Clinton campaigned in Montana Sunday.

MISSOULA, Montana (CNN) – Hillary Clinton on Sunday predicted “more twists and turns” in the primary battle with Barack Obama during a campaign event in Montana — one of the last two states to weigh in on the Democratic presidential race on June 3.

At a town hall meeting in Missoula, the senator from New York said the race is so close that “we don’t know how it is going to turn out.”

"This campaign has been exciting and incredibly energizing — for people all across the country — and I believe with all my heart that it is good for the Democratic Party to give the people of Montana a chance to vote in June, to have your vote counted and your voices heard," she also said.

While listing her credentials to be president, Clinton also said people vote for different reasons, including how a person looks or their hairstyle.

"And that is another difference, you know how long it takes me to get ready than my two opponents — I mean really just think about it," she joked. "I think I should get points for working as hard as I do plus the time it takes to get ready."

Twists and Turns - this is code for Hillary's "April Surprise".

I wonder what she has in mind for Obama?

Something nasty, no doubt.

cathy   April 6th, 2008 4:48 pm ET

So now that our so called experience claims are being debunked, we are going on grooming habits??? I think this campaign has become as big a joke to Hillary as it has to the rest of us. I am counting the days until July.

Isaac   April 6th, 2008 4:49 pm ET

The only people who "don't know how this is all going to turn out" are the ones that are in denial.

JacknJill   April 6th, 2008 4:50 pm ET

Hillary, do our country a favor.
Just stop with this crap of how wonderful you are.
You are downplaying what's truly important here and making the voters sound like junior high girls in a popularity contest.

We do not care how long it takes you or anyone else to "get ready".
We DO care that you lie to make yourself seem better than you are or make the country seem worse than it is.

We need a HOPEFUL President, not a lying President.

…………….MORE TWIST AND TURNS= CODE WORD FOR……………………

WATCH OUT I AM ABOUT TO THROW ANOTHER KITCHEN SINK

AND HOPE THAT MY LIES WORK LIKE THEY DID IN OHIO.

Marie in California   April 6th, 2008 4:53 pm ET

I watched most of Hillary's town hall meeting this morning from Missoula. She's still going strong, still concisely defining problems, still offering solid solutions…..and, I'm glad to say, still keeping her sense of humor.

No Obamination in the Presidency!

Hillary or McCain - 2008

joe   April 6th, 2008 4:55 pm ET

im sure obama people will make a racial remark as they are doing allthrough the campaign to keep the media covering up for obamathey should be ashamed

daniel dbe   April 6th, 2008 4:57 pm ET

lame! OBAMA 08

Lorraine   April 6th, 2008 4:57 pm ET

"While listing her credentials to be president, Clinton also said people vote for different reason"

WHAT credentials could she possible stll be speaking of, as they have all been proven to be fabricated???

Jonah   April 6th, 2008 4:57 pm ET

I predict more lies from the Clinton campaign!

daniel dbe   April 6th, 2008 4:57 pm ET

PLAYING THE GENDER CARD AGAIN HUH?

maya   April 6th, 2008 4:58 pm ET

“ I am still trying to…understand what he (Obama) has done for the country beyond his middle-of-the-road political moves to make his name known and to steer clear of hot-button issues. The Rev. Martin Luther King had a dream, too. But he acted on it. He went to jail, he marched, he led.” –Helen Thomas 4/6/08

O My!   April 6th, 2008 4:58 pm ET

Now you want people to vote for you because it takes you longer to get ready than your opponents. I guess after you answer the phone at 3 am we're going to have to wait until 5 am before you act so you can get ready. No thanks!

Yes We Can!!

Obama '08

Jesse   April 6th, 2008 4:58 pm ET

Another Clinton lie!

Another bad decision on day 0

Hillary can't get her story straight and can't keep lying to people and exaggerating her experience

She can't be honest and say, "Yes, I voted for the war." … which she did.

All her experience can be summed up as the wife of the president!

And if you think she is so experienced then Chelsea should be the governor of some state???

Wake up people.

Ps watch out for those snipers LOL

james   April 6th, 2008 4:59 pm ET

I think that you should lose points for saying that Hillary. It looks like you just get out of bed and throw something on. Maybe yu should stop those 3am phone calls… they are for Bill anyway.

bakersfield   April 6th, 2008 4:59 pm ET

she will win penn. by 12% and then 3 days before n.carolina john edwards will endorse her and she will win n.carolina she will win out then.

Djools from the Netherlands   April 6th, 2008 4:59 pm ET

She is pointing to the nuclear option. One week before Pa. her campaign will launch it.

Grif   April 6th, 2008 5:00 pm ET

Were these really the Comments of Hillary? Twist? Or the Twit who wrote this piece. There was no mention of a certain word in the Heading… Is this how the Media "Twist" other statments they say Hillary made…. Who pays you're wages Mr?? You're over Paid, and over experienced…. You should be employed by NASA, Bon Voyage…
Mar' s next stop….

Dean from Maine   April 6th, 2008 5:01 pm ET

Yeah, more TWISTing of the truth in order to TURN out votes. Good joke though.

Karen Branson,MO   April 6th, 2008 5:02 pm ET

This is getting so tiring. Aren't people tired of hearing Hillary changing her story and her views yet? As time goes on, Hillary just keeps getting harder and harder to listen to, or BELIEVE for that matter.

I'm tired and tourist season begins even with high gas prices…much more fun. I'll just wait and see what June brings.

Have a great summer!

