Blitzer: Clinton told me she's in it until the end.
Blitzer: Clinton told me she's in it until the end.

WASHINGTON (CNN) - On this day after Hillary Clinton’s landslide victory over Barack Obama in West Virginia, I sat down with her in Washington. We had a wide-ranging interview on several substantive issues, including the economy, gas prices, the war in Iraq, and her race for the White House. “We’re going to finish this process,” she said. “I still believe I’d be a better president and the stronger candidate against Senator McCain.”

But it was a very personal matter that sparked a more emotional response from Senator Clinton. I asked her about her daughter Chelsea and the amazing work that she has been doing for her mother on the campaign trail. I was CNN’s White House correspondent back in 1993 when Bill Clinton became president. Chelsea was then a little girl. But now she’s a grown woman.

I asked Senator Clinton what goes through her mind when she sees her daughter working as hard for her campaign as she does.

“It’s one of the most incredibly gratifying experiences of my life, as a person and as a mother,” she replied, her eyes beginning to get moist. “I get very emotional. She is an exceptional person, and she’s worked so hard, and she’s done such a good job that I’m just filled with pride every time I look at her.”

It was such a very human and touching mother-daughter kind of moment. She may be a tough politician and a real fighter but she’s also a loving mother, and that came through on this day.

Watch me interview Senator Clinton at 4 and 6 p.m. ET on The Situation Room.

I am a true 150% Obama supporter, but I do believe that the tears were real this time. It's very easy for a loving mother to get choked up about her child, especially when her child has been so supportive on her behalf. Come on guys, stop dissecting everything, and let's come together...PLEASE!

Democrat '08!!!

I think everyone needs to stop picking on Senator Clinton, she is a woman and a mother. Any mother should have a special feeling for her child . No matter what my children do, they are still God sent, and I love them unconditionally. I will always respect Senator Clinton, she has more guts that most of us. She will get my vote one way or another, and she should be the next President of our United States.

Hillary Clinton for President   May 14th, 2008 6:02 pm ET

Chelsea is a smart young woman and a hard worker. Hillary Clinton should be very proud.

Mat   May 14th, 2008 6:01 pm ET

I don't want a president who will cry when she talks about how hard it is to be on the campaign trail, or who gets misty eyed when talking about her daughter!

This is a race for our President, not a paget queen!

Is she going to get misty eyed when she has to pick up that phone at 3am or when she address the nation on Mothers day? For someone who can be such a hard fighting, low blow punching nominee how does she just turn on the tears – at the best times?

Wake up Billary fans, it's all a lie and you're loving it

its over....not just for hillary clinton but for the democratic party...howard dean will go down in history along with nancy palosi and harry reid as loosing the election of a life time....come november the republicans will be dancing in the street...

stop the madness   May 14th, 2008 5:57 pm ET

So she needs to SUCK IT UP we don't want to see another tear from this woman except maybe on her way out!!!

Hillary supporters I am sorry, but this woman brings out the worst in me I despise the way she plays on people's emotions to gain what she wants when it is proven she is heartless and so is her daughter and husband, but you already know this surely you have researched them before supporting them and their heartless corruption may be acceptable to you, but I can't recieve it. She knows even as she is speaking she CAN NOT, WILL NOT WIN, but is once again in this to misuse her supporters by misleading them so that they will send more money to repay herself. To me this is wrong!!

efrem   May 14th, 2008 5:56 pm ET

Since John Edwards endorsed Barak Obama, does his 26 delegates go into the Obama column.

m.procope   May 14th, 2008 5:56 pm ET

Why do you sound like an infomercial for Mrs.Clinton?

faye, NV   May 14th, 2008 5:55 pm ET

Yes either one at one time would have been better, until Hillary showed her true self. Over indulge in selfishness and conceited ideas about herself.

Once I was a Clinton fan, but lately I've seen and heard things from her that is native and hurtful. To think that only the white vote count when every vote is needed to win. For my house hold a brid will do for us.

stephen   May 14th, 2008 5:53 pm ET

Hey Wolf...do you guys ever feel abused. Hillary finally agrees to an on air interview with you and Obama preempts her with the Edwards endorsement...which becomes the focus of the show. Now, does anyone feel that is a coincidence?

alice2Fresno,CA   May 14th, 2008 5:52 pm ET

I am just NOT MOVED ONE INCH with any show of emotion from Hillary. She is so untrustworthy, such a phony, and further just more of her crap, just to much of a fake. Sorry Hill you'r not creditable & really don't you think you need a reality check, and then GET OUT.

Marie Ritland   May 14th, 2008 5:51 pm ET

Can Wolf B please stop interrupting his interviewees? It's worth the few seconds of pause by showing a little respect for the one being questioned and the audience.

KE   May 14th, 2008 5:51 pm ET

Thanks Blitzer.

But ignore other noises!
Don't let the big boys and the media and the Obama clan stop the voting process.

Vote Hillary 2008!

Hillary or McCain 2008 election.

Jane L.   May 14th, 2008 5:50 pm ET

Hillary Clinton has raised a fine daughter, and she has a right to be very proud of her.

But no doubt some idiots will refer to this small emotional moment as Sen. Clinton's attempt to get sympathy or votes. If Obama did the same, he'd be praised to the hilt for being such a fine father. It's very difficult for a strong, intelligent women to win. I'm afraid our wounded country is missing a rare window of opportunity to have a woman in the white house who would probably be the most capable president in our history.

Marisol   May 14th, 2008 5:50 pm ET

I'm sitting here reading some of these comments and I'm thinking "and they think she's sick." There are some really nasty people in this country that are honestly beyond help.

Jeff D, South Bend, IN   May 14th, 2008 5:50 pm ET

Sure, just like crying in New Hampshire. Real touching, being manipulated like that.

stop the madness   May 14th, 2008 5:49 pm ET

Has she shed a tear for the deaths of our dead military that she along with McCain and Buch sent to fight a senseless war against a nation that was not a threat to us!! Even one tear, no not so much as an apology! So she can keep those that she so easily shed on a moment notice for herself and her own!! At least she still has her daughter to give her more proud memories in the future ALL the mothers of our young dead troops have is past memories never to add to them. S

Manoj Kamat, North Bergen NJ   May 14th, 2008 5:49 pm ET

Wolf – just affirms that CNN stands for "Clinton News Network"...enough already!!!

nic, bellingham wa   May 14th, 2008 5:48 pm ET

Wolf,
Give us a break...there's nothing touching about a zealous attempt to establish an American oligarchy...or perpetuous race baiting, or "moving the goalposts." This whole thing is ridiculous, and it's not even newsworthy anymore...let's move on to covering McCain vs. Obama, and do our best to forget the name "Clinton."

dorothy   May 14th, 2008 5:48 pm ET

Okay, Okay, I have done my share of Hillary bashing, BUT, I think she conducted herself well in the interview and she no doubt is proud of her daughter as we all are of our children. I must give her credit:

1) It is inspirational to teach people to never give up. Keep fighting, though she needs to fight with a little less negativity in the future. It is her right to see this through to the end and I think that she knows it is the end.

2) She did encourage people not to vote for McCain if she is not the nominee. This is not something that she had to do.

Thus, could we stop bashing for a minute? Barack is obviously the nominee. Unity, unity, unity....that's the ticket!

M.C.   May 14th, 2008 5:47 pm ET

John Edwards who??? Who can spell loser??? One loser endorsing another because the lady won BIG yesterday. Elizabeth Edwards obviously endorses Hillary (Today show program, People interview). Poor Elizabeth. Her only fault is she married an L!!!!!

Ashok Kapur MD.   May 14th, 2008 5:45 pm ET

Dear Wolf,
I am a keen follower and supporter of your program. I agree with your views and fully support your direction. I have sent you a copy of my new book titled "The Fall of a Super Power". The book contains many views of that you have supported. Please take a few min. to read it and I am sure it will enlighten you. I am a handicapped physician and it is difficult for me to go on a advertizing spree. I would love to appear on your show to discuss the book if possible. Kindly acknologe your receipt of the email/book. I am avalaible any time for an interview so please do not hesitate to pick a time when you are avaliable.

Kind regards,

Ashok Kapur MD.

LUCYNA, SEATTLE   May 14th, 2008 5:45 pm ET

I am one of those who was alway making ugly comments about Hillary. I was just angry at her and her tricks. Still, I believe that although she has a lot of dirt in her closet, she does have good intentions to help Democratic Party to win this election and she WILL help Obama. I do support Obama, but I do believe she would be a good president too. LET'S HAVE RESPECT FOR HER AND HER HARD WORK AND STOP TRASHING HER NAME.

Extinct Snipe   May 14th, 2008 5:44 pm ET

Edwards is right on target! Obama for President and Edwards as Vice President! That's an unstoppable combination. It would be a match to CHANGE the course of the country. As peoples of the U.S. we would not be seen as babaric racists (as offered by other candidates) but instead world citizens.

