CNN

The people who the candidates choose to run their campaigns speaks volumes to what kind of people they'll likely choose to run the country with them. Hillary Clinton has chosen extremely poorly, has had to revamp her campaign staff multiple times, has struggled to find a cohesive campaign theme, her staff has allowed Hillary to blatantly lie about her experiences in Bosnia, Northern Ireland, Kosovo, etc, they've worked privately to push policies Clinton says she's against, they've tried to tear down their opponents, they've given consistant double-speak to the voters about whether or not our votes matter, and they've financially managed the Clinton campaign in a horribly disfunctional way.

Hillary and some of her supporters may not think this stuff matters, but this is not the type of President I want.

I am not voting for Obama – Here is why.. he has no plans – he is a golden boy and his problems and baggage will soon come out during the general election. He only makes crucial decisions after people tell him what he needs to do – he can't do it on his own. I will vote for McCain and let him take us to war forever before I cast a vote for Obama.

Dear SN in MN,

You said, "Based on the posts in most blogs I read, the typical Obama blogger must be about twelve." Last I checked, I was 46 and had a PhD from an Ivy League school in economics. I support Obama.

It shouldn't be too damaging...my biggest question is...HOW COULD HE THINK HE COULD DO THIS AND NOT HAVE EVERYONE FIND OUT??? I just wonder if he didn't care it would hurt her chances to win. He has been around a while, he knows the game. It just seems a little odd.....

Wow! A year ago I would have been thrilled with the prospect of having a woman President of the United States! And while I would still like the idea of a woman president in general, I no longer think that Hillary Clinton is the one. I sense a "win at any cost" attitude that results in her not always being as forthcoming and honest as I would like my president to be and I am now convinced that she would have a severely polarizing effect on this country splitting Democrats and Republicans even further apart than they are now. Obama may not be the super hero some like to say he is but I think he is our best hope to break away from petty divisive Washington we have seen recently and God knows we can not afford McSame!!!

I think it's sort of funny that the guy on Obama's campaign never actually made the comments that were reported...but because so many other things were going on with the campaign, the fact that it wasn't true never made the headlines. Also funny is the fact that she was perfectly fine with not counting Michigan and Florida until she realized she couldn't possibly win without them. So much double talk!

How funny it is to read some of the posts from Hillary supporters.
Folks, I totally respect your right to support whomever you choose. That is what democracy is about, right?
Still, it is a little weird to read their posts. How do you guys justify all of these little fibs and flubs she's been caught up in lately? I know that publicly, the Clintons and their supporters have to put the best light on these scandals, as they possibly can. But, seriously, when you folks look at yoursleves in the mirror, you must know that your girl is in big trouble. SHe keeps getting caught in these lies and half-truths. How do you continue to support that???
It reminds me of the 28% of this country who still supports Bush.

Ok – fact:
Obama's name wasn't even on the Michigan ballot. Hello?? How can that be a fair election??

Come on!!

Letha, Sioux Falls, SD.

It's amazing that you could actually fix yourself to type the word idiots in your post and not realize that you made yourself sound like you have been living in a cave without any news from the outside world for the last two weeks. Just amazing!

Hilary come on!!. If I cant trust any word that comes out of your mouth now, how do you expect me to trust you as my commander in chief. First it was the snipper issue, then health gaffe, now this?. Penn, please wake up!

Why hasn't the turth about the Canada-NAFTA issue come out in the MSM??

Canada did an investigation into this and it came out the the Clinton campaign is the one that said it was just "posturing".

Goolsbee said Obama would work to change NAFTA, reaffirming his stance on the issue.

What ever happened to that???

TO: kathleen retired Professional w/woman for obama – Maybe you should look a little, just a little, into what the Clinton foundation actually does, and don't be so small minded.

Hillary did not make any changes in her campaign until she was no longer the front runner. McCain didn't make any changes in his campaign until he was running out of money. Folks the sign of a strong leader is to make changes when things are not going in the direction you want. We currently have a President that is unwilling to change the course no matter what.

Obama has belonged to a racist church with a bigoted pastor for 20 years. His judgment with regard to this church is critical to how he views this country. His wife's statements are a reflection of what the church's pastors preach. He has not supported either Michigan or Florida's voters because this is the way he won his previous campaigns - through legal manipultaion and exposing messy divorce records of his opponents. A typical politician.

Did she think she can really win Michigan and Florida?

Why didn't she challenged the DNC rule before these states even cast their votse?

Now she makes it look like she is the godmother to thses state fighting for them, but deep in her mind, she needs those votes to get close the nomination.

Now without these states vote she won't like the nomination process to end, when for a fact she double speak about voters right to choose a candidate.

Wait I want to make my point, If the pledgedelegates that were elected by voters could be up for grab, why border to fight for mich and flo to revote. Their votes do not matter anyhow. according to Hillary pledge delegate are up for grab, why campaigning spending money on add.

Hillary should have tell the DNC to form a process where all Pledge delegates and supperdelegate will vote for candidate of their choice.

It will be more easier then spending lots of money to campaign and later call the result of voters decision none and void. Please make sense Hillary!

Hillary would Support the Columbian Trade Deal "if". Says the
bottom of Cnn's TV screen.
Hillary and Bill tricked Ohio hours before the Primaries with the Canada, Nafta, Obama lie. Bill was in Canada at that time!!!! Something fishy about that. Obama won 14 states then lost Ohio!!!
Hillary and Bill donated $10 M to their OWN FOUNDATION!!!!! Nothing
to the poor and unfortunate. And they care about you!!!! They think
Voters are really stupid!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Shame on you" Clinton!

Did she think she can really win Michigan and Florida?

Hilary Clinton is a BIG LIAR. Why people have to trust someone likle her tolead the Country? She just want to go back to that white house for another 4 years to make it 12 years. NO WAY. This time, we need CHANGE, not the same old game in Washington.

Go Obama 08

He may not be the campaign manager, but he is still there, from what I can see all he lost was his title. Again fudging the truth.

Hillary is FINISHED. She is unelectable. She has No Experience, No Organization, No Credibility.

She is such scum! All she can do it throw trash at Obama. Can she never take responsibility for her own bad judgements. Obama could be making a big deal of this and saying she is using bad judgement "again", but he is not. Go home Hillary!!!

Her defense of "What about Obama's rep?" is meaningless. It's a fraudulent logic-less defense which, in debating circles, is referred to as "tu quoque" – you also. It's use indicates that the arguer can't win based on facts or logic and so resorts to mudslinging. Obama, you will notice, never defends his or his reps actions in this manner. That is not to say he never points out Sen Clinton's flaws, but never to say, "Think what I did is bad? Well, what about her?"

Penn tells Hillary to tell people that Penn controversy won't be damaging. nice.

Senator Clinton, you did not do anything! Penn quit, but is still on conference calls offering advice. This is the first time you are saying anything about the sittuation, days after it broke??? Also, you knew about this over a month ago.

How nasty, to bring Senator Obama into a situation that has nothing to do with him. If you are going to talk about Canada and NAFTA, let's talk about your people also going their and speaking to them. As I recall, Obama's people were doing an interview where the statements were misconstrued.

I don't want a President that says what she needs to and changes those statements depending on the situation. In your own words, you said that MI and FL would not count, but now that you need them it matters? Obama said that he would follow the rules of the DNC, will you? Oh, only if it suits your purpose.

And giving 10M to your own foundation (Clinton Foundation) is a little suspect to me. Especially when you disperse that money as you go through primary states......

Not my kind of President, in fact a bit worse than Bush. At least I know what I'm getting with him.

No campaign manager? No, this won't be a problem - not at all! This is just what we wanted! No sniper fire? Hey, proves I'm human, don't it! That lady actually had insurance? Whoops! Can't vet everything I say! Things are lookin' SWELL! I'm so excited to be here!

Okay, Hillary.

Any sane person (see, e.g., Mitt Romney) would have quit the race by now. Instead she is concocting theory after outlandish theory why she has the "right" to stay in. The woman - and the whole family - is psychotic. This is like "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington" meets "All the Presdient's men," as written by Edward Albee. It is too disturbing not to stare at slack-jawed. Doesn't it seem possible that she may actually injure herself or someone else in the final moments, when the realization dawns on her?

Each time Clinton campaign makes a mistake (and there are many lately), the first instinct is not to apologize to the American people but to attack the fellow Democrat opponet. Clintons only care about themselves. Mark Penn and the Clintons had and continue to have a very long, prosperous relationship dating back to the Clinton Presidency. The Clintons' NAFTA doublespeak will continue until the voters bring it to an end soon.

Does Hillary think the American can't see through her game? Every time she gets busted (and the list is getting bigger by the day) she try’s to point her finger at Obama and say 'What about him???' I am so disgusted with her poor tactics of trying to avoid facing her screw up's!

The democrat situation right now is grave. The party is broken. If Obama wins the Clinton camp will foot stamp and say the election was stolen from her like the Gore/Bush incident. If Clinton wins people will say that Obama got ripped off. Either way it goes it will cast doubt. Unfortunately with the Clinton camp she will buy, steal, and lie to get votes making people wonder what has happened to their party. While she spouts urban legends and belittles her opponent; John McCain is working on being the next president. It is truly a shame that the American people will NEVER get the straight story and doubt will be forever cast on the democratic side of this election thoughout history.

What amazes me is that Penn was allowed to remain part of the campaign, even though he allegedly resigned. But then again, he has been allowed to be Chief Strategist all these months, when it is clear that he represents almost everything Hillary Clinton claims she is against.

Obama's advisor who calls Hillary a "monster" (and immediately attempts to retract the statement) is gone within 24 hours. Hillary's chief strategist continues his professional relationship with Blackwater, Colombia, etc., and he's still around, stripped of his title, but still around.

To borrow words from Slick Willie, "Give me a Break."

"Last point… George Bush had very little political experience before he became president… look at the mess we are in and he surrounded himself with smart people… my question to all of you is have we not learned from our mistakes???"

Well, thank goodness that GWB had such smart, competent people surrounding him when Hurricane Katrina hit. Otherwise, it could have gotten *really* messy . . .

Oh. Nevermind.

First of all, regardless of what anyone says the Ohio story about the woman is not true…..My husband is an ER doctor and I am a nurse and we CANNOT refuse treatment to anyone in the ER because they can't pay some fee………It is agaisnt the law!, we cannot release anyone from the ER without stablizing them because they cant pay. That makes no sense. We dont even ask about payments in the ER, we send them a bill unless they give us there insurance information, which is something that is asked on the forms if they are able to fill them out at check in. If someone comes in dying the last thing we are asking is about money, we have to stablize them regardless…….SO IT IS A LIE for all you who know nothing about working in a hospital….Get off the bandwagon and do your own researching. The aunt of this women is a LIE and she is only trying to get her 5 minutes of fame! And that my friend is A CRYING SHAME!

Just because we're un-electable, we are still going to run with Nader on the ticket. You can't stop us America. So screw off...

Hillary and Nader 2008.

How can you not know that your top stratagist is dealing with Columbia?If she was president(Heaven forbid) would she know what members of her cabinet were up to.This is far more serious than the Canadian incident that she used against Obama to win Ohio and tie Texas.People of Pa really need to think about this.

Mark Penn & his firm is STILL working for Clinton.
The only thing that changed is his title. He will continue & indeed is continuing (as evidenced in his presence on a campaign conferrence call yesterday even after his "resignation" was announced).
If anyone for one minute believes Penn hadn't informed the Clinton campaign of his role in lobbying for Columbia when he had a much larger financial stake in their campaign they're blind (which we know for sure @ least 28% of all People are).
Same old Washington politics is NOT what we need & this is simply more proof of what we'll get w/ Clinton in the Whitehouse...
The MSM owes US transparency on this story & it deserves accurate headlines that show Penn is STILL WORKING FOR THE CLINTON CAMPAIGN!!!

OMG this is like watching Britney at the VMA's...Can she get anymore pathetic? The guy isnt even gone! He is still on the conference calls! She really is Bush in a pants suit...how can you Clinton supporters not see it? Either her loyalty boarders on total ignorance or Penn is blackmailing them!!!

I'm Canadian – this is just ridiculous. It was national news here that the Conservatives made the Goolsbee memo 5 days after his visit and misrepresented him, and was reported by the CBC later that it was Clintons staff who called Canada that started the whole NAFTAgate issue.

Does she really want to bring this up again, when the facts show her in the wrong? is she crazy? Her trying to use NAFTagate is as dumb as trying to talk about Tuzla again.

What action did Hilary take?? I thought the spin was her chief strategist "voluntarily stepped down" AND the Clinton campaign indicated he would still be guiding campaing strategy as a consultant. More smoke and mirrors. If she was truly serious about taking "definitive action," she should have FIRED this guy who was TAKING MONEY to promote a position in oppostion to her publicly stated policy and removed him from her campaign entirely. How could she not know this guy was a paid lobbyist for the Columbians?

Hey CNN, don't you agree that you like to post more anti-hillary comments than pro-Hillary. I was your #1 fan, and now I go home and watch movies or some other channels. I am so Over with you CNN. Please show some courage and post this on ok?

Dealt with it definitively?? He still works for you!

Sugar ~n~ Spice April 8th, 2008 9:55 am ET

I am glad she got rid of him!!! He was killing her slowly. I will continue to support you Hillary.
--------------------------------

She is still clinging to Mark Penn ! She did NOT get rid of him, you know that ? Read the whole story about what she is 'doing' with him – all smoke and mirrors.

Well done Hillary, you needed to lose that fat load. Obviously his strategy was not working well; as someone as unqualified, unpatriotic, and as weak as Obama could take the lead.

WAKE UP AMERICA! DIDN’T YOU VOTE FOR AN EMPTY SUIT LAST TIME??

How quickly you forget…

BUT Mark Penn is still an advisor in Clinton's campaign. Ok..so Penn doesn't have the title of top advisor...but he is still an advisor and plays a roll in her campaign.

too late, dingbat. we know how you worked it for the NAFTA deal for Bill. no reason for you to not like the Colombia deal. you'll say anything to get elected but your actions tell the true story, you globalist.

Go Hillary!!!! We know that you know what you are doing. I hope you will win this election, else I have to vote for McCain!! I really don't think Obama knows what he is doing and will be a puppet at Washintong! I hope it is you, the next president. Else I have to make sure McCain wins, atleast I know he loves our county even though I don't agree with most of his views.

That's right Hil, take the pressure off of yourself by pointing the finger right at Obama. What a 5-year-old!
I'm voting for Nadar!

