From

(CNN) - Top advisers to Hillary Clinton denied Monday that there was any contradiction between the New York senator’s criticism of Barack Obama for saying all three White House hopefuls would make better leaders than President Bush and her comment several weeks ago that she and John McCain, but not Barack Obama, were qualified to serve as commander-in-chief.

“There’s a difference in the context of how voters will look at a candidate in an election and how the person will govern,” said Clinton communications director Howard Wolfson on a conference call with reporters.

Shortly before the March 4 primaries, Clinton told reporters that on the question of who is best-equipped to deal with a crisis, “I think you'll be able to imagine many things Senator McCain will be able to say” in a general election fight. “He’s never been the president, but he will put forth his lifetime of experience. I will put forth my lifetime of experience. Senator Obama will put forth a speech he made in 2002.”

On Monday, Clinton’s advisers would not answer questions about what she thought of the decision by her husband, former President Bill Clinton, to commute the sentences of two members of the controversial group, Weather Underground. Both had been convicted of violent crimes.

Clinton criticized Obama at last Wednesday’s debate for his relationship with Weather Underground founder William Ayers.

They also dialed down expectations for results from tomorrow’s primary, arguing that Clinton does not have to win by a large margin to stay viable as a presidential candidate. They argued that the Obama campaign’s huge outlay in the state – it has spent more than double what Clinton has – did not come simply because his campaign has a significant cash advantage, but because he was hoping for a “knock-out blow.”

“If Sen. Obama can’t win a big swing state with that enormous spending advantage, just what will it take for him to win a large swing state?” said Wolfson.

Sister, I am sure you can see the handwriting on the wall. Why don't you end this gracefully? Fighting to the end won't be gracious. Be a good sport. End this campaign.

Was it not Hillary who complained about the treatment she was getting from the media? All of her supporters were all over the blogs making comments about how the media supported Obama and were pushing him down their throats. I wish someone had told them "if you can't take the heat get out of the kitchen". Hillary and her supporters have done nothing but whine. Crying on T.V. complaining on SNL...Get over it! You guys twist everything Obama says around when everytime Hillary opens her mouth she proves she is a bigger hypocrite. For all of you that keep saying that you will vote for McCain before voting for Obama, please do it and & shut up already! We raised more money with out you and if you combine Hillary's negative balance to McCain's, we will still be ahead. There are more of us than there are of you and still more coming.

Sam   April 21st, 2008 6:45 pm ET

Hillary is mad because Obama beat her to the punch. That's her job to stick it to Obama. Now she know how it feels.

Obama 08!!!

nitro   April 21st, 2008 6:41 pm ET

I get the idea that Sen. Clinton is the one that is the elitist, by impling that the small states dont count. Every state count around here. If not then just campain in the large states and see what happens. Just like the 3 a.m. add implies that nothing bad happens in the other 23 hours of the day. Hillary get a life.

Lucas Hart   April 21st, 2008 6:29 pm ET

Penn voters will cling their votes and kill this Obama failure!

Vig   April 21st, 2008 6:29 pm ET

Clinton is our girl Friday (and Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday) That phone is ringing at 3 am and it's destiny calling.

Ralph V.   April 21st, 2008 6:28 pm ET

Hillary needs to get over the speech comment and her so-called experience. The only experience that she has is the experience that she makes up!

Watch out for them snipers!!!

Is that the best she could come up with?

Don't believe her false promises! Remeber she promissed to create 300,000 jobs in New York, but ended up with -65,000 jobs lost.

She is just saying anything to get elected. Come on PA's, I hope you are smarter than you appear.

Go Obama!!

Vicky   April 21st, 2008 6:19 pm ET

I am a Pennsylvanian and will be voting for Obama tomorrow, as will my husband. None of us know how the voting will turn out, but it is pretty certain that it will be close. People are starting to open their eyes to Hillary and for some, unfortunately, it's too late to change their votes. I think the ONE thing PA voters should REALLY think about...the fact that Hillary made the statement that John McCain would be more qualified to be president than Obama. So...among other things, she is a traitor to all of us Democrats. There is absolutely no excuse whatsoever to justify the statements she made. That should speak volumes to her true character. Both she and Obama have very similar views regarding the issues. And it's expected that dirty politics will be played by anyone running. She has taken that to a whole new level and people need to realize that. I think we can all agree that we need a change, and a change in Washington. Obama can bring that change....let's give him the chance. I truly believe that if elected, he will be remembered as one of the greatest presidents this country has ever had. Not that it matters, but I am a white 52 year old woman. I have had more financial woes in these past 7 years than I care to mention. I live paycheck to paycheck. My son cannot get medical insurance due to a pre-existing condition. I almost faint at the gas pump when I see how much I have to pay to fill up my tank. I'd say that that puts me in the same category as most folks. Lets give a better life a chance tomorrow!!

cash doesn't matter   April 21st, 2008 6:16 pm ET

It's proven that spending more money does NOT influence the outcome of a vote. There are numerous examples of being outspent and still winning. Voters aren't looking at who has the most money. Voters are looking at a person's character. No matter how much money you have you can not buy charactrer. Barack is winning this election because of his character. Period.

Older White Female   April 21st, 2008 6:14 pm ET

Hillary wants McCain to win in the general. She knows she can’t catch up with Obama now and she’s too old to wait 8 more years if Obama wins. She wants to run against McCain in 2012. She doesn’t seem to care if it means four more years of Republicans as long as she can be President and feed her ego.

Penn State   April 21st, 2008 6:12 pm ET

Awaiting Moderation for eternity because I do not support Obama.

April 21st, 2008 4:06 pm ET
Your comment is awaiting moderation.

"Senator Obama will put forth a speech he made in 2002."

LOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!!! Now that is funny!!!!

April 21st, 2008 4:08 pm ET

Its weird that Obama has fans while Clinton has supporters. The Obamaniacs are really sprung on Obama. It is really cult like.

Interesting   April 21st, 2008 6:10 pm ET

No, Hillary knows that there is more dirt on Obama that even his supporters have no clue about. She has been saying at the beginning that Democrats need to vett their candidates. What do Democrats do, give pillows and say let's just change, hope and inspire people.

Unbelievable. You have Ayers, Rev. Wright, Rezko, Hamas, and all these other connections that have been funding Obama to act as a "revolutionary" and destroy America.

Well Obama will be the result of Nat Turner and Spartacus very soon.

Christian, Tampa FL   April 21st, 2008 6:10 pm ET

At least Obama's telling the truth, AGAIN, and at least he's making an effort at unity.

Interesting   April 21st, 2008 6:08 pm ET

Where is Advisor Rice from Obama Campaign when you need her? Wasn't she the one that Obama, nor Clinton or McCain has the ability to answer the 3 a.m. phone ad?

Janel, St. Paul, MN   April 21st, 2008 6:05 pm ET

I think it admirable that Obama admitted this. It is no surprise to most Americans that all three candidates are better than our current president. As for me, Barack is my first choice, McCain a distant second choice, and Clinton. . .well, I'm hoping she won't be a candidate. What more can I say?