Bill   May 14th, 2008 5:44 pm ET

Simple truth: Obama supporters are way over the top because they know they need to be loud to cover up his many flaws and weaknesses as a potential president. Their style is exactly the same as Rush Limbaugh's, and for the same reason – when you lack depth, you need to be loud. Obama-dittoheads.

Mat   May 14th, 2008 5:44 pm ET

WOW – you're reporting at the same level as FOX these days CNN – "she replied, her eyes beginning to get moist." This sounds more like a love novel than educated reporting – focusing on emotion instead of the truth!

I have no respect for anything you say these days Wolf!

KE   May 14th, 2008 5:44 pm ET

I think Blitzer is trying to show human side of him too.
We the groundlings have easier life in some prospect.

Still, I don't think the Hillary bashing will end.

Woman for a president!

Hillary or McCain 2008!

silence do good   May 14th, 2008 5:43 pm ET

Yeah we wouldn't want a president with actual human feelings. If this is bad, what is the opposite? And is that Obama?

Sexism in action:
- Hillary cries and show normal human emotion – weak and fake
- Hillary doesn't show emotion – cold and calculating
- Hillary loves her daughter – she's a monster

Sorry folks – just calling it as I see it. Someone has to call out the elephant in the room.

Darrell   May 14th, 2008 5:43 pm ET

wow say something about Obama and they sensor you way to go CNN we know your helping get him elected

Sue   May 14th, 2008 5:42 pm ET

Wolf...Just watched interview with Tom Daschle. Question: Are you auditioning as a future FOX talk show host? Please, please, stop interrupting your guests!! Give them the courtesy they deserve and LET THEM FINISH THEIR SENTENCES!! Had to get that out. I have no respect for host who interrupt constantly.

kathe oakland, california   May 14th, 2008 5:41 pm ET

You white folks are sooooooooooooooooooooo scary. Now a joint Fundraiser? We all know Clinton is broke so this is only to help her pay for her debts – come on we are not stupid here in America!!!!!!!

But, would you do same if it were Obama? You do nothing else with no bias, which caused me to ask question. Clintons can do whatever, say whatever, and there is either an excuse or very few comments but NO, with OBAMA I am surprised you Media don't critize and call him racist for type of toliet paper he uses you accuse him of everything else.

maeinPA   May 14th, 2008 5:40 pm ET

wow...twice on the same ticker page!
Ok...she loves her daughter...and her daughter loves her.
And he daughter took a year off work from her hedge fund! My daughter couldn't do that for me, even though she loves and respects me! She is working two part itme jobs AND going to college for a biology degree. Unlike Chelsea, she will have student loans to pay for 20 years! She pry won' t be taking a vacation...let alone taking a year off work!
I don't mean to sound ignorant...but ok Cnn we get it, she loves her daughter! She is proud of her daughter. Just like the rest of us...'cept for the taking ayear off work, and having no bills to pay! How much of a salary does chelsea get for stumping for mom? How can she afford to take a year off with no pay?
How is that possible for a 28 yr. old?
Ohhh...yeah...she's a Clinton!
Not a blue collar working girl, with no insurance!

Shawn, Kansas City, MO   May 14th, 2008 5:40 pm ET

It’s sad to see the ‘good ole boys’ putting their pride behind a black man, rather a step closer to women’s equality. Furthermore it’s sad to see such misogyny that is still allowed. Do people know that women still get 77 cents on the dollar to Barack’s?

Misogynistic Pigs. I hope with Edwards endorsement he and all the others can go home to Elizabeth/their wives and say, maybe next time sweetie. Even though she/they favored most everything about hillary and her health care plan.

elm   May 14th, 2008 5:40 pm ET

Tears again... Ed Muskie had to drop out for melted snow flakes, and her we have an emotional, hysteric, post menapausal woman crying at every occasion she thinks it will help her.

NO HILLBILLIES in the White House.

Nando, Florida   May 14th, 2008 5:39 pm ET

Why are the Clintons always costing the DNC money, They left us broke in 2000 and now this !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GET OUT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bowen   May 14th, 2008 5:39 pm ET

Give it up, Wolf

She's finished. You're starting to look really pathetic.

Becky   May 14th, 2008 5:38 pm ET

Democrats unite. Let's stop the ugly comments toward each other.

kathe oakland, california   May 14th, 2008 5:38 pm ET

GIVE ME A BREAK.

Another one of Hillary's "moments????" PLEASE, don't insult us Wolf nor you Hillary with this crap – crap crap. Earlier in this campaign, again when you were LOSING, you attempted to get sympathy with so-called tearing up – we never really saw any tears, not even welling in eyes.

You Clintons play every card you can to undermine Obama, try and make voters and ALL hard working Americans forget how divisive, dishonest and sneaky you are – BILL, HILLARY and yea, even Celshi?? who knows I am not her mom so I don't care to spell it correct oK.
I am an OBAMA voter to the very end, tearing up or not Hillary – NOT THIS TIME.
GO OBAMA

HFT in Texas   May 14th, 2008 5:37 pm ET

People – don't fall for that TRICK again. Most of us all feel that way about our children. What makes hers so different?

Terry in New York   May 14th, 2008 5:37 pm ET

Oh please, she's down in the poles and a tear hear and there worked last time. She probably pulled a couple nose hairs out when the camera was on that dingbat blitzer.

D.J. Morales   May 14th, 2008 5:37 pm ET

Hey CNN, I can interpret what a person says,...just report what happens, I'll take on the responsibility of interpreting. Oh!! I forget...CNN is a business...apparently so is politics, just ask Hillary,...or better yet, ask Bill, he knows better than anyone.
.

Bowey   May 14th, 2008 5:37 pm ET

West Virginia have spoken, We want Hillary for president, NOT Obama. It's a fact that no Democratic president has ever won the White House since 1916 without winning West Virginia. That's how important West Virginia voters are.

elm   May 14th, 2008 5:36 pm ET

Not again. Enough of Hil-liar-y's hysterics. Fool me once…… Fool me twice shame on me. Any tears you see are for the $20 million,, oh and by the way Hil-liar-y… Pay your bills, and not with Obama’s funds. He will need those to trounce McCain.

NO HILLBILLIES in the White House. The Lincoln bedroom is not for sale/rent.

Cindy   May 14th, 2008 5:35 pm ET

Not commenting much on the tears... while I'm sure they are genuine, I don't think tears have a place in national politics...

I can see why she is proud of her daughter. Chelsea started the season as a "seen but not heard" campaigner for her mom. It was unfair for reporters to single her out as "pimping" for her mom, since all adult kids of candidates do the same. Chelsea grew up... and nowadays, not only does she speak, but she also defends. She shows good character. I may not agree with her, or her mom... and definitely not agree with her dad... but Chelsea's a terrific woman. IMHO, she's the "best" Clinton.

NEW COMER   May 14th, 2008 5:35 pm ET

So who needs Edwards when you have a daughter like that. Besides Edwards can bring a whole 19 pledged delegates to the Obama total. Hillary will get more than that in KY and Purto Rico.

joywinnebago   May 14th, 2008 5:35 pm ET

It makes me extremely angry to read the vitriolic comments about this genuine reaction to a question about her daughter. This is not helpful to an Obama candidacy. You insult her as a candidate on policy-that's one thing. You insult her as a person, you insult all those–including me–who admire her as a leader of the Democratic party. Don't make me mad that I'm a Democrat. You need me come this fall.

Unreadable   May 14th, 2008 5:34 pm ET

Oh come on. She can choke up whenever she wants to.

lily   May 14th, 2008 5:33 pm ET

what do all these theatres mean ,Mr. Blitzer. Everybody knows that a daughter helps her mother because she is her mother and and to be specific , a daughter helps her mother to be the president of USA .She has a lot to lose if her mother won't be the nominee.
Why do you want to dramatize a certain thing? They want to go back to the White House and it is certainly very sad and catastrophic for them if they see that it won't be possible.
Your words:
"It was such a very human and touching mother-daughter kind of moment. She may be a tough politician and a real fighter but she’s also a loving mother, and that came through on this day."
You know Mr. Blitzer , I think you want to mobilize some tears in the eyes of some whilte color Americans and I think , you yourself won't be very happy if Obama wins the nominee and the presidency. And be sure he will win.

Lilarose In Oregon   May 14th, 2008 5:33 pm ET

I was hoping Edwards would NOT endorse ANYONE!

I wish I had not wasted my time to go see him when he was in Oregon in 2004.

I feel so betrayed.

Yesterday I switched from Dem to Independent.

I will write in Hillary in November.

tammy   May 14th, 2008 5:32 pm ET

I am so tired of these constant Hillary bashing. Even though Hillary has shown us that she's strong and a fighter, she is still a human being just like all of us and she is allowed to show a little emotions.

Lori   May 14th, 2008 5:31 pm ET

Hey, Jeffie in Hampshire, IL: Barack doesn't cry, but he does deceive, con, spin, fake, pose, dupe, and in general win over every gullible person in the country.

Too bad . . . for those of us who aren't so easily fooled.