Again, the Clinton campaign spins and spins, know what happens when one spins too much, you get stuck! Just as usual, when the negative truth comes face to face with you, throw the attention to someone else. These people need to start their own party, the Diversion Party! Gawd, who stupid do they think we Americans are!?

The bottomline is ALL of the candidates have lobbyists working for them… that means OBAMA as well… they work on the campaign while working their real jobs... when Obama makes cracks about not taking money from an Oil Company (which no candidate can do) or lobbyists… he is stretching the truth…

Obama did not meet with Canada his advisor did in Chicago... very well known here but I guess a lot of you don't get that... Clinton never met with anyone and nothing can be confirmed other than hearsay that was put out by Obama's camp... NBC, CNN, etc... all looked into this situation and got it pretty accurate...

Obama is no different from any of the other candidates… Start looking at the issues and facts… stop looking for reasons to not like either candidate… If you look at their track record… Obama voted the same way Clinton did in the Senate… In IL he really did not do much except vote over 150 times as present… the good thing about this primary is that all of you are starting to see how little experience Obama has…

Another thing... Obama has won a lot of states that will not vote Democratic in the General... His claim that he can get Republicans to vote for him is a stretch just like McCain thinking he can get some Democrats... I find it hard to believe that Obama and some of you think that some of the states that have voted Republican for over 40 years are going to go to him... Obama's problem is that he can not carry the Democratic base... McCain is having the same problem that is why it is statistical tie... once McCain gets the conservative base he will be ahead of Obama and the Republicans are wanting Obama to win... he is the easier candidate to beat!!!

Last point... George Bush had very little political experience before he became president... look at the mess we are in and he surrounded himself with smart people... my question to all of you is have we not learned from our mistakes???

I have never seen this woman own up to anything! Amazing!

First of all, Mark Penn can't damage her campaign anymore that she already has with all of her lies!

Mark Penn admitted speaking with the Columbian government, it's not a made up story. If anyone really believes that Hillary didn't know that this was happening, then they need to question the choices she has made for her campaign staff. She must have checked their credentials just liked she checked the facts of the Ohio hospital story!

What actions has she taken?? He's still actively involved in her campaign.

It wasn't Obama's advisers that spoke with the Canadian government regarding NAFTA, it was Hillary's, just check out youtube for some interesting videos.

Hillary, before you open your mouth, check the facts! You have lied so much, that no one will ever believe another thing you say.

I hope the states that have upcoming primaries open their eyes, and see through the Clinton smoke-screen.

also, with divisions like these between the camps. obama better start kissing the b*tts of hillary supporters if he gets the nomination, because we dont believe in him or his demi-god bs. period!

I agree with you PJ, They call these voters educated ????

Trashy is a better word.

These are some of the must-have traits that a person should possess to be a good leader.

1) Good communication skills (check for both Hillary and Obama)
2) Honesty (check Obama)
3) Visionary Outlook (okay, both Obama and Hillary)
4)Selecting a good team (check Obama)
5)Action speaks louder than words (check Hillary)
6)Ability to motivate people (check Obama)
7)Consistency (check Obama)
8)Ability to stand against critics(check Obama and Hillary)

Obama wins this round 7-4.

How anyone could think that Sen Clinton will not be trounced by Sen McCain beats me. The woman comes from a planet where honesty and integrity were obviously in very short supply.

AJ, Obama isn't going to be able to clinch the nomination. Hillary has more super-delegates for her so far. I think that Hillary has just as much chance to win this as Obama. So all of the Obama supporters that wake up from this fantasy of angels singing in the heavens, please donate and/or volunteer to the Clinton campaign.

Penn does speak for her, Bill doesn't speak for her, she herself misspoke; so who should we beleive then? who should speak for her?

She hired a guy and now pretend she doesn't know who else this guy is advising? on other hand asking Obama to fire someone who didn't even commit any sin.

Get a life and let McCain and Obama fight it out for the Whitehouse to restore US image around the world.

Otherwise, you are going to extend "W" 8 years of lies for an other term, which will be disasterous for the US.

At some point, us Democrats will have to make amends and vote for either Obama or Clinton in the general election....whomever comes out as the winner in June.

It is so sad reading these posts and knowing our party is completely divided. Espeically since, on most critical issues, Clinton and Obama are in line with eachother.

Do I wish Obama would finally secure the nomination – ABSOLUTELY. But one thing for sure...as much as I distrust Clinton and wish she was being more honest with the American people....I'd take her over McCain and another 100 years in Iraq any day!!

VOTE DEMOCRAT!!!

It already did?

She sucks. Spin it Hillary... Spin it!

very poor management of this campaign just like obama's but it's hillary or mccain in 2008 for me. obama change gig is all show and a farce.

Way to go Hillary, good job. You're such an honest person. LOL

What is Hillary kidding about Mr. Penn not be damaging to her campaign. What ever she is on I want some of that.

I think CNN needs to broadcast the truth to the Obama supporters out there that NO ONE from Clinton's campaign spoke with the Canadian govt. When that was revealed, CNN was hush hush about it that she wasn't involved. HOwever, there was proof that Obama's Austan Goolsbee did talk to the Canadian government when a memo about the contents of the conversation surfaced and Obama just siad taht the Canadians misinterpreted what Goolsbee said.

It was Obama, not Clinton. Obama supporters, get the facts straight!

and SHUT HER UP about Michigan and Florida.... The states broke the party rules and Hillary agreed to NOT count their votes (as per DNC rulings)...until she started plummeting in the polls. Hillary is dishonest and not trustworthy.

Pennsylvania voters wont be lied to like OHIO was.
Pennsylvania blue collar workers will not vote for HIl–BIL in Pennsylvania
Every day lies come out of the Clinton campaign...
How much longer do the Pennsylvania voters have to listen to her spill out garbage every day???????
Lies-lies-- lies-–
BARACK OBAMA IN PENNSYLVANIA.
PS- i JUST SAW ON A BLOG WHERE HILARY PLANTED ANTI-WAR
SUPPORTERS ON THE SENATE HEARINGS TODAY,
HOW LOW WILL SHE GO????????????

I have always liked what Gergen had to say, but not last night. I think
the facts on the Canadian Nafta deal are wrong. Wasn't Bill in Canada
two nights before the Ohio Primaries stirring thepot??Gergen needs tto admit the Clintons are skunks!!!!!!!!!

More lies and such as why is Penn in any way shape form or fashion still involved in your campaign period. The Canada thing was explained by the canadians and that it was the Clinton camp that originally set that up. Hillary will be no better for our country than Bush is now. No words that you speak can convience me as you have lied way to many times. Obama is a better man than you are a woman. You insult our inteligence and can not only accept responsibility but lie trying to cover it up and blame others for your faults and blunders. You are destroying morals and beliefs in many children around the world. You are no kind of leader I want for my children..

Obama 08

Hillary! You think you can do what ever you wish, and expect the public to ride the Clinton's wave. Heck No, I'm voting for Obama. Obama ran a better campaign then you and also managed the financial matters better. So many lies in this campaign,. NO TRUST for Hillary

Hillary never concedes anything.

Hillary has to keep Penn on her staff, cause she owes him 12 million dollars ($12,000,000) from the campaign contributions. She also has to attack Barack with old allegations to move attention away from her own staff's proven actions. What is also disturbing is her blind followers believe there really isn't any conflict of interest here. SAD

Patrick, I SO agree with you about the nasty comments from the Obama supporters. I think they are forgetting thought that a HUGE percentage of the Clinton supporters are going to be needed in order for Obama to pull it off in November. The fact is, there will be quite a few million of those Clinton supporters that will vote for McCain in the general election.

Hillary, if your idea of ready on Day ONE is getting Penn to manage your conflicts of interest- you are in REAL trouble...

Like Bush, Hillary has absolutely no grasp on reality. Every disaster within her campaign is brushed off as being unimportant. Didn't she hire these people? She has lied over and over again about her experience and then brushed off the lies after being caught.

Nothing about millionnaire Hillary (who claims to be blue collar) is true or trustworthy. She simply yaps and yaps (like Bush) as though the act of SAYING makes something true.

Hillary is NOT presidential material.

A lot of people work in political campaigns. They all have opinions that their candidate disagrees with.

I like Obama and I could work for his campaign, but I believe that we need to stay in Iraq to protect the Iraqis that worked with us and for us. If I expressed that opinion to the press, does that say anything at all about Obama's opinion on the same subject? Of course not.

I like Clinton and I could work for her campaign. I believe that the US should withdraw from NAFTA. Does that mean Clinton believes the same way? Of course not.

I used to be a Hillary supporter, although not anymore.

Honestly, her campaign reminds me of the Bush administration in many regards. People have been chosen by loyalty rather than competence. The whole campaign seems to attack the people with alternate opinions, like Richardson, as if he owes the campaign more loyalty than the American people.

She's hired the wrong people, and made enemies with the wrong people. And still, she can't admit a mistake.

When Obama's campaign has a similar incident, it's attacked. Now when it happens to Hillary, it's a non-issue. A little consistency would be nice.

i dont trust hillary and i will never will trust her

If she opens her mouth, a lie is coming forth. You can't believe anything she says. Ugh! I have had enough of her and to think I had actually considered voting for her.

If you dont think what others say around you matter to the voters and that what matters to the voters is what the candidate believes...

..Then Obviously you agree that the Voters shouldnt care about what Rev Wright says either, since all that matters is what Obama believes

..Thanks Clinton, We finnally agree on something

Once again..."not my fault."

Not being involved in Northern Ireland peace. "I was there, wasn't I? Even if I had nothing to do with the real peace accord."

Bosnia. "Gee whillakers, I forgot that we weren't under sniper fire. A mistake ANYone could make."

Nafta: "I was for it before I was against it." Worked for Kerry, didn't it?

SCHIP: "I started the SCHIP program...umm...wait...I was around when that happened too...THAT counts for something? Me being in the vecinity of things that meant something?"

The dead mother story. "Well, that's what I heard. Don't blame me, I was using a rumor to scare up votes, rather than find the time to vette one of a 1000 REAL horror stories." What, you expect me to take time from gettting ready to actually research the BS I'm slinging???

If you want a President without the character to blame himself or herself when it's obvious where fault lies...then you might as well vote for McCain–Bush has exhibited this kind of nearsightedness throughout his tenure.

God help us all if she steals this thing. It would give us McCain...or she. Different sides of the same, tired coin.

Give me great big ole' break, Hillary. You haven't taken any decisive moves on this particular mess that's become a part of your bigger mess of a campaign. As seems to be your trend, you're playing with words and misstating yourself. You haven't removed Penn from your campaign. He may not have the technical title of chief strategist, but I find it funny...no sad and typical...that you say one thing about your displeasure with him and what he's done, and yet he's still attending your campaign meetings first thing Monday morning. Doubt if his role is really changing...behind the scenes it's "business as usual," and you're hoping we'll be gullible enough to believe that it's not just because you change his title and "demote" him. We're tired of trying to figure out what's a lie and what's the truth where your campaig is concerned. Give us Democrats a break and call it a day, PLEASE! We have better things to do – like elect someone who'll really make an open, honest, positive change in our country and how others around the world view us.

Oh puleeze! Hillary has no problem and I am the tooth fairy. Same amount of accuracy.

Eric-PA watch the news please. The poster KY for Obama is correct. A very high Canadian official corrected the media and advised them it was a Clinton aide that called not an Obama aide. If you believe this is another fairy tale made up by an Obama drone then do something brave and look it up for yourself on You Tube. You will be able to see broadcasters from MSNBC (because you can't trust CNN since they are only pro-Obama) talking about the story.

Good job Hillary.

Make sure our votes are counted.

Go Hillary-stay strong-we believe in YOU.

Hillary supporters who actually believe her lies are amazing to me. You blame us Obama supporters for being so mean and ugly when in fact ALL we are doing is commenting on the very things she HAS DONE OR SAID. What a joke.

You blame the media for being mean to poor Hillary, when in fact all they are doing is reporting what comes out of her mouth and what she does. If all she says or does is negative, well it is negative press that gets reported.

It is not all about POOR HILLARY. This is the very same strategy that was put in motion right before the Texas and Ohio primaries. Believe me when I say, our allies or foreign enemies will not be saying POOR HILLARY if God forbid she were to win.

I have lost every iota of respect for Senator Clinton. Good gracious, that woman is incorrigible! What has Senator Obama got to do with Mark Penn and the Colombians? Why can't Hillary be decent for a moment. Double shame on you mud-slinging Hillary. Your plan is clear to me now "if you can't win the nomination, you'll ruin Obama's chances to be president. You'll never be president. Ever! I regret voting for you. Agghhhh!

Here she goes again,she screws up and shifts blame over to Obama .I think this is much more serious than the Canadian incident.I only hope the voters in PA see it too.

Hillary still owes Mark Penn $2.5M. This is why she has no guts to fire him for fear of being exposed.

Patrick like Hillary says, Penn doesn't speak for her, well we don't speak for Obama so stop blaming him for our remarks to her. And likewise, criticize the negative nasty comments made about Obama.
But like Hillary you see things one sided. That's why you support her I guess.

Jenn of St. Louis please!

She sat at the Board for Walmart for her clients not for herself. She's called a member when appointed by a client to attend meetings, she was a corporate lawyer for crying out loud. Try to educate yourselves instead of jumping and accusing, I thought you all are saying that Obama's supporters are bright!

Thank God Obama had not hit her with that issue. Now he has an opportunity to defend himself by hitting her with it...........LOL . Speak of shooting yourself in the foot. She has no feet left to shoot at.

In reading some of these responses, you would think their was a paid organization out there called: 'The Bad Mouthers Against Clinton". I have never read such negatives! Why is that? Are some people out there using hate only as their guide to vote by? So you don't like her as a person. That fine. Its the vileness that is amazing to read. And if she ends up winning and helps clean up the mess left behind by the previous bunch? Oh I am sure these same people will either praise her or say it was all her workers who did it.
So you didn't like your grade school teacher either. But despite that. You learned how to spell and count anyways?

There has always been a different standard applied to Hillary Clinton because of her long time public service and her private nature as a woman. S. Obma has charmed people with his message of hope and change without much to show for it because of his relatively short resume and therefore he likes to play down experience in this contest. Hillary has shown her toughness as a fighter which is judged very highly in a man but maybe not in a woman. Hillary has been unfairly judged by most people because they do not look within themselves and try to related themselves to Hillary. S. Obama lies and is forgiven or overlooked but Hillary cannot exaggerate even a little bit without being hollered and jeered.

