Clinton vs. O’Reilly: The Interview

Obama has to have a Neanderthal protect him from a TV personality like O’Reilly. Hillary, on the other hand, isn’t afraid. This is just one of the staggering differences between fragile ‘lil Obama and Hillary.

Obama doesn’t want to answer the tough questions about his character that O’Reilly would invariably ask. Unlike many in the awestruck media, O’Reilly would definitely ask Obama why he didn’t leave Wright’s church and publicly take him to task for saying America created the AIDS virus to kill African Americans. He’d also ask Obama why he has maintained a friendship with Bill “the bomber” Ayers.
Hillary knows O’Reilly would also ask her tough questions, but the chief difference is that she isn’t afraid. Virtually everything about her life has already been rummaged through, and still she remains the stronger, smarter, and more competent candidate.

In my most humble opinion, it appears as though Rev. Wright and the Michigan branch of the NAACP are on Hillary Clinton’s side. They are out to make Obama look bad, and they are doing a really good job.
They want Hillary to win.
They need Hillary to win.
They loved the Clinton years.
They want a Clintonpeat.
So, Rev. Wright, the Michigan branch of the NAACP, and most people of Michigan want Hillary to win. Rumor has it, that Rev. Wright is on Hillary’s payroll. So watch this, as May 6 approaches, Rev Wright’s comments and appearances will intensify. Obama will look bad, voters to loose trust, and Hillary will come out smelling like roses.
In addition, Rev Wright is making all of the church leaders and preachers of all RACES look really, really bad. Now that’s sad!!!!
Hey, Gov. Mike Easley…welcome to the team!!!
btw…REV WRIGHT DOES NOT REPRESENT THE BLACK CHURCH

O’Reilly usually wimps out on these pre-taped interviews. Remember his less-than-incisive interview of Michael Moore? I expect the same here.

Hopefully Bill asks her why her supporters organized Wright’s press conferences.
and what she thinks Ahmadenijad is going to do with her comments of “obliterating Iran with nuclear weapons” (if she hasn’t seen the video propaganda he is passing around to friends and allies talking about protecting themselves from the warmongering usa…with getting nuclear weapons…you know just to defend themselves)
or maybe ask her how she is going to take our troops out of Iraq but going to set up an umbrella of protection for the rest of the middle east on our dime.
This woman is the worst candidate we have ever seen.
…and maybe Bill will even go into her scandals that she has never once publicly been asked about…or answered or why those have been off limits in this campaign.
She will bring us down in the vision of the world more than even John McCain at this point. Get rid of this candidate.

I THINK HILLARY IS REALLY A REPUBLICAN IN SHEEPS CLOTHING.

I wonder if HRC will answer to why Rev Wright was invited to the White during the Cliton years. Doesn’t that make her guilty by association like Obama? I mean – this is America, there are not two standards we go by…one for whites and the other for blacks..is there?

Hey ya’ll I am right here in Indianapolis and we are excited about the election! Hillary is going to win here! The Republicans are coming out strong for her. No because Rush is teeling them to vote for Hillary but they know if McCain can’t pull it off they would rather have Hillary than BO as president!!
Hoosiers for Hillary!

I can tell by the replies that this very much angers the Obama supporters.
Obama is too much a WIMP to face Oreilly.
So here come the Obama SPIN MASTERS to explain why somehow.
Dont worry. Oreilly will be TOUGH on Clinton.
Obama supporters are DEFINITLY worried that Clinton will take the heat, forcing tremendous pressure on Obama to come on, where he will not look as good as Clinton.
Obama never looks as good when the heat is on as Clinton does.
So he will have to look like a tool on his show, or refuse to come on, making him look even more like a wimp compared to Clinton.

h
Hillary is interviewing with O’Riley and Obama is not. A really clever person could figure out that it’s a good move on her part.
On the other hand, you rant and rave and indulge in cheap assertions. I guess that’s the way you see life.

Where is your courage John Edwards. Your wife likes Hillary’s health plan. Her plan would be good for America. Come on John, get on board with your wife and support Hillary. You know it will be impossible for Obama to win NC, but Hillary just might do well in your state in November.

