obama people know this hillary supporters will not support him in the ge. /he has lose already

Poor kid. He should have known better than to expect honesty and openness from a Clinton.

Obama supporters. This means WAR.

The Media and all the other Party's is Laughing and Talking about US-

— FIGHTING AND DIVIDING over OBAMA and HILLARY—

NEITHER is PERFECT…

Yet WE are acting like WE don't have GOOD SENSE

—- —THINK—THINK— DO YOU HATE each OTHER that much that you will allow MCcain/the Republican to WIN—-

Do YOU hate the U.S. that much that You are willing to DESTROY the U.S.A. with 4 MORE YRS. with ANOTHER Bush

—- COME TOGETHER—and THINK—STOP letting the MEDIA PLAY US— IF we STOP POSTING COMMENTS about the OTHER–

They will STOP putting up Unnecessary TICKERS—

VOTE Democratic—NO MATTER WHAT—PROVE THEM WRONG

When you ask a dumb question……YOU GET BURNED!

If he was truly a Clinton Supporter he wouldn't of asked that question….good try Obama.

One thing is for sure….I bet he doesn't ask her that question again

Good for you, Chelsea….you did the right thing by not taking the bait!!

Hahahaha - just like a Clinton to turn on their OWN supporters. It looks SO good on them right now - the Clintons are imploding right before our eyes, and if from what I've heard…I do hope that the Superdelegates are preparing to step in and end this nightmare of a campaign that Hillary Clinton is running. After she wins Penn and Barack cleans up the next 4 primaries after that, shut 'er down and give him the nomination.

Why does staying with a man who cheated on you repeatedly make you a "strong" woman?

who cares?

Way to go Chelsea!!

HILLARY 08

Chelsea's comment yesterday proved a very big point for me. Regardless of whether someone is on the "Clinton side" or the "Obama side," the thing we Democrats need to realize is that Hillary may be "less likable" than Obama, but that could work to the Democratic party's advantage. Republicans have been digging up the dirt on Hillary for years and have pretty much drained the well dry. The question thrown at Chelsea yesterday wasn't anything new. It was old news. Very old news that no one cares about anymore which is why Chelsea's response got such a big applause. Obama's past is pretty much an unknown factor. When the Republicans start digging up the dirt on him, it will be new and attention getting. Just like the pastor controversy was for so many of your viewers. And it is that sort of "new" stuff that is likely to swing the independents to John McCain.

That incident showed just how weak she was. Hillary Clinton decided not to leave her husband after SEVERAL different affairs. The amazing thing is that the majority of women support this. Which leaves one to wonder, does the average woman think that cheating on them is acceptable. If they do I have some plans to make for the weekend.

Good for you Chelsea!

excuse me. The Clintons/Monica issue — shows a lack of conscience and sense of Shame on the Clintons. After the scandal and been impeached from the white house I wouldn't dare seek to return to the white house . I am glad the American people know the right thing to do.

..or perhaps she wanted the presidency so badly that she chose to stick around her less faithful husband through the scandal.

So now I`m guessing it is time to attack their daughter?How is this news?

Toronto,Canada

shut up chelsea.you are as bad as ur power hungry mother

I think Chelsea's reaction was overly dramatic. It was a credible question.

It was a legitimate question and if Chelsea is going to campaign for her mother she needs to man up and answer the tough questions.

Of course it's her choice to side step the tough questions. Just don't act surprised when Obama is running in the general election and her mother isn't.

Oh God, now this guy wants his 15 minutes of fame! First the Obama girl, the the Clinton add girl making add for Obama and now this! These fools are just crazy! We all need to pull to gether and either vote for McCain, which is looking stronger and stronger every day in many eyes, maybe he is the great uniter that Obama thought he was but is not!

Hillary or McCain 08

IT IS NOT STRENGHT AT ALL. THE CLINTONS HAVE NO SENSE OF SHAME. tHEY THINK THE AMERICAN PUBLIC ARE SO LOW TO VOTETHEM BACK TO THE WHITE HOUSE THEY HAD ABUSED IN THE PAST.

NO TACT WHATSOEVER.

She's just as arrogant as her mother. What do you expect, she's bred to be pompous.

I can see it already, she will be someday running for President, mark my words, and hopefully I'll still be alive to NOT vote for her.

She did not have to answer in that way, she should know that she has to be prepared to be asked just about anything.

Another instance that shows the arrogance of the Clinton family. Sarcasm and avoidance accomplish nothing.

yea way to go chelsea way to show a college kid who's boss just like your mother huh way to show america how strong she is……..NOT!

OBAMA 08!

Chelsea strikes me to be an intelligent and such a lady. After reading the article I understand the reporter, however Chelsea did quite well with her response. All of us would be defensesive concerning our parents

I dont doubt that Hillary is strong but I do believe that her ambition outweighs her strength…Chelsea absolutely gave the right answer to that stupid question…It's really time to drop all this crap and get back to real issues.

Let the past go.

I believe she was weak in not answering this question. She believes, "oh, i've been to all these places and no one has ever dared asked me this question, so you know what, I'm not going to answer it, HA! She is a joke. She needs to admit that she was caught off guard and needs to face the reality of what her father has done.

I don't think that Hillary decided to remain married to Bill because she is so string but rather a statement of how caculating she is!!!!!!