Independent   April 6th, 2008 5:03 pm ET

You get point for every lie you have told, and tried to get away with. I do have one question - How do you look in the mirror every day? If I were as deceiptful and you and your cronies, I would hang my head in shame! SHAME ON YOU, SENATOR CLINTON!!!!

Mike Andrews   April 6th, 2008 5:04 pm ET

Hey Hillary, The only time I want you to spend getting ready is getting the truth about your experience staight !
Joke or not, I'm sick of you trotting out your gender every time the going gets rough!!!!

Ken in Western NY   April 6th, 2008 5:04 pm ET

Oh please, give me a break !!! Of course she's going to say that it's good for the democratic party for her to stay in the race until the bitter end. And unfortunately, that's exactly what it's turning out to be - very bitter.

And the race is not so close that “we don’t know how it is going to turn out.” … She has to win all of the remaining primaries by landslide victories, plus convince a ton of superdelegates to vote for her. As we've seen lately, more and more of the superdelegates are coming out in support of Barack Obama, as they are realizing that he truly is the best candidate - or more likely that she will not be able to beat McCain in November. Obama can beat him, though.

Go Obama!!!

Gnosticman   April 6th, 2008 5:04 pm ET

Yes there will be twists and turns, Obama will twist and turn his way into the presidency, Clinton will twist and turn her way into defeat. I am glad Clinton is continuing to run as it will only further legitimize Obama's inevitable victory!

QuietStormX   April 6th, 2008 5:04 pm ET

You know, I'm tired of Hillary and Bill Clinton! The lies and half truths show that Hillary and her campaign spit the truth they make-up. Since IOWA, Hillary has been saying and waiting for Barack to make a mistake and drop out… Not going too happen!!!!!! He is leading in States won, delegates and popular vote. She needs huge wins to get even and more than that to overtake his lead. Hillary and Bill Clinton are dreaming to think she can steal the nomination and win the election when Baracks supporters don't support her and don't support her in the election. I know I won't vote for her, the way she has campaigned…….

Just get out of the nomination and shut-up!!! And stop dreaming Hillary.

Mikey from Scottsdale AZ   April 6th, 2008 5:04 pm ET

Hillary's campaign is simply a clinic in disaster.. How on earth can anyone expect this candidate to become Commander In Chief ?
Be ready on Day One ?? She isn't ready after 35 YEARS of embellished experience.

PLEASE PEOPLE WAKE UP !!

Geroge Bush is beginning to look good !

sunny kang   April 6th, 2008 5:05 pm ET

the reason we have record breaking voter registration and attention is not because of you Billary. It's because of Obama!!!

Election Observer from Germany   April 6th, 2008 5:05 pm ET

"At a town hall meeting in Missoula, the senator from New York said the race is so close that “we don’t know how it is going to turn out.”"

Ha ha good one!

If you take a look at the polls and the negative things around her campaign from the last days, i think the most people know how is going to turn out..

I think there will be no "more twists and turns" positive for her.

Mark, Vancouver, WA   April 6th, 2008 5:05 pm ET

She did not just say that she "should get points" for the "time it takes to get ready" did she? This ridiculous campaign she has run has bottomed out. How can a person who can't even manage her primary campaign expect to run a country???

Marie-Lynn   April 6th, 2008 5:05 pm ET

The 'twists and turns' will be april 25 2008, with Paul vs Clinton..That I think the biggest twists and turns, of her campain…

BR   April 6th, 2008 5:05 pm ET

How is the race so close again? Obama is nearing a 200 pt. lead…He's almost matched her in superdelegates…and over the past few weeks about 17 new superdelegates jumped in-line with his campaign?

People vote based on how a candidate looks? She should get points for dressing up? Joke or not, this woman continues to make a mockery of the process. Using false stories on the campaign trail - Making up stories about landing in war zones. How much more of this do the American people need to hear? We shall see whats happens over the next few weeks. She's the top,'cause she spin's with the best of them.

Roy   April 6th, 2008 5:06 pm ET

If Obama stops playing the Bush card and lets the voters be herd, You will win this Hillary! I can't keep up with him which card he is playing day by day! The Race Card, The Bush Card, the She said Card, Oh yes there is the Poor little boy Card! Stick to the issues and stop playing cards Obama and tell us what you stand for! Hillary stands for something and the next day you come out with the same thing. Are you a Leader or a Follower? Obama better not win this he will have to call Hillary at 3 in the morning to find out what to do!

AJ - Winston-Salem, North Carolina   April 6th, 2008 5:06 pm ET

Cute - I love you future Madame President! :)

Charles in Columbus   April 6th, 2008 5:06 pm ET

OK. If Obama gets criticized for playing the "Race Card", I call foul for Clinton continuing to play the "Gender Card." Between her comments and Bills, if I were a woman, I think (*) I would be offended.

(*) I'm not a woman, so this is speculation

nadeem   April 6th, 2008 5:07 pm ET

Huh? At this point hillary is becoming incoherent.

A little reported fact, Obama has held a delegate lead since the very first caucus/primary in Iowa.

There have not been many twists and turns, he has been the consistent leader.

Texas   April 6th, 2008 5:08 pm ET

What's funny is….she's the only candidate in this race that will not be on the ballot in November and still she continues to talk.

WHY HILLARY…WHY DON'T YOU JUST PACK UP BILL'S HORSE AND CARRIAGE AND JUST RIDE BACK TO HOPE, ARK.

IT'S A WRAP…….

mama4obama   April 6th, 2008 5:08 pm ET

dry up already. I have had enough.

andrea benini   April 6th, 2008 5:09 pm ET

Walt, Belton,TX   April 6th, 2008 5:09 pm ET

What Hillary really means is "More Lies Coming!"

seitu   April 6th, 2008 5:09 pm ET

isnt that sexist???

