Clinton campaigned in Pittsburgh Wednesday.

(CNN) — Hillary Clinton said Wednesday she has long disagreed with her husband on issues of free trade.

"I have a long record of being on a different attitude toward trade than my husband does," she said in Pittsburgh. "I don't think any married couple I know agrees on everything. And we disagree on this."

Bill Clinton has indicated in the past he supports free trade with Colombia. The New York senator is now sharply critical of the measure and said she will work to see it is not authorized by Congress.

Asked Wednesday if she had talked about this issue with her husband, she said "we talk about everything."

Brilliant. Let's them have it every which way. Nobody will know what a 3rd Clinton Administration would do on trade. Just the way they like it because then they can be everything to everyone.

Chris from San Antonio   April 9th, 2008 2:23 pm ET

She had absolutely no idea her cheif campaign strategist went to Columbia, in the middle of one of the most important primaries of her candidacy. Honest.

MP-Pennsylvania   April 9th, 2008 2:23 pm ET

Thats what Obama is saying. He has different attitude about America than his pastor.
Hillary supporters, I hope now tghis will open your eyes.

Thanks

Vig   April 9th, 2008 2:24 pm ET

As Chelsea has already informed us, her mother will make the better President than her father. Kids know their parents.

Jack   April 9th, 2008 2:24 pm ET

yeah you do , Hillary! Be proud of it!

Elizabeth Edwards endorsed your healthcare plan today!! That's a great start for NC!!

HRC, it's over babe   April 9th, 2008 2:24 pm ET

Simple….let's put you to the test. Oops! what test? I don't need to be reminded that you lie a lot.
Does anyone still believe this woman? Such ppl as believe in her need their heads examined for Billwinsky fatique.

MP-Pennsylvania   April 9th, 2008 2:24 pm ET

IF you talk everything how come that you claimed you didnt know that bill is lobbying for Dubai port deal???

LifeLongDemocrat   April 9th, 2008 2:24 pm ET

Hillary is her own person. She will make a great president!

Those of you who cannot see an Clinton/Obama ticket listen up: historically there has been animus between various candidates but they still end up on the ticket. Needs to be that way in order to create the "big tent" that the Democrats want to have. Only way Obama would get my vote is is Hillary or a surrogate such as Ed Rendell would be on the ticket.

P.S. In looking at some of the comments on other blogs, Obama does NOT have the nomination and he will not without superdelegates so don't count your chickens before they hatch!

A. Harrison   April 9th, 2008 2:24 pm ET

Right on HILLARY!

You are one person, BILL is another, please get it through your heads America!

A real leader, with real solutions, HILLARY 2008!

RT   April 9th, 2008 2:25 pm ET

If her campaign is any indication of how her administration will be run, we are in for some dark times ahead. You are against this trade deal but all of your top advisors are for it? Will this be what your cabinet is like? And don't think that Bill is going to be a major player behind the scenes if she gets elected. Who is actually running in this campaing?

Lee WV   April 9th, 2008 2:26 pm ET

As soon as Obama officially gets the nomination she will have a miraculous change of heart and agree on free trade.Maybe she is just shell-shocked from sniper-fire.

Dem w an attitude   April 9th, 2008 2:26 pm ET

There is one value they share in common- they are both PROVEN LIARS!

I could care less about who Bill "is" or isn't having "sexual relations" with.

But they've been lying abot their support for the Iraq war, their support of NAFTA, her experience, and countless other issues important to Americans.

She will never win in November.

Michael   April 9th, 2008 2:26 pm ET

Everyone affiliated with the White House during the Clinton administration, including people who oppossed them, had clearly hat Hillary harbored ill feelings towards NAFTA and other free trade agreements, this is no secret. But it does show how quickly Obama is willing to abandon his message of a "new kind of politics."

Why doesn't the press focus on statements like the one in 2007 where he stated that he supported the free trade agreement with Peru… and actually voted on it?

The man's campaign is not as clean and honest as Obama supporters would like you to think it is.

Minnesota Real   April 9th, 2008 2:27 pm ET

This should quiet the critics about who will be in charge in the White House when Hillary is president.

She's definitely her own woman.

Stacy Clarks,   April 9th, 2008 2:27 pm ET

right—-> not buying it!

OBAMA 08!!!

yael   April 9th, 2008 2:27 pm ET

This is why the "Billary" slam is not only inappropriate and demeaning, but also unjust. Hillary is brilliant as an American leader on her own, in her own right. To discount his experience is foolish, to imagine it discounts Hillary's indepedent thinking is absurd.

Falconnetti   April 9th, 2008 2:27 pm ET

Boy those Clintons sure have a slick game going! Bill gets money from the South American countries saying he supports free trade agreements, Hillary gets votes from uninformed citizens saying that she opposes it. Can it get any better? Unbelievable.

PA for Obama, because Clinton not truthful   April 9th, 2008 2:28 pm ET

Hillary Clinton is correct she have a different attitude that her husband.

1). She accept him having an Affair white she's in the house.

2). She lies straight to our faces without batting an eye.

3) Peter Paul case is active.

4) Her former Pastor is a child Molester sentence for 7 years

5) She is for NAFTA and the Coulumbia Free Trade and can be trusted.

