Clinton Pleased With Last Night, No Promises on Next Week

She was pleased with her performance?
I guess if you’re Hillary Clinton you can be pleased if you come off
Whiney, Nasty, Rude, and Evasive!
How about those Tax Returns, Hillary,
what are You Hiding?
How about those First Lady Papers?
What are you Hiding?

What a qualified actress!!! She knows how to comfort herself. No one makes own assessment on this earth. Its the role of people who were watching her.

The media just hates Hillary. I cannot wait for the analysis that is done after the election to show how unfavorable they are to her in terms of coverage. Now that all the news sites have blogs, it seems reporters think they are now allowed to have opinions.

This election is going to be one big fight If Hillary gets in the Media and all the swift boaters will go afte her IF Obama gets it thier will be a field day and every little thing will be run thru the mud and if MCcain gets in there will be plenty to say from the dems. In the end if BO does not get it the AA will be raging and if the women don’t get it well all H— will break out to. so what is the answer a third party jumping in thats what I want some one jumping in at the end I’d kick thier butt to . I for one would like to see the pollester Co get thier a—-kicked and the media for reporting unfairand and bias .

They had a debate last night?

My question is why the media dislikes Clinton so much. They have more access to her than most of her supporters. Is there something the reporters see that her supporters don’t?

I think you’re on to something, Wil. And perhaps that’s the single best reason I’ve heard for the Democrats nominating someone else.

Look at the questions Tim Russert asked last night. You know he is angry because she waited to do Meet the Press. Also he is known not to like her. What is going to come out of all of this is media backlash. In the next election, why have newspeople be the moderators? Here is a thought, get someone else respected to be the moderator, say Tom Hanks, and just have him ask questions which he collected from people in the audience and the internet. No media needed and no personal agendas.

Hillary quotes:::“What keeps me optimistic is the success I’ve had so far and the support I’m getting,” Clinton said.
“What keeps me going is that I know I would be the best president.”
Wasn’t it just last week she said that what kept her going was thinking about US and how WE were doing with this awful economy, lost jobs, poor health care, etc. She really does believe it’s all about her and what she wants. NOTE: She used a “I” and “me” 6 times in 2 sentences.

dream on, what about Obama wanting Will Smith to play him? Sounds like it is all about him. But I am sure you have an excuse ready for that statement or belief.

Dream on, let’s here your counts of Obama’s repeated, hum drum drum, yes we can, blah, blah, blah, nothin’, nothin, nothin’, hypnotize my audience, you’re going to sleeeeepppppppp…….Obama! BTW, dream on is a perfect name for someone who can type while sleeping.

What got me freaked out is Fox News, which I never watched before this primary, and they are treating Hillary and Obama very fair. Even Bill O’Reilly is very fair toward Clinton. Something’s not right here when Fox makes CBS, MSNBC, ABC, and the newspaper chains look like a cheering section for Obama. Never thought I’d say that.

OK,I’m outta here. None of you answered my question, but you all sure sounded like Hillary-attack,attack,attack. Guess there’s other posts with less angry people. Bye Bye!

Right on Toby! Hillary has to fight the media to win this election and that is a tough fight to win. A very strong lady with yes a controversial past but with whitewater investigated and cleared but people still use stuff like this against her.

Mike, yea, I totally agree about the Fox News thing. Never thought I would agree with that, but they are being far more fair about Clinton than any other news media. HILLARY 2008!

Brian – Obama just surpassed a million contributors. That’s unprecedented. He’s at the head of a political movement that is on the verge of beating an “inevitable” party insider for the Democratic nomination.
I’d say that’s a worthy storyline.
Rocky was based on a Chuck Wepner fight against Ali. At the time, no one had any thoughts of that insignificant fight becoming the basis for a movie, with the possible exception of Sylvester Stallone (I think he was in the ringside crowd). And I say “possibly,” because I doubt that Stallone even knew it at the time. But the underdog nobody ever heard of taking an Ali walloping for 15 rounds left an impression, and the rest of cinematic history.
With the Obama campaign, its certainly an easier call to make than it was with the Wepner fight.

Even the press is saying the press is tougher on Hillary. See the article on NYTimes where they talk about how Tim Russert was helping Obama. If you can figure out that answer, there is a problem.

I think the media is that fourth branch of government that is siding plitical activists ideas about their qualifications with the Sen. Clinton who is running for the United States President aalot lower and maybe because her backer and supporters are not political scientists handling a important job like the ‘most important person in the world’is a lot out of their credentials because of education chrisma.
So let’s look at the MEDIA
Is the media powerful enough to serve as a fourth branch of government?
Part of the strength of the media in US politics is the media having to take overa large part of the political information function carried out by political parties. Media role is the public’s attention focused to nation politics. Other effects of themedia serving as a virtual fourth branch of US government is, the fact that it enlarges the pluralism of the American system of politics and government, dispersinfg and fragmenting power even more than required by the constitutional system. The watchdog or investigating role of the mediahas eroded people’s confidence in government. Serving as a fourth branch of government the media makes it harder for the other three branches of government to act coherently . Failure of the other three branches , the media’s effect diminish the general power, reputation and acceptability of those branches.
The bottom line [the media quest for profits], rather than the public’s interest, increasingly drives mews coverage…The news has become increasingly sensational… the relentless search for attention getting stories weakens the press’s ability to provide citizens a clear understanding of what is a broadly at issue with politics. It is a difficult job trying to formulate society’s problems in a way citizens can understand and act upon them. The news media cannot do the job consistently well.