Fred   April 21st, 2008 6:04 pm ET

You go Hillary.. I do believe you are more then qualified to make the
decisions that a president would make based on your experiences
in the Senate and being involved in politics well before your Senatorial
debut. My family and I truly believe that you can do the job for our nation.
We also believe if for some reason , you should lose the Democratic nod
for president that John McCain would be the candidate we would vote for
to fill that void if you are not in the position to do so. It would be the first
time in the history in our family and this family goes all the way up to my
grandfather on down to my voting children that we would actually cross party lines and vote for a Republican for president, because other then you he is the only other one qualified to lead this nation in these dire times we are in.

Sean McM   April 21st, 2008 6:04 pm ET

YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY CORRECT HILLARY!

It had better be you and Mc Cain on the November ballot...at least we know NEITHER OF YOU will sell us out with a wink or the finger!!!
What a low life Obama really is!

kristine   April 21st, 2008 6:01 pm ET

i really hate how cnn...is always treating Hillary wrong..obama is a cry baby who couldn't even handle another debate he can't even handle questions coming at him..obama wake up you and wife really don't like our country you don't wear our pen....you deal with rev sharpon three times a week who is so racist....we don't need someone like you running our country

Elizabeth   April 21st, 2008 5:58 pm ET

I am so glad that other people are seeing how decivefull Obama is. Hillary You are going to win. We love you

ratgurl   April 21st, 2008 5:57 pm ET

Reading the responses by the readers over the past few days, I see an OVERWHELMING support for Obama. I, too, support Obama and have dug into my wallet 3 times to prove it. It seems what America is saying is "we're not gonna take it anymore!" We deserve a new option, and that option has made itself available through Obama.

We don't expect perfection or miracles, we expect to have a say in how our government works. We expect accountability. We expect our Senators, Representatives, and even our President to be looking out for AMERICA FIRST, everyone else second.

Americans are notorious for their generosity the world over, but with the country in its current state of disgrace, we can barely feed & house ourselves. We will lose our reputation as a generous donor because of the corruption of government over the past 20 years.

So now we shout CHANGE. Now we demand change.

Vote Obama

Oh, I forgot that was just a "vast, right-wing conspiracy".

Sorry!!!1

California Voter   April 21st, 2008 5:53 pm ET

Don't forget that both Florida and Michigan will be voting in the general election. If you were a Florida or Michigan voter wouldn't you think twice about someone who did not try to get a revote in your state. Since neither candidate has the ability to win the requisite number of delegates I say let the superdelegates decide using their judgment as to who would be most electable in November. Since Obama feels as three candidates running would be better than Bush, I will definitely vote for McCain if Clinton is not the democratic candidate for President. In the end it's character that counts and he has failed to show that he is not a follower of Rev. Wright and all that he believes in. I do not want to have a "non-negotiable commitment with Africa" as his church members and pastor all support and I do not want an angry President and First Lady!

Debby   April 21st, 2008 5:53 pm ET

Well we will see if Obama's spending will get him the win tomm. If he can't win the big electoral states which will be crucial in November then his goose is cooked. McCain will sweep them if Obama is the nominee.

let's get real folks   April 21st, 2008 5:52 pm ET

I used to love the idea of Hilary Clinton becoming the first woman President. But after the attacks she launched, she inadvertently made me look closer at Obama. After all, you don’t attack someone you don’t fear.

I liked what I saw and now support him fully. For those of you who use the experience issue, I’ll name three other presidents with less experience than Hillary Clinton before taking office:

George Washington, Abraham Lincoln and JFK.

Now, Who would you call at 3:00 in the morning?

MM   April 21st, 2008 5:51 pm ET

PA please vote for Obama! End this primary now please please please - I can't stand hearing her anymore!

MM   April 21st, 2008 5:49 pm ET

In response to Jay who keeps asking if Obama fans have a life because he keep seeing them on these different sites - at 2:30 in the afternoon! Any Jay, what is your job that allows you such freedom?

JAX, Florida   April 21st, 2008 5:49 pm ET

I BELIEVE HILLARY CLINTON KNOWS SHE CAN'T WIN, IF SHE CAN'T CONVINCE THE SUPERDELAGATES TO GIVE HER THE NOMINATION. IF SHE CAN'T, THEN SHE IS DOING HER BEST TO BURN THE PARTY BECAUSE SHE WILL BE JUSTIFIED IF OBAMA LOOSES. SHE CAN SAY, I TOLD YOU SO.

THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY IS BLOWING IT BIG TIME. THE DNC, THE SUPERDELIGATES, THE REPRISENTATIVES IN HIGH OFFICES, AND THE VOTERS IN THE PRIMARIES.

Stevo in PA   April 21st, 2008 5:34 pm ET

Keep spending Obama. That what the $million plus donors want. Win at all cost except for mud throwing. The Billiary-BushMcCain camps are envying over what is possible in your camp.

After PA voting is over I hope Rendell/Nutter can reunite the state!

A CANUCK   April 21st, 2008 5:34 pm ET

Clinton knows she can't win so she's trying to destroy Obama's
character with her nasty kitchen sink strategy.......but it won't work!!!!Obama will win and take Americansdown a DECENT path. He will be an HONEST president and bring DIGNITY to the White House.
God bless Obama.

Stevo in PA   April 21st, 2008 5:30 pm ET

Obama must be a threat because Billiary-BushMcCain is throwing everything including the combo sinks at him. Surprisingly, he's raising more money from a great amount of donor than them all.

PA. Vote Obama.

All votes should count,
only big states matter
in the end, superdelegates make final decision

Yea, that's hillary for you.

Perhaps McCain will place hillary as VP? after all, we got McCain and the republicans against Obama, plus the 2 Clintons and the pimped out daughter goin against Obama, and day by day Obama is getting better and better.

You can't stop him.

Mark, Vancouver, WA   April 21st, 2008 5:16 pm ET

Hillary is truly the epitome of the problems with politics – she seems to have no conscience whatsoever. It is these tactics that have caused so many people to abandon the political process. I fear for what may happen should she ever be elected president.

hawkeyy   April 21st, 2008 5:15 pm ET

hilary is a politically skilled individual and i am sick of her political correctness....this country needs fresh direction which obama personifies

Linda of Atlanta   April 21st, 2008 5:11 pm ET

These people have no integrity and they think Americans are stupid. I cannot believe that I used to admire and respect Hillary Clinton. There is nothing they will not do or say. That is scary to me and will be scary to other nations as well. A win for Clinton will be a huge loss for our nation.

Mary from Blauvelt   April 21st, 2008 5:11 pm ET

I am so tired of Hillary and can't wait until Obama is the official nominee. She and Bill have turned into pathetic shells of their former selves (and I was a big time supporter of both of them). Maybe she and Joe Lieberman can form a ticket.

Shawna   April 21st, 2008 5:10 pm ET

Once again a failure to be upfront and honest with the American people. This is why she is seen as negative, never willing to admit the common decency in people unless it is politically benefiting her campaign. Obama has no problem giving someone respect this is why is picks up votes from across the isle. I suspect that current republicans that are going to be up for reelection are going to start endorsing Obama also once we get to the general campaign and they realize that they are on the losing side of this debate.