Tim   April 9th, 2008 2:28 pm ET

She'll do or say anything to be in the White House…America is tired of the Clintons. How do people not see through her?

William - North Carolina   April 9th, 2008 2:28 pm ET

"Clinton: I have different attitude than my husband."

Then why send him all over the world campaigning for her? They both lie, spin and change roles so often how does one know what to believe from this duo?

What I do know is, I don't want either of them ever again in the White House.

Counting Down   April 9th, 2008 2:29 pm ET

Joint Income! He was paid around $800,000 by Colombia and I sure bet she didn't mind that money. Can you reject and denounce the money fro Colombia that you share with your spouse? Does Hillary disagree with her husband on certain things or just the things that are popular in the polls?

Geof   April 9th, 2008 2:29 pm ET

Hey CNN, why don't you give us more details? For example, tell us about Clinton's husband recieving $800 000 from Columbian government in 2005 for promoting their free trade with US and what former president promised them - which is all over the Columbian press at that time? He is even more involved in Columbia -gate than M.Penn…

Bill and Mark Penn have their own agenda. Hillary is a pawn in their game.

Derrick   April 9th, 2008 2:29 pm ET

Hillary will win, no doubt about it.

I just hope the Obama supporters can handle the truth about this. They should have a pretty good idea by now that this WILL HAPPEN.

It is okay Obamabots, just start realizing this now rather than later. It will help!

Hillary for President…. NO ONE ELSE!

Ted   April 9th, 2008 2:29 pm ET

I'm sure this has nothing to do with Hillary's efforts to distance herself from past positions to get votes in Pennsylvania :-). And when do we get to see the donor list for Bill Clinton's Foundation and Library, and have some understanding of why these big donors won't exert undue influence over the Clintons?

Mike   April 9th, 2008 2:30 pm ET

That is what the Obamatons dont get Hillary. You disagreed with Bill as first lady on NAFTA, you threatened to end NAFTA as senator. The only one double-dealing is Obama on Canada before the Ohio debate.

Obama likes to let his people do the dirty work for him and they take the fall when discovered. Just like his pastor, his campaign people and he even sold out his own grandmother to save his political skin.

We need you Hillary!

Bryan   April 9th, 2008 2:30 pm ET

I'm glad to see that she stands up for what she believes in. Even some married couples vote different parties, like the Gov of California the terminator is a Republican and his wife a former Kennedy votes democrat. So Hillary is correct couples have different views and as long as they stick to what they believe in is what matters. Good Job Hillary. Even though the press doesn't like to talk about it, but many people have come out and said how you were against NAFTA in the 90's even though Obama would like people to believe otherwise. Those that are informed and do their research will vote for you.

Hillary 08

PS to Pelosi, we don't want Obama at all on our ticket, glad you agree

honkey white guy from cali   April 9th, 2008 2:30 pm ET

Oh my give me a break in the words of her husband "this is the biggest fairy tail I have ever seen" She has a long record of supporting NAFTA both in the white house and after It was only after super Tuesday that she realized she did not have the nomination wrapped up like she thought she would and all those little states she did not care about in the start of things were all the union jobs have been gutted because of NAFTA that she finally started speaking out against it one more lie to add to the long list. she lies when the truth would do her better! how very sad for her.
Go Omama 08

tigerakabj   April 9th, 2008 2:30 pm ET

Clinton, who you do think you're fooling? Let's see, Maggie Williams, you're number 2/3/4 person, was involved in sub-prime lending, but you don't agree with that. Not that you aren't about speeches, but your husband Bill made $800,000 in speeches on behalf of CAFTA, but you don't agree with that either. Your earliest record shows that you were on the board of Walmart, bustin' up unions, but you are fighting for their rights now? Liar, Liar, pantalones on fire. You will reap what you sow Hillary.

PAUL PROVIDENCE RI   April 9th, 2008 2:30 pm ET

Spoken like a true presidential candidate. Bill is like a rabbit, when you need him you pull him out of the hat. Need to blame someone, well there is always someone else. The truth is the man is still working for you, Mr Penn that is. Why couldn't you drop him like you have other people? Stop playing the American people as fools.

PA Democrat   April 9th, 2008 2:30 pm ET

Sureee- Your top advisor is making secret trades with Columbia, your husband supports trades with Columbia and of course you disagree - It has nothing to do with the fact that you are trying to win votes! Just another OBVIOUS lie Hillary! Im not buying it!!!
Mark Penn who supposedly did something YOU are against is still running your campaign.
Who do you think you are fooling??
Penn's back door deals WILL and DiD hurt your campaign!

wilfred   April 9th, 2008 2:30 pm ET

What tactic can I use now? I know, I'll throw my husband under the bus!

Nancy   April 9th, 2008 2:30 pm ET

Those people who don't believe that a husband and wife can disagree must belong to the religious cult in Texas who believe that the wife must do what the husband says.

socialism scares me   April 9th, 2008 2:30 pm ET

A. Harrison, how is she a real leader? As a native of New York I can honestly tell you she's a horrible "leader". You're about as far off the mark as those snipers that took aim at her.

CY from a non democratic country   April 9th, 2008 2:30 pm ET

This is why we shouldn't have political dynaties.