Fellow Hope-mongers, do not take foresake the Hillary-supporters. Hillary-supporters are just upset because it is looking ever so real that Hillary will not win the nomination and Bill will not be back in the White house.

The Hillary Campaign folks are telling Hillary she can still win. Meanwhile Hillary is spending her supporters money to pay off debt and run a campaign where her chance of winning the presidency is at 15%.

To any disillusioned Hillary-supporters, there is still plenty of room on the Obama train, so please donate and/or volunteer to the Obama campaign.

Thank you Monica those were my thoughts exactly! We've already had a president that could never admit wrong or accept resonsibility we dont want another! Secondly, CANADA itself cleared the person on Obama's campaign aboutthat mix up! You have no such clearance! GROW UP!! Its hard to believe i was an ADAMANT supporter of hers....

Let me see, it matters when an Obama advisor makes an offhand comment during a tour, but it doesn't matter that her senior advisor is directly involved in negotiations. How long has she known that Mark Penn was involved in the Columbian Free Trade Agreement? Also, some of her advisors talked with Canadian Government officials before the Obama advisor did. Yes Hillary, it goes directly to your creditability, or should I say lack of. This should matter to the voters in Pennsylvania who have lost jobs. Wake up Democrats!

Why is it everything she gets caught in, she has to turn it around and blame Obama for something.

Take the heat, say yes we had a problem, we took care of it end of story.

No she has to point the finger at what about Obama. Lady stand up and be accountable on your terms not what someone else did or didn't do.

That is what a REAL President does on day 1, take accountablility. Geeze this is like George Bush all over again.

The Obama/NAFTA/Canadian issue was always true and you people refused to accept it! They were so good in downplaying the whole thing, his advisers were so good in "acting" as if it never happened.

Senator Clinton as usual tries to focus on the opposition and not realley address any situation. When she does talk about herself and her experiences, she then claims memeory lapses when proven to be not truthful. Not a good person to lead a country.

Some people’s fascination with and support of Hilary Clinton, despite all her lies and “mis-spoke” incidents is quite mystifying, bordering on blind acceptance. This is not about gender or some media conspiracy as some people try to make it out to be, but rather, it is about trust and credibility, and the scarcity of truth in Hilary’s statements. I do not wish anyone, including my children, to live under the presidency of someone whose entire presidential campaign is based on the distortion of the facts and sheer deception of the public.

She points fingers everywhere but at herself, and there are a few untruths in the article: namely what happened in the situation with Obama and Canada, and also Obama's stance on the revotes in FL and MI. The Democratic Party and the state legislatures could not come up with feasible plans to revote; that isn't Obama's fault. A mail in revote in Florida is against Florida law; that is not Obama's problem either. He said he will abide by the rules set for the party, end of discussion.

for being a woman, Ms. Clinton exemplifies the worst traits of the white, male-dominated, lying, swill merchant mentality of politicians... tenfold. Untrustworthy politicians transcend race, gender... etc. Disingenuous.

What is different? Penn is still a behind-the-scenes advisor. And whereas the story regarding Obama's part-time advisor was disputed – even by the Canadian government. AND it turns out the Howard Ickes is on the Board and Howard Wolfson is employed (though on leave-of-absence) of two companies that are involved with free trade with the Colombian government.

So here is the question, if Hillary is so against NAFTA, and if she has such sound judgment – then why are ANY of these people on her paid staff?

This is the corruption that is the Clintons – they expect people to just accept what they say in spite of what is real.

I have only 1 thing to say ... Gore '08

What tea are you drinking Hillary, when you claim that Penn does not speak for you? Chief strategist, and so many comments in all the news attributed to Penn. So many years of his being on Bill's and your payroll to "sell" both of you – AND HE DOES NOT SPEAK FOR YOU?? I think you should get a life and live in the real world, instead of being in fantasy-land where you can make and say anything you want, regardless of the reality.

Penn is still involved in the high level conference calls, meetings, and strategy planning for Hillary.

Other than giving Penn's position a different name, nothing changed.

cnn thanks for exposing hillary lier clinton ac360 rocks in europe

America beware...Hillary is a disaster ! She blames everyone but herself for her own misgivings!

You know i sort of understand how Bill misbehaves sometimes..this woman is something else ....Bill probably has gone through hell being the spouse,probably why he has all these affairs!

The lady was right ..she is a monster ...she cant obiviously form a team to lead this country well....

Hillary is just bad news!!

For all you Hillary supporters ..look hard and well, she is not a good person...her husband is a good person..one can easily tell when you meet him...But look what she makes him do....

I shudder at the thought of Hillary being the leader of the free world ..we will all be her slaves!!

please America think hard and deep !!-

Clinton, please go away. We don't want you nor need your lies.

Go Away. Any woman not this one. PLEASE GO AWAY

Can't....tell...the...truth! Lying....too....easy.....

I'm going obama 08, but I'm not sure I'll be able to vote for him if he chooses Hillary as his Veep.

"....but Mr. Obama's representative told the Canadian government basically not to pay any attention to what Senator Obama was saying about NAFTA."

Uh, correction: that was YOUR campaign spokesperson. How stupid do you think Americans are????

Enough with all the people who believe Obama is the answer to our nation's woes. This is not a likeability contest. We have serious economic issues and hope is not going to solve it. What we need is someone (a fighter) that is willing to take tough position to help push us through the current downturn in our ecomony. I do not see that in Obama, but I do in HRC. Let me remind all that it is global ecomony we are dealing with now and a feel good person is not going to cut it.

As I see it, most Obama supporter have not experience real ecomony issues like we are going through now and thus lack good understanding of our current crisis. They are still calling home for Mom and Dad to send money for their pizza and weekend beer. You have to show your respect and appreciation for what the Clintons have done for this country. Clinton's fiscal responsibility led to a balance budget and surplus, which benefited all. That is exactly what we need now to get us out of the jam Bush have put us in. Stop the personal attacks on the Clintons, it is getting old.

Its this kind of stuff from her that infuriates me! I don't know how she can even look herself in the mirrow each day. She is blatantly lying to the American Public right to all of our faces about Obama's advisor giving Canada the wink, wink. The Canadian Government publicly denounced that it ever happened and suggested it was Clinton's campaign that gave them the wink, wink about NAFTA. She is such a liar I can't stand it. What makes me so angry is that she takes ALL OF US FOR FOOLS! And unfortunately, there are a few "hangers-on" who still beleive the bile and misinformation she sspreads every day. Don't believe her folks!! I'm glad a lot of people are really starting to see her for what she really is........

Mark Penn isn’t the only Hillary Rodham Clinton supporter on the wrong side of the Colombia trade agreement.

The Democratic-leaning advocacy firm the Glover Park Group, former home to Clinton campaign spokesman Howard Wolfson, signed a $40,000 per month contract with the government of Colombia in April of 2007 to promote the very agreement that Clinton now rails against on the presidential campaign trail.

of course it's not damaging. nothing HRC does is wrong. it's ALWAYS other people that mess things up.

true to form hillary!!!

OBAMA 2008

Hillary can not see that the party doesn't want her. It is hard for her to believe that she is actually losing. It is so much harder for the favorite to accept defeat. I don't feel for her though, she knows she is riding dirty.

What a liar. The NAFTA story was thoroughly debunked. Nice try, but having your campaign's head honcho (Mark Penn) getting paid to work both for you and against you is pretty hard to ignore. Of course, union/working people would be crazy to support HRC anyway, considering that she sat on Wal-Mart's Board of Directors for many union-busting years.

Hillary, Hillary, Hillary,...Is being true to form every time she or hers are caught she is quick include Obama into the mix. When will she accept responsibility for her own actions and quit trying change the focus? Own it and move on....

I've noticed by the comments on this website that Obama's supporters are the most vicious and hateful, by far, of any of the candidate's supports. Some of their comments about Hillary are downright chilling. I could never imagine talking about another human being like that–and from supporters of a candidate that is supposedly all about hope, change, and unity! If I hear the word "transcends" one more time I'll vomit. . . . just words.

There she goes again, saying she's always doing something better, quicker, etc. than Obama. This woman is so extremely divisive. I think people across the country see right through her empty rhetoric and lies more and more each day.

Paraphrasing the wicked witch (Wizard of OZ): "Be gone Hillary, before I drop a house on you!"

I cannot understand why people are still believing a single word Hillary says! She has proven over and over and over that she will do anything, say anything as long as the vote is in her favor. I DO NOT TRUST HER to take care of this country. With as much of a hidden agenda she has had with her campaign, this is definitely not the type of leader we need.

She says something, then is called out on it, then changes her story, then moves on to another deceit, then is called out on it, then changes her story, then moves on to another deceit...etc.

Joyce in Florida – traits like "arrogance" or wanting to have things handed to him "on a platter" have nothing to do with how he'd be as president. Those are your personal opinions. One of the criteria I go by is how his campaign has been managed which is really quite well, especially compared to Clinton. He has managed his campaign money and strategies in terms of organization and outreach, brilliantly. To me, this bodes well for his skills as an administrator which one needs as president. And I truly admire his work as a community organizer, a choice he made rather than going into the big time $$$$$ law firm which was the route Clinton chose. There's no doubt that Clinton is a very, very smart woman, but her campaign management has been all over the place and her message keeps changing. I started out as a Clinton supporter but as time went on, well, I haven't found the constancy and consistency that I see in Obama (and yes, I know he's not perfect!) and I'm willing to take a chance on him. Besides which, he took the time to read the Iraq War report and had the guts to go against popular opinion to speak out against invading Iraq.
There is no way I'd vote for a Republican.

Go Hillary! If not Hillary, then Mc Cain.
Obama equals racist church, and anti American.

That is correct Hillary. NBC news contacted the Canadian government twice and they verified both times that Obama's people did contact them about NAFTA and did tell them to not worry that what Obama would be saying in the Ohio debate is just "campaign rhetoric". The Canadian news report that came out after that said Obama's people did not talk to them was a false report bought by the Obama campaign.

Hillary's ability to keep a soldier's attitude during this trying campaign is one of the many reasons I'm going to vote for her, no matter what happens. I simply can't sign my name to Obama, who I believe to be incredibly devious and underhanded, or McCain, who I view to be too pro-war for my taste. There's a website now for people who will write Hillary in if she's not the nominee. Google writehillaryin and you'll find it.

Penn is still employed by Clinton. Who is she kidding? The news should be reporting that.

Here she goes again. She knows that it will be very difficult or even impossible so now she is trying to throw Barack under the Straight Talk Express. I think she is making an attempt to soften him up and set up a democratic loss in order for her to say, " look he had his chance and he failed" so vote for me in 2012.

Hey, Get a life, Obama people! April 8th, 2008 10:06 am ET:

Do you want to know what I didn't like about the Clintons last presidency??

I didn't like that because of the lies and betrayals, they gave us a republican congress and more importantly, 8 years of the worse preseident EVER!!

For that, I cannot not forgive them!!

OBAMA 2008!!

I am an avid fan of CNN but IF YOU DO NOT GET THE STORY STRAIGHT OF CLINTONS CAMPAIGN ACTUALLY BEING THE ONES THAT SPOKE TO OUR GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS I WILL START A PETITION TO BOYCOTT YOUR NEWS CHANNELS!!!!! This story is outrageous!!!! How can you let an UNTRUE story get airtime??? Especially from a chronic LIAR like Hillary??

OBAMA 08, 12

she is just devil and lying machine. that's it.. that's she.

I think it is very important how a person runs their organization in terms of how they will run the country. You have to ask yourself, unemotionally, critically and objectively; how has her campaign run. Are her people working together as a team, does she inspire teamwork and a united front. Are they all on the same page or all they all going off in different directions. does she know what the people in her team are doing.

Ask yourself this. Is the way her campaign has been run the way you would like to see our country run.

Do you want people fighting, leaving, argueing amonst themselves, backstabbing, saying one thing and doing another.

Ask yourself does she inspire people to work with her on a united front. It is a simple question and if you take the emotion out of it...you will see a very obvious answer.

She has the man responsible for her entire campaign....going off...while he is running her entire campaign....to support something she supposedly does not want.....would this sort of thing work is he were part of her cabinet. This is the sort of helper she collects...the sort of inspiration and loyalty she garners. How will that work for us if she were running or country. she cannot run her family and she cannot run her campaign....why would you give her our country.

"Clinton says Penn controversy won’t be damaging"

When you wish upon a star...........

INVEST IN AMERICA, NOT IRAQ (OR COLUMBIA)

How does Hillary's campaign represent? Did Penn's business interests overshadow those of the Clintons' campaign. Lies, lies, lies – all the way from "I did not have sexual relations with that woman..." to NAFTA. Patriots place the interests of their country and citizens FIRST.

The Clinton dynasty, just like the Bush dynasty, have sold out their country along with the needs and expectations of Americans who believe in America, for their own stupid and precious new world order.

The Clinton dynasty must end before it begins. If Obama gets the nomination he gets my vote, if Hillary gets the nomination, McCain gets my vote, and if it's McCain, my reason is simple – I am willing to sacrifice 4 more years with another idiot in hopes that Americans may wake up.

My only hope is that we do not wake up to find our country the newest Third World Nation.

you were 4 nafta lady...you only care about yo self

repub: for OBAMA

.
it is true that Obama's representative told the Canadian government basically not to pay any attention to what Obama was saying about NAFTA. the Canadian government has confirm that.

Obama is phony.

interesting note:
Current ticker items for Clinton-7
Obama-0
Obama & Clinton-1

She didn't take any action. He's still working for her. She's done nothing but lie and coverup since the beginning of her campaign. You have to wonder what promises she's made and to who, and you sure can't believe anything she says.
She's in a state of denial if she thinks the things that have happened in the past few weeks aren't going to hurt her.
NAFTA – Clinton, Hospital story – Clinton, Bosnia – Clinton, Penn – Clinton. How many more things will come out that you've lied about???

Sen Obama has nothing to with her top advisor's meeting with the Colombian government ,reiterating her opposition to a free trade agreement with the Colombians. Go Obama

I can't beleive this.Billary just lies about everything and and tries to throw dust on Obama.I think we have enough......?? Shame on you Hillary.....

Obama 08.........

de·lu·sional

1. The act or process of deluding.

2. The state of being deluded.

2. A false belief or opinion: labored under the delusion that success was at hand.

3. Psychiatry A false belief strongly held in spite of invalidating evidence, especially as a symptom of mental illness: delusions of persecution.