She decided to remain married because in her estimation at the time she had her eye set on the White Houas and didn't want to be seen as a quitter with the women on this country— after all women are her strong point— Most daughters would have responded the same in her place…. Sghe certainly doesn't want to say something that will be contraversial at this point in her mothers campaign— It what a smart political move for anyone that would have been put in that position…

For Obama

Can someone ask her why her mom is coming out bashing Rev. Wright? Her father, Bill Clinton has been to Rev. Wright's church and Rev. Wright was invited to the White House during her father's administration. Wolf Blizter can you get started investigating this please? I heard that Bill Clinton has been to Rev. Wright's church before.

How ironic. Well this certainly puts a foot in the mouth of the Clintonites who were screaming yesterday that the question was probably asked by an Obama supporter.

Not that Chelsea needed to answer the question, but given his reason behind asking, Chelsea lost an opportunity to boost her mom's credentials. Then again, it's best she didn't answer as she might have "misspoke" an answer to the question. I guess she hasn't quite caught on to the likes of the Clinton political savvy just yet. Could it be she won't end up like the mess that her parents are? There is hope for you Chelsea dear.

I can and do feel sorry for Hillary and Chelsea Clinton for the pain and humiliation that they have suffered because of this scandal, but I honestly feel that it is a legitimate question in regards to Hillary’s credibility. Even though Chelsea’s refusal to answer was understandable, I was disappointed in that refusal. We don’t need another cheerleader on the campaign trail, we need someone willing to answer our tough questions.

When Hillary stated that Rev. Wright would not have been her pastor and that she would have left his church, she brought this issue back to the forefront herself. A lot of people still have questions about how she handled things back then and her decision to not only stay with her husband, but also to try to discredit the women involved in his numerous indescretions to protect him. Don’t get me wrong, I believe that it was her choice whether to stay with her husband or not and no one can say what they would have done in the same circumstance, but I do have questions about her actions during that time.

I can also see where a man would not be able to push someone out of his life who brought him to the lord. Yes, Mr. Obama chose his church and minister, but Mrs. Clinton chose her husband and she chose to stand by him even after his disrespect of their marriage, their daughter, and the country. If Mrs. Clinton can say that a relationship between a husband and wife is more important than a relationship between a man, his minister, and his God, I question her judgment and credibility.

We have religious freedom in this country to practice any religion that we choose, but then we condemn someone whose choice differs from ours. We don’t want to hold someone accountable for ACTIONS her husband committed in the White House, even though she was there, but we want to condemn a man for something his minister SAID when he wasn’t even in church that day. How hypocritical is that?

I personally feel that none of them should be accountable for someone else’s actions, but I’m still waiting to hear Hillary talk about how she can hold someone else to a much higher standard than herself. Also, Chelsea you seem to be a very nice young woman, but you failed the ‘ready to tackle tough issues on day one’ test.

Susan from Indiana

Even I don't think this is that big a deal… But then again, if it were Obama's daughter, they would somehow tied it back to his old Pastor…lol

Maybe Chelsea thought she was under "sniper-fire" and just had a split second to react. That was the first thing to come to mind…lol

She gets to say only the good things about her mom but dismiss the things that bother her.
no one is reporting that chelsea confirmed her mothers story of sniper fire. her exact quote was i stand by my mothers story.
Like mother, Like daughter

This guy was looking for trouble from the very beginning and is only looking to thrust himself into the spotlight. He was interviewed on the CBS early Show earlier today so he got what he wanted. Of course, leave it up to some stupid college kid to put a damper on things.

Because Chelsea has been 'kept away' from reporters and their scrutiny, I have to wonder just what really is going on inside the head of Chelsea Clinton. Has she simply become part of the Clinton machine, blindly doing what they ask her to do and thinking none the less of it, or is she reluctant to keep standing up there and saying things to imbellish her mother, but does in fact see that her mother is pulling off some really low political moves to get the nomination? I really don't know Chelsea, but for some reason, I feel a bit sorry for her.

The acorn doesn't fall far from the tree. Instead of answering the question,chelsea showed she is no better than her mother .

I'm surprised that the question came from an alleged Clinton supporter. I originally was surprised anyone would ask the question, but I agree — I wish she had found a way to answer the question in another way than not answering it.

Chelsea, Grow UP !!

This is something that is very much all taxpayers business. We paid for the investigation, We the taxpayers pay for your mother and fathers saleries right now and we pay for theirs and your secret service protection. We have a right to know the answer.

This certain scandle happened in the Oval office to which your father was elected into by us.

Your mother has you campaigning for her to be elected by the public. Everything she does is our business! She put herself in the public eye, now live with it.

If you can't handle the questions, get out of the spotlight.
The questions are only going to get harder.

You're not 12 anymore !

I'm no supporter of Hillary Clinton, but why on earth would you ask CHELSEA a question like that? Instead I would ask "Do you REALLY think your father would put you and your mom in the line of SNIPER fire?" Since her mother remembers the incident a bit differenty, of course. But this Lewinsky thing is entirely out of line.

What is this Tanya Hardy approach by Hillary Clinton? When is something going to be done about her being out of control. She is bringing the party down. It's time to step in and help the party - not Hillary! Enough is enough. She is not only embarrasing the party but she is also embarrising the United States.

I guess she doesn't know why her Mom stayed with Bill either. Any self respecting women would have left him after the continual and well documented mistreatment of women. How is Hillary going to stand up for this country when she can’t even stand up for herself?
God Bless America!