********************** EVERYONE!! *************************

Please be nice to each other, and respectful of Hillary Clinton.

She's taken a lot of time out of her life to run for the presidency and try to do what she thinks is best for the country.

Name calling and nastiness never won anyone any friends.

She deserves an ACADEMY AWARD FOR HER PERFORMANCE NOT PRESIDENCY OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

this is my first time to vote after i become a US citizen. I am voting for Hilary because i think she is has vision for our nations future. it would be a shame if she wont be able to get the nomination. Obama needs a lot of work to show his substance before i will vote for him

Sarah   May 14th, 2008 5:27 pm ET

If she's so emotional about Mother/Daughter relationships, why didn't she spend Mother's Day with her own mother??? Give me a break about Hillary's emotions. It's all about making women feel for her and, unfortunately, it works with a a lot of them. I'm a woman, the same age as her and I never had any kind of problem in my work or personal life for being one. What women does she talk about who are so disadvantaged because of their gender anyway?? Who are these women who feel so sorry for her because her husband cheated on her? It happens to thousands of women every day and I'm sure they are just as strong as Hillary. Also, she talks about these "uneducated" people voting for her. She must think they are all "stupid" but if she can con them, she's happy. She is a soul-less person.

Get over yourself, Wolf.

She had planned to choke up well ahead of your interview. it had nothing to do with you.

Carolyn   May 14th, 2008 5:26 pm ET

Hillary, I am crying too – because you are such a fake and because CNN is losing all credibility...get off the Hillary bandwagon.

Venus The Super star   May 14th, 2008 5:26 pm ET

It's true and she has every right to to feel the way she does about her duaghter.

Susan   May 14th, 2008 5:25 pm ET

Excellent article, Wolf. You are a superb reporter. I don't think she pushed this emotional moment on you but rather that you pulled it out of her. Good for you. You are fair and honest.
I don't understand why Obama supporters have such deep animosity toward her. Do they really love Obama or do they simply detest Clinton. It is very sad. Either one would be a good president, Hillary the best.
Hillary 2008!!!!

faye, NV   May 14th, 2008 5:25 pm ET

Hillary that was a dumb thing you said, I feel that you begin all the racist comment. You have divided the party and you feel that you are better then Obama, not just as a better person for president but better all around. I feel that you are a racist.

Every Wilson   May 14th, 2008 5:25 pm ET

I do not trust Hillary Clinton, she is a liar, thief, deceiver, charlatan, hypocrite, bigot, divisive, polarizing, manipulator and a strong candidate for racist whites in West Virginia, Ohio, Pennsylvania and other states to be President of the United States. I can see how she will bring the country together now! Her tears, I believe were for real, no more campaigning, no white house, no presidency and no 2012 run because she messed that up too!

Georgia for Change   May 14th, 2008 5:25 pm ET

She should be proud of her daughter. They have raised her well. Now is the time to demonstrate humility and consideration of the greater good. Her lesson to Kelsey now is to bow out with grace, and mend fences for that greater good - Barack Obama's chance to be elected President in November.

Good observation Wolf.

There is absolutely nothing wrong reflecting on the humanity that is rarely seen.

Obama supporters are unkind and consistently have UGLY remarks about Clinton....I will NEVER VOTE FOR OBAMA, because I do not want a President that attract these types of people...including Rev. Wright and all of the others....unify the Democrats how? with people like that are so unkind I don't think so.........

glane   May 14th, 2008 5:21 pm ET

I can't believe how most americans can be shallow. americans voted for bush for 2 terms against Kerry. Now americans are voting for obama – based on his charms and rhetoric speeches. Please look past beyond the appearance. Hillary , obviously has the experience of how to get things done in the white house (she has travelled accross the world and got to see and experience what is working and not working in this country). Her commitment of helping people even from her early years justifies how she wants America to go in the right direction – that is solving the real problems – jobs, global warming, healthcare, education, oil, retirements.....american needs real solutions...

Hillary 08

slim   May 14th, 2008 5:21 pm ET

so ridiculous how CNN wants to play nicey nicey with hillary now after months of completely biased campaign coverage in favor of obama.

here come the no-life hillary haters....

Sherri   May 14th, 2008 5:21 pm ET

It is very good to see how much Senator Clinton loves her daugher. It is also terrific to see the way the Chelsea Clinton supports her mother. That is the way it should be.

I am a strong, dedicated supporter of Senator Obama. That will not change, ever.

That does not mean that I can't be moved by family caring and love when I see it. All of the candidates are trying their hardest. They have put it all on the line and they will all be bruised and battered before this is over. I respect all three (Obama, Clinton and McCain) for daring to try to lead this nation.

We all watched Chelsea grow up. She is a great American daughter and we can all be proud of her.

Go Obama!!!

Shirley, Silicon Valley, CA   May 14th, 2008 5:21 pm ET

I want to know 1 thing, is she goin to be responsible for paying her debt or is the public goin to have to bale her out. I hope not. As far as I'm concerned if she wants to continue to run ALL her advertising should be cash up front. NO MORE CREDIT FOR HER. 10million is already to much debt

Aces full of Kings   May 14th, 2008 5:20 pm ET

ladylove   May 14th, 2008 5:20 pm ET

It is obvious that CNN loves to report every little thing that HILLARY does. Now the headlines for today is Hillary's eyes gets moist and she is emotional. I can't beleive it. It was also reported that she won a big victory in Virginia and it was really a small win if that. How luck she is to be so favored by CNN. Does this mean her daughter qualify for VP of the US now.

I wish my vote would count like yours....from Florida   May 14th, 2008 5:19 pm ET

Democrat   May 14th, 2008 5:19 pm ET

Great interview! If only she was more like this on the campaign trail – she wouldn't have turned so many people off.

I'm for Obama – but I'd vote for her if she won.

And I'm a mother of a daughter – so her reaction was not fake, it was real pride and real love.

Isn't it a bit selfish to waste millions upon millions when it's been obvious for quite a while that it's over? Who and what does such frivolity serve?

The Rat   May 14th, 2008 5:17 pm ET

Who moved my cheese? That is a good book. Sort of like as soon as I get near the goal someone moves the goal posts. Man you have to feel for Hillary. If she doesn't cry she is a hard women. If she does
cry she is too soft to be President. Can't win for nothing.
So now we only have one choice. John S. McCain.

Bob   May 14th, 2008 5:16 pm ET

Come on Wolf, don't tell me you are falling for the tears gig...Surely sane rational people won't fall for that old chestnut again!

I Believe   May 14th, 2008 5:16 pm ET

I actually believe her feelings are real and the emotion is genuine. She's a mom and her daughter is a joy for her. Stop diminishing that with the nasty comments.

I am not a Hillary supporter but she does deserve respect. There has been a lot of sexist crap in this primary and is has been overlooked and race took the front burner.

She has done something that has never done before, she can be proud of that. I give her that. Now it is time for her to quietly, and mean quietly, finish the rest of the states voting and end her campaign.

Jane   May 14th, 2008 5:16 pm ET

Disingenuous

Richard   May 14th, 2008 5:15 pm ET

As usual, Wolf is in the tank for Hillary. No news here.

Bella H.   May 14th, 2008 5:14 pm ET

Only a politician would be so crude and tasteless as to use her child to get votes in an election. The Clintons are truly the scum of the earth.

NickNas   May 14th, 2008 5:13 pm ET

BS

Charlotte   May 14th, 2008 5:13 pm ET

Wolf, don't you know she is not allowed to feel emotional. The Obama-bots will call her names again, as in the past. They will call a brief moment of emotion as major tears. Why is Obama suddenly wearing a flag pin? He wouldn't be pandering now would he? Nah, he's above that

sara michelle b.   May 14th, 2008 5:13 pm ET

Thank you for sharing your first hand account of the moment, Wolf. It is touching and very real.

NY Dem   May 14th, 2008 5:13 pm ET

Very nice.. Indeed, very touching. I wish her well!

Time to unite the party!

Obama 2008/2012!!!

s. chamberlain   May 14th, 2008 5:13 pm ET

Everyone keeps bring up the fact that Florida and Michigan's votes should be counted but there is another large set of Americans who were not even allowed to vote due to the state they reside in. Rules are rules...if those two states are counted, then the registered Independents who were denied this privledge should be allowed to vote. All Americans should have the freedom to vote in the primaries and have their choice counted.

Indy Voter   May 14th, 2008 5:13 pm ET

Wow Wolf! Why don't you just ask her to marry you?

Bobby tray   May 14th, 2008 5:13 pm ET

Sigh. .. . Clinton is like that relative you try to avoid at family functions. But guess who is there right in front of you when you leave the bathroom.

Ronald   May 14th, 2008 5:12 pm ET

Oh please Wolf, your bulge is showing.

Another New Hampshire moment brought to you by Hillary Clinton.

Amanda   May 14th, 2008 5:12 pm ET

Dear Wolf Blitzer

Hillary Clinton is not going to win the nomination no matter how desperately you attempt to change the dynamic by inducing another touching 'New Hampshire' moment.