To so many Hillary supporters: Please STOP YELLING AT US IN CAPITAL LETTERS! What's up with that? I guess you are mighty defensive...with good reason, I'd say.

Obama '08

Don't people for Obama have anything better to do than sit on the computer all day and post negative remarks about Hillary? Get a job.

Poor excuse Madam Clinton. Obama had no knowledge of his advisor's meeting when he was first asked about it. That was why he denied it. That was genuine on his part. You were also accused of talking to the Canadians too. Mr Penn's meeting with the Colombians is proof that you want the NAFTA countries to "Take it with a grain of Salt"

So it is crap talk to say that you handled it better than Obama. The fact is that Mr Penn exposed you, and that is what that matters to the voters. What goes around comes around – Wink Wink

Hilllary did NOTHING to "solve " this problem. She just changed the guys title and it is business as usual. He was on the daily call as always. Who does she think she is fooling? She can't fire him. I will bet she is in so deep into the columbia deal she has no where else to go. As a senator no one investigated her. With all of this coming out about her I will be surprised if she keeps her job in New York. Those New Yorkers don't forget.

Stephen, there is a lot of news and other documentation including the First Lady schedules, that detail Ms. Clinton's support of NAFTA at it's onset. While she is in a campaign now where NAFTA is very unpopular, the fact remains that she overwhelmingly supported it during her husband's administration and campaigned FOR it. Now with her campaign advisor heavily involved in the Columbian Free Trade agreement, I find it hard to believe he was there with no prior knowledge. I more believe that this is spin cast out by the Clinton's now that Penn's involvement was sited. He has been in the Clinton fold personally and professionally since their days in the White House – I find it hard to believe the were surprised. In addition, she did not fire him – Penn is still in the campaign. Not firing him completely will be a big campaign issue, I'm sure.

This is just another misstatment which can be added to an increasingly long list for Ms. Clinton.

Walt: "if he was still the bribe disposal unit" Thanks for giving us all a laugh in these days when there is so much stress.

Dan: I think you are very close to the truth! I think it should be changed a little bit, just substitute these words "her very real universe of greed"

Carolyn: "Facts are Facts" no one need spin anything!

Realistic: I understand to a certain extent why women back Hillary,.
I am however, concerned about the older generation (geezers) backing her.

This raises a serious question for me. Could it be that these same geezers grew up in those days when the black sanition workers had to ride with the garbage in the trucks even at the cost of their lives? Do you think these people still have this mind set today?

What makes her think this wont affect her in the next primaries? It affected Obama in Ohio, hugely. I think she is leaving in denial. It remains to be seen. Her stance on Michigan and Florida tells me something, this woman actually believes this presidency thing is her birthright. Can somebody please stop her before she wrecks this party and cost the democrats their shot at the whitehouse come nov!

...and ANOTHER Clinton lie. Obama did not oppose a revote. What a sleazeball.

At the end, Hillary will only have those Wig wearing African American Politically sleep women supporting her. Oh, I forgot, The Clintons Purchased the entire Black Civil Right Leaders and the most of the Black Church Leaders. Those Moors will never wake up.

The bottomline is ALL of the candidates have lobbyists working for them... that means OBAMA as well... when he makes cracks about not taking money from an Oil Company (which no candidate can do) or lobbyists... he is stretching the truth...

Obama is no different from any of the other candidates... he got in with some shady Chicago politicians and backers... he took their money just like every politician does to run for office... Clinton and McCain have more years in the game so of course they may have some shady people in their past... they all do!!!

Start looking at the issues and facts... stop looking for reasons to not like either candidate... If you look at their track record... Obama voted the same way Clinton did in the Senate... In IL he really did not do much except vote over 150 times as present... the good thing about this primary all of you are starting to see how little experience Obama has... Bush had very little political experience!!!

How appropriate that the most fundamentaly DISHONEST candidate in US history says they've fired a guy when he's still working for them behind the scenes.

How many lies can one woman tell? Let's get this charade of a campaign behind us and let the real candidate – Obama – take on McCain. Obama isn't a patelogical liar tied to lobbyists and corruption at his core.

Obama '08

Uh, Hillary, he's not gone and is still doing work for you. How stupid do you think we are? Oh, that's right, we're supposed to believe you did not lie (several times) about Bosnia sniper fire but simply misspoke SEVERAL TIMES. Sell that snake oil to somone else.

Lying mother running for office. Some people call you monster because of all this double speak and mistrust....the more young people and truthful, honest Americans listen to you the more the hate you more....that troubling for the democratic party....

I know how important is it too vot Dem no matter what, but at this point I trust Mccain more that I trust Hillary! I do not want her in the White house AT ALL! I won't vote for someone that I don't trust! I WILL NEVER VOTE FOR HILLARY CLINTON!

Good grief, people. What an absurd diatribe, this morning.

Hillary for President!

Sure Hillary lets take the attention off of you once again. Even when the Obama controversy was going on both Canada and his campaign said the information that was leaked out to the public was false. And I still believe it was a lie leaked out by the Clinton campaign before the Texas and Ohio primaries. Clinton cannot deny her ties to NAFTA !

Clinton didn't really get rid of Penn. They just changed the name of his job. A host of Clinton supporters and their companies support the trade deal. Wolfson's company is working for the Columbians too. You think Clinton would have some clout with them if she really wanted to stop the trade deal. I don't think she does.

Give it up Hillary. We know now Bill was cheerleading with Columbia on the deal, that is why your top people including the lobbying groups of Harold Ickes, Howard Wolfson and Mark I need a haircut Penn, where included in the deal. You set back the womens movement 100 years by your bickering and wineing. GIVE IT UP!

Nafta was the CLintons baby. This just shows that they are still rocking it and kissing it to bed every night.

I've just done a tally of how many remarks on this blog are anti-Hillary and how many are pro. Wow, it has been a long time since I have seen anyone as disliked as she is! Thankfully, the American public is opening its eyes.

Obama '08

If this is how she runs her campaign do we want to let her run our country??? She acts like she got rid of Penn but he is still a part of her campaign and still lobbying for Columbian NAFTA. I don't hate Mrs Clinton in fact I have a great deal of respect for her but this is hard to swallow. Please stop trying to shift attention away from your campaigns lack of leadership. Obama didn't hire and stand by Penn you did Mrs Clinton. When will you take any responsibility for your crumbling campaigns missteps and stop trying to shift focus away from you.

Another lie from a habitual liar. Someone whose work on the Watergate Hearings did not earn her a letter of recommendation because of her ethical shortcomings. Someone who lies about her trip to Bosnia (three times) then chalks it up to lack of sleep. Someone who lies about NAFTA. Someone who lies about her vote in the Senate. Someone who lies about firing Mark Penn (he is not fired, go read it on MSNBC – there was actually someone on the conference call where he stays in the same role just a change of title). She lies. She lies. She lie.

And SHAME ON YOU CNN for perpetuating her lies, and having your people add to it.

This woman is losing it! someone please, come to her rescue. she is delusional. I cannot believe how low she wants to come with lies to get this nomination. I cannot believe!!

WOW is she in denial or just full of crap........

She has not even fired this guy does she expect people to believe she did not know what he was doing or had not consulted her.

Do us all a favour and step down all the lies and blaiming other people is bad for the party.

OBAMA YES WE CAN

No matter what happens, Hillary can't just take the blame for what happens in her campaign. Again, she goes back to Senator Obama and quickly tries to turn the tables and focus on what he has or has not done. This is so typical of the Clinton's and the old school political machine and how it works. Please, Hillary, just take responsibility for yourself

HILLARY'S CAMPAIGN IS ALREADY DAMAGED BEYOND REPAIR; I DOUBT MARK PENN HAD AS MUCH INFLUENCE ON HER CAMPAIGN AS ONE MIGHT PRESUME. HILLARY IS HER OWN BOSS, WITH BILL ABETTING WHEN POSSIBLE.

What bothers me most about Hillary Clinton is that each and every time she is held accountable for something, she ALWAYS brings in Senator Obama's name. She makes comments like, "in both of our campaigns...."...."both our surrogates" ...."we both have supporters"
..."we both misspeak:....Can't she "Man Up" and face the music on her own when she makes a mistake? She continues her devious ways even when supposedly apologizing. "I'm sorry, but he did it, too!" That is soooo irritating and irresponsible. Always trying to shift the focus to someone else. And-whomever made the comment that Candy Crowley is biased, is right. She manages to bring someone else's name in too when Clinton has botched something. Is she on the Clinton payroll, too? If so, in this case, Clinton deserves a refund.

What you people are forgetting is that both Obama and Hillary have been caught in lies about NAFTA. It was the Canadian government that exposed Obama so what an aide says is meaningless. It did happen and Obama just gave a big a lie as ole Hillary who is nothing but a chronic liar.

Get real people, the democrats are trying to get an amateur elected as president. Neither one of them is prepared for anything.+

Oh PLEASE !

Just stop it now.....anybody that believes her mess, well I just got to say, that I have a bridge that I can sell you!

Her campaign is messed up all the way around the block, look to the future and how she would run a White House.

Middle aged white lady, middle income, middle america

Obama 08!

Eric in PA google the NAFTA scam. You'll see it was the CLINTON people who did that. You in NW PA. Don't have the internet? Wake-up, they did it to fool the Ohio people who are cousins of NW PA. They'll try something to get the other cousins in W. VA. HillBilly loves to trick the real hillbillies.

"unlike Mr. Penn who was not representing the campaign"

No, Hillary, he was representing the Columbian government. AND working for you. You may not see a problem there, but voters in the upcoming elections most definitely will. Will you now claim that you didn't know that Penn was working for the Columbians?

How many times are you going to SHOOT yourself in the foot?

Sen. Clinton, with all due respect your recent comment just shows how "out of touch" you are with regards to your own campaign downfall. YOUR campaign message is NOT working and it's issues like the Mr. Penn fiasco that is digging YOU deeper into the sinking sand.

Your recent statement is nothing more than a bunch of CRAP! YOUR credibility and trustworthy credentials are seriously damaged beyond repair. Americans just DON'T trust you anymore, and your husband Bill too. It's a self-destruction you both have caused on yourselves.

The Penn issue continues to be a serious liability and he should have had his arse FIRED a year ago!!! Bottom line, this man is BAD NEWS and clearly reflects on YOUR campaign BIG TIME. This is also the same strategist that advised YOU not to focus on the primary caucuses... BIG MISTAKE!!!

It's funny how you continue to MAKE excuses for this man by allowing to remain on as an polling advisor. What? Are you insane?

The fact that you continue to employ this man as an policy advisor speaks to your credibility and judgment issues. It also PROVES that you, Sen. Clinton are VERY MUCH informed on what is going on in your campaign, despite your claim that "you didn't know or you weren't aware, or you misspoke, etc.". I find it very hard to believe that everything YOU do is NOT pre-calculated to the last detail, the fact is your man Penn got CAUGHT. Just like YOU got caught with your lies and blunders over and over. It's NOT that you are sorry or regretful, it's about YOUR GETTING CAUGHT!! Bottom line.

This latest stunt is nothing more than a deep in denial, and keeping Penn anywhere on your campaign staff is just downright ignorant.

He's pulling YOU down and you continue to allow him to do so. When you allow a staff member to impact your presidential campaign in a negative and dishonest manner, they should be fired immediately.

By allowing Mr. Penn to continue on as an "advisor" is mind-boggling. I guess YOU just don't learn from your repeated mistakes. So whatever happens with Mr. Penn or with any other staffer from this point on will truly be on ON YOUR HEAD Sen. Clinton!!

The fact that you keep blaming everyone else but yourself is getting very old and transparent. YOU continue to change your campaign messages (by copying what other people DO, bowling, "yes will will" slogan, etc.) that it NO longer matters to most Americans, they NO LONGER TRUST YOU!

Bottom line.

Hillary has Obama for "damage control" when things go bad.
Hillary = Pinocchio
Bill = same thing. "I didn't inhale". "I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Ms. Lewinsky"...
wow, they are both made for each other.
Hey Hill, watch out for the snipers!...naw, just kidding – I misspoke.

People who are referring to a media bias against Hillary need to get over it. They are not making her look bad, she is doing it HERSELF! Please wake up and see that she has become as good at spin and lies as our current administration. You want more of that? You do if you are supporting Hillary. More of the same...more BUSH spin and LIES.

Was she "Sleep Deprived" when she made this statement too?

Come on already... Enough with the lies and deceit.

Just drop out now Hillary!

OBAMA '08

CNN good going you ask Clinton herself if Penns dealing with Columbia will hurt her campaign .CNN you should go after Clinton not let her get away with this nor Penn who is still according to Maggie Williams consulting her campaign .
If one resigns then how come he is allowed to still consult the Clinton campaign?
Clinton is lying ,just like her connection with the Canadian Government that her campaign denied ever happened.
We do not need a Liar in Washington .
I do not trust liars but I will vote for Change and that means Senator Barack Obama .
Obama All The Way 08

A willing suspension of all disbelief.

This woman could put a spin on the Rock of Gibraltar.

Phil

After reviewing Sen. Hillary Lying Can Trust Clinton, continue to reply wit n more lies. John Robert's ask her directly why is she still paying Penn, who she kept on her staff she injected sen. Obama in the conversation because she did not want to say she agrees with Penn on the Columbian Trade Deal.

America, view this audio she lies as well as Bill Clinton lies.

She keep playing the role of the victim of an abusive husband who kept having affairs on her. We can not fall for her story telling lies anymore. PA must send her a message and tell her to go home.

She said "we took action". The question is what action??? Mark Penn is still working for her, poll taking, and giving advise. Also in regards to both Michigan and Florida, she was right there with everyone else saying loud and clear those primaries would not count. Now SHE wants them to. Do you think she would still be beating this drum, if Obama had been the leading vote getter, as well as the only one on the ballot in Michigan?
Anyone else sensing a pattern here? If she is ready from day one, let's hope that day never comes....

The press bias against Senator Clinton has been unmerciful.

I think it's about time hillary shuts up and stop comparing her silly moves to that of Obama. Her campaign strategy is so weak and all she depends on is other people's weakness and that's is if they have any. How many times has Obama made comments about all the lies and exagerations she has told in recent times. She is going to be another type of disaster if allowed into the white house because she is too desperate. Shame on you Billary>>>

Funny thing about Hillary: when she gets defensive, all she ever does it try to deflect blame to Obama. Obama, on the other hand, never mentions any of the things that Clinton has done wrong. Who's running the positive campaign here? And, who's winning because of it?