Chelsea was a child when all of that happened. Last time I checked most parents did not share every detail of the sex lives (with each other or outside their marriage) with their children. I'm sure Chelsea was privy to more information than most children would be because of the situation. How would you like someone publically asking you about your parents sex life, or affairs?
Yes, she is a public figure, but not in the same way that her parents are. This was an unfair question to ask. Chelsea did nothing wrong, why punish her for it.
As far as I'm concerned this was a private matter between a husband and wife. I don't care if he got a hummer in the oval office or not - did it affect his ability to lead the country? NO! Maybe GW should have been getting a little more nookie - then he wouldn't be on his, "I'm the daddy" high horse running the country into the ground. The way it played out in the media made me sick. Bringing it up again now makes sick. We all know now that he was not the only president to fool around during his term in office - why can't we move past it. It's a marital issue - not a political one.

so she's okay with open marriage.

NOW said "we have better things to worry about"

another clinton supporter said "every man and woman have their own covenant"

I am a democrat and a Barack supporter, but loved Bill Clinton and think he's the greatest president we've had in a long time.

However, Chelsea is an adult now, and the question is not out of bounds, If she's going to engage in politics on behalf of her mother she should not be treated with kid gloves, and her outrage at the question is pretentious, offensive, and catty at best.

Chelsea, you're a grown woman, and putting yourself in the public eye. Act like one if you're going to engage in politics at the presidential level and answer the question.

I am not a supporter of Hilary Clinton, however, I do think the question was totally out of bounds. We need to ask questions and get answers that affect us.

Hilarious that it was a Hillary supporter, after everyone commented that it must be an Obama supporter!

Obama '08

GO HILLARY

HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT

HILLARY 2008

Not a politically important; but, the response was a little terse. Even though I support Obama, and I am angry how her mother has RE-INTRODUCED the Wright issue, I really do not think that the Monica thing has anything to do with THIS campaign. Suprise Hillary folks ….we Obama people are not as negative as you folks are !!! I do believe that the "none of your business" is a little negative toward an audience that would be considered supporters. Sort of nasty…………….a more Diplomatic response was in order. She certainly has been asked about this MANY times over the last 8 plus years. She is representing NOT ONLY HILLARY BUT THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY when she is out campaigning. Courtesy is always important.

Way to go Chelsea. Spoken like a true politician. It was rude and awkward for the question to be asked in the first place and she did a fine job in fielding it.

I'm not a Hillary supporter in any way, but I feel like the question was out of line. That is a question that Hillary, and only Hillary, should be asked. If she is asked, I do feel it is her responsibility to answer the question.

A Statement on Wright from the Clinton's Presidential Pastor

A STATEMENT CONCERNING THE REV. JEREMIAH WRIGHT

The Reverend Jeremiah Wright is an outstanding church leader whom I have heard speak a number of times. He has served for decades as a profound voice for justice and inclusion in our society. He has been a vocal critic of the racism, sexism and homophobia which still tarnish the American dream. To evaluate his dynamic ministry on the basis of two or three sound bites does a grave injustice to Dr. Wright, the members of his congregation, and the African-American church which has been the spiritual refuge of a people that has suffered from discrimination, disadvantage, and violence. Dr. Wright, a member of an integrated denomination, has been an agent of racial reconciliation while proclaiming perceptions and truths uncomfortable for some white people to hear. Those of us who are white Americans would do well to listen carefully to Dr. Wright rather than to use a few of his quotes to polarize. This is a critical time in America's history as we seek to repent of our racism. No matter which candidates prevail, let us use this time to listen again to one another and not to distort one another's truth.

I'm sorry, but even though he may have had good intentions, the question was in poor taste. Whenever I see a reporter bring this issue up, or bother to research her records to see where she was at the time, I can't help but wonder about the reporter's motivations. Is this news, or gossip? To me, it says more about the people (and network) bringing it up than the Clintons.

I am sad to say that I sense the same arrogance in Chelsea as in her parents. It is extremely rude to tell a supporter off in public.

You really cannot have it both ways. We need to get over the fact that Chelsea is no longer that 12 year old peaking out of the Oval office window. She has clearly put herself out there in the political world and is therefore fair game.

The voters have a right to have their questions answered. The Lewinsky issue was not personal. It devastated our country.

Good for Chelsea and she's right, it was none of his business. It's a very private family matter. Coming from someone who has experienced infidelity and has stayed with my husband, it does make a woman stronger in alot of ways. This young man should ask his mother if his father has ever cheated on her, I can bet he has and I can bet he'll feel that its a private family matter too.

she responded beautifully, her parents flaws are not her baggage to carry, she is entitled to honor and respect, why should the parents deeds affect her, she is outstanding and mild mannered. I applaud her, keep up the good work Chelsea. Be Proud to be the daughter of an American President. You were chosen as that.

Good for you, Chelsea! Mr. Strange, since when did the actions of a philandering husband determine the electability or lack thereof of his/her spouse? Surely, you are not saying that 1) Senator Clinton is responsible for her husbands alleged affairs or worse 2) Her presence in the White House shows support or knowledge of the affair with Ms. Lewinsky or worst 3) Senator Clinton has lost all credibility because she may have stayed with her husband out of a sense of obligation to her wedding vows of for better or for worse?
I do not claim that Senator Clinton may not have had her own motives for sticking with her husband. BUT, I do think that there are certain lines that should not be crossed and posing this question to Chelsea was one of them. By all means, pose it to the Senator herself.

come on Chelsea, you decided to go and campaign for your mom and the best thing was just to answer the question. ooops "its non of your business was just rude"

Evan is my hero! Even though he was misunderstood, the is still a strong supporter. Thanks Evan; I understand what you tried to do. Just think of it this way, at least you got more coverage for Hillary!?