End of story.

JR Veteran from New York City, NY   May 14th, 2008 5:11 pm ET

Mr. Wolf, Mr. John King, and the rest of the CNN, please continue the good works that you have been doing for the Clintons. They deserved CNN admiration. I don't understand that you all cannot comprehend that it's over for Senator Clinton. Give her any airtime that she wanted to. Pump her like a balloon and make her ego by the size of China. All that won't help. Advise her to leave the race!

Hoss   May 14th, 2008 5:11 pm ET

This really makes me want to rhrow up.

TED   May 14th, 2008 5:11 pm ET

Hillary we will always love ya! But I can't vote for Obama he doesn't represent my view of the great counrtry.

God Bless America, God Bless Hillary!!

We love you soo much for everything you have fought for and stand for!!!!!!

Laura   May 14th, 2008 5:11 pm ET

I hate when she does this! She tugs at my heartstrings and makes me feel guilty for not supporting her.

I am 110% behind Senator Obama and have been for a while now, but I do respect Senator Clinton, and I feel bad for her. I know how long she has planned for this and I think she bears a lot of the blame for running on a strategy of inevitability and expecting a coronation instead of a competitive primary. That being said, it will be sad to watch her give up her dream if she eventually drops out. I hate that we had to choose between her and Obama this year.

show me   May 14th, 2008 5:11 pm ET

yea right we all know hillbillary is an actress and a liar who changes her persona at givin whim

Concerned Canadian   May 14th, 2008 5:09 pm ET

Gee ...I hope the Obama supporters don't come on here too and call Hillary all sorts of dirty names and use all sorts of vulgarity and say untruths about a person they do not even personally know.

What harm has Hillary done to anyone ? Thats right..nothing..I thought so.

Karin   May 14th, 2008 5:09 pm ET

Yes......it is something ever mother looks forward to with their child or children.....That moment that the child and mother can come toghter on the same page working together and looking for the same out come....thats a moment that you can look back as a mother and think about it with much pride in your child ....so .....This is a moment that Hillary will have with her forever.....and what a moment it is........

Sweetie pie   May 14th, 2008 5:09 pm ET

Wow Wolf what a scoop, Hillary loves her kid! If you have nothing to say then don't.

jonny   May 14th, 2008 5:08 pm ET

i cant believe there are TWO articles about how Hillary cried because she loves her daughter. GET SOME REAL NEWS, CNN.

Dems `08!   May 14th, 2008 5:07 pm ET

It was touching, and I think she is a very very strong woman and I admire how much strength she has-this has to be hard on anyone who goes through this.

Obama 08!

Heidi in Houston   May 14th, 2008 5:07 pm ET

Sorry about the earlier sound effects from me, but I truly don't believe her anymore when it comes to human emotion. I've been duped by this once already. I think it was back in NH.

Belle   May 14th, 2008 5:07 pm ET

Wolf,
Thank you for the interview with Senator Clinton.

But I have a question for CNN. Why can't you just take the candidate's words for what they are....the explanations for what they really mean?

Why do you have to call in analysts to dissect every single line or comment?

Do you really believe your viewers aren't smart enough to make their own judgments?

FRANK   May 14th, 2008 5:06 pm ET

GO HILLARY!!

DONT LET OBAMA STEEL THE ELECTION!!

OBAMA STOLE A PAGE FROM THE GOP... HE DOES NOT WANT TO COUNT FLORIDA AND MICH. I THOUGHT THAT ONLY THE GOP DID NOT WANT VOTES TO COUNT..

COUNT THE VOTES!!!

Jean, CANADA   May 14th, 2008 5:06 pm ET

Blitzer..........Let's talk about Politics...leave the Familiy counciling to Dr. Phil.

Hillary a closet bigtot??

Your "comments" have been duely noted and will be recorded for all historians to reflect on in the future....doing and saying anything to win will cost you...

OBAMA 08, 12...the TRUTH

Jason   May 14th, 2008 5:06 pm ET

Not this time!

It's all fake, a well polled and meticulously calculated attempt to throw dust in our eyes again.

Not this time!

CHERYL FOR HILLARY   May 14th, 2008 5:06 pm ET

HILLARY, WE LOVE YOU. KEEP GOING HILLARY
USE WHATEVER IT TAKES TO WIN THE WHITEHOUSE – LIES, RACISM, CHANGE THE RULES, GENDER, WHATEVER.

OBAMA IS UNELECTABLE. HE CAN'T WIN.
SAVE THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY

HILLARY READY ON DAY 1 TO LIE AND CHEAT.

HILLARY'S COUSIN IS MUGABE- ZIMBABWE – THE ELECTION IS NOT FAIR UNLESS SHE WIN.

WOW   May 14th, 2008 5:05 pm ET

wow what an act. What some people do for power. It be very dangerous to see her with power in White House.

Blackwoman, Ohio   May 14th, 2008 5:04 pm ET

Awww I still love the Clinton's !!!

I just cant wait for this election to be over. The media has tried to completely destroy them and I feel bad for Hillary and Bill.

I think she should see it through to the end of the race. She is an incredible candidate and competitor.

RT   May 14th, 2008 5:04 pm ET

I WANT TO KNOW WHAT OUR NOMINEE IS DOING. WHERE IS HE CAMPAIGNING? WHO ARE HIS LATEST ENDORSEMENTS? HOW DO HIS VIEWS ON POLICY DIFFER FROM THE REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE? GET WITH THE NOW CNN!!!!!

Sarah, Florida   May 14th, 2008 5:04 pm ET

IT IS CLEAR THAT HILLARY DOES NOT BELIEVE IN THE DEMOCRACY?

SHE WANTS TO OVERTURN THE PROCESS IN HER QUEST FOR POWER!

POPULAR VOTE–STATES WON AND PLEDGE DELEGATES AND NOW SUPER DELEGATES HAVE SPOKEN!

IF OBAMA WAS IN HER POSITION WOULD SHE WANT THE PROCESS TO BE OVERTURNED IN HIS FAVOR?

Djools from the Netherlands   May 14th, 2008 5:03 pm ET

Do I read a tear in your words too Wolf?

Jimmy VALENTE   May 14th, 2008 5:03 pm ET

M. BLITZER,
I love your emissions and your interventions. I follow all your interviews that you master so well, but please, we have to adjusat our mind by admitting Senator Barak as winner.
If Barak was at the place of Hillary, he will dropped from the race along time ago.
She should admit his experience but she is pretentious, selfish and stuburn

RT   May 14th, 2008 5:03 pm ET

WHY ARE THERE TWO STORIES ABOUT THIS ON THE TICKER???

Capt. Smash, Salt Lake City, Utah   May 14th, 2008 5:03 pm ET

EVEN MORE NEW NEWS FROM: HUFFINGTON POST:

The Obama campaign has announced a "major national endorsement" for a rally tonight at 7pm in Michigan, and the rumor mill is swirling that it is none other than Sen. John Edwards. Time's Mark Halperin is teasing as much at his Web site, with a photo of Edwards and the text, "Ready to choose? Ready to hope?"

Edwards has certainly dropped some hints in recent days. He's chided Hillary Clinton over her comments about race, said he can't figure out how Clinton could ever win the nomination, and even said he planned to endorse the person he voted for in North Carolina's primary, using (it seems) the word "him."

AH   May 14th, 2008 5:02 pm ET

Still grinding the same message. If she's the stronger candidate against McCain, why has she never polled higher than Obama in national polls?

I hope she's sincere about Chelsea, but I'm not buying it. I'm sure she's proud of her, but her tears have always been so strategic. I kind of wish the media would quit reporting on it... CNN has 2 articles posted for crying out loud.

RT   May 14th, 2008 5:02 pm ET

WHY IS CNN STILL REPORTING STORY AFTER STORY ABOUT CLINTON. SHE IS DONE. ITS OVER. SHE'S A "HAS-BEEN". YOU ARE THE ONLY POLITICAL NEWS ORGANIZATION GIVING HER THE TIME OF DAY. EVERYONE ELSE IS FOCUSED ON THE GENERAL ELECTION. STOP KEEPING HER CAMPAIGN ON LIFE SUPPORT. PULL THE PLUG!!!!

She's still losing!   May 14th, 2008 5:01 pm ET

Get off her bra strap please. She's still behind in EVERY way and yet she gets treated as the winner. The media really should stop adding to her false hopes of winning this election.

Chelsea 2020   May 14th, 2008 4:59 pm ET

Wolf,
I think Chelsea do not deserve to leave the whitehouse. It is breaking her mother's hearth.
Maybe if Hillary can't win now, we will vote for Chelsea in 2020.

Clintons-Bushs for ever!

carolyn   May 14th, 2008 4:59 pm ET

I love Hillary as a person and a mom and a all around human being. I'll behind her all the way. I refuse to vote for obama not because he's black ,I just feel that it would end up being another carter presidency. I also think he doesn't have the experience to handle the repubs. They'll eat him up and we'd still end up with the repubs running the country.

tom   May 14th, 2008 4:58 pm ET

MK   May 14th, 2008 4:58 pm ET

Please don't bring emotions into this. It's just not the place. Wolf, be fair, and ask Obama about his family as well.