Donna About HRC – “she uses “I”
Yep she uses “I” in the same way GWB constantly uses “I”.
Good comparision, if you were trying to make it.

Hill.she.is.
She has a plan, and it sucks.

I agree with all you people out there that will write Hillary in Nov. if BHO wins the dem. nom. There is growing divide among dems. because we remember how HILLARY has fought for us all these years. The people too young to remember when she stood up in front of all those African men and demanded female circumcision to stop now and told the Chinese that women’s rights was human rights and that it was shameful for them to try to separate the two have forsaken the dem. party. True democrats know who has a backbone and who doesn’t. Don’t be sheep following the herd, be the change you want to see in the world! HILLARY 2008!

Don’t worry about the Democratic Party. Don’t worry about the Republican Party. Worry about women’s rights, children’s rights, healthcare for all, and the freedom to choose the one who truly represents those battles. In the end, it is not the party that matters most; it is the policies and needs for the people that matter most.
Vote Hillary!

Well, Mr. BHO shouldn’t have said on the national news that there was no doubt that he could get Hillary’s votes. How presumptive, how arrogant! Maybe a few of us don’t like being told who we WILL be voting for. HILLARY 2008!

what i dont understand is why people dont see how fake obama is he use other people speehes then denies it in the debate they ask clinton a question she answer they ask obama he says the same thing as clinton says does he have his own words

I will write her in. I do not support Obama in any way shape or form. Nobody is going to tell this voter who to choose as a candidate. I have had enough of a President learning on the job. Look where that got us!

“The stuff I’m reading on here is crazy. Writing in Hillary’s name if she loses? I am a big Obama supporter and even volunteer for his campaign, but I will vote for Hillary if he loses — I don’t want a Republican to win in November.”
leigh, hopefully our fellow Democrats will reconsider their threats in the silence of the voting booth.
They know as well as we do what another 4 years of a Republican administration will mean to the environment, healthcare, the economy, the war lets pray that they experience a “road to Damascus” moment before pulling such a careless stunt.
Clinton, would do well to encourage her supporters to get behind Sen. Obama and lend their support, sooner rather than later.

Wow, this blog is filled with people who have no memory between 1992 and 2000, or the recent years the Hillary was making herself a Senator in NY. The championship goes to “courtjusperk” who claimed she cried and cried watching the press grilling Hillary who is so very strong. “courtjusperk” sobs, “I don’t know if I could be that strong.”
What?! I watched the whole debate. Tim Russert pointed out to Hillary, “Senator Obama is correct about your inconsistency…You said you supported NAFTA when you were in White House…when you were in New York…” She became really agitated and finally said, “You don’t know all my records.” You see how she spins. Not strong. Spins!
Those were records! What are you crying about?
Tim Russert tried to be fair. But the only inconsistency he can point out about Obama was very weak, and Obama explained it, to my satisfaction. I don’t know if “courtjusperk” understood it though.
With voters like “courtjusperk”, no wonder the Clintons have survived this long, lying, cheating and stealing from American people. This is the time we use votes to show the part of America that you are neither smart, no majority, and put this issue and Clintonian actitivies completely to rest.

Clinton won the debate against Obama, NBC, and MSNBC, period.
It’s not easy taking on a whole media outlet like NBC and MSNBC, and then your opponent in politics. The fact that she is still in the race is a tribute to her resolve.
We will all be sorry if Obama is the nominee and president. He has no solution to any of our problems, and he knows it. His ditto-heads will figure this out later.
Problem is, we will all suffer the consequences. Get ready to pay $4 – $5 per gallon for gas this summer. I forgot, Obama will make us feel good about paying that much on gas.

Hillary won the debate! She can win the nomination if her supporters will just stay the course and VOTE HILLARY. (Tim Russert is despicable) We cannot allow him to beat her. He is not running. So just votefor Hillary. Ann

The photo shoots of Hillary during her debate questions had the markings of ‘gotcha” and she held her own. The MSM cosistantly puts her on the defensive and history has shown that she indeed is fine tuned to take on tough issues. Obana has yet to show a toughness.The soft ride the press is giving him indicates a fear to offend him because of his race, matched against a fear of a strong woman. The job requirements awaiting the next president require strong and tested skills; so far they have been best displayed by Senator Clinton.