I agree totally with Chelsea's response. The question is not relevant to to the campaign and should never have been asked. In fact, being the father of four in there middle twenties I would have told them it was a stupid question to ask.

THAT EXPLAINS HOW THE CLINTONS ARE HONEST WITH THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.

That Hillary is strong and has repeatedly risen above controversy and personal pain and difficulty is self-evident. We all know that. Her endurance and strengths are legend.

Thus, no legitimate reason for that question.

I felt this was a golden opportunity for Chelsea to boost her mother's record, her strength and how the family has been strengthen from this tragic situation.

Chelsea Clinton is not any better than her mother. Here is why
1. She new when her mother was lying about bosnia trip she was there with her.
2. Both her and her monther new when bill was in trouble for having affair with Monika, but tried to cover him up.

It is very sad her mother is not a good role model, she have no choice but be like her mother.

I t became a part of the news again, when Obama people referred to the "blue dress" in comments they made about Clinton, not only about irrelevant information about where Hillary Clinton was doing during that time period.

The question was in bad taste.. Who want's to visit that 3 ring circus again anyway? Is this real news?

Chelsea refused to take questions at those 70 college campuses she visited so that's a lie. The Clinton's are experienced liars and the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

I need someone to explain to me how "staying by your man" when his has completely and utterly disrepescted you both privately and publicly shows that you are "strong."

In the circles that I travel in, we have another word for that, "sad."

The way Hillary handled that situation isn't exactly what I would want to teach my daughter or sister. And it certainly isn't they way I would expect my wife to react if I was in our home office engaging in extramarital activities with a young employee.

I think her response is yet another indication of her poor judgement.

As a Democrat I'm sad to see that even Chelsea is divisive. Democrats want a candidate they can see as being up front about everything. Chelsea made an immature statement, and it's sad to see her mother considers a man's religion as fair game, but her husband's impeachment scandal as something to keep quiet about.

Questioner showed his lack of maturity in asking the question. And it is irrevelant to what is happening today. The answer Chelsea gave was actually TOO kind. Also do you really think a Hillary supporter would bring up such a difficult time in Hillary's life?? I don't think so??

She is worse than her mother. What is she doing there isf she cannot even answer questions????

More non-substance comments from a non-substance campaign member.

Cue the Hillary apologists and people who say Chelsea shouldn't have to answer tough questions because they think she's still a little girl who should be protected.

Hillary's smart, and the best candidate for the Democrats, but she (and Chelsea) need to start answering these questions. It's not as though the McCain and the GOP will forget to ask.

I think he was sincere in his question however, would he had asked that question prior to Lewinsky being put back in the media recently?

I felt it was a perfectly legitimate question. After all if Hillary is asking us to elect her to lead the most powerful nation in the world then we can ask her about being why she forgave her husband. C'mon, who will she forgive in the future or pardon? If she let her cheating husband off so easily who else will she be letting off easy. It was a fair question.

You go girl!!! Why don't you like my comments CNN???

Talk about shock and awe…….If the comment is anything against Obama, then 9 times out of 10 you delete it…this is really sad. I have been a CNN viewer for over 15 years and to see how you do people on here, and the bias for Obama on the CNN news channel is totally amazing!!!

ha, it still strikes a nerve, obviously. Chelsea also shows she is certainly cut from the same cloth as her parents. no more Clinton/Bush rule/regime. they all need to go away (but they always manipulate behind the scenes).

He could have asked the question differant if thats what he was trying to ask.

i meant White house is not a private place

Maybe the questioner should have asked Chelsea whether she would stay married to a serial adulterer who cheated on her innumerable times and what it says about the character of a woman who would put up with this type of emotional abuse and disrespect from her husband.

Are all the Clinton's unstable?

I'm not a Hillary supporter, but the way the question was asked seemed to be a legitimate opportunity for Chelsea to talk about her mom's internal strength. At 27 Chelsea should have been able to articulate a thoughtful answer. For Chelsea to respond the way she did, just underscores that there is a lot of internal ill-will and anger towards her father.

It's typical for a Clinton to not answer a question and expect you to believe everything they say. Chelsea may think it's no one's business, but when her mother wants to be the leader of our country, we have every right in the world to know what her intentions are. A right wing conspiracy was Clinton's excuse for her husband cheating. That was her rational. I wonder if she used that same rational when she voted to send out troops to die in Iraq?

I'm sorry chelsea, it didn't start out as any of our buisness, but your father made it our buisness. he was our president, and he lied to the american people about this. this is our buisness, sorry. besides, you should have been able to defend your mother a bit better, you could have dismissed the question along with bringing your mother up. poor job on chelsea clinton's part.. what did she honestly expect? that her fathers impeachment is just going to.. go away? just wait until the repubs start attacking her.

Right on, Chelsea!

The media and american people are such idiots. Do they understand that none of this has one thing to do with current political issues that will affect you and I. So ridiculous, no wonder the rest fo the world laughs at us.

Good Answer Chelsea!!

Ha! It was a Clintonite who asked the question! Now let's see what all you Clintonites will say! Let the hate begin (by Clintonites)!!!

Obama '08!!!