Damion K. Miles   May 14th, 2008 4:57 pm ET

For anybody who thinks that gender doesn't play a role in this, you're crazy. How many people would have ridiculed a male nominee for crying on national television? He would be considered weak! If a woman cries, she emotional. This country is not ready for our leader to cry in front of the whole world. To paraphrase Tom Hanks' character in A League of Their Own..."there's no crying in politics". Save that for behind closed doors, Hillary. Your husband did some of the worst things that a husband could do to his wife and you didn't bat an eye. But, in this election you've cried at least twice. What is it with you?

george   May 14th, 2008 4:57 pm ET

What a joke. Lets get the tissues yet again. And lets talk about Chelsea but not about who you can't win this race. What a joke Blitz.

mario   May 14th, 2008 4:56 pm ET

hillary we love you , you must be nominee , keep going and superdelegates will support you

4 Hillary   May 14th, 2008 4:56 pm ET

I watched your video, Wolf. Great. Can't wait to see the whole thing on my DVR tonight when I get home.

I know she wants us all to unify. But I'm a die-hard supporter and I can't vote for Obama. I'll write Hillary's name in on the ballot if she's not the VP. I just can't stand Obama AT ALL.

When in our history has there ever been a nomination race this tight? And if there was – did the media and party leaders try to force the candidate out of the race? I doubt it.

Hillary's been treated too unfairly throught this process.

Ardnuas   May 14th, 2008 4:56 pm ET

It's touching to YOU because you are trying to get her elected. When she said the delegates needed to win is 2209.... YOU said NOTHING, you know is 2025!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Obama/Hagel ( I want Chuck Hagel to be VP)

Amber   May 14th, 2008 4:55 pm ET

I LOVE HILLARY CLINTON! And Chelsea for that matter. I am so excited to go home and watch your interview w/ her tonight Wolf. :)

I'm all smiles. She is the most amazing woman! It brings tears to MY eyes to watch and listen to her.

Thank you for not being amongst the Obama-loving, Hillary-hating journalists this year. You are one of 3 that I still have respect for!!! And that hateful, pessimistic Jack Cafferty...he has no place on a show like yours. I often wonder "why" him, Wolf? Moron.

HILLARY 2008 (lovin' you Sen. Clinton)

bash   May 14th, 2008 4:55 pm ET

Booh hoo, Hillary cries–again. Iguess this will buy her a few votes somewhere. In Scranton it was Boilermaker Betty,then she became the paner bear on the back of a pick up truck and we get the warm and fuzzy cookie baker. I know that there are many aspects to each person but unfortunately to me all aspects of Hillary seem contrived and phony.

Steve   May 14th, 2008 4:55 pm ET

It's very nice to know that a tough, seasoned political journalist like yourself, Wolf can also be a man of deep feelings. Good for you for sharing those feelings. Your mom should be proud of you, as well!

jenkins   May 14th, 2008 4:54 pm ET

I'm rethinking my support for Obama.

dz in Austin   May 14th, 2008 4:54 pm ET

This is not an excuse for the Obamanutz to call her names, make fun of her, or try to portray this as a political ploy. Shame on you if you do.

I'm a strong, thoughtful (surprise!) educated woman and I get misty eyed over my children. Not for any policital advantage, or for sympathy. It's pride. I hope you have some in your children. I even hope you children still have pride in you when this is all over.

LR Dallas   May 14th, 2008 4:54 pm ET

Dont' we all have two sides. Her's is just a little rougher than most. Just as Obama has a hard line that he has to walk, so does Hillary. Unfortunately, Hillary can break down and be human. However, how would American react if Obama was to show any real emotion everytime he has to hear all the polls that show americans wont vote for him based on race. I guess it's easier to find humanity in a tough woman than it is to find a little for the african american candidate.

Berat (Pronounced buh-RAHT), Park Ridge, IL   May 14th, 2008 4:54 pm ET

Wolf, you are useless. Why didn't you ask her if she felt like this was New Hampshire when she "choked up?"

Sorry, Hillary supporters, but this is ridiculous. I simply don't understand why she'd tear up, except that here, they might be the real tears of one who is nearing the end of his/her journey. That being the case, she's run a fine, if fatally flawed, campaign, and she's coasting down now to a comfortable 35mph before shutting down the car altogether.

TH   May 14th, 2008 4:54 pm ET

THE CLINTONS ARE FULL OF IT.

gobsmacked   May 14th, 2008 4:53 pm ET

Great she's a human being with real emotions. She still has other qualities that are less desirable. Dishonesty, ruthlessness are a couple that come to mind. Not to mention entitlement...should I go on?

NANITO   May 14th, 2008 4:52 pm ET

I THINK THIS IS ANOTHER DISPLAY OF MANUFACTURED EMOTION. SHE DOES THESE THINGS VERY EASILY, WITH NO GUILT OR SHAME. REMEMBER THAT SHE LIED, WITH A STRAIGHT FACE, ABOUT DUCKING AND RUNNING TO AVOID SNIPER FIRE IN BOSNIA.

Tony Z- MD   May 14th, 2008 4:52 pm ET

Why does she believe that she would? There is nothing to support her claim. She has been in elected office 6 years.

Kristin from Dallas   May 14th, 2008 4:51 pm ET

First of all, I am an Obama supporter, but I thought this was a good interview and I was pleased with the tone.

Mr. Blitzer, I do have one question though, why didn't you jump on her statement regarding the required number of delegates? Senator Clinton said that 2209 delegates were needed to become the nominee as if that were always the number, not 2026 (which includes the new Representative from Mississippi).

Mike   May 14th, 2008 4:51 pm ET

Obama supporters are missing having a great person as Hillary as our president. If Obama had not had backstabbed her and ran against her like he said he would not, I am sure she would have picked him as her VP and I would have voted for him after Hillary's terms were up.

As it stands now, I will never, ever vote for Obama.

not my real name because CNN censors me   May 14th, 2008 4:50 pm ET

Wolf, you know I've watched you for years and honestly held you in very high regard until recently. Your obvious pandering to Clinton disgusts me and I find it offensive. You use words like "crush" and "landslide" to describe her victory in W. Virginia when we of intelligence know exactly why she won. You also know why she won. You're far from ignorant.
Report the truth Mr. Blitzer. It might well set you free.

Tired of W, OH   May 14th, 2008 4:49 pm ET

Seriously CNN. Why do you have 2 items in the ticker about Hillary getting choked up?!? Is it really that news-worthy?

Independent   May 14th, 2008 4:48 pm ET

It was a touching moment, and that was real. However, I do not believe what she said, and I blame her for dividing the Democratic Party. If the Democrats do not win, I will be pointing my findger directly at Sen. Clinton and hew campaign.

Jeff   May 14th, 2008 4:48 pm ET

Come on Wolf, get a clue. She played you just like she's been playing everyone else. HRC doesn't have a sincere bone in her body. I thought you knew better Wolf. You must be losing your edge.

say no to the haters!   May 14th, 2008 4:47 pm ET

Ok Obama supporters. Don't start with all the hate. Give the lady some slack. She deserves our respect just like Obama is giving her. Unless you think he is just being a politician??? It is time to unify and she has called off the attack dogs and so has he.

THANK YOU WOLF. I KNOW SHE LOVES HER DAUGHTER. SHE NEED TO BE TOUGHT IF SHE WANTS TO BE A PRESIDENT . I ADMIRE HER SHE IS SUCH A FIGHTER AND THAT NO MATTER HOW MANY FREE RIDE THE MEDIA GIVE OBAMA AND HOW THEY PUT HER DOWN SHE IS STANDING AND FIGHTING FOR WHAT SHE BELIVES. SHE REALLY WANT TO PUT UP THIS COUNTRY, IS JUST A PITY THAT SOME PEOPLE DO NOT SEE HOW MUCH THIS WOMAN LOVES THIS CONTRY AND WANT TO CHANGE AND WANT TO BRING UP THIS COUNTRY.IT REALLY COMES FROM HER HEART.SHE IS NOT DOING THIS BECAUSE SHE IS A POLICTIAN BECAUSE SHE CARES AND SHE WILL GIVE ALL HER BEST TO FIX THIS COUNTRY AGAIN. I AM SO AFRAID THAT THE DOMOCRAT PARTY GOING TO MAKE A MISTAKE AND WILL NOT BRING US NO WERE.

Moz   May 14th, 2008 4:46 pm ET

I do think Clinton has found the right words for her daughter. Even though things are unclear for her mother, she has worked so much for her mother in hard hard time and she has bright future in politics of this nation. This is my opinion.