Hillary Lies!   April 9th, 2008 2:30 pm ET

What a load of crap! She just wants to make it look like it was possible she disagreed with NAFTA even though it's well documented that she cheerleaded for it. Can anyone trust a word she says anymore?

Travis   April 9th, 2008 2:30 pm ET

Long history?.. like the past eighteen months??

Dave from SC   April 9th, 2008 2:31 pm ET

He cheats and lie. You just lie and lie; and when you are caught well you lie some more.

That's what some people fail to realize, Hill is Hill, Bill is Bill. Hillary is her own woman. She is going to make a wonderful president.

Hillary 2008!!!

Frank Esper (Ohio)   April 9th, 2008 2:31 pm ET

Hillary , your just Cherry Picking your experience. Your running on All your experience in the white house…but not this…no, not that…the good things..I had nothing to do with the bad…it was all good for me….

…all good

PA   April 9th, 2008 2:31 pm ET

She has been caught lying. Why trust her with our Country?

California girl   April 9th, 2008 2:31 pm ET

Hillary is the REAL CHANGE. Thank you Mrs. Edwards for backing Hillary on the healthcare plan issue.

bill   April 9th, 2008 2:31 pm ET

Huh….I think by now we all understand that your LYING!!!!!

Greg, NY   April 9th, 2008 2:31 pm ET

Whoa! So you mean even after being married for years, you guys still have differences?

Sooo, Obama listening to his Reverand and disagreeing on some points with him is bad, but you listening to your husband who is closer than your pastor is ok.

Hillary supporters, you heard it straight from her. Her husband has little influence on her, so why would Obama's pastor have influence on him?

Larry Buchas   April 9th, 2008 2:32 pm ET

She's full of it. They're trying to have it both ways. Bill & Mark Penn negotiate free trade and she speaks against it.

Hillary, you can fool your people most of the time. Trouble is, you're not fooling most of the rest.

Sharon , Seattle   April 9th, 2008 2:32 pm ET

Hillary obviously didn't talk free trade with her strategist Mark Penn. That would have been far more important than discussing it with her husband.

Dan   April 9th, 2008 2:32 pm ET

This article spells the great city of Pittsburgh without the "h"….it's been a long time since we've seen something like that…

AJ   April 9th, 2008 2:32 pm ET

Sen. Clinton is the one that needs to be elected. Obama will be a disaster while Sen. Clinton will oversee another decade of peace and prosperity.

stephanie   April 9th, 2008 2:32 pm ET

Elizabeth Edwards endorsed Hillary's Healthcare Plan. CNN focus on the issues of healthcare, economy and energy, and see who is the better candidate.

Dems, let's kiss and make up!!

Political Jonze   April 9th, 2008 2:33 pm ET

So married couples don't agree on everything, however Pastors and clergy are considered lockstep?

don   April 9th, 2008 2:33 pm ET

naaaaaaah, I don't believe that. If Obama is like his pastor, can't be different than his pastor after 20 years in the church, how can you have different views than Bill?

Oh, I forgot, only if it's to convince the voters to go your way.

Keep Going Hillary   April 9th, 2008 2:34 pm ET

Obamaniacs are so NASTY - makes me think they ALL grew up in hate-filled churches

Disbelief in Pittsburgh   April 9th, 2008 2:34 pm ET

Is this another Hillary lie? What can we believe from this politician?

Hillary-ious   April 9th, 2008 2:34 pm ET

Hmmm, then why is there so much video of her praising NAFTA in the 90's?

Flip, flop, flip, flop, flip, flop, flip, flop…..

Mcpoke   April 9th, 2008 2:34 pm ET

Wait…doesn't she complete a "joint return" on her taxes with Bill?
Did she not know where that $800, 000 came from and why?

Just how much longer does she plan on insulting the intelligence of the American people?

Michael Guinn- Ventura, CA   April 9th, 2008 2:34 pm ET

I'm an Obama supporter, and I agree with Hillary on this one.
Stop hating folks! We're all Democrats!

Jack   April 9th, 2008 2:35 pm ET

I agree, t5hey are different people, and people liked Bill for a few good reasons. Hillary on the other hand…..

Harrison   April 9th, 2008 2:35 pm ET

If this is true, then all the Hillary fans should stop using Bill to reference how the economy will be once she is in office

voice that matters   April 9th, 2008 2:35 pm ET

How can we believe you Hillary when you champion NAFTA DEAL you documnet proved it.

Oh elizabeth supported your health care plan.

You guys are rich, not knowing how poor people manage their lives you should go down to their level for better understanding.
They simply can't afford it period Elizabeth open your eyes and ears
You can not force people to purchase healthcare plans that they can't afford.

Stick your mouth out of this issues, if it will work it would have worked for your Edward.

I know Rich people always support richer people. You guys made millions of dollars from law firm suing government fabricating laws, lies to get your cases won. I know you don't care about people who couldn't survive cancer surgeries like you. Oh! you think they don't like to live, yes they like to survive like , but they don't have money to buy expensive health care.