Hilliar!!

There is documented proof (the memo) that Obama's advisor met with the Canadians. There is no proof that any of Hillary's advisors met with Canadians.

Obama supporters should learn the facts and stop believing hear say

Thats right Hillary we are ALL HillaZombies and we cannot think for ourselves. WE WILL let you tell us day is night and fire is cold and we will believe you because we are your loyal followers.

YOU WISH!

What is so sad there are still people who DO think that way about her.

Everyone person on has stated my views on the queen....shut up and leave the race. You are a joke at my work now, just a joke. OBAMA all the way in 08

As a Canadian proud of his heritage and a long time admirer of the United States I must confess my absolute dismay at the complete decline of the US as a bona fide superpower and the impact on the rest of us in the world. You no longer dominate economically,you cannot project enough combat power to reinforce Afghanistan where Canadian troops are dying in the worst hotspot there. My respect for the American people is waning. The issues I have just described are the result of failed leadership. Now you have potentially a leader who reminds me of our greatest Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau. Are the American people entirely stupid? After 8 years of secretive government and disastrous foreign policy and domestic disasters the American people are looking at Hilary Clinton as potentially the next president when she represents even more secrecy and dishonesty than Bush. Barack Obama could make ahuge difference. Clinton represents a further decline . She is completely unprincipled and given a choice would rather entirely destroy the democratic party than lose. What has happened to you people?

So Eric I guest they didn't dwell on the Jeremiah Wright story. What palnet are you on. Just face it Hillary is a LIAR.

I don't understand this- everytime Billary get into something- they try to bring Obama into it? Why isn't the Clintons Pastor being talked about? I guess him liking little children isn't an issue.

There is a big difference in what Penn did...he was making a deal with columbia two days before Bush proposes a plan to open up trade there. It reeks of insider information. And we're supposed to believe Clinton knew nothing about it. Ha Ha

Huh? Penn was NOT representing the campaign? He was the top strategist. Accepting money from the Columbian government to promote NAFTA in Congress and simultaneously representing a presidential candidate that is AGAINST it IS a conflict of interests.

I don't believe the spokesperson for the Obama campaign is making millions of dollars lobbying for the Columbian government.

Wow, Hillary's response just turned me off. It was childish and catty. She is showing why she is not mentally fit to be commander-in-chief. I would love for a woman to be president, but in order to get respect, she have to have a demeanor that demands respect. Hillary is smart but she holds herself back from being a decent human being.

Yes to a woman for President!
No to Hillary!

Obama supporters:

You need to get a clue... his advisor met with Canada... the media actually spun that story to make it sound worse than what it was... Canada does not want anything to do with this and tried to down play the meeting... damage all ready done!!!

Clinton's advisor did not meet or talk to the Canadian official... that story was from third hand information overheard outside a restaurant... Canadian News quickly corrected that story... once again they want nothing to do with this... CNN does not have to correct anything... they actually got that right!!!

All I know is that everyone can obviously read the same story and come out with a different take... the blogs prove that... Obama and Clinton supporters prove that... this stuff needs to stop... you need to get the facts before making some of your statements!!!

What is wrong with this woman??? She doesn't even know what is happening in her own campaign so how is she going to know enough to lead this country. I wish Obama had dealt with the Canada snafu more forcefully. He should have corrected that lying shrew and advised her that it was HER OWN CAMPAIGN that called Canada and told them to "take it with a grain of salt." Really are 1/2 of the Democrats so scared that they will continue to support this ridiculous excuse for a candidate?

Another LIE! It was HER people who told the Canadian people that, and that has been documented. Bill is very friendly with them, and was seen talking to them at that time.

This woman is shameless and it is now becoming SCARY to think that she could be the leader of the United States!

She needs to be called on this. I'm beginning to wonder if anything she says is the truth!

Of course this controversy won't affect the campaign–none of her controversies seem to. Besides, Penn went into this knowing he could likely be scapegoated. Please, you're going to suggest that the Clintons didn't know fully of the intentions of his firm? Yeah right–they knew and supported it just like NAFTA. I'm not personally against free trade–but I am against someone who only says she's against it when it means winning an election. Detestable.

This incident, combined with her misrepresenting her "bullet-ridden" arrival at that airport has pushed me over to Obama. This is a pre-curser to what her years as president would be like. I'm shocked at how unorganized the management of her campaign has been.

When I was raising my children and when one of them got into trouble, if while I was questioning them about something that they did and they brought up their sister or brother name with a "what about what they did excuse" I would then give them a double punishment. If the only way you can look good is to try to make someone else look bad, that makes you look twice as bad. A woman especially a mother should be able to rise above that. This is about you HILLARY not BARACK.

Eric , you have the paper that say's that Penn was promoting CAFTA on be half of the Clinton Campaign? Wasn't it a newspaper that printed the story about the great Wink, Wink which they had proof that Obama's economic adviser did meet with Canadian officials in Chicago and even had proof of the contents of the meeting. Does Obama camp have proof that it was Hillary or someone in her camp that met and said such things of this nature? This is just another spin of the truth that Obama-bots have always been able to do with NO proof what so ever other than there own stupid lies. Clinton's man did resign and his company is still working for the campaign not Penn himself. Obama hasn't cut ties with his own adviser let alone fire him. Hell he still loves his Preacher ( the nation hater ) . Just goes to show you who can make better choices fore the country. Lets see the proof and also the substance instead of the spin of the truth and dreams.

By the way, white female Republican here. I am voting for Obama in the Indiana primary. Only viable canadate and I don't want to wait till November to cast my vote his way.

One more time of showing us the double talk you have been famous for. Get your facts straight. No wait, then you would have nothing to say.

barack's list of lies keeps growing, and cnn doesn't report them. why dosen't cnn report on the domestic terrorist group the weather underground that bombed the pentagon, capital, and a police headquarters in the 1970's, and obama's friendship with the leader of this group. how about rezkos ties to the iraqi who was a money launderer for saddam hussein, his name was auchi. how about his church lending a sympathetic ear to hamas. how about the nation of islam followers that barack employs on the campaign, and there are several of them. obamas list of "boneheaded mistakes" is growing. he sure does like to keep company with terrorist, and hate mongers.

Voting another Clinton into office is like asking for a knife in the back. Americans are on a slippery slope. The only one that can save this country now is Obama. Anything less would be uncivilized.

OBAMA 2008

Isn't it interesting how all the comments that are negative about Hillary are always on the board but if there is a comment in her favor it doesn't show up. I have commented a numberof times and it never goes on the board. What is up with CNN
get your act together and stop being so one sided

IT'S SICKING

More importantly, Obama did not distance himself from rev Wright. I believe his statements are far more damaging to this country than the media is talking about. Big deal he gave a speech on race, words are words. He needs to take action. I would not attend a church that was spewing hatred through sermons that are anti-American. If Rev Wright is so disgusted with this country that gives us all the freedom we try and bring to the rest of the world, why doesn't he just find another country to call home. DISGUSTING

Hillary08

Also, your NAFTA claim is untrue. The Canadian government has vidicated Sen. Obama from your claim. Can you please get the facts correct!!! But then, you can't tell the truth, so why would I ask that question.

Not damaging , Huh? Penn is still on the team as a valued advisor. The fact, that Penn and Wolfson, two of Hillary Clinton's most senior campaign advisers, also work for lobbying firms that are promoting Free Trade with Colombia, with all Colombia's terrible anti-labor laws and practices, should serve as an insight into the type of corrupt and "government-as-usually", that the Hillary Clinton administration would be, if you vote her into office. Pennsylvanians are lucky to hear the news before the primary. They won't get fooled like the voters in Ohio and Texas did with Hillary's NAFTA tomfoolery.

He is still working on her campaign. This is not a "decisive" action.

Hillary has the nerve to lie to voter's about this issue when her own campaign confirmed that Penn is still on her payroll , working for her as an advisor 'behind the scenes'. She has no shame.

We are only humans. Negativity invites negativity.
Hillary has more negativity in stock so Penn's resignation is not damaging. She has got more lobbyists working for her, not for you.

Hillary should stop whining. It makes her look so desparate. She promotes self-serving ideas that ultimately hurt the Democratic Party.

If Florida and Michigan votes count, and she wins, I will vote for McCain.

Sen. Clinton.....keep it real please. In your stump speeches, you say he's gone, but in fact he is still a member of your staff, attending conference meetings on your campaigns behalf and still doing the strategic polling for your campaign. You play with words so much with less action that is why you untrusting rating is so high. You're no different that the current President that we have in office. You give women trying to be promoted in this world a bad reputation! Take lessons from the International Women Leadership 101 course.

Char,
Hillary is decisive! She is a decisive Liar!

America does not want Hillary.

Hillary go shopping for a new pantsuit and give Americans a break from you and your lies. Just sit this one out for the good of all Americans.

Obama supporters are so completely media influenced and hypnotized by Obama's campaign, that they do not even have their own minds. It is scary to me, very.
When G. Bush went with his war strike on Iraq and the American people followed him like sheep, I get the similar feeling about how they are following the Obama mob mentality.
It is impossible to say anything in this forum that is good about Clinton, and the Clinton supporters seemingly have given up trying to show you her good points. What is the use? You Obama people have made up your minds that Obama is some kind of spiritual leader. What a joke!
Obama's posturing to be what he pretends to be to the American people is a lie, and this will show itself if he is actually elected president, or while he is debating with the Republicans after being nominated. It will all come out way too late for anything to stop him from being nominated, if he is nominated, because Hillary might just be nominated instead.
I support Hillary, because in spite of her foibles, she is far the better candidate in world traveled experience, being able to back up factually what she says, and she is not a complete phony of which Obama is. She is a quality person who knows what she says. I distrust him and his motives, his history about himself, his ability to do anything new whatsoever other then be the biggest fake that any person has ever been running for president.
Recently I have found out so many more lies that Obama has told that if he is nominated that I am not sure that I will vote for him, and I have been a voting democrat all of my life. I won't vote for McCain that's for sure, but perhaps due to my own sense of ethics I won't vote at all.

I can just see and read above all the hate coming from Obama supporters. What is the matter with you people? And you want Obama to run this country? I THINK NOT. He is so arrogant and thinks everything should be handed to him on a platter. Not going to happen!! Senator Clinton is the most qualified candidate for President. I will fully support her until she becomes our nominee. You Clinton bashers out there should be ashamed. But maybe you have no conscience either. You are the ones who keep this garbage flying around. Time for Obama to concede. GO HILLARY 08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

had to believe bill cheated on her. she's such a lovely woman.

Everything that comes out of your mouth is lies and lies....that is the reason my family and i will never vote for you...

Now I understand how Hillary stayed with Bill after all his lying. Bill and Hillary are like two peas in a pod. Lying is just something they both do naturally!

In order to fire someone, you have to actually FIRE them.

Penn is still working for the campaign in the same capacity.

He was fired in name only.

Another example of Clinton "truth".

Depends on what you definition of "is" is...

If you elect Hillary, expect lots more lies like this!

Haven't we had ENOUGH already with BUSH?

Obama and McCain are both HONEST and TRUTHFUL. Either one would be a better choice for President.

For all of you who insist that the media is so biased against Hilary...let's see how they pursue the story that despite her pronouncement , Mark Penn is still very much a part of her campaign. Example, he's preping her for the debate with Obama this weekend. Given her hysterical posture regarding Obama and NAFTA, she should be nailed on this hypocriscy by every major media outlet.

How is Hillary decisive? Penn has not left her campaign. He is still there working. How dumb does she think the voters are? It is insulting.

CNN has become the open season for Hillary haters.......really pathetic....
Can't wait for PA vote and exit polls.......GO Hillary!

Oh please, give me a break !! Hillary………oh lord, this lady is a pathological liar, she needs help! By the way Penn is still a senior advisor on your campaign and still getting paid by your campaign. Hillary you are becoming a joke! Honestly I don’t know who is worst between Grandpa McCain a “Warmonger” or Rambo Hillary a serial liar.The answer to all our problems: Obama!

Our President Obama 08 & 12!

Hillary is a pathological liar and turns me off. When you poo you blame it on Obama instead of taking responsibility. This is evident that you are not ready from day one. If you can't manage a primary campaign, how in the world are you going to lead and manage from the White House? Remember the famous slogan -"shame on you Barack Obama " you unleashed on him in Ohio for no just cause is coming back to hunt you. What goes around comes around. You are a very angry women and unfit for the Oval Office. At 3:00am you will be putting your make ups and looking for Bill instead of anwering the important call. Shame on you Hillary Clinton!

Letha, Sioux Falls, SD

"I wish the Obamanation idiots could and would get the facts straight. Penn was not working for the campaign or the Clinton's at the time this took place. Read the facts idiots before you post."

Now, this is ironic. This meeting took place LAST WEEK, because BUSH, yes, BUSH, is trying to push this trade agreement with Colombia through Congress now! If you read something besides HIllary's statements, you might be better informed.

First of all The Canadian government was referring to someone in the clinton campaign not Obama . Hillary you need to getsthe facts straight and stop her lying. Second Penn is still working for you another lie when are going to stop lying. You are a habitual lier you must got for treatment before you get destroyed by you lie.

Michigan and Florida should be counted - I wonder why BO does not want them counted??

Google: obama nafta canada truth

Click on the Newsweek link.

Hillary shouldn't be let off the hook for perpetuating the lies about Obama/Canada/NAFTA when her campaign was accused of the exact same thing around the exact same time.

Both camps deny it is true about their camp. Canada says it is not true.

I try to give people the benefit of the doubt but she continually is caught lying about herself. When she lies about other people, it just further illustrates the lack of ethics and integrity.

Is there any wonder why people doubt politicians? Could she lie more if she tried?

Clinton's campaign is stocked with lobbyists hawking their agendas with their candidate. Penn is no better than Chenney, but at least Chenney resigned from his private business interests before serving in office. Penn must leave now.

Billary needs to focus on cleaning up her own messes rather than dragging Obama's in the dirt to cover her own. good grief

This is not Obama. This is about Hillary Clinton and her lies about NAFTA. She supported it. She supported Wal-Mart and sending jobs overseas. She lied to voters in Ohio. But the PA voters need to see the fault for the job loss lies with the Clintons.

Don't believe a word out of the Clintons mouths. Their history should have taught the voters this. They want a third term for Bill. They want to make more money from their investors and business interests. Not this time Hillary.