Griff   May 14th, 2008 4:46 pm ET

It's a shame! She would make a Dam Good Republican. Still she has made her choice.. Whatever she does in the future.. The Door's will open wide... She is so genuine and sincere..

fontapa   May 14th, 2008 4:46 pm ET

Gee, what a hard hitting substantive question you tossed her there.

"So tell me, Candidate XYZ, how do you feal about springtime, babies, and rainbows?"

What's she gonna say, "nah, I hate the kid, really"???

One might ask what possible reason you'd ask it besides to generate EXACTLY the video-bite moment you did. What did you hope to acheive other than to engineer a "human" moment for her?

Just wondering if you think your job as a journalist should really be about asking rhetorical questions that are designed purely to help the candidate sell themselves.

Sarah, Florida   May 14th, 2008 4:45 pm ET

DOES HILLARY REALLY BELIEVE IN THE DEMOCRATIC PROCESS???????!

SHE WANT TO OVERTURNED THE DEMOCRATIC PROCESS IN HER QUEST FOR POWER!!!!!!!!!!!!

THE POPULAR VOTE HAVE SPOKEN######
THE NUMBER OF PLEDGE & ELECTED DELEGATES HAVE######
THE MAJORITY OF STATES WON HAVE SPOKEN#########

YET SHE SHOULD BE ELECTED BASED ON THE FACT THAT HER SUPPORTERS ARE RACIST; IT IS HER BIRTH RIGHT AND NOT BASED ON THE DEMOCRATIC PROCESS!!

raf   May 14th, 2008 4:44 pm ET

I love how Wolf says they talked about several substantive issues, but then he chooses to focus only on the emotional angle.

Good work, Wolf!

Sharon Minnesota   May 14th, 2008 4:41 pm ET

If Hillary only knew how the Obama people have trashed her, I'm not so sure she would have been so generous in the Wolf interview. She must not be reading CNN's blogs.

May 14th, 2008 4:19 pm ET
Your comment is awaiting moderation.
Hillary needs to read the CNN blogs to find out how the Obama supporters feel about her and her family. She may forgive but I do not.

May 14th, 2008 3:25 pm ET
Your comment is awaiting moderation.
My first choice of a candidate for president is Hillary Clinton but I cannot agree with her that we should support Barack Obama. Realize it or not John McCain is closer to a moderate democrat than she can admit due to her commitment to the democratic party. I, on the other hand am not bound by any party any more. I used to be, sorry no longer.

The democratic party is like humpty dumpty broken and damaged beyond repair. I can't believe that the pundants and the DNC bigwigs are still trying to put it back together before the General Election.

Obama supporters have pushed the democratic humpty dumpty over the edge of the wall of hope and change with their hypocrisy.

Mike from Westchester   May 14th, 2008 4:41 pm ET

There's a light at the end of the tunnel!

Per CNN: Hillary Clinton said it would be a "terrible mistake" for her supporters to vote for John McCain over Barack Obama. “I'm going to do everything I can to make sure that anyone who supported me ... understands what a grave error it would be not to vote for Sen. Obama."

Marlene   May 14th, 2008 4:40 pm ET

In the name of professional journalism, you might wish to make your bias towards the Clintons somewhat less obvious. It just might help repair your damaged credibility.

Darryl   May 14th, 2008 4:40 pm ET

She is unable to tell the truth she lied to coverup Bill Clinton Affair with Monica Lewinski, she lied about travelgate, she lied about whitewater, the Venice Foster killing and now she wants to be honest. I don't believe her....

Mark Anthony   May 14th, 2008 4:39 pm ET

Here we go with the tears and you know what that mean, all the oooooo,aaaaaa,mmmmmmmmm. Here they come, but the most important thing she said in interview was that it would be a "grave mistake" if her supporter voted for McCain in Nov.

Unify the party and stop with this stupid name calling and nonsense!

Come Wolf...remember the questioner who asked "how do you do it" and Hillary pushed out that fake sympathy mess.

Please stay focus and don't get caught in her web. Chelsea has not done anything that any other daughter wouldn't do for her mother.

Give me a break...Chelsea didn't even know how to answer questions from her own peers.

Sen. Clinton said that OPEC gets together to decide how much oil to produce and determine their price. The first part is correct, but the last part is just not true at all. The price of oil, like most commodities, are determined by speculators in the major stock exchanges. Sen. Clinton is too smart not to know this. The oil producers neither determine the price of the oil they sell, nor do they determine the price of such major capital purchases like military tanks, fighter jets, helicopters, etc. That sounds like double jeopardy.

USAF Sr. Airman   May 14th, 2008 4:37 pm ET

Hey CNN, how about some news. No. No news from CNN. Instead they post TWO stories on Clinton choking up.

I hate this saying, but today you have earned it:

CNN = Clinton News Network

Good job CNN for an extremely poor display of "journalism".

Ann   May 14th, 2008 4:37 pm ET

She is the most selfish woman alive. What a disservice to future women who want the Whitehouse. It's over Hill. Roll out with what dignity you still have...

Cold Hard Truth   May 14th, 2008 4:37 pm ET

This person clearly has no shame. As far as the daughter being impressive give me a break. She buckled under the first question pertaining to the Monica Lewinsky fiasco and she has now joined the ranks of liar in the family when she continued to support her mothers lie indirectly when she said nothing to correct the Bosnia sniper fire "misspoke". Chelsea was there and I am sure her memory of that incident was quite vivid. So in essence she kept up the lie which now places her in the same company as good old mom and dad. If you want a taste of what a future Clinton presidency will be like all you have to do is look at the pics of Chelsea at her finest making an appearance at the Kentucky derby in all her fine "elitist" glory.

Linda   May 14th, 2008 4:36 pm ET

Chelsea is an exceptional person to of had the parents she has.

mitchell from arkansaw   May 14th, 2008 4:36 pm ET

we still love you hillary and chelsea ,but,we need you to support our nominee.

Reginald Johnson   May 14th, 2008 4:36 pm ET

So What, Millions of other Americans around the country feel the same way about their children. Hillary gets no sympathy from me and why does CNN always try to make something out of nothing regardless of who the candidate is. I am voting for Obama but I do NOT want to here sympathy stories about him, I want to here about what our country has to do to get back on top again. We look at things in this country like we do cheap gold watches (if it looks real maybe I can fool people).

Debby   May 14th, 2008 4:35 pm ET

Great interview Wolf and good 2 questions from those people. Sen. Clinton is one smart woman.

Joe - Wilmington, DE   May 14th, 2008 4:35 pm ET

I would love to believe the senator's sincerity during this interview(don't get me wrong, I am sure her love for her daughter is deep and undeniable and is certainly reciprocal) but given her track record of contrivance, faked outrage, tears seemingly on cue, etc…this seems another attempt to pull at the voter's heart strings.

It's time to stop.

AC 360   May 14th, 2008 4:35 pm ET

And so....who cares!! You think it is family business.

SusanDemforLife   May 14th, 2008 4:34 pm ET

Let the weeping begin.... we should see a lot more of this as she starts to accept or realize the White House may not be hers for the taking. There are a least five different scary personalities to this woman and I not sure which one the public will see more of as we near close to the June 5th deadline of the primaries.

We will probably end with the more known personality: the weeping nasty vengeful negative democrat we have all seen her revert to over the last 6 months

Blitzer, you are too easily 'touched'. lol

Hilary is one of the best actresses in Washington DC; and you fell for another of her act. lol

Democrat21st century   May 14th, 2008 4:32 pm ET

Wolf you can ask Clinton-how could she tout her experience and electability while her human resource management and financial management of her campaign is in mess and chaotic! Second, does she believe in bending the rules (DNC rules for FL and MI) just for narrow and personal gain?

Charles in Florida   May 14th, 2008 4:32 pm ET

Crocodile Tears at its finest! Give it a rest Hillary, your road trip to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue ends soon. Obama 08′

Dylan   May 14th, 2008 4:32 pm ET

"Touching," Wolf?

I think the word you're looking for is "contrived."

Don't let her fool you.

Independent for Obama   May 14th, 2008 4:32 pm ET

No matter what people have to say about the Clintons, with Chelsea, they've done a helluva job. How many parents can point to bringing up such a wonderful lady while having such a demanding and public careers.

Former Democrat   May 14th, 2008 4:31 pm ET

Thank you, Blitzer.

Now let the Obamabots start trashing her. It's very sad to see the people who support the campaign of 'HOPE' be so hateful to Mrs. Clinton.

She is a mother and I have no doubt she is proud of her daughter. Give her a break, people. You candidate has won; it's time to let it go.

Mia   May 14th, 2008 4:30 pm ET

She's not the monster people make her out to be. The monster is the GOP.

bob from dover delaware   May 14th, 2008 4:30 pm ET

I think its interesting to see children of politicians and even movie stars or powerful people grow up. I wonder what makes them different from their parents. Many don't choose the same paths and others are not as sucessful but it seems like chelsea is doing pretty well.

Dr. Truth, Boston   May 14th, 2008 4:28 pm ET

I'm so touched. Thank you for you service to the US. Now please leave and take you implied insults with you.