When Obama got on Fox news Sunday, all the Hillary supporters complained Obama was legitimizing Fox. Now that Hillary is on O’reily they claim Hillary is the one with courage because Obama only goes to friendly media (of course ignoring the Sunday Fox interview).

X marks the spot — I didnt see Clinton people do that; if so they were wrong. BUT, when Clinton met with and got an endorsement from Scaiffe, and news reports showed that Fox had been more sympathetic to Clinton, Obama’s supporters said that’s because she wants to legitimate them and she is a rightwingnut.

I actually think Clinton supporters are either better educated or have a better grasp of the issues. Obama supporters seem to engage more in personal attacks of Rush, Clinton, McCain, Bush — anybody.
I guess that, if you can’t justify your candidate, you resort to whatever means it takes to make you feel good about him. Still, there’s something amiss when a person can’t discern or discuss issues.

Please, at this point it’s hard to distinguish MSNBC, CNN, Huffington, and Daily Kos from O’Reilly. They are all so unfair and imbalanced, its ridiculous.
“I’m disappointed that Hillary is going to give legitimancy to this neocon shill. He represents the lowest element of the non-news, conservative, propaganda channel FOX. Shame on you Hillary for pandering to this creep.”

I think Fox News is changing to try and stay relevant. I doubt O’Reilly goes after her much; I think Fox realizes the country is shifting away from the politics they were preaching.
On the other hand, I think it would be silly to presume that any lovefest with Senator Clinton by Fox News would last past the nomination.
It seems she has finally come to peace with the ‘vast right wing conspiracy’. Good for her… That is unless this is being done for political expediency, but she is not known to do that, right?

The interesting thing is that for a large part of this campaign, the media were fixated on how Obama inspires, and that he has a message of “hope” and “change” and that he wants to bring a “new kind of politics.” His surrogates and supporters were running around talking about not wanting Bush, Clinton, Bush, Clinton, and that he represents a return to Camelot. NONE OF THIS HAS TO DO WITH POLICY! But it made him look good, and he did not complain. Now, that nonpolicy stuff is hurting him, all I hear are pleas for policy. Sounds like a flip flop. When Clinton complained that we need to look at specifics and that you govern in prose not poetry – she was called a cynic. Now everyone wants to talk policy all of a sudden. Why?

tony
Why?
Because people are coming to realize that the ‘hope’ Obama uses to inspire is void of substance. People are now looking for a direction and a candidate that can lead the nation through the labyrinth.

@X marks the spot: Absolutely. I tend to think that most Americans don’t follow the small stuff. I also think many people have visceral reactions to candidates that dictate their vote; then the process is “intellectualized” to justify the decision. It’s also easier for people to vote against someone than “for” someone, as the latter requires a personal investment or commitment.

She is one tough cookie. I give her credit for not running away from her problems. (I’m watching Obama running on the TV).

A lot of voters watch his show, even many Hillary supporters since the liberal media became so biased, so this is great news.

That is what we need as POTUS. A fighter who does not back down be it O’Reilly or a debate anywhere. Obama on the other hand refuses to have another debate. He says we already have 21…yes but not everyone saw those debates. He is just afraid that without the teleprompter and a friendly moderator he will look like a fool again…remember the Pennsylvania debate.

If Hillary is willing to be interviewed by pompous blowhard Keith Olbermann the night before the PA primary, and now she is willing to be interviewed by Olbermann’s alter ego, O’Reilly, well maybe there is some substance to this woman after all. Unlike namby pamby Obama who’s too scared to debate.

No matter what anyone thinks of FOX and O’Reilly, it is a smart move for Hillary to show up. I am to this point a McCain supporter but do give Hillary credit for not ignoring the FOX network because face it, there are a whole lot of us independents out here who consider FOX one of the few that are fair to all politicians. If boht Democrats are smart they would have another debate hosted by the FOX channel and we would see how jurnalists are supposed to act.

yeah, can you say, we don’t have enough money for ad buys so we’ll take any interview we can get. I hear she is going to appear on Sesame Street next, maybe the Rush Limbaugh show after that. Why does Senator Clinton support and advocate O’Reilly’s views on sexism and sexual harassment in the workplace?