Daniel   April 6th, 2008 5:10 pm ET

Interesting, may be Hillary wants 100 delegates bonus for the time it takes her to get ready. Is she trying to come up with some more reasons why she think she should be the nominee? Give me a break.

Scott Emily   April 6th, 2008 5:10 pm ET

were with you………….. or john McCain, it's up to DEAN_O

Ronald Reagan democrat

Beca   April 6th, 2008 5:10 pm ET

The Energizer Bunny! Keep going Hillary!

B-DOGG   April 6th, 2008 5:12 pm ET

The headline should read…… Clinton predicts more" lies and stretching of the truth"

Brenda   April 6th, 2008 5:12 pm ET

Now I've heard everything. People should vote for Hillary becaue it takes her longer to get dressed? She's so ignorant.

James   April 6th, 2008 5:13 pm ET

"The race is so close that 'we don’t know how it is going to turn out.'"? She must be kidding. It would take a complete collapse by Obama for him not to win both the popular vote and the pledged delegate vote. And it is not *that* close.

Judy   April 6th, 2008 5:13 pm ET

HAHA Hillary made a funny….

paul k   April 6th, 2008 5:14 pm ET

if hillary thinks its unfair that it takes her longer to ready her self then
her oppents. she can always drop out. and or else spend less time
making up windys.

Linda   April 6th, 2008 5:15 pm ET

Insulting!!! I should give you points because it takes you longer to fix your hair? How about what it takes to fix the income? the housing market? the loss of jobs? the war in iraq?

Please do not play the I am woman card, it is insulting to us woman who are trying to be judged on our credientials and not our gender.

Dori in AZ   April 6th, 2008 5:15 pm ET

Hillary gives us a lot of credit for how we choose our country's president, doesn't she? VERY junior high school girlish! Was she having a flashback?

Definitely NOT presidential! Definitely NOT giving the American voters any credit to think for themselves and make decisions about the issues, either.

With as much energy as this campaign is generating - and, as many registered voters who are truly interested and involved in the process, and following the debates and the speeches - one would think she'd realize that it isn't about hair and makeup and wardrobe. (That would be a beauty pageant, Senator!) But, well, you know, keep talking, Hillary!

Si se puede! Obama 2008!

Joseph   April 6th, 2008 5:15 pm ET

She is behind 140 pledged delegates. Since March 4th she's LOST one super-delegate, and Obama has narroed her lead from 100 to under 30. Who believes this race is close?

Tex   April 6th, 2008 5:15 pm ET

Even when Hillary jokes, she's really saying "I am entitled to be President because I am Hillary…because I am a Clinton!

Penny   April 6th, 2008 5:17 pm ET

Hillary, you can try to look your best at all times but it won't do any good. The people of the country now know what you will do to get elected. You tried to lie about Bosnia and the sniper fire. What a lie that was and you even had the nerve to put your daughter in the lie with you. Shame on you and everyone that would want a BIG LIAR FOR THEIR PRESIDENT!

nancy   April 6th, 2008 5:17 pm ET

Looking at this whole page there is almost every story about Hillary how bad she is nothing at all about Obama who the media thinks is the best thing since peanut butter and jelly now you tell me that CNN does not just love obama and does not want to say anything good or bad becuase people again would say something about Wright and media does not want anyone thinking about Wright anymore.

McCain 08

Jamil, Dearborn, MI   April 6th, 2008 5:18 pm ET

In other words, vote for her because she is a woman. I give her credit - it is hard work to come up with so many lies, make arguments for changing the rules she agreed to, pretend the race is close when she is being blown out, say she is more electable when she is losing by every measre (states, votes, delegates), etc…

gerald strother   April 6th, 2008 5:19 pm ET

Clinton drops hospital story , they have no shame and will do any thing or make up speechs that is not true is this what it come down to ?

Bayou Joe   April 6th, 2008 5:22 pm ET

Twisting and turning is called Squirming. Both her and Obama are weasels. They jump out of one frying pan into the other. Put a different spin on what they said and life goes on for them. Put it bluntly they are POLITICIANS. That is what they do for a living because they talk a good game but can't produce results.

McCain on the other hand is more like JFK. Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country.

That is why JFK was the last Democrat I have ever voted for.

The Obamas, Bidens, Pelosis, Clintons have stolen my party from me. Hijacked is more like it.

Everyone I speak to today laments the same thing. The Democratic party is out of touch with the Country and the Honest hardworking people whose sons still believe this is the greatest country in the world and are willing to die for it. Semper Fi.

David   April 6th, 2008 5:23 pm ET

I thought Hillary claimed she wasn't going to use the race or gender card. Yet here she is, slipping in a veiled reference to the fact that she is a woman and that, because of it, it takes her longer to get ready in the morning than her male opponent, and that because of her gender disadvantage she should be given extra "points."

How much more desperate can you get? Here Mrs. Clinton, who has incessantly criticized the discrepancies between words and actions, has become yet once again ironically the perfect case study of the very discrepancy she decries, failing to act in a manner consistent with what she claimed she would not do.

Rusty   April 6th, 2008 5:23 pm ET

Clinton, needs to get a dose of reality. The race isn't that close…to even tie in delegates and popular vote she would need 60/40 wins in all remaining states and that is near impossible.

It's to her advantage to claim its close, make it sound like she shouldn't quit because its a neck to neck horse race, but reality is she's behind by several lengths.