Joe Bloggs, Haiku, HI   April 21st, 2008 5:10 pm ET

aaah! hillary! what a shame! you have successfully tarnished both your and bill's reputations (though he did help much himself) in just a few months of your selfish campaigning – not to mention what you have done to the dems' chances in November! and for those of you who accuse Obama of lies, hypocrisy etc, my guess is you are mainly dittoheads trying to prolong this nomination process. Certainly, Obama and his supporters have started to respond to Hillary's kitchen sink strategy with some zingers of their own. But let's be honest. If not for Hillary's shameless selfish tactics – aimed to further her career at the expense of everyone else – we would have had a clean and honorable Dem campaign all the way through.
And to think, I used to be a Clinton supporter. But don't worry – I would NEVER vote for JOhn McGoo!

Dori in AZ   April 21st, 2008 5:10 pm ET

Hillary is the worst kind of liar – very accomplished and sans conscience, a chameleon who can don the mask that best suits what that audience wants to see and hear. Quite the illusionist, but lacking truth and substance.

She manages to continue to fool some people into supporting her.

Amazing in this day and age of intelligent and readily available info, and our ability to verify facts and separate out fiction.

Plain scary.

Xavier, Saint Louis, Missouri   April 21st, 2008 5:09 pm ET

Bottom-line: You will never get the truth out of the Clintons and Hillary will say anything and do anything to win. She has no honor, dignity or respect for the Democratic Party. She preys on the uneducated people of America because they do not have the knowledge or resources to find out just who Hillary Clinton is. She has to be the sorriest excuse for a Politian I've ever seen!

Hillary Stop it now !
There is more at stake in this upcoming election than your ego.
The only slim chance you will get the nomination is to destroy Obama. But the odds are heavy against you. What will happen to the Democratic party after your "Republican" style campaign falls short ?
What about all the youth support for Democratic party if you steal the nomination by back room votes of Super Delegates? The youth are the future!
To the Hillary supporters is getting your favorite candidate the nomination more important than a Democrat winning the White House, or the future of the Democratic Party ?

Molly Weasley   April 21st, 2008 5:04 pm ET

applecrispbetty   April 21st, 2008 5:03 pm ET

Hillary, start using logic. Earlier, you said McCain was more qualified than Obama. In last Thursday's debate, you said Obama could be elected ("Yes, Yes, Yes"). So, obviously, you think all three of you are OK. This is exactly what Obama said. Your lack of logic fools certain demographics. It doesn't fool me.

BROWN   April 21st, 2008 5:03 pm ET

HOW CAN HER CAMPAIGN CRITICIZE OBAMA FOR HIS STATEMENT, WHEN SHE SAID " HER AND MCCAIN BRINGS A WEALTH OF EXPERIENCE AND OBAMA BRINGS JUST A SPEECH. " IT IS SAD THAT THE CLINTON CAMPAIGN HAS TO SIDE WITH A REPUBLICAN JUST TO TEAR DOWN HER OWN COLLEAGUE. BAD STRATEGY AND HER NEW STRATEGIST IS A JOKE. HE WAS CHEWED UP SPIT OUT ON MEET THE PRESS.

J.T. Jackson in Michigan   April 21st, 2008 5:02 pm ET

I can't seem to understand how some of Hillary Clinton's supporters will spin everything to be favorable for her. She made a derogatory statement in regards to McCain being a better candidate then Obama but when Obama says all three would be better then Bush that is somehow a worse statement then she made saying a Republican would be better then her Democratic rival. That is ridiculous. I am so sick of the double standards that her BROKE campaign keep using to attempt to discredit OBAMA. I support OBAMA but used to have respect for HRC now after following this campaign closely all respect has been lost for her. She can't keep her staff or finances in order but expect us to believe she can run the country better then him who has been successful in both of those areas. Give me a break she needs to quit now!!

joe   April 21st, 2008 4:57 pm ET

I used to love Mrs. Clinton deeply because of her husband and i even felt sad for her at monica lewinskye scandle. Now I understand what Mr. Clinton had been through. Probably she stayed in the marrage to to use the name Clinton.

For your part in the lie U.S. soldiers continue to commit suicides bidding farewell to their patriotism.

Your pantsuits look like they were designed by Mel Brooks from Spaceballs. Saddle up Annie and take I-95 right back to New York. Fellow Pennsylvanians let's send Hill the Shrill home.

Paul   April 21st, 2008 4:53 pm ET

Obama is right again.

McCain doesn't see any problem with our occupation of Iraq. That makes him like Bush. But the difference is clear between Bush (who managed to avoid deployment to Vietnam) and McCain, who has seen the horrors of war first-hand. That's bound to give McCain better insights in approaching the war... just not as good as the Dems who have had enough of this war already.

Now I think to myself who is this woman. She is not ready on Day 1. She is not ready for John McCain.

Clev   April 21st, 2008 4:46 pm ET

Hillary has the audacity to criticize Obama for saying "that all three candidates would be better than Bush" and then she has the audacity to say that it's not the same thing when she several weeks ago said that Mccain would be a better Commander and Chief than Obama!!

Come on Hillary supporters, are you telling me that she won't say anything as long as it swings her way. You have proof right there. Search the other titles when she said it.

I am sooooo very tired of all this negativity that has Hillary has turned this campaign into. I was once really happy that we had two candidates that would debate the issues that are affecting us. Now I don't want to turn on the tv because Hillary has started this cat fight. Just like a female!!!

Let's be real most supporters that are for Hillary either have a gender identification problem or race identification problem. Either way in their eyes Barack would never have had their support. Let's really be real people!!

Cheri   April 21st, 2008 4:46 pm ET

With this most recent political ad (the one with all the ..oooohh so scary crap) I am wondering if a Hillary presidency might not resemble more of the same. She is looking an awful lot like a republican down there in the gutter.

S.J.Y.   April 21st, 2008 4:24 pm ET

Clinton is spinning down the drain and is desperate to grab on to anything or say anything to save her campaign. A persons character flaws are more evident in how they handle defeat than victory. Obama

She lost me weeks ago when she told me that my state and my vote were not important and should not be considered. Every week since has been confirmation of that instinct.

Bridgette   April 21st, 2008 4:07 pm ET

Maybe the Clinton's were never master politicians. Maybe we just gave them way to much credit. Because right about now they are looking like some lost idiots. I mean they went in PA, with cockiness because she had such a big lead and made this like this was it she was going to blow him away in this state and now that he has caught up with her they are trying to down play the state.

In the infamous words of William Jefferson Clinton, " give me a break, this is the biggest fairy tale ever".

Didn't Hillary declare that Obama could defeat McCain? Seems to me she's trying to slip in through the backdoor and retract her statement. So, Hill, which was the lie this time. Can Obama beat McCain or not?

Matt   April 21st, 2008 4:03 pm ET

Wow. Hillary's experience equals being FIRST LADY!! That means she goes to luncheons and...and...and...absolutly nothing that would make her any more capable to direct a war. She is insane and will stop at nothing. Obama is a wolf in sheeps clothing? How? Give me one good reason other than he gives an amazing speach. Hillary supporters are the ones who are brainwashed!

Oh! The Irony   April 21st, 2008 4:02 pm ET

Hillary's left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing.

DAN   April 21st, 2008 4:01 pm ET

Obama would also have to explain why he decided undemocratically not to count MI and FL. Big mistake my friends, liike McCain would say. It's over for Obama he's too much like Bush, 2 hippocrites that pretend to be good when they are ready to do anything to win, even if that means abandoning 2 very important states. This time people will remember and will not forget the arrogance of Obama and Bush

William, Oklahoma   April 21st, 2008 4:00 pm ET

The main line for the fall campaign is to tie mccain to the failed policies of the Bush administration. The Obama machine shot itself and the democratic party in the foot again. Would some one give him some political sense?