These won’t be tough questions, they more likely will be stupid ones.

Bill O’Reilly is and idiot and he is going to bring Hillary down to his level. AT least Obama has the decency to stay away from the right wing nutt.

Hillary can handle anything that o’reily can come up with! She is a very strong , intelligent woman. I am afraid that if obama becomes president we will have a wimp in the white house & in some ways that would be worse than the “cowboy” we have now!
wake up america!!!

If Hillary wins, it’s pay back time for those who support Sen. Obama. Hillary’s running for presidency is for her own personal interest. We are looking forward for Hillary, Bush and Bush Hillary which go in and out to the white house..People are tired of seeing Bush and Clinton in the political arena. Give a chance to some other politician..

Unlike her spineless counterpart, this woman shows the fortitude of spirit, grit and toughness we need in a Commander in Chief. GO HILLARY!

If she wins just think what they can rent out in Washington to supporter’s

Damn, this woman impressess me more and more every day. Bill Clinton was called “bulletproof”. I believe now they’ll call Hillary “FEARLESS”.

You know people, Hillary is convincing me to have my vote. I don’t agree with her in many issues, but boy, she has a tenacity and conviction like no one.
She has proven to be a tough, smarter woman. Boy, after all she has been through lately with Richardson’s turning his back on her, media asking over and over why she doens’t leave her candidacy for Obama, money all going to Obama, etc. She is 60 years old like me…..More power to her, yOU GO GIRL…GO HILLARY!

Excellent use of resources Senator Clinton, when the money isn’t there use fiscal restraint and find new ways to get your message out. Sounds Presidential to me. Highly commendable. Hillary’08

Ida is right that Hillary is far and away the one to handle tough situations and think through things….I always though that Fox was doing the white house bidding but in the primary season they have been more realistic about things all this rosy talk about Obama is just that there are too may questions most of which he wont answer… and today saying that wright does not speak for him and he is upset with him etc that just is too little too late you can sit silent for 20 yrs and then all of a sudden say well he doesnt speak for me that is disingenuous you cannot vote for someone soley on the way they make you feel or uncociously because they are attractive to you etc(the former being what most Obama people cite as their devotion to him) it just isnt right and most registered dems that have voted that way all their life know it too

O’Reilly is pompus perverted bully. Trailing with an impossible chance to win, as she’s oftem demonstrated, she’ll do anything. But what is this? What good could it possibly do to go on any Faux show? Is she such an egomaniac she thinks they really like her? Doesn’t she know they want her to stay in, hoping the infighting will set the Democrates back. They want her to continue negative campaigning to help them put their presidential campaign playbook together. The only viewers on that network that will ever vote for her are the crossover republican dittoheads that do so in open primaries just to try and keep things stirred up. No if she were REALLY tough and true to her word she’d tell O’Reilly to take a flying leap.

Clinton should not be legitimizing this right-wing propaganda entertainment show by making an appearance.

I’ll watch,just to see Hillary be honest and articulate to The Fox News buffoon!He won’t be able to shout her down,in order to prove himself a fool.

Allan J Krueger
If you represent the democrats, you’re making a great case to vote against your cause. Your eloquence and through understand of the complexities of all issues is truly underwhelming. More underwhelming that your mastery of the English language.

I am happy to see Hillary breakdown the barriers of politics and media. I am a republican and will be voting for Hillary since she stands for something even though I do not agree with everything. McCain( a60,s democract under republican label) on the other hand will continue the current republican party sell out of the country with Ted Kennedy.

You its kind of silly all you guys and girls going back and forth but guess what who cares you have already made your minds up along time ago. So just shut up sit back and let BillO spew his crap and let HRC spew her crap since thats about all we are going to get from them when this goes on air

Hillary will never pass up an opportunity for free air time. Look for her next on the Rush Limburger show. The broads is broke and is going all out with her stupid husband. Anything goes.