Cami   April 6th, 2008 5:24 pm ET

"And that is another difference, you know how long it takes me to get ready than my two opponents — I mean really just think about it," she joked. "I think I should get points for working as hard as I do plus the time it takes to get ready."
————————————————————————————-
Hillary, PLEASE stop playing the gender card. Statements like yours just make it harder for all women to be treated equally. With $109,000,000, surely you can afford a personal hairstylist, make-up artist, and fashion consultant. Please stop whining.

PA   April 6th, 2008 5:25 pm ET

Are you SERIOUS?????????????? As a woman, I don't even know what to say, except HUH??? Extra credit for doing your hair??? ARE YOU KIDDING!?!

Ahead of the game   April 6th, 2008 5:25 pm ET

Honestly this woman will do and say anything to win, First she repeated the joke "maybe we should offer Barack a pilllow" to get sympathy for the "so-called" media bias, then she joked about the sniper fire in Bosnia to make the fact that she lied seem trivial, and now she jokes that she should be credited for the extra effort it takes to put on lipstick and mascara…and we should sympathize with this? So who is injecting gender into this race? First it was the tears and now this!
Look lady, Edwards had more hair than McCain and Obama and was always perfectly groomed. I'm sure he put some effort into it and you didn't hear him whine! Hillary C. Clinton…C for Calculating.

Shirley   April 6th, 2008 5:25 pm ET

Ok white women of certain age let's all vote for Hillary because we are sympathetic with how long it takes her to get ready to go out. This is another gender tactic delivered as a joke.

s yacenda   April 6th, 2008 5:26 pm ET

The world is burning up — with predictions that we have a few years to save the planet. People all around her are slowly starving to death or slowly dying due to poor sanitation and sans drinkable water, here at home in the USA the government covertly tortures, spies on, and detains whomever it chooses to, and Hillary speaks of needing points for time spent on getting dressed. Really set an example HRC: cut your hair off, give your millions to the poorest of the poor, and wake up. Folks need to grasp that it's being sexist if you give someone power because of the sex he or she happens to be; a particular sex gives a human neither innate wisdom nor morals.

Only Hillary damages Hillary   April 6th, 2008 5:27 pm ET

Great. Clinton is at it again. Attack, Attack when things aren't going my way. Distract, Distract, because not as many people are voting for me as I always thought they were. But, Daddy, I want it NOW!

Juanita   April 6th, 2008 5:27 pm ET

Some earlier commentor said this race was better than any other reality show on TV and wow was that commentor correct!!!
It's like the Soap Operas that leave you on the edge of your seat at a crucial moment and you HAVE to watch it the next day.
What other devious, sneaky, underhanded, vile thing does Clinton have in mind? I HAVE to keep watching to find out!

Mark-TX   April 6th, 2008 5:28 pm ET

I agree that the voices of all of the voters should be heard. The campaign isn't truly over until everyone has had their say, after all.

Clinton really needs to shut up about the pledged delegates being able to change their votes, though… isn't that against this whole "let everyone's voices be heard" argument? After all, there are more than 4,000 people in America that deserve to have their opinions heard, but if pledged delegates could change their minds and vote however they wish, then the delegates are free to ignore the voices of their constituencies and vote however they please.

I wouldn't mind Clinton being the president, but her saying these two opposite statements at the same time can't be good for her credibility.

David Dotson   April 6th, 2008 5:29 pm ET

Okay, Clinton has been a great a fierce competitor in the very beginning of this process. But "how could you vote for someone who consistently lies, use the race / gender card and exaggerates every truth there is for an edge"?

People are not voting for her because they think "she is qualified". She is getting votes from older racists democrats "who are not interested in change or interested in seeing a black man in the white house".

Jordan Fitzpatrick   April 6th, 2008 5:29 pm ET

Hillary says: "I think I should get points for working as hard as I do plus the time it takes to get ready." How is that not playing the woman-card? Pathetic.

XMS   April 6th, 2008 5:30 pm ET

OH YEAH I'M SURE THERE WILL BE MORE TWISTS AND TURNS. ALSO AND ENDLESS SUPPLY OF DRAMA IF YOU ARE ELECTED. I WILL VOTE FOR YOU HILLARY IN NOVEMBER IF YOU ARE IN THE GENERAL AS I DEMOCRATS NEED TO COME TOGETHER BUT RIGHT NOW I'M VOTING FOR OBAMA.

TedM   April 6th, 2008 5:32 pm ET

I'm sure Mrs. Clinton will provide plenty of twists and turns herself as she tries to twist the truth and turn the tide away from Obama.

jim   April 6th, 2008 5:32 pm ET

She finally found something she can do—- Go back to Arkansas and work on ur hair!!!!!!!!!!!
Who needs a politician who tells Lies constantly ==every day on the campaign trail??
Watch Barack Obama— consistant=== truthful– and down to the level of the Pennsylvania blue collar workers…………
Go Obama in Pennsylvaia

marty from Indiana   April 6th, 2008 5:32 pm ET

Hillary needs to spend even more time getting ready. She has been looking tired and old of late. In fact, she is starting to look like John McKean.

Debra2   April 6th, 2008 5:33 pm ET

No comments. CNN censores in order to help Barack Obama!

