivation seems to me to be a desire to be the first female nominee than a desire to beat McCain in the general election.

She misled us about NAFTA and other very sensitive issues. This character flaw will sure come back to hurt her candidacy.

So much for hope and change! Now it's time for some mudslinging!

Nice... Hillary can't win...

you are so stupid, get a grip, Clinton would be a better president than Obama in a day of the future.............GROW UP.............

Same old Obama camp tactics. Whatever the rhetoric, Obama's campaign has always been "business as usual", Washington-style. He's been saying that Hillary is for-sale to lobbyists for months. I'm not aware of one instance where she changed her vote because of a contribution. Perhaps if he finished one term in the Senate, Obama could end up being the best President in our history, but right now he's an under-experienced intellectual using the same old hackneyed outsider claims.

"flawed" is actually a nice way to put it

Obama camp is desperate now – they can see that they no longer can secure the nomination and will likely lose it. It's time for Obama to drop out!

Go Hillary !!!

BOTH candidates are deeply flawed, each in their own way.

Where is Edwards when we need him most?

This is starting to get a little old.

Here we go again. Now that Senator Clinton is ahead. The other camp has to tear her down. Seems too practicable. As long as she was even or a little behind in numbers, the Obama people only talked about their candidate. Tacky.

We are now knowing why Mrs. Clinton did not want those records out. I now wonder too if she doesn't want her tax records released for the same reasons......

All I see when I look at her is a lying, manipulative person that will do anything for power. I wonder if there is a help group she can join to help her out?

I thought Obama said he was above personal attacks.

Looks like Obama is coming apart at the seams...

It's over... the photo of Clinton with Wright, the typical white people comment... not this... their losing it and know it.

Put a fork in him... He's done!

Reprehensible.....simply reprehensible. To speak about the Hillary Clinton being "flawed and having character issues", I strongly believe both Obama and his camp need to look in the mirror. Obama has yet to really address the underlying reasonings of how a U.S. senator and aspiring Presidential candidate could be "so unaware" of the racially biased and anti-american preachings of his mentor to the tune of 20 whole years.

Further, Obama categorizing All White americans as "Typical" shows serious flaws in his character and really needs to be investigated and tested by the media. Are you up for the virtuous task CNN?

Let's face it folks, Hillary is a seriously flawed person. One moment she's saying that the Michigan and Florida votes should not count, and the next when she's down in delegates they suddenly should count. The fact of the matter is that a Hillary Clinton administration would be full of scandals and investigations by The Republicans because they hate her and Bill Clinton sooooooooo very much. They are just dishonest people who have consistently lied and bent truths when it's politically advantageous.

NEWS FLASH OBAMA....WE DONT TRUST YOU NOW!!!

More flawed than Rev Wright?

Time for me to consider voting for John McCain. I do not approve at all with what Clinton and Obama are doing to each other.

So much for the audacity of hope and new politics. Barack is a typical politician although he convinced several million morons otherwise.

To the OBAMA campaign your time has come where the good people of America finally realized what you stand for. I hope its not to late.
Hillary/Edwards 08

My issue is with Obama now that he is blocking the votes of the people of MI and FL. I have now seen a completely different side of him then he portrays on the campaign trail. He is only concerned that his results will be threatened if he allows those votes to be counted. Who is he to determine that we should only consider 48 states to elect a nominee or distort by giving him more delagates then is represented by the peoples votes. He is a politician with not real concern for the people of this country just whether he wins this nomination.

She is too flawed now for democrates to stomach. For her to say the legitimacy for the nominee will be in question without FL and MI, after she had agreed with the dem party that they will not count and publicly said that, is flawed judgement. I think she completely lost the superdelegates with that statement.

I am an Obama supporter and I believe that what they are saying is true, but I wish they wouldn't get so negative and almost personal. That's Clinton's job and they should let her do that dance alone.

It's disappointing to see Senator Obama going so negative, especially in light of other recent contradictions. Seems an awful like politics as usual.

WOW, there's a surprise...A Clinton considered untrustworthy...what really amazes me is that ONLY 53 percent of Americans think she's untrustworthy...I guess the other 47 percent are either undecided or simply clueless....

It's about time that Obama took the gloves off. Hillary has been getting away with murder.