YBLN7   April 21st, 2008 3:59 pm ET

“If Sen. Obama can’t win a big swing state with that enormous spending advantage, just what will it take for him to win a large swing state?” said Wolfson.

----------------–

Well asked question–direct, simple, and easy to understand.

Bayou Joe   April 21st, 2008 3:58 pm ET

the end is near. obama will win today and lose to mccain

Bridget   April 21st, 2008 3:58 pm ET

Hillary doesn't have lifetime experience as a governing person. She's as experienced as Laura Bush. Is Laura Bush qualified to be President?

Locutus of Borg   April 21st, 2008 3:57 pm ET

To Hillary Clinton:

RESISTENCE IS FUTILE. YOU CAMPAIGN, AS YOU HAVE KNOWN IT IS OVER. FROM THIS DAY FORWARD, YOU WILL SERVICE OBAMA...

Richard   April 21st, 2008 3:56 pm ET

“He’s never been the president, but he will put forth his lifetime of experience. I will put forth my lifetime of experience. Senator Obama will put forth a speech he made in 2002.”

haha so true

Obama is just talk !!!

Monroe   April 21st, 2008 3:53 pm ET

Clinton supporters appear BRAINWASHED.

John Adams   April 21st, 2008 3:53 pm ET

After this is all over, it would probably be a good idea for Hillary to leave the Democratic party. She has sold out, and laid in bed with the republican party. After she bows out, she won't be able to be elected as dog catcher.

Can't wait to see OBAMA get sword in... Then the healing starts....

Phil Newton Murphy, Oregon   April 21st, 2008 3:53 pm ET

Obama 08

Carolina   April 21st, 2008 3:53 pm ET

Great response from President Hillary!

If Obama applied for the job of President at any ANY blue chip company,
they would turn him down..... NOT ENOUGH EXPERIENCE.
Yet he thinks he can run for Pres. of the United States and handle it.
No Way!
GWB did that – and look what we have!

Tired of W, OH   April 21st, 2008 3:52 pm ET

Do the math, HillLIEry supporters. The only thing she's accomplishing by staying in this race is feeding her own ego and ripping apart the Democratic party. With all of the Republican-style campaigning she's done, maybe she could ask the McBush camp for a paycheck. Maybe then she could afford to pay back some of her debt.

Make My Day   April 21st, 2008 3:51 pm ET

Let PA vote themselves deeper into a hole. My sons are not going to this stupid war so let all the sons of PA go and die for some people that don't give a HOOT about them. 100yrs sounds good to me and if Hillary wins this thing and Obama is voted out I will vote for Mc Same and help give them the 100yrs of hell that they love so much. Obama may be too good of a man to be in charge of this government for them. Go ahead PA make my day. Talk about Cali. all you want but I have never been without a job. You better load up the truck Jethro. No, on the other hand stay there and wait for your jobs to come back, Hillary and McSame has a plan for you. Any of you want to buy the Golden Gate Bridge? Hillary will sell it to you very cheap.

tren   April 21st, 2008 3:51 pm ET

CNN has been providing unbiased media coverage but today is very, very questionable. Why would you only report negatives about obama from Clintons and mccain on eve of pa primary. Is this a conspiracy? If you are going to do it right, give equal share of negatives and positives on each one of them so that the poeple can make a final choice on their own.

Peter in Oregon   April 21st, 2008 3:51 pm ET

Hillary Clinton is clever as a fox...

She's not too clever with managing her campaign's budget... or
by funding much of her campaign with big lobbyist money (that wasn't too bright we must admit)...
She may not be that good on telling the truth... but...
when it comes to political spin, slinging dirt at her fellow democrats, shooting a gun with her grandfather, downing Canadian beer, keeping Mark Penn in their campagin and using Karl Rove tactics...

Hillary Clinton is clever as a fox...

OBAMA '08
YES! YES! YES WE CAN!

Shelley, NJ   April 21st, 2008 3:47 pm ET

First and foremost........fire Wolfson! He is an idiot!

Fear Tactic Again When Will It End....   April 21st, 2008 3:47 pm ET

who in the heck cares at this point?? i seriously don't see how there are any undecided PA voters. With 6 weeks of campaigning, i would have thought everyone would have already made up their minds by now!

this fear tactic of Hillary is just another distraction! Hillary shouldn't have to fear people into voting for her! really sad!

Well, he didn't say McInsane would be better than Her Royal Clintoness like when HRC said McInsane would be better than Obama – she must have been making a commercial for the Rs.

Jared   April 21st, 2008 3:44 pm ET

Shameless. Once this is all over, Hillary can write a best seller on "How Not to Run a Campaign".

jimmy vekmen   April 21st, 2008 3:44 pm ET

FROSTY – YOU ARE AS COLD AS A FROZEN MACKEREL. WOLFSON IS SO FAR ABOVE YOUR LEVEL OF GRAMMAR. YOUR MORON COMMENT DOES NOT DESCRIBE YOU ADEQUATELY.
IF YOU HAVE HALF THE BRILLIANT BRAINS OF WOLFSON,
YOU WILL STILL BE LESS THAN A MORON . EVEN AN IDIOT
WITH HALF THE BRAIN OF A MORON HAS MORE BRAINS THAN YOU.

Chicken Hawk   April 21st, 2008 3:44 pm ET

Wake up people and smell reality. If you really want to determine who would make the best commander-in-chief, examine the campaigns and resumes of Senators Clinton and Obama. Her campaign is in debt, and he has a surplus. (Good management I'd say.) He has more experience as a legislator than she does. (11 years compared to 8) While she was "working" as first lady, he was working directly with the poor trying to lift communities out of poverty. There's a reason Obama has been so successful in such as short time - he's brilliant, charismatic, articulate, and astute. How refreshing these characteristics will be after 8 years of Bush.

Zeka-jones - Ontario,Canada   April 21st, 2008 3:43 pm ET

Hillary is FLAT BROKE, she owes too much, when is it enough – i wouldn't vote for someone who cannot balance her campaign budget, how would she balance the Coutrys budget? speak of being experienced, it's a disgarce for this woman.

Feron   April 21st, 2008 3:43 pm ET

How funny. This coming from the same woman that said "John McCain and I would make excellent Commanders in Chief, the only thing Obama has going for him is his 2004 speech." These words from only about a month ago. Seriously, how could people actually support this woman?

natalie   April 21st, 2008 3:43 pm ET

Hillary fans please wake up. Please end this misery and vote for Obama tomorrow. She is not going to win the nomination. She has too many problems and frankly I am tired of her, Bill, and little Ms. Chelsey. I am ready for change. I want a new approach. I am tired of the same ole game. Hillary has had her chance in the White house. She has failed to run a respectful campaign. She has attempted to drag Obama through the mud and he is still ahead. It has taking the American people several years but Clinton's we are on to your dirty tricks.

I can't wait to see Obama's beautiful daughters walking across the lawn of the white house.

Obama for 08!

Alice   April 21st, 2008 3:43 pm ET

I have to hand it to her - when it comes to the old-style dirty politics, no one does it better than the Clintons.

Carol from PA   April 21st, 2008 3:42 pm ET

I will be voting for Hillary!