Ron   April 6th, 2008 5:33 pm ET

Hillary..Hillary…Hillary….You are REALLY starting to annoy A LOT of us. And guess what ..when you annoy people, they have a tendency of not voting for you…Two or three COWARDLY Democratic leaders have suggested you drop out because they allow FEAR to be a motivating force in their mind. I am HOPING that no more of them say this because it is really STUPID!! Men need to realize that this gives the "APPEARANCE" you are picking on a woman. While this is not the case you have GOT TO REALIZE it is one of Hillary's largest motivators for the women who are over 50. So PLEASE just BE QUIET..Let it run out to June 4th….and then if the delegate count favours Barack….Tell her…BYE BYE..it is over…

Susan MO   April 6th, 2008 5:34 pm ET

At first for Obama, now for Clinton!

Sterling Harris, M.D.   April 6th, 2008 5:34 pm ET

Here's two points for putting on make up. Now, please step aside and allow Senator Obama to become the next President of the United States!

Gerry (AUSTRIA)   April 6th, 2008 5:34 pm ET

If it takes a very long time for her just to dress up ,then which time will she have left for the presidency even if she is elected. She better take up a job in the fashion industry

Brian from NYC   April 6th, 2008 5:35 pm ET

She will stay as long is it takes to ruin Barack's chances in November so it can set her up to run again in 2012. If Barack wins she'll never be President that is the only reason she is running this negative, disgusting, and me-first campaign. If she doesn't run now or 2012 she'll be too old and have Barack's VP to run against in 2016! Clinton = me first, all for me!!

*eyeroll*   April 6th, 2008 5:36 pm ET

Please, Hillary, just go away.

GCG - Austin, TX   April 6th, 2008 5:37 pm ET

Does no one seem to pick up on the daily hypocrisy of her words?

She claims that she wants to make sure that everyone has a vote, but then in the same breath states that none of the delegates are really "pledged" to a particular candidate and can vote however they want. If getting a "pledged" delegate to change the vote from one candidate to another is not "violating the will of the electorate" and thereby disenfranchising all of the people that did vote for a particular candidate, I don't know what does.

She is a hypocrite every time she speaks about delegates not being pledged, but no one seems to see that, or recognize it, because they are blinded by their support of "the good old days" or the feeling that she is somehow "owed" this.

Sickening.

judyb   April 6th, 2008 5:37 pm ET

How much time it takes to get ready??? She has her husband and daughter out there campaigning for her full-time while Barack's only got Michelle, who is also trying to be home with their daughters.

Stop the female pandering Hillary and run on the merits of your policies, if there are any left. Your experience is now laughable.

Katie   April 6th, 2008 5:37 pm ET

Hillary Clinton winning the Democratic nomination, or worse, winning the Presidential election, will prove to the world that we are nuts! If she was Pinnochio, she would have an old oak tree for her nose.

ann   April 6th, 2008 5:37 pm ET

plus the time it takes her to come up with "revisionist history" of her life and accomplishments

DFoster Georgia   April 6th, 2008 5:38 pm ET

So … Hillary's a comedian now? Does she really understand the magnitude of this race? She's spun so many lies she's dizzy.

Gregory H. Brooklyn New York   April 6th, 2008 5:38 pm ET

Sen. Clinton' prediction of more 'twists and turns' sounds quite dubious. Should I be looking for the sky to fall??? I'm sick of the pessimism, I am looking for some hopefulness, some relief, some OBAMA vision.

Samina WI   April 6th, 2008 5:39 pm ET

and here she goes again..trying to play the gender card . There might be some fools who actually fall for that! What a pity!

Hillary is the Answer!!!   April 6th, 2008 5:39 pm ET

Hillary will win Pensylvania, thus gain momemtum and win must of the rest of the remainding primaries…There is a shift comming; that will surprise the unbeliever…

Dayahka   April 6th, 2008 5:40 pm ET

Not ready enough, apparently, given all the fantasies, like sniper fire in Bosnia, and misstatements that result from her meetings.

Farrell, Houston, Tx   April 6th, 2008 5:40 pm ET

I give Hillary a lot of credit, but I can only take so much of her and right now I've had enough. She needs to take a "chill pill" or something because like myself and so many others are right about now sick of Hillary Clinton.

Joanne   April 6th, 2008 5:40 pm ET

– "I think I should get points for working as hard as I do plus the time it takes to get ready." –

So she should get gender credit?

That's exactly why I'm voting for Obama. No muss, no fuss, even at 3am in the morning. The guy's naturally gorgeous! Just look at him! How do ya like them credentials?! (Just kidding. I honestly think he'll make a better president, regardless of appearance. OBAMA '08!!!)

Diane   April 6th, 2008 5:42 pm ET

Another Clinton "tall tale"….she's a piece of work!!!! Her lies and stories are too much.

MurphyMorseJohnson   April 6th, 2008 5:44 pm ET

The Clintons' appearance, like Billary's $2000 haircut and Hillary's comments in Montana, is obviously distracting them. Devoting so much time to appearance, they are making misstatements on a regular basis. Take the Clintons' recent errors on Bosnia, Colombia, and now Ohio–they probably wish somebody would. So much for truth, justice and the American way as well as judgment, experience, wisdom, and control the Clintons' arrogantly say they have….

But, then again, the Clintons are known to make misstatements to misguide voters into voting for them. May we wean ourselves once and for all of the Bush-Clinton Dynasty.

Lifelong Democrat   April 6th, 2008 5:45 pm ET

PA For HILLARY !!!

YOU GO GIRL !!!

I love this woman :D

Marc   April 6th, 2008 5:46 pm ET

Some people vote on how somebody looks. That sounds like codes to me. What does she mean by that. Is she really trying to tell the people in Montana not to vote for Obama because of the color of his skin or vote for her cause she is a woman or what. I just don't understand this woman. Anybody smart can tell what she is trying to say. She is really sad and the more I get to know her, the more I am starting to feel that she is a racist. I hope the people in Montana vote for Obama because he is the right choice for this country and we don't need a liar in office again. We already had enough of Bush, please don't put a Clinton in office again. Too many lies for this country to handle.