Thank you very much, please as a person you have all right to support whoever you desire. We pray for you and other who suffer the same disease cancer.
You should learn to support someone who is new and not the same old folks that do the same stuff and expecting different results.

fred   April 9th, 2008 2:35 pm ET

here's the deal. why do people continue to say that an Obama/Clinton or Clinton/obama ticket would be a dream team. Hillary has consistently stated that Obama would not make a good president. However, The vice President needs to be able to step in and take over in case the president cannot do the duty. so, lets think about this. If Hillary somehow wins the nomination and choses Obama as a running mate thenwe no her to be a lier and only looking out for her best interest. Because how can you claim over and over again that Obama is not ready from day One to be president to saying oh now he could be president. She would prove that she is lying only to get into the White House. Sorry to say this but Hillary is only using the joint ticket in order to steal the nomination. Wake up Hillary supporters and get some common sense.

Veronica   April 9th, 2008 2:35 pm ET

So, why can't people get it through their heads that Obama and Rev. Wright are two different people?

Brendan D, Niles, IL   April 9th, 2008 2:35 pm ET

If Hillary is her own person, why does she continue talking with such longing about the easier times we had under her husband?

I supported HRC because of Bill   April 9th, 2008 2:35 pm ET

Hillary, now you find it convenient to distance yourself from Bill. In the first place you were riding his coat tail and your candidacy is based on his credentials.
Now that you're running on your own person - and you have none - you can forget about my vote and millions of others that have been hoping Bill comes back to the WH.

The truth hurts   April 9th, 2008 2:35 pm ET

Ok so if she is so different, then why are HRC supporters attaching her to the Clinton years as president? Prosperity and Peace were Bills years - right, not her's? Let's examine her record as a New York senator - my bad her record is horrible as a NY senator. Disagree - show me facts.

Cynthia   April 9th, 2008 2:35 pm ET

If you believe that I have some swamp land in Alabama that I want to sell you.

Karen   April 9th, 2008 2:36 pm ET

Right, I really believe that. Especially since on any important issue in Bill's White House, Bill would say, "run that past Hillary."

Cornel   April 9th, 2008 2:36 pm ET

did he tell you about monica and all the other relations????

Cayman Islands   April 9th, 2008 2:36 pm ET

Great I am glad there is a lot of open communication between the Clintons. They should be discussing their retirement plans as there is no way they are getting back into the Whitehouse.

I am sure you could retire to the Cayman Islands where your tax shelter is waiting for you!

Eric   April 9th, 2008 2:36 pm ET

Her and her husband talk about everything huh….how about that 900 pound gorilla over there in the corner…still talk about her?

bill from pa   April 9th, 2008 2:36 pm ET

She is her own person. The person that put Mark Penn in charge of her campaign, fired him, then let him stay on. She's a true leader, she brought peace to Ireland, dodged sniper fire, and can feel the pain of that poor person in Ohio that didn't have the 100.00 for medical treatment. She's a legend in her own mind.

NO MORE CLINTONS OR BUSHES.

Dave   April 9th, 2008 2:37 pm ET

Sorry Hillary, we don't believe you. You are in deep deep crap for this one. Our labor unions in PA is 800,000 strong!!! We will have the final word.

dethier   April 9th, 2008 2:37 pm ET

I don`t see how Mr. Obama would want to be on the same ticket with Mrs. Clinton after the things she`s said about him. These Clintons are nasty. I certainly have lost my respect for her.

Alex H   April 9th, 2008 2:37 pm ET

Yeah, but here's the difference. Dubai ring a bell??? Bill makes barrels of cash while you stand the high ground for political means??? I DON'T THINK SO! It doesn't work that way! You two are a team and you're not fooling me! You can't have it both ways!

If we're going to criticize Michelle Obama about her supposed lack of patriotism then we're going to criticize Bill for his lobbying and crooked deals. It reflects on you too!

fred   April 9th, 2008 2:37 pm ET

You tell them Hillary!!

You are going to be a GREAT PRESIDENT IN 2009!!

Hillary 08!!

Jason   April 9th, 2008 2:38 pm ET

8 years of Bill's presidency counts for her experience but he's policies that failed do not. The more you talk, you angrier I get for taking us Americans as fools.
Just go away.

PJ in NJ   April 9th, 2008 2:38 pm ET

ok, just give back the $800,000 that your husband took from the Colombians . . . . . oh yeah, I forgot, you're using it to finance your campaign.

Walt   April 9th, 2008 2:39 pm ET

How about Mark Penn or Wolfson? They work in your campaign, and share Bill's views. So Hillary, if you are your "own" woman, and you "are" the one running for president, not Bill, then denounce and repudiate their opinion on the Colombian trade agreement, and immediately discharge them from your campaign.

suzy   April 9th, 2008 2:39 pm ET

TO HRC, it's over babe……
how old are you????

spyturtle   April 9th, 2008 2:39 pm ET

If " the history of suppression and targeted killings of labor organizers in Colombia" changes, will Hillary support the Dubai port deal then?