Olivia   April 21st, 2008 3:42 pm ET

Well, Obama is at it again......jitterbugging again. Must miss the Ellen show I guess. He thinks it's funny to ridicule and make fun of Hillary on stage to entertain the folks. He's too long-winded and too much of the orator to have run out of words. I think he's just a natural born entertainer. I KNEW IT!

The joker, the pied piper, the new man on the block!
VOTE HILLARY.......VOTE SUBSTANCE!

Antoinette   April 21st, 2008 3:41 pm ET

My pet dog would be a better president than Bush

So in that case, Obama is right. Anyone of them would better, but he is the best for the job

Jay Shah   April 21st, 2008 3:41 pm ET

wow, I hate this women. obama is correct to say mccain is better than bush. It is pretty obvious that Mccain is against tax breaks for the wealthy and he is against earmarks. Two huge differences between him and bush.

again, this women is a witch. She's rude, obnoxious, overbearing, and only out their for her own ambition. I hope this primary ends sooner because I am getting sick just at the mere mention of Hillary Clinton. It just makes me gag.

Obama 2008

Concerned Mother   April 21st, 2008 3:40 pm ET

Intelligent, well informed voters don't vote for Clinton. Shouldn't that tell you something? Don't vote based on the brand name Clinton! She can't win unless the superdelegates overturn the will of the voters.... also... why is anyone still donating to her campaign at all? She has 109 million she can use if she really wants the job, but she knows she has no chance and its not a good investment anymore. She's just hoping she can use the republican attack machine she used to despise to destroy Barack. They would be attacking her, but they want her to win to help their chances in November!

Mark, Tampa   April 21st, 2008 3:39 pm ET

Hillary KNOWS this is not the same as her comment, yet she LIES and claims that it is the same, just for the sake of a few votes. Hillary basically said "McCain is better than Obama, but not better than me." Barack simply said "McCain is nowhere near as good as either me or Hillary, but at least he's better than Bush." Completely different. Hillary did the Tanya Harding move. She intentionally took a position that will hurt Obama if he wins the nomination, and that is just not acceptable. Obama did NOT do that to Hillary, and he never would, because he represents a new kind of politics. Hillary represents the same old BS and lies.

Jose   April 21st, 2008 3:39 pm ET

No offense, but I personally think that's taking the high road if Obama can say that any 3 candidates would do a better job than Bush and it's a little petty of Hillary trying to make something out of the comment. I know it's everyone's last ditch effort but come on now........

The American People   April 21st, 2008 3:39 pm ET

At least he didn't smack the other democratic candidate while doing so. Hillary be gone!!!

Jos/TN   April 21st, 2008 3:39 pm ET

Bin Laden is no scarier than this currrent Bush administration, we Hillary scare us to the polls. how will she bring fuel, food prices to level that is affordable. Bin Laden is no real threat, stop misleading America.

Did we forgot the little comment that Hillary said about Obama? Something along the lines of: McCain and Clinton have experience, but Obama has a speech?

Hillary keeps running the Karl Rowe campaign and when she gets tagged, she cries fowl.
Hillary... the real republican....

funny   April 21st, 2008 3:37 pm ET

The Obama dimwits went crazy when Hillary said positives about McCain. They accused her of sabotaging the democrats.

Now Obama- always several brain cells behind Hillary- copies her lead and likewise gives McCain justified positives. The Obama folks are all gushing with praise for his "honesty".

Hillary was a traitor but Obama is honest.

You are all as silly and hypocritical as Obama. He has easily obamaboozeled you and I can see why.

April in Texas   April 21st, 2008 3:37 pm ET

To Jay... In answer to your question Obama supporters do have jobs and work... You just notice us because there are more of us out there...

Clinton has always been good at critisizing and complaining as I would guess she has gotten alot of practice doing that in the mirror will looking at her own campaign and how its being ran.....

By the way, HILLARY - We WANT TO SEE YOUR 2007 TAXES, PLEASE!!!!

Hillary is the only presidential candidate who STILL HAS NOT DISCLOSED 2007 TAX RETURNS & FILED FOR AN EXTENSION.

Cannot manage her budget, cannot file her taxes in time.

What kind of leadership is this?

Hillary did say that Her or John McCain would be better then Obama not that long ago .

Clinton supporters have selective memory.

Hillary is a two faced liar and I hope all Pennsylvanians vote for Obama and we force Clintion to drop out.

Hillary is really desperate and out of control.

Obama will be the Democratic party nominee.

enomisa   April 21st, 2008 3:34 pm ET

Dim wits

You criticized hillary for her positives on McCain.

Now you praise Obama for being "honest" in doing likewise.

You are as silly and hypocritical as Obama that you all blindly support.

Mack   April 21st, 2008 3:33 pm ET

Hillary and McCain are more qualified to be president then Obama.

Derrick   April 21st, 2008 3:33 pm ET

“If Sen. Obama can’t win a big swing state with that enormous spending advantage, just what will it take for him to win a large swing state?” The arguement is so lame.
Because most true Democrats that voted for Clinton would vote for Obama.
And what is worng with saying that McCain would be better than Bush? That is not saying much at all. It is like your child getting a "F" on a report card first grading period and then bring a "D" home on the next. Better but still crappy.

gdouglas   April 21st, 2008 3:32 pm ET

I agee you do not have to like a person in order for that person to make a good President. No one will ever disagree with you or say you did things wrong if you never do anything in the first place. mrs Clinton may not be the most likeable person but SHE IS THE MOST QUALIFIED FOR THE ROLE OF PRESIDENT. ISNTIT TIME FOR AMERICA TO WAKE UP AND VOTE WITH THEIR BRAIN NOT THEIR HEART. mRS cLINTON HAS WHAT IT TAKES TO MAKE THE TOUGH DESCISIONS I DONT THNK MR OBAMA IS THE PERSON FOR THE JOB I SAY IF YOU WANT A LEADER OF ACTION AND A LEADER TO LEAD YOUR COUNTRY VOTE CLINTON IF YOU WANT HUFF AND PUFF THEN OBAMA IS YOUR MAN

Wayne   April 21st, 2008 3:32 pm ET

It's 3am..and you're confronted with a decision. Do you continue to pursue Osama Bin Laden or do you invade Iraq, a country that never attacked us.

Clinton made a decision. Obama made a decision. OBama made the RIGHT choice.

Are PA voters stupid? We shouldnt promote leaders who make 1 trillion dollar mistakes.

truth   April 21st, 2008 3:31 pm ET

Funny...
When Hillary said true positive things about McCain- the media and the Obama supporters were all over her. Claiming she was making it harder for democrats to win in Nov.

When Obama concedes the same, he is praised by his dim with supporters for his "honesty".

Well then, Hillary was honest first- even if you found it unpopular.

Fact is- Obama has alienated almost all the lifelong democrats; Now it is this voting priority:
Hillary
Write in Hillary
McCain
Never Obama.

Leigh for Obama   April 21st, 2008 3:30 pm ET

I am Canadian but follow this presidential race every single day, the next president has to potential to influence the entire world not just the USA

How I wish my country could have the opportunity for someone like Barack Obama to lead us, now I know how you guys felt when JFK came on the scene, It pains me sometimes to see what the "old school" does to Barack with spin and smear. He is trying to unseat a political machine that has been rife with special interests, lobbyists and good 'ol boys (or women) for many many years. And I see all you people getting behind him and by all of you standing up...you will change history.