I think this is a national security issue if a President takes too much time to get ready and be available to the military, adminstration and public at the time of emergency.

Could she be more pandering, phony and shameless? End this, superdelegates.

jesse   April 6th, 2008 5:50 pm ET

Mrs. Clinton:

The intelligence level of the people in Missoula, Montana is not as low as you may like to think. This election is not close as you did put it. Obama has an insurmountable win in pledged deligates that you will never be able to overcome. You need an average of at least 35 percentage margin points to be a contender for nomination. This process could end in Oregon on May 5, 2008 when Obama captures the majority of the pledged delegates. Montana, South Dakota and Puerto Rico could be outpla. Are you talking about the same election? Do you know other things that are beyond he intelligence to the people in Missoula, Montana to figure?

Sherman   April 6th, 2008 5:51 pm ET

She said what? the race is so close? please some body tell me what planet does she lives? billary must be honest and recognize that she should quit from democratic party. Is imposible the nomination for her and the world knows that is the big true.

Democrats Are What's Left   April 6th, 2008 5:51 pm ET

She is just flailing in the wind now. It seems to me that her taking too much time to do her hair is really a negative. She's about as credible now as a bag of bricks.

Please spare us of anymore dribble Mrs. Clinton. I need to be able to take my hands off my ears at some point.

Madtown   April 6th, 2008 5:51 pm ET

You've got to be kidding me!!! Is that supposed to be funny?!? I find it totally ridiculous, why would you even say something that stupid?

Jack - Miami   April 6th, 2008 5:51 pm ET

Just what I want - A president who uses gender or race-based excuses. She wants extra points for having to take time to get ready? I know she is joking - just like she was joking about sniper fire and insulting our armed forces personnel who do face sniper fire on a regular basis. How do women - especially those who have excelled, have faced challenges in a male dominated business world, have dealt and overcome with gender-bias - ever vote for someone like HRC who setting women back?

Gerry (AUSTRIA)   April 6th, 2008 5:52 pm ET

This race is not so close that we don´t know the outcome. Everybody except Hillary and some people on her campaign team know how this race is going to turn out. The answer is that Obama will be nominated and she will be busy docking from sniper fire.Face the reality Hillary and according to your husband " Chill out "

Brian   April 6th, 2008 5:56 pm ET

She is right we should vote for her, because it takes her longer to get ready in the morning.

Jeff in PA.   April 6th, 2008 5:58 pm ET

Hillary, the only twist and turn is you heading for the exit door…bye bye, you are the weakest link….

Mike   April 6th, 2008 5:59 pm ET

YEAH, WE KNOW YOU'LL DO ANYTHING OR SAY ANYTHING TO WIN.

MM   April 6th, 2008 5:59 pm ET

It takes her more time to get ready…..please. If a man had said that he would have been booed. I really don't appreciate a woman saying that either.

What are these "twists and turns" the headline is alluding to? I heard a brief snippet on the news the other day that the Clinton campaign is saying that there will be something else that they are going to bring out against Obama. That they hoped the media would reveal it, but as the media hasn't, that the Clinton campaign may have to expose it. Anybody else heard something like this?

seanwhit   April 6th, 2008 6:00 pm ET

This week it is the gender card. Could you imagine Margaret Thatcher or Benazir Bhutto playing the gender card. I am all for a woman becoming our president but please don't let it be this nut!

And thats what you come with after all that time of getting ready?

Bob   April 6th, 2008 6:04 pm ET

I can imagine the campaign will have twist and turns if Hillary starts telling stories. Lying, crying and showing emotional is all her dramatic twist and turn to win the nomination.She says her experience is a qualifiction to run this country. See how this country is messed up with all the experienced people like Bush and Cheny. I feel it is better to have a new younger generation candidate even though they have less experience. Wake up to save this nation from Dynasty.

Voice of Reason   April 6th, 2008 6:04 pm ET

The only thing twisting and turning are your words, Clinton.

TheAntMan   April 6th, 2008 6:05 pm ET

Wow , how will she manage a 3am phone call if it takes her that much longer to get herself together? The implication is that a call at 3am is an emergency. Shouldn't she lose points for being so slow compared to the others, that is usually how contests work? Is this a statement on her planning and preparation skills?

Tim Ohio   April 6th, 2008 6:13 pm ET

Obama can not win enough delegates to secure the nomination and should drop out of the race now, in the interest of party unity!

Joe   April 6th, 2008 6:32 pm ET

She's right. There are many twists and turns in the Downward Spiral.

I hope that the media checks all the stories that precipitate carefully, that is to say, expose any lies or embellishments.

Jack   April 6th, 2008 6:37 pm ET

Hillary has a shot at winning Montana b/c even tho it's a state in the west, an area that Obama has done well in, Montana has a primary, not a discriminating caucus that suppresses voters….

This race has been done for a long time. All we've been getting from the Clinton camp has been lies, lies, and more lies. I thought damage control had significance, but I guess not. They just keep digging themselves in.

Libertine, Fort Myers   April 6th, 2008 6:43 pm ET

Hillary, everyone knows how it's going to turn out but you and your campaign.

That said, I'm glad you're still hanging on…between you and Rush's Operation Chaos, Obama is really raking in the dough.

Vig   April 6th, 2008 6:44 pm ET

The way Hillary has been disadvantaged by the gender biased, male-dominated and controled media conglomerates, if she wins the nomination, it surely will be destiny calling . Mortal man cannot control the twists of fate.