Wisconsin for Obama   April 9th, 2008 2:40 pm ET

Yes Clinton, we want to believe what you are saying but I dont think you would have believed if it was someoene else in your shoes. McCain is also has a different attitude than Bush so is Obama with his surrogates. You are running a campaign of smear so it is hard for anyone to see if you are being honest or not. Were it that it is Obama in that situation, you would be all over the place like a chicken wanting to lay eggs. Now, do us a favour and stop lying. You are only saying this to get votes.

melikeyhill   April 9th, 2008 2:40 pm ET

yeah right,i dont trust the clintons, this is another trick and spin they are putting out there to confuse voters!!!

melikeyhill   April 9th, 2008 2:41 pm ET

they will say and do and spin anything to win!!!

James   April 9th, 2008 2:41 pm ET

As you did with Mark Penn, tell him to bolt from the campaign. A lot of hypocrisy here. When you were the first lady, you nodded as Bill campaigned for free trade. You gave thumbs up to NAFTA. Now that you're campaigning for the Democratic Party presidential ticket, you want to distance yourself from Bill. And you want Americans and a dippy immigrant like me from a Third World to believe you. Hillary, you're very cunning. Two weeks ago, you said one can't choose his family, but can choose his/her preacher. This was in reference to the Jeremiah Wright controversy. You anticipated Bill's fraternizing with proponents of free trade would be blown out. What a clever preemptive strike! You can't fool all the people all the time.

Kevin   April 9th, 2008 2:41 pm ET

Hello People,
Do you not see the writing on the wall. Bill sold advanced services based on his wife becoming president. Hillary and Bill owe the American people nothing, but they do owe some rich/powerful people so who do you think will benefit next year.

Wendy   April 9th, 2008 2:41 pm ET

Hillary is, once again, the best person for this country. What people don't seem to understand is that it's ok to change your mind on things once you get more information. She may have been in agreement with NAFTA early on, but as things came to light that showed our country did not strongly benefit from NAFTA….as it currently stands….she changed her mind about it. So what! Most people change their minds about things once they realize it's not working very well.

I'm glad that she will publicly acknowledge that she and Bill do not agree on NAFTA….but she will be the one running things and not him. I like Bill, despite all of his flaws, but he won't be the one running the country.

b-liberal   April 9th, 2008 2:41 pm ET

It seems a very complex concept for the over-simplified rants and raves but Hillary is her own person. Good for her. Although sexist attitudes and nay-sayers will still babble about 'billary" - you do know that was the cry of the ultra-right wing during the Clinton administration. I wish the average voter was smart enough to know the difference.

Hang in there Hillary - you are winning in electoral votes - remember November!

Just Imagine   April 9th, 2008 2:42 pm ET

Hillary has alwyas been her own person and would make a great President. Now if only the men for men only club would step up to the plate and vote for her - not to mention all the African Americans that always liked her and have gone Obama's way out of guilt or pressure would be "your own person" like Hillary - this could turn out to be the best election ever.

Imagine everone voting for the person they really want!!!

MW Los Angeles   April 9th, 2008 2:43 pm ET

She's a liar!!! Is sure is convenient that she picks her top strategist who has the same views as her husband but not her??? HELLO PEOPLE WAKE UP, SHE ONLY FEELS THIS WAY NOW BECAUSE SHE WANTS TO BE ELECTED INTO OFFICE!!

Give me a break!   April 9th, 2008 2:43 pm ET

Okay now I have to believe this fairytale from the Clintons. She is even throwing her own husband under the bus now..lol

Too much drama for me to handle

michael, ny   April 9th, 2008 2:43 pm ET

Uhm…., you have different attitude than your hubby. Ok!

Oh wait, didn't you say "it takes another Clinton to clean up the mess"?

John   April 9th, 2008 2:43 pm ET

Noticed she did not answer the question if she talked to Bill about it. She answered a different question by saying "we talk about everything." I'm sure there are plenty of things they don't talk about. She avoided the issue.

ProudIndependent   April 9th, 2008 2:43 pm ET

Do you really believe that Bill is not going to be involved in setting policy. How does it look to the rest of the world when the President is going in one direction and the "First Man" is actively supporting another direction. This woman doesn't have consensus in her own household. She can't even convince her own husband to support a viewpoint. How can she convince Republicans and the rest of the nation. Forget about reaching across the aisle. You need to reach across your own dinner table first.

OBAMA 08

David in Illinois   April 9th, 2008 2:43 pm ET

She's her own woman! She has put her own special twist on how to lie and deceive the voters. Nice going, Hillary. Remember people: Carl Bernstein, who wrote the book on Hillary, called her a "serial liar." Bill Safire of the NYT, a respected journalist, has called her a "congenital liar." It's not like these are unsubstantiated charges.
As far as the "endorsement" from Mrs. Edwards, uh, that's not big news. Both Hillary and Mr. Edwards are on record as favoring mandates — which are dead on arrival in Congress no matter how much of a majority the Dems have. Remember that thing called the filibuster?
Obama has the RIGHT solutions for America.

Voice   April 9th, 2008 2:44 pm ET

Will both you and your husband answer the 3am phone too? How would you split on this one?

honkey white guy from cali   April 9th, 2008 2:44 pm ET

there are some Hillary supporters in here that really need to open there eyes to what a bunch of lies she is all about. I think what your seeing in the democratic party is much like in the republican you have your right wing conservative Christians on one side and people like john Mc Same on the other. In the Democratic party you have those extreme progressive liberals like Obama and then you have the ones like Hillary who really are neither republican nor democrat they just use the party to there on devices when need to weed these people out of the party! and get back to what we really stand for no more Clinton Lies!!!! Bye Bye Baby and you wonder why Obama is not paying her any attention he knows she will lose same as the rest of us it is only time! and with who he is bringing in the party we don't need the backstabbing, lying,two faced democrats like these any longer time for a stronger party and stronger America.