The Obama people are only voiving what the majority of Americans already recognized. The Clintons, both of them, lie when it suits them. Politics are their way of life and they know how to play the game with the best of them. This is what we have had in this country for the last 20 years. To elect Hillary would be saying it's o.k and your happy with the state of the United States. Hillary's trained chickens can say whatever they want...you will notice they did not address the real issue that dealt with NAFTA...they threw more dirt that had no basis in fact.

Mrs Clinton is a politician through and through. Her stance on the issues changes with each primary. Her people tell her what the voters are concerned about and she gives the answer they want to hear.
She is not a good choice for President, very flawed character and always wanting to rewrite history. Mrs Clinton, you need to make a decision and stay with it. We can't change things in life after we have new information.

HUH? Some nerve OBAMA. To claim Hillary is not trustworthy after what you have shown the voters. GET REAL. If she not electible then why is she leading you in popular votes by 250,000 votes. You are a liar, a deciever (Rezko), and a do nothing person who claims to not have supported the Iraq war. We will never know about that one will we? Since you were not even in the position to know what the dickens was going on. Had no vote, saw no report and was only a State Senator at the time. (They don't have a say in national legislation). You keep bringing up the NAFTA thing. Most everyone in congress at the time, Repulicans and Democrats alike thought it was a pretty good plan. But, as foresight would have it, IT LIKE REGANOMICS failed). Now you want to use it against her who had no vote on that matter either. GET REAL OBAMA. You are a dishonest person who can not tell the truth Besides what can you lay your name too that was so good for this country beside your wicked mouth? HILLARY 08

What is going on? Obama is becoming desperate and the kind of politics he was speaking about deteriorated in a span of one week. I voted for him and donated but I see him now as very conniving and destructung politician. Obama has no experience, but i voted for him based on character and now that has gone! he has no experience, no judgment, and no character, ane very devisive for this country now. I hope it is not too late

This is why I could NEVER vote for Obama. McCain is going to win Florida by large margins come November. Politics of the future? Yeah right! I think McCain will be a stronger leader then Obama. He is the reason that millions of people in florida voices will be unheard.

Anna
Florida Democrats for McCain!!!

well, isn't this the pot calling the kettle black? Either one of them are honest, Obama shows behind in the polls against McCain. Congrats to the dems! The one year there is no excuses for them to lose the white house they have screwed it up only like the dems can do.

It's so cute that American's think they can trust politicians. I could just pinch you all!

Hillary, you have the blood of 4,000 dead soldiers and tens of thousands of crippled, burned, disfigured, and mentally fatigued veterans on your hands.
Have you no conscience?
What have you done for the men and women you sent to war?
Nothing....that is why the vast majority of Veterans support Obama over Hillary. He is the only candidate that has tackled the issues facing returning war vets.

Obama is a Godsend.

I would never vote for you Clinton.………..You allowed Bill to have affairs in your own backyard, not once but 10 times. If you cant take care of your own house, how can you take care of America.

Untrustworthy Lady of the Year
Divorce Bill and go home

Obama camp are you kidding me? Just because you say it's "deeply flawed" it's deeply flawed?

I have a concern for Obama's IQ now, and I have for George Bush. That picture of Bill with Wright?

Give me a break!!!

. . . Clinton, Bush, Clinton, Bush . . . Bad American morale. . . . .change . . . . . .refreshing. . . . change.

Obama 08.

once a liar always a liar. The truth is known now about NAFTA I believe voteres in Ohio are fuming now about . No one wants to be lied to.

Senator Clinton cares about nothing but getting into the White House. She has shown herself to be dishonest and mean spirited and makes Karl Rove look like Santa Claus. Bill Clinton is just as bad. He wants a third term and a chance to redeem himself for his own blemished White House years.

It is funny how this sharp attack comes right after Obama gets attack by the media and the american people on how his childhood priest is a racist. I guess he couldnt shake it off with his speech so now he has to go after hilary. Isn' this the type of campaign he said he wouldnt be runnig. So who is the liar and untrustworthy one now?

This is true...she has also talked about getting our troops out right away and ending the war. She also talked about how we need to stay in it to win it on an MTV special. Watch out she is slick.

What I've been saying all along.

Hillary has the know how to get the world friendly with America again. She will fight for the american people black, white and every other color in this country. Let's keep america together.