It is awe inspiring to watch you the people , stand up, demand change and realize your true power as a nation.

Watching you stand with Obama '08

Bill   April 21st, 2008 3:29 pm ET

Hillary will present to the voters a lifetime of experience dodging imaginary sniper fire and making imaginary contributions to real world diplomacy. Obama will present a lifetime of experience in helping ordinary citizens live better lives. Yes, we live in a dangerous world and I don't want someone answering that 3 AM phone call to possibly send people into harm's way who have made up stories about being under fire and then joked about it.

Frank   April 21st, 2008 3:29 pm ET

Lethalfacts   April 21st, 2008 3:29 pm ET

Hillary Clinton does not have a lifetime, 35 years of experience, nor does she have good judgement of choosing the people around her. Bill Clinton has cheated on her the entire marriage, she probably has cheated on him (to be continued), and if the proper research is done her hands will be caught in many dirty places

Tamika   April 21st, 2008 3:28 pm ET

I especially loved the part of Micheal Moore's (who just endorsed Barak) letter where he pointed out that Barak was too decent you respond to the Pastor Chaos with the fact that when She and Bill where going through "Monica issues".. they called none other than Reverend Wright(as a spiritual advisor no less)..this kind of irony has been going on all primary season and has not been media-plugged or jumped on by the OBAMA camp... so who really is the hypocryt.?.. and who's best at negative antics.. i really hate for this to be a tit-for-tat situation or a nah nah nah nah... but at this point i could care less about Obama's chivalry and promises for a clean campaign..she is using it against him and will certainly steal this nomination just as sure as u can say "I've always been opposed to Nafta!!"//////////LIAR

Hello Mr. Wolfson,
If Hillary cant win big with that enormous advantage of Bill Clinton, Chelsy Clinton and Governer Rendell with his huge democractic infrastructure and machinery, shouldn't she quit?. Lets face it. Hillary clinton is a dead cat. No bounces can misrepresent this fact...

Sen Obama has the big money elite liberals like Soros backing him financially. They are going to want something in return and it will cost us in the long run...

Also, he says his health care plan focuses on preventive care. I think that is good, but will the preventive care office visits be a mandate?

Baby Girl   April 21st, 2008 3:11 pm ET

Wolfson you are as low and dirty as Hillary. Why are you sniffing up a controversial debate about Obama. He was correct so say that each candidate would be better than Bush. He didn't say Hillary by herself. She has already stated last week that Obama could be the President. Now why is she or you trying to say he can't fufill those duties.

You guys like to talk sht and don't have the money to back it up. Barack is not crying because he is fearful of losing only thing he say is may the best candidate win. Hillary on the other hand is whinning her a?? off tring to discourage voters to vote for Obama.

Hillary needs to be a woman of her word, but come November Hell to the Na I will and my friends will not vote for her. She is a two faced no policticing candidate.

Frosty   April 21st, 2008 3:08 pm ET

Wolfson is another moron that's running Sen. Clinton's campaign. He'd be better served if he acknoweledged his candidate's weakness to raise money. She had a 20+ point lead not too long ago. If she had to fight for name recognition as Sen. Obama, she'd be nowhere. Clinton spin....tiring!

Stu Smith, CA   April 21st, 2008 3:07 pm ET

That comment by Senator Clinton was the turning point for me. Obama may not be the perfect candidate, but that comment relatively praising the Republican as a way of criticizing a Democrat rival was inexcusable.

Of course he had to out spend her she was running a 100% negative campaign or lies and mud slinging! If you believed all the stuff she is selling she has 6 home states!

It really is sad that she has as many people fooled as she does! I can not believe some people could be so blind but we shall see tomorrow!

Polls be wrong! I want a double digit win in the right direction.

Hypocrite   April 21st, 2008 3:07 pm ET

Hillary Clinton is the biggest hypocrite I have ever seen. Now, she said herself that she and John McCain were qualified to be Commander in Chief and not Barack Obama. Now all of a sudden, Obama can't say that McCain would be better than Bush? Heck, I think McCain would be better than Bush but that doesn't mean I plan on voting for McCain...I simply feel it doesn't take much to be better than Bush. Hillary needs to stop it.

Shame on you Hillary Clinton. Bill wouldn't have sunk to this level. As a life long Demo I am ashamed to have in our party. You have done more to ensure a McCain win than any of McCain's advisors. The Goldwater Girl strikes again. Please switch parties and create the new dream team because you are a nightmare to Democrat hopes for a new beginning.

REpublican for Hillary   April 21st, 2008 3:05 pm ET

Obama is the "all that glitters" your mama told you about. CNN has constantly gone after Hillary here are some facts. Hillary can win the big states, has already won Florida and Michigan, let's place those popular and delegate votes in Hillary's column and see how close. I changed my registration to unaffiliated this month just to vote in the Dem primary....I will vote the general election for Hillary or will vote for McCain. Obama is no choice. The Superdelegates need to put an end to this and make Hillary the nominee. Quit blaming Hillary for things Bill did, this is now, not then. Times are very different. And...recently in North Carolina I received a call from the Obama camp...I told them I intended to vote for Hillary...two days later, I received another call, same answer and asked them to remove my name from their calling list...I have since received 4 more calls. His campaign cannot even get my name off their list...yet he wants to be our President...I think not....Superdelegates save us now!

the right way   April 21st, 2008 3:05 pm ET

This race has been an eye opener. I first could not decide on a canidate but know my decision is clear. Either you love them or hate them. I think that Clinton represents the old way and Obama represents the new and improved way.

Typical Washington double speak from a Washington hypocrite!

This is what we need to change!

Yes we can.......take our great country back!

Democrats Unite in 2008!

Joe from Virginia   April 21st, 2008 3:05 pm ET

The only thing that will make him win is by seeing Hillary drop out of the race... PERIOD (answer to Wolfson's question)

Just Plain Tired Of It!   April 21st, 2008 3:05 pm ET

Are you SERIOUS!!!!!! This lady (And I use that word lightly) is the queen of double speak! It's ok for her to say McCain is ready to be Commander in Chief, but it's wrong for Obama to say McCain will be better than Bush?? I'm done – I want this thing OVER. She'll never get my vote.

An United States Sailor   April 21st, 2008 3:04 pm ET

You know what the funny thing is? The majority of you wouldn't even notice that after all that he has said since the start of this whole process, he NEVER said "John McCain would make a better president than Hillary Clinton". You people have no idea of how dangerous it will be if you were to put John McCain in the Oval Office. For the sake of the future of our military, please put a Democrat in the White House this November. You have no idea of the damage it will cause if it is otherwise.

Sincerely,
A PO2 in the United States Navy

Dennis   April 21st, 2008 3:04 pm ET

I think Clinton's campaign is attempting to distract the media and votes from the fact that Pennsylvania was a state that Clinton was ahead by, what, 20 poinsts? Now, they have a single digit lead. Furthermore, while Clinton may not have spent as much as Obama, don't think for one second this is an exercise in financial restraint. Clinton's campaign is in the red. She owes more than she has cash on hand. Obama's campaign is in the black, despite his outspending Senator Clinton. Sounds like Obama and his campaign are better at managing a nationwide organization.