Hillary put this in its correct perspective. There's a double standard in the press or media. The contrast between this flap and that of the Obama Nafta flap is glaring.
Hillary's stand on the Colombia trade is clear and consistent. And there's no issue here of judgment. She handled the matter correctly and timely, even though Mr. Penn represented his PR firm in the meeting and not that of the campaign. In effect, she clearly articulated what her stand is.
Obama's adviser clearly represented his campaign and their meeting talked about his campaign and Mr. Obama didn't take any action than denying, at first, the meeting took place.
I'm looking for CNN and the media to contrast the 2 events and inform the voters.

I think it rather funny, Penn did not represent Clinton, but Obama's
advisor represented Obama with Canada, nothing was done with
him.

Stop the bias against Clinton

HILLARY IS GOING TO WIN.

C'mon! ENOUGH ALREADY Hillary! You have shown that you can't tell the truth, embellish the facts, pad your resume, you can't manage your campaign budget (5 million dollar "loan") and you tell the American people what you think they wan't to hear just to get votes. You have "fired" or people have quit your campaign staff. I wonder what your Presidential staff would be like. I wonder how you would run the country's budget. Your tax records show one of your charitable contributions to be to the "clinton foundation"! I'm glad you know what it's like to be poor and you (and Bill) made over 100 million dollars over the past seven years?! tell you what, when you've made as little as most of us out here (I've made a total of $473,000 dollars – SINCE 1985!!! ) then you can say you understand the poor. I'm sure you don't even comprehend what it's like to do without things just so you can pay $80 plus bucks to fill up your car, and then drive sparingly to make it last.

No matter what your vices are about either candidate, we need to vote Dem. in 08 and bring the troops home from this unnecessary war in Iraq. Your sons and daughters lives are at stake; in addition, they are dying for no reason.

Dems for the White House!

Hillary ...waaaaaaaaaaaa ..I'm staying in the race.
Barack : Cool calm and collected.
Hillary: waaaaaaaaa .. the press is against me.
Barack : Cool calm and collected.
Hillary: waaaaa waaaaaa he's unelectable
Barack : cool calm and presidential.
Hillary; Shame on you Barack !waaaaaaaa
Barack : cool cool calm and presidential.
Hillary: Rev. Wright ...white's won't vote for him.
Barack : presumptive Democratic pesidential nominee
Hillary: waaaaaa .. I'm staying to the end
Barack ; Democratic Nominee for president.
Hillary :I'll use the Lieberman option.
Hillary: waaaaaaa .. he will lose to McCain waaaa
Barack ; PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES !
Hillary

I am wondering if anyone noticed that instead of addressing the issue of Mr. Penn, Sen. Clinton automatically began finger pointing at Obama regarding his NAFTA "gaffe" that in reality was not his "gaffe", but her own campaign? Also, take a look at Politico.com this morning. Howard Wolfson is a former partner in Clover Park group. although he has resigned from his active position, he still has and equity interest in the company, which is now making $40,000.00 per month lobbying for CAFTA. This is a primary example of the Clinton spin, not taking responsibility for her own campaign, and trying to deflect it back to Obama. Everyone was waiting for this to happen, and she stays true to form. I do hope the good people of Pa. realize she only wants your vote. She has yet to follow through on her campaign promises to her own state regarding bringing new jobs to New York. As a matter of fact, there have been tremendous job losses in her own Senatoral area. This is a person who cannot be trusted with the Presidency. Her transparency is next to none.

Is she still attacking Obama??? This is not even about him. Why is it that when someone asks her a question about what she has done, she throws Obama's name in it?!? Obama has not even criticized her about Penn at all, unlike her demoralizing behavior in Ohio when Obama was in a similar situation. She still hasn't learned how to take the moral high ground. Just keep up with your kitchen sink strategy Clinton! What goes around comes around Hill, remember that!!!!!!!!

Hillary is decisive and that's what we need. A president who will act when needed before things gets out of hand. Obama hesitate too much and his presidency will be too little too late just like now......inexperienced!. Way to go HIllary! Congrats to your up coming wins in PA, IN, KY, WV, OR and the amazing close race in NC.

The ground is shaking under her feet and she is losing control, so she needs to blame someone else to clear her name. That's pathetic. I used to have a great respect for her but for the past 2-3 months she showed her true color and makes my stomach turn up side down listening to her nonsense. How come her supporters can be co blind? Who are those people? Don't they use their own brain to see what this woman is about? Are they on drugs or are they that stupid? Unbelievable!

I am so sick of Hillary Clinton's deceptive lying. Why does she always qualify her actions against what Senator Obama did or didn't do? She can't compare herself to him..........changing the rules, lying and oh did I say she is a liar?

I have lost a great deal of respect for her and her campaign style. I as a Democractic voter will probably cheer when I hear her say she is out of the race. Even if she manages to steal the nomination, hear this, I WILL NEVER EVER VOTE FOR HILLARY CLINTON. I will stay home.............and every Democrat who will rely on the Democratic ticket for their future political success will definitely have one less vote.....my vote is not for sale for any price and that includes getting a Democrat in the White House!

CNN should set the record straight. It was Senator Clinton's people that went to the Canadian Gov't. Concerning this issue, it is much worse that the supposed canadian conversation. This is clearly a case of talking out of both sides of the Clinton campaigns mouth. It speaks to Senator Clinton's judgement. This is clearly a serious issue that will not only have a negative impact on her canpaign now but will be an issue that could cost her the race in Novebmer if she were to win the nomination. Although she will not win the Democratic nonimation.

Obama 08

I came to know about Obama in 2004 In J Kerry campaign time he impressed me lot. Last December Obama was my candidate. But now my vote for Hillary if not Mc Cain

When news about Obama. C.Rice ,Oprah and Powell I love to read

Obama joined with Rev. Jeremiah Wright to build his political carrier

Obama used Martin Luther king speech for his political carrier but he is keeping distance from MLK followers because he wants be come president
CNN is better than Obama last weekend CNN air 36% of the their time to respect MLK
Obama proved me he is another politician

We will vote for experience only Hillary 08

Yes:

And there are some of us out here who are STILL waiting for CNN to correct its part in (again) breathlessly repeating the lie about Obama's campaign advisor, NAFTA and Canada.

Is she still attacking Obama??? This is not even about him. Why is it that when someone asks her a question about what she has done, she throws Obama's name in it?!? Obama has not even criticized her about Penn at all, unlike her demoralizing behavior in Ohio when Obama was in a similar situation. She still hasn't learned how to take the moral high ground. Just keep up with your kitchen sink strategy Clinton! What goes around comes around Hill, remember that!!!!!!!!

There she goes again!!!

Sen. Clinton would not recognize the truth if it jumped up and bit her on the nose!!!!

Sen. Clinton's aide was responsible for the Canadian ...wink..wink.
Bill Clinton was in Canada just two days before they made the huge mis-statement about Sen. Obama's aide, they turned this around and blamed Sen. Obama!!!

How do you think they knew about this? They will do and say anything to get back in the white house! If this should happen they will each (Chelsea too) be able to, once again, make $52million or more in six years for their overpriced speeches.

CNN I am wondering why we are not hearing who paid Bill Clinton $52million for giving these speeches.

Why does Sen. Clinton try to put blinkers on the American people?
Do you folks really believe that she did not know about the Penn free trade deal? Clintonites keep saying what a smart woman she is, how can you say this in one breath, and then in the next breath, turn around and say she did not know what her chief strategist was working on. Please give me a break! You bet she knew! But Penn did the deed in the background , so that Sen. Clinton could continue to say that she does/did not approve this deal.

oops! Didn't mean to say that twice. Sometimes it looks like my message isn't submitted.

"Tell me lies, tell me sweet little lies" from Fleetwood Mac should be her new theme song. At least that's the song that plays in my head everytime I hear her talk.

Come together and stop fighting. Play nice until June. Talk about what matters and salvage broken relationships before we are stuck with the same McCain. Please both sides realize that the meat of the discussion is exactly the same. BOTH SIDES ARE ALMOST MIRROR IMAGES. Given a choice I am all for Obama. But I am not for disention. They should both come together and begin to ttack what is going to put us in jeopardy. John McCain. This man scares me. Please no more attacks aimed at each other. Both sides tlak about how incompetant McCain is and may the best McCain blaster win come June 6th.

I really do not understand Hillary Clinton or her logic anymore. SHE just doesn't make any sense at all.

She's nuts.

Please report accurately on the Canadian NAFTA controversery . Do we have to rely on the Canadian government again to tell us it WAS NOT Obama's representative who said DON'T WORRY ABOUT NAFTA...IT WAS HILLARY's campaign. It was also proven Bill Clinton was in Canada at the time.

With all the resources available to you CNN and the Canadian government coming out in DEFENSE of Obama...you still refuse to report that story accurately. Why?

Hillary Clinton is still lying. Penn has not left. He said it himself on a conference call. This was all for the media and voters

Hillary leave Barack out of it. Stop trying to spin everything, this is why the public does not trust you.

HRC is spinning this so fast I'm getting nauseous - and it's not the first time. CNN, you have GOT to call her on her lies! Everyone knows that the so-called incident with Obama's campaign and Canadian officials turned out not to be as she portrayed it before the OH primary. (Wait and see what scandal she tries to unfurl on the eve of the PA primary, so voters will react viscerally to it before Obama's campaign has a chance to debunk it. Don't fall for it, PA!)

She didn't fire Penn, she just changed his title, and it's business as usual. He remains her highly paid senior strategist. Anyone who thinks that his other lobbying activities are not directly relevant to his work for her is naive. Don't you think the Colombian government feels closer to Hillary because they both employ the same well-connected "strategist"?

CNN, do your job, or you really will look like the "Clinton Nonsense Network."

Eric-PA,
The information in question was on Fox News, CNN & MSNBC. Hillary just lied so quickly, you probably missed the coverage. The sad part is that it was stated the both campaigns gave the wink wink but only one (Obama) received coverage.
Hummm... DOUBLE SIDED MEDIA AT IS BEST!!

I guess she's right if you ignore the fact that Penn is still working for her and that the story about NAFTA was actually that it was HER campaign giving the wink and not Obama.

But she is pretty good at making up stories.

What the heck is going on over there at CNN?

This morning, you deleted all the comments on the Gergen thread about the Obama-NAFTA controversy being debunked (they were there last night!). Now you refuse to post mine!

What gives?

There is a big difference between your staff member sercretely lobbying for a trade deal and Obama's staff having an informal meeting having nothing to do with the campaign and then casually talking about NAFTA and being misquoted. Oh, but nice try.

Obama '08

Is Billary serious? Wow, I see another George Dubya, typical of her to bury head in the sand.

that's so low!!!!

I'm so tired of her. I can't wait for this primary to be over. I hope I never have to see her run for public office outside NY.

I used to like her, not anymore.

Yawn.....tell me when hillary stops lying. The only thing that should now make a headline is when she actually tell the truth.

Good job Hillary!!! You have proven over and over that you are willing to take the risks and rise up victorious. You are a real fighter.

HILLARY 2008

IF I HEAR ONE MORE THING ABOUT THE FLORIDA AND MICHIGAN RECOUNT I AM GONNA JUST SCREAM!!!! THEY DONT DESERVE TO VOTE ANYWAY, THEY KNEW THE WHAT THEY COULD GET INTO IF THEY CHANGED THEIR ACTUALL VOTE DAY SO THE HELL WITH THEM!!! SECOND FLORIDA NEEDS TO JUST CHIP OFF AND FLOAT AWAY FROM THE REST OF THE US EVERYTIME VOTING COMES AROUND BECAUSE IT NEVER FAILS THEY ALWAYS HAVE SOMETHING WRONG WITH THEY."2000 VOTE"! WHAT A CROCK!

Hillary, I suppose you in Bill had nothing to do with the NAFTA agreement either. This country would not be in the mess it is in right now, had it not been for the Clintons and their behind closed door deals. What ever Walmart wants from a trade deal with the Colombians, they will get if the Clintons have anything to do with it. Anyone except Hillary!!!

She had her Penns mixed up. It should have been William Penn, not Mark Penn, giving her advice on what to do, especially in Pennsylvania, the Quaker State. His rule, like hers, is the Golden Rule and it does not say those with the gold make the rules.

IT DOESN'T MATTER WHETHER YOU THINK THIS WILL HURT YOUR CAMPAIGN OR NOT, BECAUSE .....YOU ARE ALREADY DONE!!FACE THE MUSIC THAT YOU ARE LOSING TO SOMEONE WHO WAS UNKNOWN NOT THAT LONG AGO BUT HAS INSPIRED THE NATION TO TAKE A SECOND LOOK AT POLITICS AS USUAL. GO DO WHAT YOU DO BEST. DONATE TO THE "CLINTON CHARITIES".

Yea boy.. she really dealt decisively with Penn. Like everything else with her it is an illusion. In this case he has merely been put "under the table," but still operative as evidenced by his participation in their most recent conference call.

Remember, it was Hillary's decision to leave him in place though his job placed him in serveral compromising places. Just another example of poor judgement and illusion.

I find it fascinating that Hillary can be so 2 faced about votes counting and her faithful just climb on board fat and happy. In one breath she claims"all votes must be counted" – of course thats when the discussion revolves around Florida and Michigan or when pressured to drop from the race. Then in the next breath she says "there is no such thing as pledged delegates, they should feel free to vote as they see fit" – which equates to not counting anyones vote, just let those that get a free vacation to the convention decide who the nominee is between cocktails. Hillary bends in the wind to suit herself and herself alone. Its time her supporters realize that and get her to drop out so that the party can move forward.

Hillary if this is damage control you are doing a terrilbe job of it! What is this reverse psychology? It ain't working. Hillary is as transparent as a bank's lead vault door. I don't want to see any video Hillary Clinton related unless she is giving her concede speach and backing the official democratic nominee Barrack Obama "PERIOD" enough spinin!

Hillary was:

"misled" by Bush about the Iraq War when she voted yes

"opposed to NAFTA" yet supported the bill publicly

"mispoke" in her autobiography and on the campaign trail and when she refuted Sinbad's recollection about sniper fire in Bosnia a year after the Dayton agreement had ended the conflict

"didn't know" Mark Penn was negotiating with Colombia

Couldn't pronounce Medvedev's name in the debate (Russia)

Didn't know Musharaff wasn't up for re-election

Voted for the Iran Resolution

Voted for the No Child Left Behind act, which was a "mistake"

Wow. Is she really ready on Day 1?? I am baffled that people support Hillary and have no idea how they can believe anything she says since she so clearly has a very poor track record.