Like Hillary her supporters will turn on anyone that should some up why we need to turn the page on HILLARY/MCCAIN

Good for Chelsea is all I can say. That questioner, if her statement is true, should have confronted Hillary with such a question, not the daughter. Shame on that questioner.

Since Chelsea is now stumping for her mother, it only seems fair that she has to answer uncomfortable questions like this. She is a grown woman, no longer the little girl we saw in '92. If she has not found an answer to this question after a decade, then why should we listen?

How is it "none of your business"? Isn't Hillarys reputation important if she is President ?

She is her mother's daughter; absolutely rude, dismissive, and ultra secretive. I hate to say it, but when your mom writes a book and talks about the topic, its fair game. Get with the program or get off the trail.

That away to go Chelsea. It isn't anyone's business,you said the right think. How would other people like their parents personal live's be brought up public constantly? You get your fighter from both of your parents, thats good. Dont let no one walk on you.HRC go all the way

She acted really inappropriate with her answer. You can see on the tape that the guy was just asking a question. If she has a problem answering questions that might be personal maybe she shouldnt be doing this stuff.

Ever notice how the Clintons have a rehearsed 'you hurt me' for everything?

I think Chelesa needs to grow up. She wasnt very professionasl in handling this matter. She needs to have some lessons on how to handle it.

Why oh why does the media stroke the flame?!!! Why have the questioner even on to be interviewed?! The MEDIA truly is the problem…

I think that was a very inappropiate question to ask a daughter about her mother and father. I wonder how the questioner would feel if asked a question like this about his mother and father.

Hillary Clinton is an incredibly strong person. She has endured unfair media coverage and constant negative personal attacks by Obama and his supporters, but she has shined throughout and remained the strongest Democratic presidential candidate. She will be an excellent President for our nation. Let's get on to the real news- and try to be fair to all candidates (including the female candidate).

No child no matter his or her age should have to justify the actions of their parents….It was a personal matter that I am sure was delt with between her parents. It sickens me that Obama supporters feel that she should have had an answer..NO SHE SHOULD NOT!!! This has nothing to do with her mother running for office. Some of us can not answer for our own descretions much less our parents. To me her answer was valid and true!!!! YOU GO GIRL!!!! HILLARY 08

Doesn't this guy realize that you don't question the Clintons, even if you are on their side? Learn your lesson from Bill RIchardson, or you'll be labeled a Judas.

Even though I'm not a Hillary supporter, I agree with Chelesa that is no ones business but her parents.

A better question would have been about the lie her mother told concerning a trip that Chelsa was on….I would have asked why do you think your mother lied about the trip to Bosnia, and secondly, why would a mother take her only child and place her in harms way???

she missed a golden opportunity to make herself and her mother appear stronger if she would've just answered the question instead of being rude to a voter. i understand its a touchy subject but it goes to show how the subject has made u stronger. Look at the Obama race speech he took a touchy subject and made himself powerful over it. The Clinton's are going to have to accept this as reality one day if they are going to be the nominee cause the republicans will have way worse questions and comments. They need to show that they can tackle these subjects as if it doesn't affect them. (Notice how i keep saying "they" as in plural) But until then i dunno if i can say that they're more electable than Obama and im a supporter. We'll see what happens.

Great response, good for you Chelsea.

Enough…how many articles does CNN have to have on this non-issue. Cheslea was right to say "none of your business."

Let's get back to the real issues and what IS our business…release your tax returns, earmarks, Library donations…Hillary. And, stop insulting me with your diversions about Rev. Wright, who was good enough to invite to your White House, to deflect the truth about your lies about your experience.

I beg to differ with Chelsea CLinton and her response. It is the business of the American People when her father was enticing a young impressionalbe intern in the Oval Office (Paid for by the people of America through our taxes). He was working for the people. He should h ave taken his dirty activity to his HOME, not in our WHITE HOUSE.

Finally, someone had the guts to even bring it up. I lost respect for the woman years ago because of the way she handled Bill. I always thought she turned a blind eye to further her own agenda. Chelsea showed one thing - she's just like mom - spin a lot of words and then avoid the entire subject matter.

Of course it's our business and relevent — because of Hillary's comments about the "vast right-wing conspiracy." This goes to judgment every bit as much as questions about Obama's church go to questions about his judgment.

And I don't see anything wrong. I agree with Chelsea's answer.

Chelsea should know by now that when you become a public figure by virture of your family or whoever, everything becomes everybody's business. If she doesn't believe it just ask persons aquainted with any president, any governor, any Mayor, any preacher, anyone in the sports arena. housewives, anybody who has any claim to fame be it positive or negative. And when you find people that constantly lie, especially Mom and Dad, then you better learn to say words like Jesus paid It all.

She is uncivilized and full of bad manners. Ought to have used a diplomatic way to evade the question. I conclude she was not properly brought up…MUM not paying attention…playing war games in her mind !

How could Hillary Clinton take her daughter into a war zone unless it is self interest.

who cares

So much for the claims that it was an Obama supporter. Besides why would we do something like that. I mean really we get to click on the CNN Election Center and see Obama's delegate count everyday.

It was a legitmate question and if Chelsea can't play ball with the big kids then she shouldn't be on the big kid's playground. She had an opportunity to tell us about her mother's character and she took the wrong way out. If the Clintons (the whole family) are going to get pissed off at the questions they don't like, perhaps they shouldn'
t put themselves in a situation where people can ask those questions.