Doreen Augusta Maine   April 21st, 2008 3:04 pm ET

This makes me laugh out loud - Hillary must not have any memory at all. Or, as I suspect, she is delusional. Everyone remembers, Hillary, when you more than once complemented Senator McCain so it makes you look really stupid to say these kinds of things. You, my friend, have diarrhea of the mouth. You would be better off to just be quiet.

SayNoToHillaryBillaryCheslary   April 21st, 2008 3:04 pm ET

Hillary clinton compaing is a joke. They are flip flaping last time I check they were saying clinton has to win by a large margin when she was up by 20%, now since the margin is lowered to 5% they are saying Clinton does not have to win by a large margin to stay viable as a presidential candidate.

jj   April 21st, 2008 3:03 pm ET

OH I'm sure Obama people will say it's alright for him to say it but when she said it they called her a republican. She said basically the same thing except that Obama wouldn't be ready. He doesn't have the experience they do. I'm voting for experience and he doesn't have it yet. There is something very wrong when you have to spend the kind of money he did and still not get a run away. Kind of like Romney did. Sure hope it backfires on him to show him you can't BUY THE OFFICE>

Clark Shaffer   April 21st, 2008 3:03 pm ET

illary will put forth an imagined lifetime of useful and productive experience. Experiences and accomplishments that exist primarily in her own mind.
It's amazing, still, that more than 40 years ago we elected a president with far less experience, far fewer capabilities and far less engaged and/or comprehending of politics specifically related to the Presidency. Yet, some 40 years later largely due to the myth surrounding his time in office, Kennedy is still highly regarded as one of the 10 best Presidents of this country has ever had.

Now, looking at the record of Obama relative to Kennedy and the ideals we held in those years, compared to the cynicism we live with today, I'm dumbfounded that anyone can say that "Obama isn't qualified".

I would offer that the cold war experiences Kennedy dealt with were, and to some extent still are, the most illuminating aspects of his Presidency and the wisdom a "young leader" showed in working to avoid what some of his political opponents would have escalated into full scale war.

Personally, Hillary does not possess the mental capability to handle any type of crisis. She will be just as polarizing, just as arrogant and just as wrong in her direction/decisions as has been "dubya".

quippa hip   April 21st, 2008 3:03 pm ET

What hypocrisy!

This posting did not mention how Bill Clinton recently praised McCain as being a moderate.

Calling your general election opponent a moderate? Since when is that smart strategy?

Michele J   April 21st, 2008 3:03 pm ET

Also, if she can't manage a budget that is all for ONE focus (primary/caucus, & General Election)...how can she manage mine!? (USA)

Obama is rude how he spoke to the people of Pennsylvania.

Clinton is more qualified to be president. It is obviouis.

Clinton for president :)

james   April 21st, 2008 3:02 pm ET

john Mccain is geeting support from democrats. thats funny cliton knows she cant win the election against Obama now she turns in to Republican. She's very fake when she comes out on national TV. Mccain is an coce basket he stoped sniffing lines when Bush told him he will be the next president. Mccain doesnt know economics his a war hack. After their done with Iraq, they will go after Iran. Oil, food is on the rise and Americans are going to feel the worst great depression. Mccain or clinton cant stop it becaue they want the special interest money!!!!!!

MD   April 21st, 2008 3:01 pm ET

Hillary should kiss Wolfson every day, (if he stops spinning for a New York minute), for his ability for spinning all of her negatives and making her smell like roses on the surface.

This man is the biggest spinner in the history of American politics. Carl Rove move over!

White male for Obama   April 21st, 2008 3:01 pm ET

Mccain comment by Obama has been criticized again? Get over this Hillary, you were the person who has been campaigning for Mccain since you lost 11 straight states.

" Senator has a life time experience and I have a life time experience, but senator Obama has speech he made in 2002".
She repeaterd this words on many occasion and she has defended it.

2 week ago Mccain criticized Obama for his misdescription of his speech and you Hillary jumped on it supporting Mccain in criticising Obama miscomment.

NOW what are you saying? Obama is always guilty not matter what comment he made, whether it reflect on people anger, truth about how things are going, other people's comment and for not wearing pin.

Hillary before you criticize someone else, check your previous comment whether it is conflict with your stands.
Okay let them showup and laugh a bit.
Oh...I ready about Hillary's debt. Why is she always be the one to fall into debt when she is very rich.
She certainly wants to continues campaign for the presidency , and so therfore she whould withraw her money from the bank to campaign . She kept her money and she wants ordinary Americans to donate for her while her money is making profits.

Fool us once,......fool us twice that is a serious concerns. so if you don't want to be fooled again vote Obama. He has managed his campaign ver well and he will manage the country effectively.
Bless American

This woman has been a nightmare for the American people.
I will be so glad when she is finally out of the race.

Michele J   April 21st, 2008 3:00 pm ET

Senator Obama, spent the money because he has it! Before PA. polls had him at least 20 points behind Senator Clinton.
Ask yourself since Senator Clinton want voters to 'think'..why doesn't HRC have enough money to compete? Did HRC underestimate ALL her opponents?
People make a big deal out of HRC not anticipating Senator Obama to be a real threat...but she was all spent out after Iowa and before 1st Super Tuesday, and ALL Democratic Presidential hopefuls were still in play. So, since I'm thinking, did she also dismiss John Edwards too?

Brian from Fort Mill, S.C.   April 21st, 2008 2:59 pm ET

My prediction is that Hillary Clinton will win the nomination. But in the process, she will become so mean and nasty that Bill will divorce her. A man can only sleep on the couch but so much.

Nora   April 21st, 2008 2:59 pm ET

This takes the cake. As many times as she has eluded to or all but endorsing McCain during debates and stomp speeches. Talk about a hypocrit. And before the Goon supporters jump in to defend, it appears that Hillary spends a lot of time attacking Obama and then he defends but it is amazing how HRC supporters feels that it is Obama who is attacking Hillary. If this is what most Americans think, then we are in for a slow ride to Hell in a Pinto

D.Kimbro OHIO   April 21st, 2008 2:59 pm ET

Hillary you are a joke. If he is not qualified, what does that make her she is losing to him.

Ricky   April 21st, 2008 2:58 pm ET

OK so she didn't say to long ago that McCain and herself were the only ones ready for the position of president?

Bukky   April 21st, 2008 2:58 pm ET

Ohhh a swing and miss from camp Clinton. Obama is pretty much saying ANYONE is better that Bush. the is probably the truest statement mdae so for in the campaign. Clinton said McCain would be better than Obama... that is a slap to every democrat... But hey Hillary already said "screw em"

MD   April 21st, 2008 2:58 pm ET

Whatever Hillary Clinton says now will not change the fact that her lies and negatives ran her out of the race. She can blame her failure on yet another "consipracy" if she wants, but the truth is that she is her own worst enemy.

yeswewill   April 21st, 2008 2:57 pm ET

She is right. Seems like he is interviewing for the VP gig on the McCain ticket. He is a true flip flop.......I see John kerry all over agian

Hillary for president. She has a clear vision.

rumpusgoopus   April 21st, 2008 2:57 pm ET

Yet again, Clinton criticizes Obama for being honest with people. How horrible it would be should we ever elect an honest politician, and Clinton is making sure that will not happen.