THats exactly why I took my mom to see Hillary in ashevile last thursday because she is tough and we understand that kinda thing in NC maybe its ok to be a wet noodle in IL but but not here!

jimt
it is possible that Hillary sees an openign with Obamas current misfortune but she is gracefull and is not standing on his neck like they trioed to do to her the tide is turning Obamas idea of being gracefull is to neatly roll up his sleaves and take off his tie lol

Sorry A…I didn’t realize it needed to be spelled out for you. It’s a shame. Subtlety is completely lost on some people. And we wonder why we’re in the shape we’re in today. Just look at who gets to vote. Maybe some dope would do you some good, A. Couldn’t hurt, Buddy.

jimt
yea looks liek someone aught to ask for their money back with interest whoever paid for his Columbia and Harvard Education it wasnt him though he no doubt had the money years ago to pay it off see peole we werent born yesterday and we arent gonna put up with uninfoemed enthusiastic support of a phony!

Hillary is obviously just looking for ways to allow her campaign to still be revelant. I gaurentee you that she will be badgered with inane, politically unimportant questions, give a bunch of contrite and partial answers and afterwards regret going on there in the first place.
I can’t believe that she won’t agree to meet with opposing country leaders and yet schedules an interview with O’Reilly under any conditions.

Dear Lord (not the one for Reverend Wright!)…please tell me there isn’t another speech tomorrow where Obama rebuts all of the racist spew out of TUCC! What was he doing in those pews anyway? Texting Rezco?

I must be honest. Hilary and Obama both bring strength to our country. Millions of women and millions of black people feel empowered watching great people speak up for our nation. No where else in the world can all people of color and gender speak genuinely using all of our advanced media outlets and avenues of speech. America is at her best. I am a Republican woman and I support McCain. I believe he is the best candidate. I do have improved health and vision watching Hilary reach her potential and Barack learn to care about America. I am deeply moved by this campaign. This campaign is good for America. I strongly support the contest that we face. May the best person win! God Bless America.

Funny enough, Obama just start to denounce Wright as politician. Even 3 year boy knows that wright was wrong but you still defend him on your speech. Obama’s judgement is too low or your heart is not there. Do we want such as person as democratic candidate?

hillary is a man. obama is a girly man. period.

IN RESPONSE TO THE COMMENT BELOW…. The poster indicates that Hillary looks best when the heat is on….Yeah, she looked great dodging that sniper fire in Bosnia…great candidate you’ve got there! The woman admitted in the last debate that she lied and I can’t believe my fellow dems are still supporting this liar! She’s really starting to look like a Republican…If she get the nomination, I will NOT vote in this election!
I can tell by the replies that this very much angers the Obama supporters.
Obama is too much a WIMP to face Oreilly.
So here come the Obama SPIN MASTERS to explain why somehow.
Dont worry. Oreilly will be TOUGH on Clinton.
Obama supporters are DEFINITLY worried that Clinton will take the heat, forcing tremendous pressure on Obama to come on, where he will not look as good as Clinton.
Obama never looks as good when the heat is on as Clinton does.
So he will have to look like a tool on his show, or refuse to come on, making him look even more like a wimp compared to Clinton.

Gee, I hope Hillary doesn’t cry during the segment. Get real people, the woman bugs her eyes out, nods up and down. Can she beat McCain? NO. The old bag has got skeletons in her closet that will definitely come out during any McCain debate. Frankly, Hillipooh won’t win the nomination because Obama will win the delegate count. HA HA HA!!!!!!!!

The way Hillary throws back the hard stuff, she’ll be stoned out of her mind at 3AM. Hopefully Bill will rip her a new one. This is going to be a dog and cat fight second to none. I’m looking forward to it. Go get her Bill. We’ll see if Obummer has the guts to go toe to toe after Bill pulverizes HilLIARly

The way Obama thinks through answers as he gives them, with stutters at the beginning while he finds the right word reminds me of a professor. It is different, not deficient and cultural prejudice towards people who stutter as somehow mentally less facile is one of those things millions of people live with. Kennedy did it and I’m sure he was unprepared too.