Can anyone answer the question of why Obama flip-flop on the gun issue? CNN why don't you do a story on that?

APOLOGIZE TO HILLARY....SHE TOLD THAT STORY ABOUT THE PREGNENT WOMAN JUST AS THE DEPUTY TOLD HER....GO INTERVIEW HIM AND THE FAMILY OF THE WOMAN THAT DIED!

What a bunch of garbage. I can't believe her hutzpuh – thank god this is almost over – 3 more weeks and adios Hillary

1) Mr. PENN was a top staffer of HILLARY, acted in stark contradiction to precisely her STRATEGIC position and.... he CONTINUES TO BE AN ADVISER. SO, WHERE IS THE CONTRAST WITH OBAMA SHE MENTIONS ???

2) The Economic Adviser of OBAMA was simply that, an Adviser and even the Canadian admitted that the version of CTV was not accurate

3) So, the TOP STRATEGIST is not a representant of the campaign ??

These declarations are one more of HILLARY's mistakes and failed intent to mislead !!

TOM ALBO

All I can say is I cannot wait until the debate on Saturday ! I really hope Obama calls your bluff.

WILL YOU COVER THE REAL STORY ABOUT THE PREGNANT WOMAN NOW???????? WILL YOU APOLOGIZE TO HILLARY???????WHERE'S THE INTERVIEW WITH THE DEPUTY OR THE FAMILY OF THE PREGNENT WOMAN?????? DO YOUR JOB!

Or this might have been strategically timed so the $109M income is suddenly yesterday's news...

For once, can anyone answer a question directly without trying to pull someone else down? This chick is known for this type of tactic. When faced with issues, lets deflect attention to someone else. Is this the kind of President we want? I KNOW I DON'T.
According to Fox News & MSNBC, this Penn person still is very involved with her campaign so HAS SHE REALLY DEALT WITH ANYTHING? My answer is probably NOT!!!

This woman is so mentally ill and might I add very desperate !

The way she deals with her lies is so pathetic – instead of taking responsibility for her wrongdoings, she shifts blames and points out contrasts.

It's obvious to every thinking American that she was for CFTA, just like she was for NAFTA.

Furthermore, Penn is only demoted and not fired, so how is that
for " appropriately handling things." This proves that she is only about playing mind games, and is a habitual liar.

It's time for REAL change in Washington, it's time for Barack Obama for president !

Will somebody tell me why the Obama team isn't hammering on Hillary consistant lies. (everyone please please please check out this website:

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-6470450895164255089&q=clinton+chronicles&pr=goog-sl

Can you believe it? Just like the snipper lies – try and turn the attention from herself to Obama! Mark Penn was getting PAID on BOTH ends!

YOU OWE HILLARY CLINTON AN APOLOGY....
....WHERE IS YOUR CORRECTION ABOUT CALLING HILLARY A LIAR ABOUT THE PREGNANT WOMAN???????? GO INTERVIEW THE DEPUTY.....GO FIND THE FAMILY!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hillary ALL THE WAY IN 08 !!!

Three cheers for "Washington as Usual". We can see exactly what "experiece" has taught Ms. Clinton - to redirect HER issues onto someone else. Ms. Clinton must have spent a good deal of time with Mr. Bush - he has taught her well.

She did something appropriate???? Appropriate would have been firing him and getting him away from your campaign. Instead, you demoted him and he is still apart of your campaign. Saying you did something appropriate doesn't mean you did the right thing.

"""Hey""" All you guys and gals who are OBAMA surporters with all your
""Nasty and hatefull comments""" about Hillary Clinton!!!!
""""""""""""""""JUST WATCH THE FUN""""""""""""""""""
All Hillary surporters are going to wet their pants with lauhgter when OBMA does "NOT"
get the nomination and Hilliary does!

""""""""""""""""""""""""""" I KNOW THAT I WILL"""""""""""""""""""""""""""

Everytime Hillary gets in a "bad spot", she brings up Obama to get the attention off her. Desperate times calls for desperate measures is what Hillary's campaign should be called.

Everytime she gets desperate she "low rates" Obama. Jeeeeeeezzzz, lady!

Obama 08!

I am a 23 year old former Republican. I switched to Democrat in large part because of Barrack Obama. I switched because I believed in a future for America that we could come together on. I am saddened that differences of opinion are putting this future at risk. I call for a cease fire of attacks. I call for a unifying message that we can all stand behind. This message can bring us together like nothing seen in history. Our goals are very equal in nature. We need our troops out of Iraq. We need our economy to be fixed. We need health care available to those that need help. We need to fix a broken politics in Washington. We need to come together or we will perish apart.

She is right...Ms. Clinton has already damaged her own reputation.

Yeah ...you're right! understand that even if the two states (Florida & Michigan) delegates are sits and even if they're given to you it will not make any difference. Understand that "whatever you sow, you'll reap". Its very unfortunate that you can't see that you'll not be able to win the nomination....you told lies to Ohions about your objections to Nafta, yet your records indicated otherwise" whether "Penn's Blunder" will hurt your compaign or not depend on the subsequent primaries...stop the threats of making our convention fiasco....The politcs of fear, will not work this time!!!
Long Live Democratic party.
Obama all the way.

The longer HRC stays in the race, the more I'm believing that she must have a "bombshell" for Barry later on before or during the convention. She's beginning to look more and more like John Kerry in stepping on her own mess (when she really doesn;t have to).

She needs to realize that Barry has a coat of Teflon even more thicker than Ronald Reagan. Nothing negative sticks to him (at least for now)

I find it "CURIOUS" that Mrs Hollier-Than-Thou Clinton is so concerned with disenfranchising the voters of Michigan and Florida buy not counting the votes she AGREED would not count! Rather she would prefer to disenfranchise an ENTIRE COUNTRY by having super delegates overturn the will of the people.

She talks out of both sides of her mouth. I can no longer support such hypocrisy!

Hillary is so professional, even when the media and Obama fans are so hard on her. She will make a great president. She dosn't deny anything like Obama did until a secret memo was discovered.

Go Hillary!

YES WE WILL!

CNN: PLEASE reveal the real story on NAFTAgate! Please show some journalistic integrity and show that Hillary and her minions Penn and Wolfson were behind the contact with Canada regarding NAFTA! I am so tired of Hillary LYING continually, and the msm lapping it up. Once and for all, expose her for the power hungry greedy manipulative person she is!
$15.3 million from Dubai? Bullets over Bosnia? The Ohio pregnant woman? Mark Penn deals in Colombia?
Enough is enough. This country faces real problems; this sideshow MUST end!

Is she ever going to stop lying to us...........

Obamabots- stop spreading lies. Factcheck etc have all said it was OBAMA that did the deed. I am SERIOUSLY worried about Obama- talk about LYING!! Only knew Rezko for 5 months?! Wasn't in church for controversial sermons (what about "White Men's Greed?") How about JFK bill that DID NOT sponsor his father as claimed....DON'T GET ME STARTED. Obama's WHOLE campaign has been a mirage and a media creation and a big fat lie!!!!!

How can she say this! She had to know what he was doing. How can we. as Americans, trust this woman. He was her top guy! Also, no one is making a big deal about her extension on her 2007 taxes. I think there is a lot of things in there that she does not want the public to see. A lot of people have commented about how much money she contributed to charity. Those contributions started the minute she started running for Persident. I am calling on all Americans to pay attention. These are not co-incidences.

Why should she be concerned. This guy is just a minor issue compared to the major problems she faces:
-No executive supervision (departmental, division, military)
-Numerous documented evidence of stretching the truth to improve her pale resume.
-Socialist left ideas on domestic, economic issues–directly opposite former President Clinton's.
-Lack of old guard support–they're moving farther left than ever before and beginning to support Obama.

Obama's advisor was not the CEO of a conflicting lobbyist company, nor was he the head partner in a political advisement organization.

Stop trying to spin and change the rules whenever it suits you, Hillary! Be the strong woman you claim to be and realize that your campaign has run its course. we dem's want to move on the the general election.

If we (dems) lose this election because you(HRC) polarized the left, your career in polotics will be over and we will get 4 more years of BUSH!

Stop it Hillary, stop it.

PS... Hillary joked that she could win the election by bowling. Guess she should have practiced before she went on Ellen's show. More empty rhetoric from the Clinton camp again.

GO HILLARY!!! – Stop all the pro-obama trash Clinton.
CNN did a story on Senator Clinton yesterday that was FALSE
The mother/baby did die – she was asked for $100 and she did have to change hospitals – Per The Aunt!
I expect CNN to do a corrected story today – you really should check out your FACTS before you air a story that is not true about a United States Senator.
I am sure if this was done to glory-boy obama – Jessie Jackson would be all over you. Treat ALL the candidates with respect and report fair facts!

As Gov. Rendell recently said about the Clinton presidency, "Which part didn't you like - the peace or the prosperity?" The Clintons are proven winners, Obama is a flash in the pan.

Sorry the question is posed as whether or not Penn's fiasco would be damaging not what BO's guy did. Answer the question as it pertains to your campaign. Double talk is getting OLD!!!!

PA voters...please please please do the right thing. We here in NC are so excited to have our votes count because we are supporting Obama...we want to trust our President.

There is nothing more gratifying and entertaining in this election cycle than to see the media daring (from time to time) to treat Dems in the same harsh way that they never hesitate to treat Republicans. No wonder Dems are crying foul so often! Now they know that being in bed with the media doesn't mean they should trust them implicitly. Too bad Dems can't handle such potential unfairness with seemingly as much grace.

"I don't think [it will hurt], because I think people want to know where I stand,"

That's the point!! Nobody knows where you stand on a single issue (including yourself, I'd wager).

Your opinion on key points is dictated by the latest opinion polls.

We need a leader, not someone who was against the war before she voted for the war, only to oppose it years and 4000 American lives too late.

EXACTLY.

Go Hillary go. Rise Hillary rise.

Hillary is such a professional, even when the media and Obama fans are so hard on her. She is going to be a great president. Obama lied until there was a secret memo discovered. Hillary dosn't deny anything.

Go Hillary!

Hillary: Mommy tell Obama to stop winning. That is not fair. I want to win too.

Obama: Mom I am just doing what you said: "stay focused and do not pay attention to hillary. She will leave you alone soon."

Child's play.

The Canadians stated that it was not Obama's aid that mentioned NAFTA. In fact, the Canadians revealed that it actually was Clinton's aid w/ whom they had the conversation about NAFTA, and they apologized to Obama for the mistake.

Again, Mrs. Clinton skews the facts, oooops, I mean "misspeaks". What ever comes out of her mouth has proven to be an unequivocal LIE! Watch out for that sniper fire, Hill.

There she goes again lying and covering her tracks. Same way as Bill did which laid to the embracement of a proud nation. The is not what Obama did but what are you doing to build your confidence with the American public.
Do we need a female Bush in White house? This is what the people have to decide.

I wish the Obamanation idiots could and would get the facts straight. Penn was not working for the campaign or the Clinton's at the time this took place. Read the facts idiots before you post.

PA – we are counting on you! Obama gets away with everything and anything Clinton does is crucified! Look at the candidates... Send Hillary to the top! She is this country's only hope... despite Obama's empty rhetoric!

Hillary Clinton '08

No matter how Clinton words it, the fact is quite obvious: Obama has run a much successful campaign than Clinton has so far.

Unbelievable. I am amazed that Senator Clinton would actually say, "Mr. Obama's representative told the Canadian government basically not to pay any attention to what Senator Obama was saying about NAFTA."

This story broke just before the Ohio elections, potentially altering the vote of many democrats in the election. Just a FEW DAYS afterwards, it turns out that the story was full of inconsistencies, but many of the early reports about what happened were wrong.

Evidently, despite the story turning out to be bogus Senator Clinton feels it is okay to continue using it as an attack. Maybe she should have also brought up the story about the pregnant woman in the hospital (that turned out to be false) or some of her "dangerous" situations in war-torn countries... while being read poetry by little children.

I used to respect her, but now she just makes me sick.

Does she not realize that every time she disses Obama, she diminishes herself and makes herself more and more slimey and disliked (if that is indeed even possible)? Getting rid of this slob at this point shows very bad judgement on her part; it should have been done MONTHS ago. Is this the sort of conflicted, angry, and opportunistic person she will appoint to cabinet positions as well?

Has anyone else noticed the shifty eyes whenever she is about to spin/lie about something?

Hillary is a liar, and she should never be trusted.

Hillary is for NAFTA, always has been and always will be.

America, wake up before it's too late.

HILLARY, CHILDREN DON'T LIE AS OFTEN AS YOU!

SN from MN, I have news for you-most of the Obama supporters are well educated, so, bad news for you. I would also like to add that, considering Obama has yet to trounce Clinton on her discrepancies, she STILL chooses to try to turn her unfortunate situation around to Obama. Like I've said before, he keeps trying to treat her like a lady-something she is not.

Senator Obama's advisor said something. That's the key. He said something. He nor Senator Obama did anything. Hillary's advisor was doing the very thing she claims she is against, she knew it and did nothing about it. Hillary supporters think about this; she has run her entire campaign based on excuses of what somebody else is doing. If she wins the election is she then going to employ some Bush tactics and say well when Bush did it you didn't say anything. THIS woman is dangerous. She has a real credibility problem, a judgment problem and they will have to take her kicking and screaming out of the door. She is a nut case. She can't hold onto the superdelegates votes anymore because she knows they are not going to vote for this lunatic. So now she's playing the Fl and MI card.
She wants to count their votes. I wish those people could revote just to show her that she has lost most of them with her craziness. Their delegates aren't going to vote for her either. Its one thing to elect a president and then find out he's nuts but its another thing to elect one that is up front. The job itself will only make you worse.

You really took action. He resigned from his position but is still working for your campaign. Its just another smoke and mirrors tatic. I really don't understand why you would compare yourself to Obama when you know the information is out that this man is in fact still working for you and taking part in morning briefings for your campign days after he supposedly resigned. If your going to take shots at your oppenent havent you learned by now to at least make sure the facts don't contridict what you say?

This is not the only time a staff member of her campaign has stepped down. Hillary has mismanaged her entire team; therefore, she cannot manage this country.

Blame blame blame
Time to go home Billary!
We won't let you steal the election by changing the rules

This is an example of why Hillary should be President. She will handle situations as they come up and she will make sure the situation is RIGHT.

Every time I hear Hillary speak or read her comments I wonder if she is telling the truth. She is not the type of person who should be President.