Kaywood Hopkins   April 6th, 2008 6:44 pm ET

So what we should vote for her cause she takes long to get her hair ready?!

I wonder how she can tie that to a 3am campaign ad?

She needs to not make the mistake most professional boxers make…get out while you still have your belt! I mean come on…she's trying to use the gender card to her advantage…but it is not advantageous to working women for Hilary to joke "I think I should get points for working as hard as I do plus the time it takes to get ready."

Is she running out of ideas since Penn is grounded?

james   April 6th, 2008 6:48 pm ET

better quit

LB   April 6th, 2008 6:48 pm ET

Clearly Hillary is in denial but I suppose she is trying to spin the thinking of the voters.

I don't think she realizes that many of her planned strategies will disenfrachise voters… For example, the idea of counting the popular vote when many states have held caucuses vs primaries… which is why they all get broken down to delegates… and the delegates count equally… otherwise she is trying to create a way of valuing things that will make the voters in caucus states feel undermined.
She wants to count TAINTED ELECTIONS IN MICHIGAN AND FLORIDA EVEN THOUGH SHE PUBLICLY, ON THE RECORD, STATED THAT THEY WOULD NOT COUNT FOR ANYTHING… VOTING AND CHOICE WERE SUPRESSED IN BOTH OF THOSE ELECTIONS AND THERE IS "NO WAY" THAT THEY SHOULD COUNT!!!
If it were not to her advantage, she would never allow it and in fact would point out herself how legally challenging that would be. I feel that I could file a lawsuit questioning the legitmacy of her candidacy were she to try to bully the DNC and Obama campaign into giving any kind of preference to the tainted election. The election in Michigan was not counted, perhaps the judge recognized the voter supression and choice supression inherent in the election. I do not want a president shoved down my throat illegally and I feel that this is exactly what Hillary is trying to do.
In my opinion she lacks integrity to such a degree that I cannot support her in any way and I will feel ashamed for her to become president. I also feel that there is no way an ex-president who was disbarred and impeached for LYING should be our First husband in the white house.
Even if she could win, SHE SHOULD NOT WIN!!
And I am ashamed that she is the woman who is coming closest to be our first female president but none of the women I know feel she is a good example for women or for leadership in general. She is certainly NOT someone I would want my daughter to live up to.
My daughter appears to have far greater integrity than Senator Clinton… and I am grateful for that.

I place great hope for the future of our country in the american people with the leadership of President Obama!

Realistic   April 6th, 2008 6:49 pm ET

Looks like all the twists and turns are in her campaign, and sharply downwards, i.e., getting caught in a half-dozen juicy fibs the last three weeks and having to disclose a serious conflict-of-interest of her chief strategist and finally sack him.

The way she puts out whoppers, Hillary should forget about the presidency and open a Burger King franchise.

TiredoftheCrap   April 6th, 2008 6:51 pm ET

Sue, Greensboro, NC   April 6th, 2008 6:53 pm ET

Here's what I don't get. Why do we have to know every twist, turn, word, misstep, bathroom visit, about any of these candidates and every single person they ever knew? Can CNN and other so called news outlets just give the facts that are pertinent without all the grandstanding? You people (news outlets) are trying to fill the 24 hour time period, I realize, however this bombardment with so much irrelevant "what if this" and "what if that" and the "how will this effect tomorrow" is old, tired and boring. People don't care about the minutiae of any of these people. All we want to know are the facts about a candidate AS IT RELATES TO THEIR ABILITY TO RUN THIS GOVERNMENT. And truthfully, we are so distracted by the suppositions of the "radio host panels", other pundits opinions that the important items we need to know are left behind. Has everyone forgotten that we are at war? Stop this insane "newsmaking".

Mike from Montana   April 6th, 2008 7:01 pm ET

John G, New York, NY   April 6th, 2008 7:03 pm ET

Hmmmm…

I'm not confident that the primary battle with naturally have "more twists and turns" as a result of the voters having their say. Instead, I foresee that the Clinton machine will do everything in its power to introduce more "twists and turns" in this campaign than a clown making balloon animals at a kid's birthday party.

MP   April 6th, 2008 7:03 pm ET

Is she saying she should win the nomination because its takes her longer to get ready in the morning? I guess sexism is wrong unless its in her favor. Vote for me women of the world because you know how hard it is getting ready to go to work. How did she get ready so fast to take that 3am call on the economy?

Christi in Canada   April 6th, 2008 7:04 pm ET

I think the world is looking for real change and Obama is liked around the world more than the other candidates.

That said, Hillary would be people's second choice - no question about it. I just hope her "twists and turns" don't amount to more kitchen sink tactics. It will hurt her in the end.

Its not only the US that is suffering from the fatigue of war - we are all tired of the US "crying wolf" - we are starting not to listen any more. Your president is a joke - and electing McCain will only continue the downward fall in your international reputation.

Judith D Ridley-Robert   April 6th, 2008 7:04 pm ET

Hillary, you need to quit beause you are too exagerate in this race and lie too much. We don't need another Clinton in the White House. Please, go home.

Nan   April 6th, 2008 7:06 pm ET

I am neither a Democrat nor a Republican; therefore, as an Independent I have no allegiance to either party. In truth, I have voted in many presidential primaries and subsequent general elections.

This presidential cycle marks the first time that I have voted for a Democratic candidate.

I voted for Barack Obama in both the Texas primary and caucus because I believe in his candidacy for a myriad of reasons.