Finally. . .a democratic candidate with enough guts to appear on O’Reilly. He’ll do his best to rough her up but he will also give her big time props for appearing. Good for her. In the end, she’s the winner in this move.

I think Hillary and O’Reilly should make out. A big old wet sloppy kiss would definitely set the tone.

Hillary has NO class. Ever see what the Clintons did to the White House after they left. Hillary stole a load of stuff. The Clintons are a couple of low-class hillbillies from Arkansas. Gee, how the heck did she get a Senate seat in New York when her supposed home state was Arkansas? Or wait, was it Pennsylvania? This week Hillary’s home state is North Carolina. Yeah, right.

I have to, as a Democrat, remember that I am a Democrat above all. Not an “Obama”follower or a Clinton follower. Whomever is elected, I will need to be on board with. So, although I totally DETEST Hillary and believe she will be in BIG DOGGIE DOO about her legal affairs, I have to be able to support her over McCain, should that happen to work out as the case. Kind of makes me sick, though.

Sheesh….if you wanna talk about guilt by association….if Clinton is the candidate running against Barack, is she guilty because America is learning that he has a lot of faults? The only thing I recall Hillary saying is that Wright wouldn’t be her pastor. That’s pretty much what Obama said today….20 years later.

Hillary going on the O’Reilly show takes guts and leadership. Sorry, Obama, you have no guts or leadership. Maybe you can give the unRev. Wright a call and have a prayer fest in your favorite church.

“Hillary going on the O’Reilly show takes guts and leadership.”
Sorry Abe, but its called desperation. Hillary would go on the Nazi Communist party channel if she knew it would get her votes. its a simple fact. Oh wait she was actually a lawyer for a far left communist group in 1969.

Barack Obama cannot should not win the nomination and if he does cannot win the general elections..I do not know how a sensible man like Obama believes that white people are going to vote him for president in the general election..they would vote in the primary to make people believe that race is not an issue but when they are faced with a choice on general election between a black man(half black)but considered black(one drop theory)..and a white person they would vote regardless of party affiliation..Black people have been voting for white candidates for many years and now that they are voting for barack all of a sudden they are not smart voter anymore..Were it not for the black vote Bill Clinton would not have been president for two terms..Blacks have been the most loyal voting block for the democratic party and they are always taken for granted..well lets see if Blacks are going to vote for Hillary if the superdelegates decide to choose Her as the nominee..I doubt it!. Blacks may stay home and if that happens then the democrats would lose…Here come McCain..and Republicans again..With McCain, we will continue to feel the pain and we should not complain because if you complain then you would be called unpatriotic..what a shame! The president of the USA would be McCain..what a shame ..but then again the american voter has proven not to be very wise..look who our current president is..the laughing stock of the world..people in the world trying to figure out how we can elect someone like George Bush for president..to the world he is a joke to Republicans spinner he’s a great president…what a joke!

bronxbomber:
If you make 90K a year and live paycheck to paycheck, that’s your fault. You should count your blessings and learn to spend your money wisely.

Why is it that, after reading mile after mile of this hate filled diatribe, so few of you know how to spell correctly in the English language?

BRONXBOMBER YOU SHOULD TEACH YOUR CHILDREN NOT TO HATE

90% of coverage is pro Hillary and anti obama so thats why we need real change in this country.
Posted by: bronxbomber | Apr 29, 2008 9:47:54 PM
=====================================
Real change ?…er..like pimping Obama as the mainstream media has been doing for 4 months…..you want the current situation to change, and go back to the good old days, huh?

I wonder if HRC will answer to why Rev Wright was invited to the White during the Cliton years. Doesn’t that make her guilty by association like Obama? I mean – this is America, there are not two standards we go by…one for whites and the other for blacks..is there?
________________________________________
Nice try. But Bush has shaken hands with him too. The president attends many, many dinners held for organizations at the White House. Just part of the job. The president isn’t responsible for who’s on the guest list. It’s called a grip and grin event.

bronxbomber,
Are you a paid blogger for Obamanation? You must have a weak mind and strong stomach to handle that job.

I am surprised and impressed Hillary has the backbone to talk with Mr. Republican. You earned my vote. I don’t like the rev. wrong.