It's one thing to protect their families, but if you put her out there, she should not be insulated like this. She's an untouchable surrogate. She is over 25 and a professional. It's just wrong how they are using her.

You Obama supporters make me sick. Grow up! If this is the least thing that a politician has done we are very lucky. Obama hasn't been vetted yet so who knows what we will find out. Get back to the issues…you don't want to discuss that because you are supporting an empty suit with a very small record. Hard to criticize when there is nothing to find, right?

Chelsea handled the idiot with grace and dignity. What an idiot to ask her that question. Get over Monica thing, who cares. Go after the repub who are still in office after committing crimes and say their guilty. Geez.

I would think since that scandal happened in "People's house" it is very much our business, once again the Clinton's think they are above reproach for their shameful actions in the whitehouse; not to mention breaking the law with perjury. I do not want these ICKY people back in the whitehouse !

The question was about Hillary's credibility, how is that not our business? The President's credibility is very relevant.

Chelsea is a grown woman not a child, she should have acted that way by answering the question much better. Chelsea wants to be out there therfore she needs to play the game like everyone else.
It was a good question & should be asked by more who should press it until a proper answer is given.
Lewinsky like it or not, is a part of political history.

It isn't any of his business.

I was surprised at her response, too. It really was a missed opportunity to expound on Senator Clinton's resiliency and strength. I'm shocked that Chelsea is out there stumping for her mom and is somehow allowed, by the press and the public, to only answer the convenient questions and avoid talking to the media AT ALL (even child-reporters.) Who else in this race is allowed that latitude? Chelsea's not a child anymore, and if she wants to put herself out there for her mother's sake, then she should do it all the way. If she doesn't have thick enough skin to answer the tough questions, then she should stay home.

I don't blame her, I suppose I understand what the student meant by asking the question but it was just in poor taste. Consider what Chelsea, let alone her family, has gone through due to that scandal - you would be defensive too!

I believe it was an honest question as well. Chelsea can be so smug sometimes………….typical.

I guess congratulations are in order for another Clinton just trying to sweep a genuine question under the rug. Nice of this story to follow up the one on how Clinton 'misspoke' about running from sniper fire in Bosnia.

And for the record, Clinton supporters may not support Obama in the general election but Obama supporters will sure as hell not support Clinton if she wins. I'm guessing the Dems won't be in that oval office anytime soon.

Way to go Chelsea! You have grown up to a smart, wonderful young lady, and I am sure that your mother is very proud of you! What kind of a jerk takes something like that out on the innocent kid?

I mean what did you expect??? You are talking to the person who was, probably, hurt the most in that infamous situation. Did you expect Chelsea to just chat as if that was just a trivial situation?? If you indeed want to know this, you should address either Hillary or Bill not their daughter, common?? Are we supposed to feel sorry for ya???

Wait…a reporter asking a question with a political motivation?!?!

I think her answer was very immature and rude. Hillary and Bill knew someone would ask Chelsa this question and they should have prepared her for the question better.Then again if it had never happen the question could not have been asked.

The reply was well-deserved. I'm NOT a Clinton supporter, but thought the question was one that has been beaten to death. It doesn't take too much to understand that he really DID mean to stir things - it's not a question that lends any weight to Hillary's strength. He could have used some common sense and asked a question that has relevance. Good for you, Chelsea! It was a question that begged to be dismissed! Evan, you're a goober………

I'm amazed at her response because it seems to me that all Obama personal life seem to be everybody business and know one has a problem with asking and expect for him to respond to any question that is asked. So what make Hillary any different. I believe it is a lagitimate question. Hillary want to expose everyone else dirt but not her own. So if you don't want something to be done unto you then don't do it to someone else. Plan and simple. See, this is what being negative and throwing dirt around will do to you, it eventually will come back to you.

It is very annoying to see Clinton supporters blame Obama for this. It was a Clinton supporter who asked the question. Then people act as if this question was in bad taste. The question was perfectly legit. Chelsea needs to understand that this IS the American people's business. People are tired of the secrecy from the Bush administration and now it seems that we will be getting the same treatment from a Hillary Clinton administration. The last thing the American people want to hear is "it's none of your business".

How in any way does her decision to stay with or leave her husband affect her ability to be president? If she were the one cheating then perhaps it would be relevant but otherwise isn't it basically "none of your business" how she chooses to deal with it?

Personally I cannot see how it shows strenght or lack thereof? I just think its one more thing to needlessly try to needle by devisive Obama supporters. hope indeeed

You see how Chelsea refused to answer a question she didn't want to answer. Why couldn't her mother do that yesterday when she was asked about the whole Rev. Wright thing. "I was asked a question so I answered." She could have refused. But she didn't want to because she wanted to take the attention off of her own faults. The Clintons are crazy and manipulative. Most of all, a great disappointment.

Good for Chelsea. Shame on the student. I think Chelsea's response shows how strong SHE is. Maybe we will see her in the political areana one day.

If someone is going to ask such a moronic question, you should ask it of the person that it directly affects…Hillary….and not her daughter. Some of you people are always looking for an excuse to hurt someone in the Clinton family. What does that say about YOU, you bunch of sadists???

I seriously doubt he is a Clinton supporter, but more of an Obama supporter in sheep's clothing. Hillary Clinton supporters are concerned with issues, such as the economy, not the salacious details of a decade ago.

It's past. It's history. It's really no ones business.
Let's all remember what Rudy Giuliana said when asked about his numerous extra-marital affairs and multiple marriages.