However, I will not vote for a Democrat in the general election if Senator Obama looses the party nomination due to poor party leadership and unethical backroom dealings.

In fact, I will not vote for Hillary Clinton under ANY circumstances!

Sean Deason   April 6th, 2008 7:06 pm ET

It's 3 a.m. and the phone is ringing in the white house, but Hillary can't answer it just yet, she has to put her makeup on and do her hair first…

Ready on day 37   April 6th, 2008 7:08 pm ET

You know people, I've been thinking about it, and I really think we shouldn't be so hard on Hillary Clinton for not speaking the truth about the Bosnia sniper fire, the Ohio hospital story, and all of the other times the truth has gotten in her way. We must remember that she is a Clinton, and the Clintons are never to blame.

No, we should instead blame the truth for trying to get in the way of the inevitable Hillary Clinton nomination. How dare the truth try to steal this nomination from Mrs. Rodham Clinton? The truth clearly hates women, hates white people, is a naive hopemonger, and is undemocratic. The truth also fails to understand that Hillary Clinton is the only one who is ready on day one, and the only one who can pick up the phone at 3 AM to deal with the evil banks foreclosing on people's homes after standard banking hours.

The truth had no right getting involved in the Democratic nomination, because the truth is not even a Democrat, nor is the truth from a big blue state, nor is the truth a pro-Clinton superdelegate. The truth is nothing more than another Judas like Bill Richardson. The truth is nothing more than a John McCain supporter who happens to be a member of the vast right wing conspiracy against Hillary Clinton.

We must not allow the truth to get in the way of Hillary Clinton. If there is anything the Clintons have taught us, it is that the truth is wrong. We must not let the truth win.

Screw the truth. After all, if the truth is against you, why should you speak the truth? That would be like selling out to the Republicans.

Replicans in PA are openly saying that that crosssed over to vote for Clinton to prolong the primary. that didnt become news here in CNN. so strange.

John   April 6th, 2008 8:19 pm ET

I'm pretty sure it takes Mccain longer to comb his hair in the morning than it takes Hillary. McCain IS an actual war hero with genuine war experiences (including broken bones that now hamper his ability to raise his arms above his head), as opposed to the "snipper experiences" of a delusional presidential candidate.

paul   April 6th, 2008 8:22 pm ET

Clinton predicts more "twists and turns", in other words, she'll continue throwing the kitchen sink at Obama, WWE-style, and see what sticks. Getting Bill and other surrogates to do the dirty work. framing Obama as the black candidate (or worse). Blaming the media for being unfair to her campaign and always "asking her the first question". Fighting against the "disenfranchisement" of Michigan and Florida primary voters at the same time she insists that all the pledged delegates produced by primaries and caucuses to date are up for grabs. Pretending that she had a substantive role in dealing with foreign leaders during Bill's administration. Making up stories to make herself look heroic. Claiming she has "fought for working men and women" for 35 years, when in fact many of those years were spent in the service of Wal-Mart Corporation, infamous for union-busting and buying cheap goods from China. And did she mention that she was a woman, all you female voters out there, nudge nudge? Hey, it's really unfair, isn't it! Maybe she'll cry again the day before the PA primary, for those who were slow to pick it up.

Then Bill will pitch in with his patented rants, Obama's opposition to the Iraq war was a fairy tale, Richardson promised him 5 times to his face he wouldn't endorse Obama, etc. More lies! But he was POTUS, so people pay attention.

Send this couple back to Arkansas already, where they belong.

How long will Hillary continue to coax for votes by using her gender, in reference to her comment about she should get points since she needs more time (as a woman) to get ready? Get real! On the Ellen Show, she brought up the gender card again stating that as a woman she needs to be strong and not be bullied out of the race. If Obama was to use the race card to justify his support, he would be criticized heavily and appear to be playing victim. I know that its tough for both to face the criticism and bigotry of being either a woman or non-caucasian in such an important process, but to play the victim only feeds into the bigotry and prejudice, in hopes to seek pity or support. Rather she should just stand strong and be transcendent like Obama….people stand behand those principles.

Did we go through Bush presidency with some comic behind crime?

America knows how the election will turn out. We also know it is not close at all. I'm wondering if Sen. Clinton can read the writing?

Strange that she is predicting things done the road..seem to me that someone has some mischievous plans. Remember whenever you plot, try to dig another hole for yourself.

Why yes, I can image that it takes a great deal of time to come up with all those stories you tell. I'll bet it took quite some time to come up with the NAFTA story. And the Iraq story. Probably longer than it took to come up with the Bosnia story.

And now that Mark Penn "resigned" but continues to provide the Clinton campaign with polls and advice, how long is it going to take to come up with a story as to why he's still working for the Clinton campaign even though he sort of, kind of, resigned?

Did she really say she shook MLK Jr's hand? If she really said this, and it turns out not to be true (which is wh at I would expect), then her campaign is done for good. And not a moment too soon.

Strange that she is predicting things down the road..seem to me that someone has some mischievous plans. Remember whenever you plot, try to dig another hole for yourself.

Hillary is right. There will be twists and turns. It's her nature to be ellusive about everything she is and does. It is really bad that the first serious female presidential candidate is sooooooo evil and has established the worst example possible for any presidential candidate. Many women view this woman as possitive for the women's movement. But in reality, Hillary has shown over and over again that she is it for herself. The next woman candidate who run for our nation's highest office will have to distance herself from Senator Clinton or else she will doomed as the candidate who affiliates with liars and cheaters.

We hear you loud and clear Mrs. CLinton.
How long did it take you and your advisors to put this charged phrase together?