Phil From VA   May 14th, 2008 4:27 pm ET

Cry your way out. Please. Stop being selfish. Get out.

J   May 14th, 2008 4:27 pm ET

she makes it even more difficult to support her when she cries. so she's proud of her daughter, and she should be. that's what parents do. but if you want to be potus you look ridiculous if you get choked up every time you think something is really neat. and so then in turn, the usa looks ridiculous.

Unbelievable   May 14th, 2008 4:27 pm ET

Is this your idea of unbiased coverage? Would you gush all over Obama if he "moistened up"? I doubt it, he would be ridiculed as showing signs of weakness. I guess WB is nostalgic about the good old days spent apologizing for Bill when he was in office. Absolutely disgusting, I expect this kind of coverage from Stepanopoulas but not WB.

DJ in MI   May 14th, 2008 4:26 pm ET

I liked the way she ducked the "white-american" question.

ITS NOT 3AM, PLS WAKE HILARY UP FROM THE STATE OF DENIAL   May 14th, 2008 4:26 pm ET

For you wolf.!!!!!Who cares? please focus on winners and not losers
Im not surprised, you show your distaste for Obama when reporting

Robin, Ward Arkansas   May 14th, 2008 4:26 pm ET

Lets play the sensitive mommy card! BS! I do admit, the nannies did a good job raising Chelsea.

Mac in Nova Scotia   May 14th, 2008 4:25 pm ET

Wolf – Is Hillary offering you the press secretary's job? I hope so. That way we will see a lot less of you.

tom   May 14th, 2008 4:25 pm ET

why putting this article twice and just changing title, there is nothing touching about this, she lost what is she still doing in the race. Today it's all about Clinton and her duaghter who cares about them we also have duaghters we love so dearly. 99% of today CNN news is about Clintons, shame on you all the way CNN. We want better news we are fade up of losers

marilyn MD   May 14th, 2008 4:25 pm ET

Wolf, get a grip, Hillary is finish ...... repeat it after me.... now, close your eyes and repeat it again. Obama is goint to be your President.

Joyce   May 14th, 2008 4:25 pm ET

While her tears may have been sincere, she has lost so much credibility, dodging bullets in Belgrad and making peace in Ireland, one can only think they are just another ploy to get more votes – like in New Hampshire. It is truly sad to see this brilliant woman live in such a delusional reality as she clings to a race that is in fact over.

Big Easy   May 14th, 2008 4:25 pm ET

Good job Hillary. The only thing that trumps your strength is your tenderness as a mother.

Hillary 2008. Don't stop running. We will support you all the way to the white house.

Beltway Insider   May 14th, 2008 4:25 pm ET

Is this really worthy of two separate ticker articles? Or even one?

I understand Blitzer's blatant and, frankly, nauseating bias, but no matter how biased CNN is toward Clinton, you have to at some point realize this race is over and you're not doing anybody any good by constantly pushing all this Clinton-pandering BS down our throats.

Obviously, no one is buying it anyway.

sb   May 14th, 2008 4:25 pm ET

Hillary Clinton chokes up, Hillary Clinton chokes up, Hillary Clinton Chokes up. CNN you should add 12 more stories covering the same topic and make it an even 20.

Joe   May 14th, 2008 4:24 pm ET

Go spin your garbage elsewhere Wolf. You are so clearly biased that I don't trust anything that comes out of your mouth, just like Hillary. Quit trying to affect the outcome and report the news. Obviously journalism does not teach integrity anymore.

K.J., Dallas, TX   May 14th, 2008 4:24 pm ET

SD's please, please, please end this. If Sen. Clinton doesn't win the Democratice nomination, maybe she could win an emmy???

OBAMA, 2008!!!

Cory Tapia   May 14th, 2008 4:24 pm ET

wow. how about wolf remove his lips from hillary's behind.

Aaron   May 14th, 2008 4:23 pm ET

The Democrat nominees have all done a great job with getting support from an ever wider support base and congratulations should go to them all for doing that, but the party officials them selves have done a lousy job of handling the process from start to finish and its difficult t to see at times if they are actual supporters of the Democrat party or are acting as saboteurs within it.

When it comes to the missing 178 delegates from the combined Florida and Michigan primaries, and when you reflect that this has came from about 1.2 million voters who actually voted for one of two the front runners. This has still to be resolved (due to the parties own mishandling of events, which is no fault of the voters who took part and took the time and trouble to have their votes placed). As far as the constitution goes its clear that on one has the right to disenfranchise those voters or the votes cast by any legitimate member of the population, and in one way or another votes placed must be counted, in this respect all of the voters in all the Stats have or should have under the constitution equal rights to have their votes counted and on one has the right to say otherwise, until all votes are treated equally its is not correct for the party to try and push the mater under the carpet.

In the past its was shown that it only took 538 votes to decided a Presidential election.! so lets hear all the information and lets keep it open till it is truly finished and a winner is announced that is legitimate, whoever it happens to be.

CNN, Report The News!   May 14th, 2008 4:23 pm ET

Two superdelegates representing College Democrats of America endorsed Obama this morning – but CNN doesn't mention it – but CNN makes an article out of a "touching moment"?

Eli   May 14th, 2008 4:23 pm ET

I quess it is a choking matter for Se. Clinton,. she now has to wait for Chelsey to run before another Clinton can make a serious run for the White House. Moms never want to be beat out by their duaghters!

GL   May 14th, 2008 4:22 pm ET

I knew you couldn't go more than two days writing real stories!!! Even put money on it. Thanks for the $20.00 Wolf. Now I can go buy 5 gallons of gas, or 4 gallons of milk. How sad this has all really become....

Swigg   May 14th, 2008 4:22 pm ET

I didn't see the interview, but as soon as I read this story I knew that the overwhelming comment from many bloggers would be "Here she goes with the crying game again". I was right, many start accusing her of the crying game and using her role as a mother to garner sympathy and look human. Some people are just very harsh.

I have been bitterly disappointed in Senator Clinton's behavior and tactics during this campaign. Although I don't believe she is a racist, I thought her comments to the USA Today were racially devisive and invited racial bigotry. I also believe her decision to stay in this campaign is adversely impacting the Democratic Party and demonstrates fiscal irresponsibility.

All that said.., I honestly believe she is very proud of her daughter and I can understand that it means a lot to her to have her daughter on the campaign trail with her. I'm sure it means a lot to her to have her daughter's respect and admiration. Again, I didn't see the interview, but it's probably the most genuine and honest statement she gave.

I voted for Senator Obama and I believe he will serve the USA well as President. Although I have found Senator Clinton's tactics and behavior disgraceful and, strongly prefer that she not be selected to run as VP on the ticket with Senator Obama, I will support her if she is the democratic nominee. However, I strongly doubt she will win the nomination. Frankly, I hope she doesn't.

mike for houston   May 14th, 2008 4:22 pm ET

It is so fake ........................... I feel annoying.

ueen golf04   May 14th, 2008 4:21 pm ET

this remind me about obama's book,dreams from my father where he wrote touchingly about what his white mother went through before she died,between trying to pay her hospital bill and giving the impression to her children that everything was alrite,i think that was one of the most emotional moment of my entire life.

Paul   May 14th, 2008 4:21 pm ET

Thanks for letting America know that Hillary is also human and the best candidate for this election

Hillary we love you and support you all the way!!!
We need a Clinton to restore our broken economy

FLA and Michigan must count, they are Americans

Obama can be your VP until he learns how to do the job. He might eventually be ready in the future.

Hillary 08 – Yes you will!!!
Puerto Rico, Florida, Michigan, West Virginia, Kentucky & Oregon for Clinton!!!

Eli   May 14th, 2008 4:21 pm ET

Wolf is a Clinton supporter, or at least he postions himself as a aide to keep this fight going.... Or is he a GOP supporter?

Wow, thanks for two stories on Clinton getting emotional... I really needed that.. Still waiting for the story on Obama endorsements

brush   May 14th, 2008 4:19 pm ET

I for one am glad that she can get chocked up, she can show some real emotions, she is a real woman, a mother, a wife, and she loves her country. Good for her. Obama , and his amazon fake wife scares the crap out of me. I said fake, because I feel that he is fake and if he is elected I hope America gets what they wanted, a liar, thief, non christian, one that is just now proud of being an American , proud of the USA. Christians where are you? Do you not read your bible. Does it not mean anything to you at all that is a smooth talker, easy on the eye, has millions flocking after him like he is some GOD. Beware you are gonna get what you deserve and then its gonna be too late. I hope HC can pull this one off someway , somehow, cause if she don't, we as a country are going to be in a world of hurt, and if you think your scared now, waite, you haven't seen nothing yet.!

vict   May 14th, 2008 4:18 pm ET

She need to stop this game it is not going work this time Americans can not be fooled twice is she the only emotional person in this country ? all this is fake .It worked in Newhampshire it not going to work this time we are not children the game is over .When she was wining ther was no cry she was laughing.And now she is doing yhis to make people feel sorry for her not this time enough iss enough

VA Republicans   May 14th, 2008 4:18 pm ET

You have to give us a break Wolf Blitzer. just SAY it. be a man and SAY it. you support HRC. thats OK. its your right to vote for whomever you want. you also need to remeber that when you are on TV talking to millions of viewers you need to be nuetral. this tear thing worked before so this your new of helping her to win Orgon????? this is sick

CW4Barak   May 14th, 2008 4:18 pm ET

Aww...how sweet....do us all a favor and sing fat lady! Stop trying to scam poor white blue collar americans how of their hard earned money by misleading them about the prospects of you ever getting this nomination. Smart Obama supporters know you are just campaigning to pay off your huge debt. You are such a liar and dishonest! You don't care about us....you will say, do and become anything to try to steal this nomination....if you can't run a simple primary campaign without plunging it into debt...how the heck are you going to run the most powerful country on earth. Also, you need to apologise to us all for blinding us everyday with those bright colored suits!!