Clinton family has no shame and 're all liars—why she couldn't answer a simple question from her mum's supporter? Shameful.

Obama 08…..

What a tasteless, mean-spirited "gotcha" type question to ask.

Great question that should have been answered! It goes to the heart of why a majority of Dem voters, and other parties, question the validity and motives, of the Clintons.

Must be another real slow day for CNN!

April 22nd and the PA. primaries can't get here fast enough so that you can report on some real news that will definitely make a difference for the democratic nomination and the presidential election.

All of this hoopla is nothing more than just plain silly and has nothing to do with the real issues that will affect all of us.

Do you really think bringing up all this old news is really doing anything positive and contructive?

We all know about the "affair" and the "sermon" but not too much on the specifics of the real issues that seperate Hillary, Barry, and John.

Good for you Chelsea–you don't have to answer any questions that make you uncomfortable!! Yeah Hillary '08!

Hillary deserves this kind of treatment. She has her daughter campaigning for her, Chelsea should have stood up like a 28 year old woman and answered the question.

Evan Strange asked the DUMBEST and CRUEL question. Any son or daughter will answer it the same way as Chelsea did.

Chelsea, KUDOS young lady.

Senator Clinton was the victim of her husband indiscretion.

This makes Obama in my lists ain't worth even half a penny.

Jamie, I thought you were talking about Obama there for a minute,Cnn I dont care if you dont post my comments, I worry that you dont even get them? thanks to Obama supporters on fox blogs taping into it Ihave no idea whose using my name and e-mail, Its getting scary out here!!!!!!!!!!

It's extremely tacky to ask a daughter about a sex scandal of her parents. Would you feel comfortable to comment about your parents' private life?

Why doesn't CNN report on Hillary's ridiculous answer regarding her Bosnia trip??

Go watch the video of her response about LYING to the American people. She cannot look at the camera…she looks down the ENTIRE time. Sure sign of lying.

How cany ANYONE trust her???

Obama 08

Chelsea is so very intelligent and hard working. Her response was DEAD ON RIGHT!
Obama supporters you have divided the party. It is time for Hillary to start her own party and win in november. We don't need Obama supporters to win in november you need us A LOT MORE.

It was just a question…and why are we even listening to Chelsea, she is so privileged..what could she really know about the real world and what the average American is going through.

Give me a break. Did you even read the story?!?!? The woman who asked the question said she was a Hillary supporter. One of the reason I am not supporting Hillary is how her supporter respond to these blogs. You know not everything that is negative is a Obama and/ or his supporter fault. Chelsea is almost 30 years; not a child. Honestly, I am surprise this is the first time she was asked this quesiton. Personally, I thought it was a dumb question–yes, I was curious, but I would have never asked der daughter that.

He should have known better to stick with the issues if he was indeed a Clinton supporter. This Monica thing is so tired!

I don't support Hillary or any of the potential candidates for that matter. But I think that Chelsea made the proper statement. IT IS NONE OF OUR BUSINESS. People need to get a life when they make things like this their business.

What has the Monica issue to do with Hillary's run for the White House? I think Chelsea was on the ball and it is no one elses businnes at this point. Move on folks!

I'm sorry but if you really watch the reply, it comes off about as spontaneous as her mother's "that's change you can xerox" answer in one of the debates. She knew sooner or later someone would bring it up and was prepared to be "shocked".

Actually it is our business after all ……The mother is campaigning to be a leader of the free world……though it is a personal issue but it is also a public record…….she ..chelsea may not know how to answer the question or felt very embarrased by it …but her mother can and should be asked this question …which by the way no body has asked so far …and I think it is legitimate question to ask ……after all it did happen !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BOOHOO, poor Chelsea. If you can't stand the heat, get off the campaign trail. I'm sick of everyone treating her as though she is still 12.

Good for Evan! keep asking her these questions, she can't keep living in a shell, he idiot dad was the culprit of the whole mess and took the job of being the president as a joke and orgy. Chelsea had nothing to do with it, but she needs to hear these things, she is a grown up and this will always be around as long as there is a Clinton around.

Obama doesn't have anything like that to worry about, he is honest, he just needs to get rid of that idiot James wrong goof.

I just find it funny that someone would think Hillary would be a strong leader in the first place!

Obama Richardson 08!!

Chelsea will answer the question only when it becomes clear that Hillary needs another diversion away from another lie she gets caught in.

The Clinton strategy: Avoid tough questions until you need a diversion.

The Obama supporters need to change their silly slogan "Yes we can" They sound like the socialists with their slogans like Venceremos or Patria o Muerte Venceremos.

she should have just answered the question

I think it was a valid question. We cannot forget that while in office, Bill repeatedly cheated on Hillary but she stayed with him why…HER PRESIDENCY. So if Chelsea cannot answer the tough questions she need to stop campaigning for her mother.

Seems like a non-issue to me. It was too personal a question to ask Chelsea. Kind of like watching a train wreck. Thanks CNN for once again putting things on the ticker for the sole purpose of causing controversy. Yes, CAUSING controvery, not reporting something controversial.

Please do not judge this until you have lived through it.

The Clinton's personal life is no ones business, but their own. Every situation is different and no one should judge another. Live and let live. I applaud Chelsea's response. Hillary is the best candidate to be Commander-in-Chief. She has leadership, experience, a plan, and genuinely seeks to improve the Country. She is our only hope to get back on track. Obama is smug and arrogant with little experience and no real plan for the future. He has absolutely no chance of beating John McCain. Vote Hillary in '08!