Go Obama 08

Bill - Pa   April 9th, 2008 2:44 pm ET

Thanks for looking out for us, Hillary!

This candidate has the "guts" to deal with America's everyday issues. Do you want SOLUTIONS to real problems? Vote Hillary.

Charisma fades; substance endures.

Bob   April 9th, 2008 2:44 pm ET

LIAR, LIAR, LIAR!!! We are seeing another of her color. Cameleon as she is. PENSYLVANNIA is around the corner and she is fighting for her victory. After that, what? BILL AND HILLARY IS ONE and she will definitely DECIEVE those who cast ballot for her.

Just look at her face. Desperation every single time. She is the worst camouflaged politician I have ever known.

Jim   April 9th, 2008 2:44 pm ET

Hillary…………you are joke. One thing about the Clintons, the jokes will be abound for years, however, their "residue" will collect dirt for generations to come.

Deb, IN   April 9th, 2008 2:44 pm ET

This just shows she cannot be swayed by anyone. She will stand firm on her policies and beliefs and will not give in to pressure!!!!!!

Hillary is my President!!!!!

McCain 08   April 9th, 2008 2:44 pm ET

Has she hired George Orwell to replace Penn?

Hillary's double speak is endless. She wants to credit herself for every aspect of the past Clinton Aministration, except those disasters–NAFTA, her failed attempts at health care revision–that actually speak to who she is and what she stand for.

Enough lies. It's time to move on.

t   April 9th, 2008 2:45 pm ET

Thats fine that she think differently than her husband but he is a former president that cant keep his mouth shut. HOws this going to play in the oval office?

Gerard   April 9th, 2008 2:45 pm ET

When did you disagree with him on this one Hillary?
Oh yaaaa, this morning……..opps..

How did you disagree?
Honney, this NAFTA was so good until Penn quit. Because of Pannsylvania, I should disagree from now…just beween you and me, it is a good trade agreement though honney…..

shiiiiiiiii………Who say SNIPPER???

arthurW from Virginia   April 9th, 2008 2:45 pm ET

Well.. Penn had to resign over this issue… what will she do with Bill -
finally a good reason to divorce?

I am joking of coursey; all these aids falling on their own swords has been a bit too much.

kathleen retired Professional w/woman for obama   April 9th, 2008 2:45 pm ET

This woman will say anything!!!! Everything that comes out of her mouth is a lie.
Bill Clinton pushed for Nafta and pushed for Columbian Free Trade
agreement and Hillary is saying she had nothing to do with agreeing
with it and in the same breathe she says she is "experienced'" because
she "helped" shape the nation!!! Does Hillary think Americans are
crazy like her, or dumb like her. Why now, does she not agree with
Bill. This woman is a pathalogical liar.

Jenny Sprowl   April 9th, 2008 2:46 pm ET

Hillary, Please just let it go!!! How many times do you think you can fool people. It is just another pile of B.S. like you always say. If she wins and goes to the White house we are all in big trouble. She says Penn is gone but he is still there with her. And the sniper fire story..I almost bought that one but I saw the light when the truth came out. If I want to cry like the Hillary people I could always say no Hillary, I will vote for Nader. But unlike the Clinton people I will not cut off my nose to spite my face. Now they want to drag up The Wright Issue again. Is that the best she can do? How about, Hillary, Whay have you stayed with youe cheeting husband so many years? He can't keep it in his pants and you can't keep the lies from coming out of your mouth.

Please just give it a rest already. I used to really like you.. I am ashamed for ever being so stupid and blind. I am now Behind Barack Obama all of the way. You have always known and aproved f Whit Bill does with free trade deals. You knew what Penn was doing. You were all for NAFTA. And you still are. You just keep trying to cover it up so you can call yourself a winner. Forget it, Forget you..

ProudIndependent   April 9th, 2008 2:46 pm ET

Do you really believe that Bill is not going to be involved in setting policy. How does it look to the rest of the world when the President is going in one direction and the "First Man" is actively supporting another direction. This woman doesn't have consensus in her own household. She can't even convince her own husband to support a viewpoint. How can she convince Republicans and the rest of the nation.

Jot   April 9th, 2008 2:46 pm ET

Lanny Davis is right, Obama needs to explain more about his paster "Wright". He used a speech about race to cover up the whole story. He was baptized by Wright, we don't know what his religion was before then. Obama come clean you will spoil the chances of the Democtratic party to win the presidency if you are the nominee. Republicans have your pictures in the church waiting to show up with you and the Wright in the church saying God D..,,America. Wake up people press for answers

pj   April 9th, 2008 2:46 pm ET

this is SUCH a staged issue. this is ALL to prove that she was against NAFTA even though Bill was pushing it.

open your eyes, dont even believe a word the Clintons say, its all their political game.