JW from Washington, DC   May 14th, 2008 4:18 pm ET

Seriously, Wolf? I mean, how can anyone believe her 'tears' are sincere? Perhaps they are, perhaps they aren't, but given her history and 'convenient timing' for tears, I wish Wolf would have not taken her 'tender emotion' at face value. I'm sure its easy to get that way when anyone thinks of how proud they are of their child, and Chelsea has grown up to be a strong woman, but I can't imagine Clinton doing something like this without it being politically motivated.

vict   May 14th, 2008 4:18 pm ET

She need to stop this game it is not going work this time Americans can not be fooled twice is she the only emotional person in this country ? all this is fake .It worked in Newhampshire it not going to work this time we are not children the game is over .When she was wining ther was no cry she was laughing.And now she is doing yhis to make people feel sorry for her not this time enough iss enough

Putting all politics aside there is nothing stronger than my love for my children,and I'm sure that Hillary and Barack feel the same way.

bg   May 14th, 2008 4:17 pm ET

Senator Obama is just too good. I think Senator Hillary is also a strong candidate, but unfortunately she ran into 'once-a-life-time' phenom. Too bad for Senator Hillary.

Reminds me of Phil Mickelson running into Tiger Woods in golf......

Helene   May 14th, 2008 4:16 pm ET

If she cries another time on TV I am going to throw up, literally ! Please !

Jeanne   May 14th, 2008 4:16 pm ET

Why do you need another blog area for this topic. Isn't one enough?

Chris In California   May 14th, 2008 4:16 pm ET

There is so much love in this family. It is evident that Hillary Clinton and her daughter, Chelsea, are very close. It is also obvious that, in addition to her being the best person to run this country in the running right now, Hillary Clinton has earned the respect and love of her daughter along with the rest of us who support her.

Yes we can!   May 14th, 2008 4:15 pm ET

I dont doubt her love and appreciation for her daughter, but after seeing many rallies and while listening to chelsea speak, i haven't seen her drop a tear....you can do it on a wolf interview, but not in live with chelsea there.....i wish the clintons best of luck in their political future, but this time it belong to Obama/Nagel 2008/20012

steve in mn   May 14th, 2008 4:15 pm ET

Wolf, if you get a chance, please ask Hillary Clinton or comment on why she seems so attractive to those among us who are minimally educated while Obama attracts college graduates and intellectuals. I'd be interested in the answer.

AJ, IL   May 14th, 2008 4:15 pm ET

Wolf quit it. You are making CNN = Clinton News Network, again. For CNN to give Hillary's campaign spokesman (Howard Wolfson) that much coverage during the West Viriginia Primary last night was ridiculous and clearly biased.

To watch Howard Wolfson spin lies and denial as you and John King asked him about the pledged delegate math, and not push him to acknowledge the math was a sad piece of journalism.

White American   May 14th, 2008 4:15 pm ET

She is so FOOL of it........ Why she's crying? wasn't she supposed to be tough. I don't understand that.

Charlotte   May 14th, 2008 4:14 pm ET

Wolf, don't you know she is not allowed to feel emotional. The Obama-bots will call her names again, as in the past. Why is Obama suddenly wearing a flag pin? He wouldn't be pandering now would he? Nah, he's above that.

Lisa   May 14th, 2008 4:14 pm ET

Go Hillary we need you, Obama cannot beat Mccain!!!!!

huh?   May 14th, 2008 4:14 pm ET

One post maybe . . . . . but two? 55 minutes apart from each other? It's fine if the ticker is meant to reflect editorial preferences but don't you guys tout yourselves as "the best political team on TV? " Do you mean team as in part of Clinton's team? Kind of shameless don't you think?

Pam   May 14th, 2008 4:14 pm ET

Come on Wolf, just admit you're a Hillary supporter.

JDM   May 14th, 2008 4:14 pm ET

This is the second time today Blitzer mention this today!
What about the Del count for O B.?

Sylvia, California   May 14th, 2008 4:13 pm ET

So drinking and hunting with the guys didn't work so HRC brings on the tears again. Disgusting!

proud army and navy mom   May 14th, 2008 4:13 pm ET

only thing that has tears coming from her eyes is that 20 million she threw away and losing

Ken Austin, TX   May 14th, 2008 4:13 pm ET

So what Wolf? Instead of asking her nice, pandering questions related to her daughter, you should've hit her with some more substantial-based questions.

sacto joe   May 14th, 2008 4:12 pm ET

DEMOCRATS BEWARE!!!

A lot of Repubs posing as Democrats are posting hate mail. They're trying to drive a wedge between us!

RESIST THE REPUB HATE MACHINE!

Debbie,NJ   May 14th, 2008 4:11 pm ET

Come on Wolf. With all that's going on you're emphasizing her crying over her daughter. That's why somebody else should have done the interview. SOmebody that would treat her like a candidate for Presidency rather than a first lady.

Rosalind   May 14th, 2008 4:11 pm ET

I know you love Hillary and all Wolf, but this is the exact same story that's already on the ticker. Exact same!!!

Who cares Wolf   May 14th, 2008 4:09 pm ET

I guess Chelsea is still living off the folks but she is getting experience which, according to some HRC supporters, is apparently sufficient to become President. Chelsea for Veep!

Ashley, OKC   May 14th, 2008 4:09 pm ET

Oh, give me a break!!!!

We see through you, Hillary!!! We all see through you!!!!

One question: If you value the life of your daughter so much and her presence in your life, then why did you send so many men and women her age overseas to die? Why did you put them in harm's way without reading the intelligence reports? Would you have sent your own daughter?

shola   May 14th, 2008 4:09 pm ET

senator clinton,
we respect you as a mother and a leader, but this presidency is not for you. If it were, majority of americans would not have voted for the so called inexperienced new comer. People can see beyond the farcade of nice campaign words, and please give us a break with the choke- ups, this is not about emotions, this is about lives.

Blyth   May 14th, 2008 4:09 pm ET

So does this mean Hillary will tell Chelsea what her husband did to
Juanita Broderick and why Hillary kept it silent?

FedUpDem   May 14th, 2008 4:09 pm ET

Can you even begin to imagine the kind of nasty vile things the obamidiots will be saying here?

Peter from Oregon   May 14th, 2008 4:08 pm ET

She does get very emotional when she thinks it benefits her. It has worked for her in the past. She's trying her best to play to the gender issue, i.e. mother-daughter relationship.

Venus   May 14th, 2008 4:08 pm ET

Her family has done a great job!

Hats off to Chel!

It's starting to hit Hillary that she is not going to win!

She even said it would be a mistake to vote for Mc Cain!

I don't trust her!

Go Obama!

For the love of this independent   May 14th, 2008 4:08 pm ET

As an Obama supporter. I really have to say if this was the side that showed forth more in this campaign other than the Rovist I truly believe Hillary would be the nominee. She is truly qualified to run the country and a wonderful person when you get to know her. I support Obama because I wanted change not experience. But I would have voted for Clinton.

Tee-Off   May 14th, 2008 4:07 pm ET

A win in Kentuky and Oregon could close the deal for President Obama. Let's all vote for Obama and get this long drawn out primary over with. I don't know if it is Hillary Clinton ranting all the time or what, but this primary seems to have been going on for five years. Please can someone shut that shrilly voiced old woman up.

Independent for Obama   May 14th, 2008 4:06 pm ET

********************** EVERYONE!! *************************

Please be nice to each other, and respectful of Hillary Clinton.

She's taken a lot of time out of her life to run for the presidency and try to do what she thinks is best for the country.

Name calling and nastiness never won anyone any friends.

v.ananthan   May 14th, 2008 4:06 pm ET

You have the choice to vote for OBama or vote for the 3rd term of BUSH; War for 100 years; Worse economy; Jobs loss; High groceries and gas prices... Just choose what you want...

I don't care about the Old , non-educated people voting for Hillary... I am old, but I care about the future for my children , grand children.. We need Change... No more BUSH-CLINTON...; Why you old -white , keep voting for the same people? Do you want the same politicover and over again?