Fair question (after hearing the explanation) and her answer indicates she has no business being on the campaign trail. There are plenty of people that have endured cheating spouses that might have liked an answer in which they could have related. Missed opportunity.

Chelsea's response was great, way to go kid.

The questioner might have felt it was a legit question but in reality it was very wrong to ask that of the daughter. How else could she respond to that kind of question?

If it was an innocent question, then it was a fair one if Hillary Clinton was responding. It was unfair to ask her daughter to respond to what was probably a very traumatic and personal experience for her, as well. But, great response by Chelsea Clinton. I support Obama, but no matter who you support, it was not Hillary Clinton's fault that her husband cheated on her, and that is not a strike against her. Maybe her marriage vows meant something to her.

Guess this means Chelsea won't answer any questions regarding her parents dealings with Whitewater, her mother's activities at the Rose Law Firm, and what it's like to be the daughter of an impeached president??

Oh well, what's her mother's favorite color then?

Good for you, Chelsea!! Your opinion of this past scandal is no one's business but yours. Hang in there!

I'm a Obama supporter and I believe that he's racist. There. Anyone can claim anything they want without consequences.

Although I think it was an inappropriate question to ask the daughter of a lying cheating man, she has put herself in the middle by campaigning for her mother. If she thinks what her father did as our commander and chief is none of our business, she is VERY wrong!! Hillary is not the right person for the job!!! It is our business when you except the role as President of the United States of America!! Can I get an AMEN!!

Yea, missed opportunity for her there.

I am not a Hillary fan by any means, but Chelsea had a nice setup there I thought - there are so many things she could have said that would have really turned that around and made people say "Wow". Instead, she opens with something about not being asked this question in X number of colleges (buying her time to consider a response in my opinion - after all, she gets some new questions everywhere she goes I'm sure, but I doubt she says to each one "you are the first to ask…"), only to say it's none of his business?? I'm sorry, but it is his business - this was a legit question as it was worded and judging by his response to the situation, he meant no harm.

If she is going to take things personally, or use the "none of your business" response to avoid legit questions she doesn't want to answer, maybe she should not be out doing this for the campaign.

She chose this, so I'm pretty far from feeling sorry for her - I have a hard time believing she didn't ever expect to get a question related to the incident.

She anwered the question she wanted to answer, not the question that was asked.

The question was about her Mother's credibility - "not any of our business?" Wrong answer.

The right answer would have been "I don't think it has."

Either Chelsea is not very bright, or she is programmed for damage-control mode by Mom.

Rule of campaign: Any question that touches on a Clinton scandal should be shouted down….

Scary family.

When Evan Strange was given the opportunity to present a question to Chelsea, couldn't he have come up with an intelligent question dealing with current issues, rather than bring up something that has nothing to do with Hillary's capacity to lead this nation. People like Strange remind me of gossipy old women whose only importance is how much they can be the center of attention with trashy stories about other people. Grow up Mr. Strange - you'll need to before you get out of college and into the real world.

Obama is the one without shame…to have a pastor, friend, mentor and so called family member…to talk like he did about America and whites is totally disgraceful!!!

GET OUT NOW OBAMA!!!

I dont see why Chelsea responded that way. It doesnt make sense.

The question IS our business.

Hillary's credibility after staying with a husband that cheated on her 3 or 4 times is harmed. So the question was fair.

It seems as though Chelsea had that answer PREPARED for anything that had to do with Monica, and was going to use that answer even if it didnt make sense.

His question was totally inappropriate.

PERIOD

He had every right to answer, just has Hillary did when asked about Rev. Wright. The student did nothing wrong, when you campaign, no questions are off limits.

Obama 08

Chelsa have the same Bobble Head as Hillary..

We see your true colors shining through. Apparently it is ok to talk about Obama's past but Hillary's is off limits. Sad so sad

A woman chooses to remain with a man who is a serial serial adulterer and you say we do not need to know why? It happened when he was on our payroll and shew wants to rule us and you say we don't have to know why?

I certainly don't want to set that kind of example for my children.

All the Obama folks don't seem to be full of hope anymore. Please don't drag Hillary Clinton into the Obama core of hatred.

The individuals question was not consistent with what he was trying to argue with his friends. Sounds to me that he was trying to instigate.

I'm an Obama supporter and I found the question tacky. Good for Chelsea for not commenting on this situation that was probably very devestating for her. She's campaigning for her mother for the POTUS nomination, she shouldn't be expected to comment on a very personal situation such as the Lewinsky debacle.

I thought CNN was a 24 hr News Channel.

What is this fluff?

Chelsea is not cut out for politics if she cant answer a question because it's difficult. Part of the penalty that Bill deserves to pay is to forever have that blemish on his legacy. That is why cheating on yor wife isnt worth it. Years later people still question the affair, Bills judgement and moral character. Thats the price you pay…she cant get mad at the questioner..she needs to get mad at Bill.

Chelsea, i guess actions that cause impeachment of an American President by Congress is nobodys business if you're not a Clinton.

i moved from america to europe and all my friends are wondering why we choose to focus on this things when our country is almost in recession,its pathetic,God,theres so much hate

Like mother, like daughter. Avoid the truth, lie whenever possible- just don't get caught. If you do get caught, you just "mispoke".