Tipical Hillary. Try to devert from your poor judgment!!
It will not work. Your campaign has been in shambles from "DAY 1"
You will not pull on PA what you clearly pulled in Ohio.
Unlike yourself, "We the People" learn from our mistakes.

There she goes again. She did not take any action, he still is very much a part of the campaign. We know what is really going on. How dumb does she think we are.

I am a 60+ year old women and it makes me sick to see how she is trying to use us women to get votes. I for one see through her for what she really is. A cheat . She is dishonest and does not care about any of us but herself. I will wait until a women with real values comes along and then I will cast my vote. PLEASE women,do what is right for the country, yourself, your daughters and granddaughters. She does set a good example for any us us. Don't make us all look like stupid fools.

The Canadians stated that it was not Obama's aid that mentioned NAFTA. In fact, the Canadians revealed that it actually was Clinton's aid w/ whom they had the conversation about NAFTA, and they apologized to Obama for the mistake.

Again, Mrs. Clinton skews the facts, oooops, I mean "misspeaks". What ever comes out of her mouth has proven to be an unequovical LIE! Watch out for that sniper fire, Hill.

I cannot wait to see how the PA voters vote. It will say a lot about what type of human being they are looking for to be the next President.

Of all the nerve, trying to compare this to a supposed incident with an Obama rep that NEVER happened! AND, to suggest that she moved on this quickly is so disingenuous. Her campaign has know that Penn's conflicts of interest were disasters waiting to happen for over a year. Talk about mismanaging one's campaign!

As a one time supporter of Clinton's, I have lost all respect for her.

Funny how Hillary can't take a hit without trying to deflect. Everytime her campaign gets caught with their "pants down" she tries to throw a grenade at Barack Obama. No one in their right mind expects Obama to be perfect but, Hillary I can tell you, this kind of mud slinging is not attractive. Not attractive at all and frankly makes me more sure then ever that I am voting for the right person. Here's a hint – it ain't you...

All of you need to start looking at HER record not Bill Clinton's....

I love the story out of the Washington Post about Hillary's so called flap on the hospital in Ohio... She was pretty accurate come to find out... once again the media should appologize and set the record straight for the next 2 weeks... there is no media bias during this primary season...

KY for Obama,

Where did you get that information from? Hillary's campaign gave the wink-wink to Canadian officials? In your dreams. Never happened. Get the facts straight before you open your mouth.

This is more the she said , he said game. I become very frustrated when anyone, that wont take responsibility for their own actions without trying to turn the conversation to someone else.
She made a statement that she wouldnt have tolerated anyone on her campaign doing what there is no proof of the Obama people doing.
She is mincing words, and the right thing to do is to release this individual from her campaign, and to move forward, isnt she the one that said refute isnt good enough that you have to renounce and refute.
Now she is calling to boycott the opening of the olympics, if the American people look inward their treatment of Katrina victims, inner city poverty, racial profiling I am not sure the US is the country to stand up and point fingers. The Clintons did nothing about China when they were in office, now it is th newest political hot potatoe and she is jumping in , she should have jumped into Lousinana if she really cared

Because she says it is so she truly believes her stories. Come on Hillary the public isn't that stupid. You should be crowned the Queen of Liars.

Hillary I dont trust I said that in the beginning of your campaign you knew what Penn was doing. I wondering why you saying he resign but he is still working on your campaign as a staff member.

curiously, this sounds like something that would come out of Mark Penn's mouth......guess that's why he is still her advisor after a public demotion of title.

that's it, he no longer has an official title...but he's obviously lurking behind the scenes.

I am an independent who has been leaning towards voting for the democrats, but the way how Senator Hillary handles these issues is really turning me off. It is unbelievable how she compares her response to Senator Obama. Sometimes you have to face issues straight on and be genuine about them. I don't think I can ever vote for her after seeing her response.

Oh, and a little update on the polls in Pennsylvania:

ARG* shows an even score for a poll conducted 04/05 to 04/06.
Quinnipiac shows Clinton up by 6 points for a poll conducted 04/03 to 04/06.

I guess Pennsylvania *is* waking up, and they're realizing they had a really bad dream...

(North Carolina is waking up, too, the latest PPP and Rasmussen polls both indicate he has a more than 20 point lead on Clinton there)

... it's OVER.

Time has shown the longer Obama has to campaign (and the longer Clinton has, too) ... the better Obama does. Given the dead heat in a number of states, and the overwhelming lead in North Carolina, as well as the completely disintegrated double digit lead Clinton lost in PA... she'll need to win more than 80% of the superdelegates remaining to become the nominee.

***STEP OUT NOW***

Regardless of the truthfullness of her statements, she could really go an interview without blasting Obama. Simmer down, Hillary. Help your party.

Yes, I agrre with Walt, bill clinton is the worst prsident in history about
bribe money. That why $15Millions book deal he got advance + lots money behide. Why American still want hillary back to White House. Do not send money to them. They make more than 20Millions on they own, instead send to her all of you should send direct to Charity must better.

Clintons seem to lie on everything...

I will attempt to list out the popular ones..

First it was the the "experience" tale

Then came the "ready-on-day-one" weave

Then the "running-under-sniper-fire" story

And the "woman-without-insurance-died" blame

Now its "I-dont-have-connections-to-the-columbians" tale..

Atleast now I can use these as ice-breakers at golf games

Please, Hillary if you consider armchair moving a kind of action then you better think again. The truth is that Hillary, like George Bush junior, think loyalty is everything. She will sacrifice the interest of the nation and her own intergrity to maintain a loyalty to a friend. Mr. Penn has no business being around your campaign after what he did.

What a load of rubbish.

The situation with Obama's economic advisor is totally different, not to mention Hillary's campaign got busted for actually reaching out to Canada to tell them not to worry about her "tough talk" on NAFTA, whereas Obama's economic advisor made clear that reforms for NAFTA would be in the works that would force more strict environmental and labor standards so all nations stood on equal ground.

Penn was ACTIVELY LOBBYING for CAFTA... Obama's advisor was doing nothing of the sort.

Based on the posts in most blogs I read, the typical Obama blogger must be about twelve.

Sure she says it's not damagingt. One thing you can count on with Hillary is she will be dismissive of anything or anyone that gets in the way of her quest for power, control, and greed.

She dismisses small business owners to whom she owes money, small states, red states, caucus states, voters in South Carolina when she felt betrayed by them, Bill Richardson's endorsement of Obama, and if she gets back in the White House she will dismiss the wishes of everyone of us voters.

There are a lot of open questions on this alliance with Colombia . Further probing showed her Finance Manager had discussions with Colombia as well.

So, Hillary don't tell me it won't hurt. The problem has not been "vetted" as you would say. The fact that you still have Penn VERY ACTIVE in your campaign speaks volumes. He just got caught making a deal and it will be exposed that Bill Clinton is very invested in getting that free trade deal done to line his pockets. You can cry foul why he does backdoor deals.

BTW, Hillary, if you wanted Michigan and Florida counted, then why did you agree that they should not be counted? Or was that agreement just another of your many lies?

Yeah, we are getting pretty used to seeing people leave the Clinton Campaign. Campaign Manager, Top Strategist, various advisors, long term Clinton Supportors, and even Superdelegates are jumping off the Clinton Titanic all the time. Jump before it sinks!!!!

Just like Hillary to blame Obama when she gaffs.
What does Obama have to do with this?
You are toast Hillary.
Bubye

The Canadians stated that it was not Obama's aid that mentioned NAFTA. In fact, the Canadians revealed that it actually was Clinton's aid w/ whom they had the conversation about NAFTA, and they apologized to Obama for the mistake.

Again, Mrs. Clinton skews the facts, oooops, I mean "misspeaks". What ever comes out of her mouth has proven to be an unequivicol LIE! Watch out for that sniper fire, Hill

For once could she have the dignity to take responsibility for her own camp actions without trying to deflect. It makes her sound so childish. I am sorry. It is like being back on the playground. So what you want to about Barack Hussein Obama, but when it comes to these campaign, I would want this country ran like Obama's campaign whether than Hillary's.

I am glad she got rid of him!!! He was killing her slowly. I will continue to support you Hillary.

Every time Sen. Clinton opens her mouth a pack of lies flies out! I find it extremely difficult to believe anything she says or find any sincerity in her words. She may be telling the truth on some of this, but how are we to believe her?

I voted for Pres. Clinton twice and was prepared to vote for Sen. Clinton in this election until November '07 when I took a closer look at Sen. Obama. I'm so glad I made the choice to support his campaign at that time.

It's sad to see Sen. Clinton's talent wasted by her egotism, need for control and her need to win at any cost. Very, very unfortunate.

I believe that the Canadian Government apologized to Obama for making a false statement and Clinton has her facts confused, as usual.
Clinton didn't even get rid of Penn, she just demoted the guy... so the Columbian Government is more straigtforward than Clinton, because they actually DID fire him. Now that's a sad state of affairs.

Funny, the Colombians didn't seem to realize whether Penn was there on behalf of her campaign (wink, wink). I'm curious as to what "action" she took, as Mr. Penn seems to still be a major player in her campaign and is most definitely still on the payroll. She changed his title, so now everything is supposed to be okay?

Lies, lies, lies... the Colombian gov't itself was unsure if Penn was representing his company or Clinton's campaign. Also, how can she have the gall to raise the Canada-NAFTA issue again; it turned out to be HER campaign that gave the wink-wink to Canadia officals. I suppose she is trying to capitalize on the media's lack of attention to this fact. Please, someone call her out on this, which I'm sure she wil later dispute as yet another simple "misspeak".

And for the last time, Obama NEVER EVER said he was not willing to do a revote in FL and MI!! He has been consistent that he will agree to whatever the DNC finds as an appropriate resolution.

She's right! The media likes to dwell on stories that make Hillary look bad, but they fail to do the same for Obama. It's been like this for months now.

Her credibility continues to decrease. Hope she gets trounced in the Penna. primary and withdraws from the campaign at long last. Noone would be more divisive as Pres. than she would

I can not trust a single word coming out of her mouth.

Yes, Hillary, your credibility is so high. Only the blindly radical feminists and senile Geezers With Wheezers who will not be around in 2012 still believe in you.

Hillary, you own appointments calendar clearly shows that on many occasions you not only supported NAFTA but were in charge of events to both promote NAFTA and to suppress labor's opposition to NAFTA. Yet you have continued to lie about that, as you have so many other things.

Hillary will say and do anything to get nominated for President. If a person will say and do anything that's the kind of person you really have to stay clear of. I do not have any trust in this womem especially not to be my President. She does not have the interest of the people this a "personal" gain for HILLARY CLINTON. She lie, lies and lies.

She is right... she acted quickly and Obama did not do anything to his adviser... I think it is really sad that Obama has been stating that he is not like the "Old Washington"... yet he continues to play dirty politics through his supporters and he also has similar staff that all of the candidates employee... LOBBYIST!!!

Once again all of the Obama supporters will run with this one and try to spin the facts...

Save it Hillary!!! You're a liar.. Don't use Barack as an excuse take ownership for what has occured!!

Obama 08!!!

There you go again, not accepting any responsiblity and trying to throw mud yet again at Obama.

I started the election without a true opinion of you, and now through all the series of your elections I have lost faith in the whole clinton family.

Wait a minute. My recollection is that there remained an unanswered dispute of fact about what Obama's aide said to the Canadians. They took some notes that represented the aide as saying that Obama was "playing politics" when he spoke negatively about NAFTA–a rather shocking thing for any aide to say. Indeed, Obama's aide denied ever making such a silly, counterproductive statement.

In Clinton's case, there is no question about what her affiliate did regarding Columbia, right? Unless my recollection is mistaken, it seems extremely disingenuous for her to compare the two episodes.

Virtual Reality: It is interesting to see how Clinton spins this. It suggests that, far from being dishonest, she is trapped in a mythical universe of her own making.

Her top advisor was lobbying for the Columbians yet she didn't know it.

There was no sniper fire yet she didn't know it.

There was no death at a hospital for lack of insurance yet she didnt' know it.

Not exactly ready on Day 1 or even to pick up that 3 a.m. phone call.

Why is it now being reported as truth that the Obama advisor said to the Canadian officials "not to worry about Obama's stance on NAFTA", that it's just politics? As I recall, the story ended up being not true. This JUST happened weeks ago. The media, in this case, and Hillary herself, continues this false narrative when it was outted as never happening?

I don't like the way the truth and lies are intermingled so effortlessly surrounding this and many issues. Where can a person find the facts? And why doesn't the media or Hillary get called out on this?

YOUR CAMPAIGN WAS THE ONE WHO WINKED AT CANADA!!

We dont trust anything you say anymore Hillary!

Dear Senator Clinton,

You are a liar!! We do not believe anything you say. You are selfish and only want to be president to fulfill you and your husbands greedy voids. It's funny how you now believe every vote should count when you agreed to Michigan and Florida being discounted from the very beginning. Now that you need them....

Disappointed former supporter,

What action did she take? Penn is still a senior advisor in her campaign, according to him. A big thanks goes out to Rush Limbaugh for keeping Hillary in the race, thus stimulating so many new democrats to register. Meanwhile, why should we believe anything Hillary says?

I wish I could but it's hard for me to believe anything that comes out of Hillary's mouth now.

You tread on very dangerous ground when you centralize your campaign around NAFTA.

Perhaps the PA people weren't watching as you blew smoke in OH on the same issue... (and accused Obama of something your campaign did, which is... calling Canada to inform them that you don't really mean it)...

In short: You have lied too much. Your fundamental issue is surrounded by lies. You lobbied hard for NAFTA. Your actions, and that of your campaign, regarding foreign trade are shifty at best, but suggest that you do not believe the rhetoric you are using to win blue collar votes.

Pennsylvania! Wake up!

Anyone but Clinton in '08!

IS hillary inhaling again ? The Canadian government was referring to someone in the clinton campaign....NOT Obama . Will hillary ever gets the facts straight and stop her lying ?

1st of all it is for the voters to decide wether or not this controversy will or will not be damaging to her campaign. There;s to much of a conflict of interest is this thing, and above all else Mr. Penn is still with the campaign!

I suspect Hillary and Bill were behind the whole thing and her public position of being against the trade bill was bull and she was actually for it because she got paid off, just like Bill would have if he was still the bribe disposal unit.........

Oh puhlease... you very public campaign manager was WORKING to make this deal to happen. And have those allegations even been corroborated or are you just repeating gossip as usual.

So hard to believe you Hillary...