Obama who is a follower of Rev. Wright ........... need I say any more. Scary....

WOW!! What a statement from an Obama camp that has him traveling about South Carolina with a gay hating Rev and then a relationship with his spiritual advisor Rev Wright that makes anti-American statements. Who is this guy??? At least we know all of Hillary's dirty laundry but everytime someone brings an Obama flaw to the surface the Democratic Party SWOONS and points their fingure elsewhere. I think it takes a lot of nerve to call someone dishonest when your own candidate is questionable.

Given all the circumstances, from experience to a poised personality, Obama will be more of a 'deeply flawed' nominee than Hillary. Obama needs to wait a few more years, perhaps the next elections... he may be better prepared to deal with the challenges that this job brings.

Hillary is not perfect, no one is. But she is lesser of the evils when between the two.

It just shows you that Hillary will do and say anything to get elected, and she and her husband will take the whole Democratic Party down if she isn't.

Hillary needs to address this straight on and not just try to turn it back on Obama. Obama had to address race straight on which is a much more difficult to address than a trade deal. I remember her saying in the debate that she privately had reservations about NAFTA. So why did she sit in meetings to help support it?

I don't know about flawed, but she gives the impression of secrecy, which in itself is not wrong, but after Bush and Cheney for the past few years it just looks more terrible that it might actually be.

Obama campaign is flawed, they havent even answered a question directly. Wow Cnn can you not be more biased honestly, these reports are ridiculous.

Is Obama a complete idiot? Doesn't he have a court case that is in progress to be concerned with? And, what about Rev. Wright.

Obama just does not get it and is reaching...

Well, I guess the gloves are off. Let's see if Senator Clinton can do more than give punches....

Sounds like mere desperation from the Obama camp once again. Give them a little pressure and they crack. At least, Hillary can hold her own when attacked or the tables turn.

What happened to the story from Chrystia Freeland that it was Clinton's camp that contacted the Canadian government about NAFTA ,not Obama's?

Senator Clinton is untrustworthy?

This is where we say "Duh!"

Let me quickly point out, before this blog gets nuked to hell by Clinton supporters, that this attack is based on factual evidence and is by no means considered to be "dirty".

Now that that's cleared up....

Whoow!!!! Talk about campaing of hope and Future. Sen. Obama, you have lost little respect that I have with this.

I think it is great idea to do-over in ohio!

of course it doesn't count, but it will show the opinion of people that who is evil.

clearly obama is dangerous evil, supported by CNN and MSNBC,

Ofcourse... She is very messed up... I wonder why people are still voting for her? Its very sad. Wait till her tax return papers come out. America would be so disaapointed in her. And thats if she releases it before April 15 like she said which i beleive she wouldn't.

True...You can't be proud of how she has run this campaign. Even McCain is showing great restraint and integrity. Hillary is desperate for power. Why do you think she did not leave Bill after his many indescretions. That is not a strong woman.

Obama is a Godsend! He alond with his millions of followers will change this country and put it on the right course.

We need a uniter not a divider!

If she did eight things rightly and two things wrongly in her whole life, her mistaken rate is 20%. If he did one thing rightly and one thing wronglyin his whole life, his mistaken rate is 50%. Who is more accountable.

That was a really good laugh!

Is this the new style of politics.. the change???

Sad..

Call me crazy (or a typical white person) but isn't worshiping at a church where the pastor spews venom a little flawed?

Oh, and CNN, will you please update your National Poll of Polls listing. Clinton is in the lead, not your boy Obama. Either play fair or don't play at all.

This is coming from the Obama camp who claims to run a positive campaign.

If anything goes wrong in the Obama camp, he and their supporters are always jumping all over Clinton to blame her.

This is politics and each person can judge for themselves.Remember, you're vote is private.

I don't see anything here that the Obama camp said about Hillary that isn't 100% true. In fact, I think there is a lot more they could have said but didn't. So, although it may be true that Obama has hit a serious bump in the road, bringing it up in response to this is just more desperate politicking. Clinton has been in hot water a lot longer than Obama has.

Obama,
the truth is on your side..... don't be afraid to use it!!!

America's closed-mindedness is about to cost it a chance to have a once-in-a-lifetime leader.