For the love of this independent   April 9th, 2008 2:46 pm ET

How can you convince congress about NAFTA and CAFTA when you could not and cannot convince your own husband and former top campaign strategist (now advisor).

If your so opposed to NAFTA and this Colombia free trade issue then WHY is Mark Penn still involved in your campaign at all? Your husband who also strongly supports what you claim to be against is still campaigning for you? If your campaign supporters and such continue to judge Obama by his FORMER reverand then please explain the difference you are doing. They are quite the same except for one small factor the word FORMER meaning in the past tense…

Tiffany J, Cinci   April 9th, 2008 2:47 pm ET

… "we talk about everything."

Is that so? I seem to recall a rather large snafu that I'm pretty sure Bill never mentioned to Hillary…

I don't trust either of them. Bill outright lied to the entire nation, repeatedly, under oath, on live TV. Why should I believe him now? Hillary seems to conveniently misspeak about things that only a looney would not be able to remember correctly. Not to mention that she turns her back on voters after the tallies come in. Greed, corruption, misleading, backstabbing, blatant lying, attempting to ride both sides of an argument, and twisting of the facts. That's all you will get from this delinquent pair.

I will move out of this country if that woman gets elected. I sincerely distrust her THAT MUCH.

Don't vote for Hillary.

Karen, TN   April 9th, 2008 2:47 pm ET

I don't believe for one second she feels any differently about this than he does. But even if she did, the fact is he WILL be in the White House with her and will have a lot of influence as her husband AND as former President. A lot of people ARE voting for Bill when they vote for Hillary no matter how many people want to gloss over that. Remember those bumper stickers that were all over the place when Hillary was running the Bill White House that said "Who elected her?" Back then her attitude bothered people. Let's not forget it.

Peter in Canada   April 9th, 2008 2:47 pm ET

Precisely the reason why spouses should be prohibited from running for your presidency!
Anyone who thinks that the influence of their spouse is insignificant, has never been married.
These sorts of questions are precisely why monarchies are a very very bad idea! She can cover for her husband and he can cover for her…truth and America's best interest will inevitably take a back seat to their personal aspirations. Again, if you really believe her opinions on free trade vary that significantly from Bill's you should WAKE UP!

MW Los Angeles   April 9th, 2008 2:47 pm ET

Uh Ohh, Watch Out Bill!!!! Hillary is about to throw you right under the bus!!!!! Ok, that was not fair. In fact, as a strong Obama supporter, I actually understand where Hillary is coming from. Of course spouses disagree with one another from time to time. I think Hillary should TELL THE TRUTH about NAFTA. Why not say that you supoorted public to stand by your husband and that you did not forsee the hurt it would cause the blue-collar workers? Why not say that after it appeared top be successful for the economy you began to think you may have been wrong about your private opposition, but now you see the bigger picture??? HONESTY is what the voters are looking for. Not political saavy and double speak.

Since she's in such disagreement, why didn't she tell her husband to give back the $800,000 he earned from pushing the free trade agreement w/Columbia. She'll do and say anything to win and this is another example of that.

Dave, TX   April 9th, 2008 2:49 pm ET

I don't understand this. If you say that Obama sat in the church where Rev Wright preached, he must have the same opinion, as the Rev. Then it must be impossible for Bill and Hillary to have different opinion, considering that the Rev. and Obama are not even married to each other.

CTC   April 9th, 2008 2:49 pm ET

Two top people in Hillary's campaign and life are for Colombia Trade and she is not.

It scars me that the "Tokyo" Rose" Hillary supporters are still making there comments. Get over it already. Geesh. Get a job. Oh yeah there aren't any.
Hmm wonder why???? Free Trade maybe???

Gullible in NY   April 9th, 2008 2:49 pm ET

Bill made $800,000 working for this Columbian agreement and the best Hillary can say is her and Bill disagree. Do you think any portion of that $800,000 found it's way into that $5,000,000 loan the Clintons made to her campaign? Follow the money…

If Hillary had run a clean campaign I think that an Obama/Clinton ticket would be ideal. Unfortunately now that she has reduced herself to "gutter" politics I don't think she's fit to hold any public office.

Hillary…the only thing that gets me through this primary process, is the knowledge that you will NEVER be president or vice president. The greatest part is that it's all YOUR fault.

Never again.

So let me get this clear. Hillary can live with Bill all these years and they disagree on trade deals? And people talk about Obama/Wright that don't live together? You Clintonians are just so full of it. I don't believe Hillary one bit she is a LIAR. She is closer to Bill than Obama was to his mentor.

I dare Pennsylvania to vote for Hillary! you guys will be playing with the whatever remaining jobs you ever had. This is all lies people, honestly what spell did the Clintons cast on all of you to be following them sheepishly? And you call us bots?

Hillary CLinton has every right to disagree with her husband. This is not at all like Obama and his minister. Obama goes to a racist church that is anti-american. I don't see how you can compare this to Hillary and Bill disagreeing.

Every blogger who throws hate at Hillary while supporting Obama is putting a nail in his presidential coffin. Some of you make me phsyically sick.

One thing's for sure - the Clintons know how to make money. Too bad they're willing to sell their souls to do it, all the while with their fingers in the pie of American politics. They make money because they have the inside knowledge of what's going on in politics.