Open your eyes!   April 21st, 2008 2:57 pm ET

No Hillary, that's where you're wrong. As you mentioned, you and McCain may have the experience, but so did Bush and look at what old Washington politics have brought us to? Obama will have something to bring to the general election that neither of you have, he’s bringing this whole new movement of every American young and old, of all races and walks of life, (even folks from other countries), for the first time in the longest time taking back their right to have a government that puts them first – not lobbyist or their own interest. Obama will bring change – a refreshing look at the way a country UNITED will run – out with the old corruption Hillary and McCain and in with the new hope Obama!

OBAMA 08, 12!!!!

obama 08   April 21st, 2008 2:56 pm ET

Isn't Hillary the one that said that she and McCain were ready to be president but not Obama? She's such a liar and a hypocrite. Please Penn., put us out of our misery and vote for Obama.

Fran Says   April 21st, 2008 2:56 pm ET

Lifetime of experience . . . Hillary??

WHAT A JOKE!!!

Uhh . . . does that includes changing the White House China pattern??

Bill   April 21st, 2008 2:56 pm ET

Hillary said,"Yes, yes, yes, Barack Obama is qualified to be President." Hillary said earlier that barack isn't, but he'd be a good Vice president. Did that comment mean that he was qualified, but not in her lifetime would she support him? or is she just crazy? Hillary needs to stop counterdicting herself. Write a statement, look at it, let a few of your staff read it. See if it makes sense, look at past statements and make sure that this statement does not couterdict and prior statements, than make your statement. Hillary's campaign keeps saying that they don't have to win, or don't have to win by wide margins to remain in the race. Does she know that she is not leading the race? Does she remember that a large win in Pennsylvania was going to show the super delegates that she was viable as a candidate? Her finances, her train wreck comments, and her arguements about winning more electoral votes make her look dillusional. The Democratic states will take the Democratic candidate and elect them. Barack is carrying non traditional states. Hillary is behind in the money department, behind in the delegate count, left tying in imperialism, the cold war, and terrorism in an ad, to what avail? Her opponent has over 1 million people who took their money out of their pockets during a recession and financed a campaign. I believe that America has spoken with their pocket book.

3.Colomibiea trade( Bill recieves $800,000 from the goveerment to promot the trade , their money is funding their campaign! Mark Penn who is CEO of lobbyst firm working with the goverment for free trade deal, he still works on her campaign as advicer!)

4. the Clinton impleachment

Mick   April 21st, 2008 2:55 pm ET

I wonder how many random pointless comments the CNN monkeys... errr... interns will approve instead of this one. They're young and gullible so they're all behind Obama, especially since CNN has all but endorsed him for the nomination. Only 1 out of 5 reader comments are allowed to benefit the competition. How's that for an unbiased media.

ForObama   April 21st, 2008 2:55 pm ET

So, let's tear down the other Democrat, and lift up the Republican for Comander-in-Chief, but remind voters that this comment had context. Can you twist a comment anymore than that?

Pennsylvania for Obama   April 21st, 2008 2:55 pm ET

Hillary Clinton and John McCain cannot do anything for America right now. They've been in the Washington Bubble for too long. Their judgment is off. Obama is able to see the big picture. He's fresh, untarnished and without guile. That's what America needs right now. America is in for a downhill slide if McClinton gets in.

Robert in Toronto,ON   April 21st, 2008 2:55 pm ET

So let me get this straight....

* Clinton supporters are denying any contradiction in Obama's saying all three are better than Bush, but when Clinton said that her OR John McCain are better qualified because "it's in a different context"
RIIIIIIIIGHT.........

* And Obama can't answer the tough questions on William Ayers, but when asked about pardons by Bill Clinton to Weather Underground they pull a "no comment"

UH HUH.

I mean...honestly – how on Earth do you justify or try to spin comments like this?

Any Hillary Clinton supporter is ridiculous. You cannot be serious if you think for one second that she would do a good job being President of the United States.

Ready for Change   April 21st, 2008 2:54 pm ET

Obama just doesn't seem to be able to win a big state no matter how much money he has to spend. Tough problems need tough solutions, not whining or throwing money at the problem.

Dood   April 21st, 2008 2:54 pm ET

Informed people already know that Obama is a wimp.

Whether you support Clinton or McCain, they're not wimps. The Obama crowd is in for a tough Summer considering the whining they're doing already.

It's not like it's going to get any easier, folks. You're just proving the pioint on how Obama isn't ready to play on this level.

Kevin   April 21st, 2008 2:54 pm ET

If McCain is qualified to be president, according to Hillary, then it follows that McCain would be better than Bush.

Mona Luv   April 21st, 2008 2:53 pm ET

I am very disappointed with Hillary Clinton. I use to highly admire her for her strength and determination. These last few months I have seen a side of her that makes me cringe. I thinks it's unfortunate that she got desperate and decided to go on the severe negative side. It is unbecoming of her and I believe in the long run she would have done much better. Out of her desperation she has made mistakes regarding her own experiences to the point you don't know when the truth or a lie is going to come out. I wish I could take my vote back but I cant. She would definitely be my last alternative to vote in the general election if it wasn't for McCain.

Ready for Change   April 21st, 2008 2:53 pm ET

Ok that's pretty funny Hillary lmao.

I noticed there's no mention from the Hillary Camp as to the huge double-digit lead they had coming into the month of April.

Pam   April 21st, 2008 2:52 pm ET

Time and time again, Hill and Bill both have consistantly touted John McCain.

Fact, Barack Obama has run a respectful campaign. Take for instance the debate that people are saying that he lost. Take a second look at how he defended his (D) running mate during the debate while she stooped to throwing everything she could at him.

Just a sample of of the kind of 'CHANGE' we need in the WH.

The Democrats version of the swaggering Bush.

how can her campaign even compare the 2 comments,.....

its not rocket science, anyone knows that a baby will be better than Bush

But Clinton endorsed the republican opponent over her fellow democrat

i have honestly and sincerly lost my respect for her....i was not one of those poeple who hated the clinton no matter what they did, and was happy with EITHER nominee...and I still do not hate the clintons, for her husband did good things

but I can honestly say I am saddened by her campaign, and by her husband

PEACE TO THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY!!!!!!!!! IN 08!!!!!

truth   April 21st, 2008 2:48 pm ET

I do not care what Hillary says or does any more. Just as long as she wins.

It is so clear that Obama is the worst presidential candidate ever.

I just pray that his exposure continues and can have an effect although the media delayed in questioning him and revealing his lies, his contradictions, his false promises and his hypocrisy.

I have been blogging in support of Hillary Clinton and Ralph Nader for quite some time, but this is ridiculous. To what extent am I (or other bloggers) will be willing to show loyalty to Clinton when she continues to violate every conceivable ethic. I'm at a point where I just want the best candidate to win. And that candidate seems to be Barack Obama.

More fear tactics? Ugh!!

More about Hillary's vote for war in Iraq: 21 of 50 Democratic Senators voted against the resolution. That's 42% of Democratic Senators who Hillary did not join in voting against the authorization. However, there was something else Hillary did not vote for. She did not vote for the Levin amendment, offered at the same time, which would have caused the president to return to Congress one more time before deciding to invade Iraq.

Furthermore, belying her support of the wars in the Middle East – late last year she voted for authorization of action against Iran. Here we go again....