Those of you who think getting the Cliintons back into the white house will bring back the prosperity of the '90's are deluding yourselves. We have two MAJOR events now that we didn't have then: WAR & RECESSION.

No amount of good time investing can bring us out of the hole we are in now with politics & policies left unchanged. It's time to forge a new govenment, and the Clinton's are niether willing or capable of doing what needs to be done.

It's true that couples disagree, but you are not just any couple. You are trying to be the leader of this country. Hillary, I'm sorry but you tell too many lies and try to bend the rules when things don't go your way. You will not win!

Hillary come on stop playing people. Here comes another lie.
What of the vidoe that show you and your husband when your husband was the president that you supported free trade.
Now you are saying something different so that people will vote for you. Please HILLARY say the TRUTH and THE TRUTH WILL SET YOU FREE. GOD DOES NOT LIKE A PERSON THAT LIE. If you say the truth GOD WILL FORGIVE YOU and may people will vote for you because of your truth.
GOD BLESS USA AND OBAMA
OBAMA 08 we need some one like OBAMA.
We are tired of BUSH CLITON. IS the wihtehouse might for you and your husband. Young kids are even saying they want OBAMA.

but Hillary still expects to get full credit for everything good that came out of Bill's White House.

Mike   April 9th, 2008 2:56 pm ET

Hillary and Bill have different points of view. He apparently likes brunetts.

Sue from Ga.   April 9th, 2008 2:56 pm ET

They talk about everything with a wink-wink. If this is what she believes, why in the WORLD would she have Wolfson, Penn and Bill on her staff. This has all the appearnce of a double standarD. She tells you one thing and then the truth comes out. The only reason this has come out today was because earlier this morning in the WSJ there was a report of Bills stance and proof that he was in Columbia in 2005 where he clearly stated that he was for this trade agreement. Had not the WSJ found this article, you can bet your boots the Clinton camp would not be coming out now to publicly say they have a difference of opinion. Watch out Pa. unions and trade workers. You elect her and all your jobs will be in Columbia next! This candidate has no business being the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. I would love to see a woman in the White House, JUST NOT THIS WOMAN.

Who Chopped Down The Cherry Tree?   April 9th, 2008 2:56 pm ET

This just in:

We think Hillary Clinton chopped down that famous cherry tree. It wasn't George Washington, after all. When asked if she chopped down the tree, she said, "I can not tell a lie (today), but did you see me chop it down?".

"Well no," the interview replied.

"Well then, it wasn't me. I think it was Barack, as far as I know".

Hillary and Bill are not liars…as far as I know.

Obama 08

Lisa   April 9th, 2008 2:58 pm ET

Really? how would I know she is telling the truth? She has lied on so many important issues lately, that one no longer knows where she stand. I might jubilating that she is against the whole free trade deal, while further investigations are going on to prove that she has lied….again.
Although it is great to know that so far, or recently, she is against free trade. After all she is still a candidate, and although the odds are against her, she might still become the next president of the USA.
If only I could trust her…

Senator Clinton is well spoken and well qualified. She should be the next president. We need someone capable of bringing this country back to where it should be. Obama is nothing more then an empty suit, liar and hypocrite who has no chance of winning in November. Vote Clinton!!

Clinton: "What do you want to hear? I will say whatever you want to hear! Just let me be president so that I can have the power and make some money. Thanks!"

Oh! The Irony   April 9th, 2008 2:58 pm ET

Great timing Hillary. You better distance yourself from Bill's pro-NAFTA stance and Penn's negotiating. I hate Clinton politics. I would never vote for him, but I think McCain is more of a straight talker than her.

Basically, it just looks like to me a lot of men just dont want a female to run this country, she has faced way more negativity from cnn than obama could do if it was negative about him from here on out, it's sad

Anne   April 9th, 2008 2:58 pm ET

Ummm…haven't I been reading that it was the Clinton campaign rather that the Obama campaign that sent emissaries to Canada? Do I sense a trend here? Why yes, yes I do.

I suppose from Senator Clinton's perspective that the more the waters are muddied the less clearly the voters can see. This is not a position I favor.

She's giving me a headache.

obama 08   April 9th, 2008 2:59 pm ET

Talk about a conflict of interest! This is even worse than Mark Penn dealing with Colombia. If the situation was reversed and this was Obama and his spouse, can you just imagine what Hillary and Bill would be saying?

Danny   April 9th, 2008 2:59 pm ET

I agree with Hillary. My wife and I doesn't agree every things we have differences idea.

I don't think that Hillary going pick Obama to be VP because he not clear about Rev. Wright preacher yet.

Also, I don't think that Hillary want to be Obama VP because he doesn't have experiences to be a President.

David   April 9th, 2008 2:59 pm ET

oh man, do you really think we are going to fall for this? the two of you Illuminati fools have the same agenda.

Mike   April 9th, 2008 3:00 pm ET

It is about time she starts talking about how she is different than Bill Clinton… tired of reading all of the blogs calling her "Billary"!!!

Start judging her on her record not Bill Clinton's record… it is sad that many of you are holding her or even Obama accountable for other people's comments or actions…