Obama is too dumb to realize, he is toast. Rev. J. Wright should do the last rites for Obama. Time for Obama to head back to Chicago, to the house Resko gave him.

Hillary gets a lot of credit for agreeing to appear on O’Reilly’s show. She’s tough and can hold her own. In contrast, Obama looks weak. He can’t take the heat and he won’t debate Hillary. Do we want a President who only looks good when he’s reading the telepompter?

Hillary is so much more capable of leadng this country than OBAMA. IN many ways. He is the most unvetted candidate in American history. Why???? What is this about? He has so many red flags.

To:bob strong—you are right–it will make Hillary come out smelling like a rose.Would’t it be nice if we all could get the questions before the test?But our last name is not “CLINTON”.

Forget all this, I have a Great idea! I saw a young very charismatic, black man on tv today, his last name was Ford if I caught it right! He is young, well thought speaker, and we need to untite the party, and Obama sure cant do it, now with alot of whites! Hillary for Pres, this Ford fella for Vice, the blacks will vote for him, as there is no reason past skin color they vote for Obama! But Hillary, check his church references, first!

orange cat:
Obama refused to debate Hillary, one-on-one. Is Obama afraid of Hillary?
Leadership = Hillary

Rev Wright just can not shut up until November, he is crazy. Do you believe Obama never heard this for 20 years? This man can not shut up

FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE PRAISING HER COURAGE…PLEASE SHE KNOWS HE WILL NOT GO AFTER HER. THEY (REPUBLICANS ) WANT TO RUN AGAINST HER . THEY ALREADY HAVE A CAMPAIGNED GEARED UP TO GO AFTER HE IN THE GE. SO HOW BRAVE DO YOU HAVE TO BE…WHEN YOU KNOW THEY WILL PUMP YOU UP TO THE PUBLIC ??
BILL IS A RIGHT WINGED REPUBLICAN. JUST LIKE RUSH AND LAURA.
IF SHE IS SO BRAVE WHY DIDN’T SHE ANSWERED THE QUESTIONS THAT WERE PUT TO CHELSEA?? BY THE WAY WHERE ARE HER BROTHERS?? WHY HAVEN’T THEY BEEN STUMPING FOR HER??BRAVE ?HILL BRING OUT YOUR BROTHERS!!!
BRAVE IS WHEN YOU HAVE THOUSANDS COMING AFTER YOU FOR WHAT SOMEONE ELSE SAID DAY IN AND DAY OUT. AND GOING OUT AND SAYING AND EXPLAINING TO THE PEOPLE THIS IS WHAT I WANT FOR THIS COUNTRY WITH YOUR HELP WE CAN ACCOMPLISH IT.
BARACK OBAMA 08

Hillary is going to take this from the rookie Obama. She is the better man for this job. NO WIMPS in the WHITE HOUSE. Hillary is going to be a great president.
Go Hillary

I get these stink-wart republicans on here putting Obama and Hillary down – they have every reason to do that. What I don’t get is how democrats are knocking either democratic candidate. You morons are falling right into the Cheney-hatched evil plan – DIVIDE & CONQUER! Take a step back, take a breath and know that whichever democrat wins you need to support them -STOP criticizing. Maybe it’s true. Maybe republicans are just plain smarter than democrats and deserve to win. You all make me want to switch parties.

Hillary is going to take this from the rookie Obama. She is the better man for this job. NO WIMPS in the WHITE HOUSE. Hillary is going to be a great president.
Go Hillary

Hey “sd”
GET OFF THE FORUM WIMP

Emily,
Hillary is a desperate. She is doing everything horrible in this world to win nomination which is mathematically impossible. Every vote to Hillary at this point is a vote to Republican.
Barack has denounced all Wright’s commnets and he now disown him.

Emily,

I think the Republicans have plenty of stuff to send Obama out on a swift boat faster than you can say “Obama has the Wright Stuff”. They don’t want to take on Hillary. Been there done that and she’s still standing.

Obama is desperate.
He left his teflon suit behind when he replaced it with his five new ones.
Now, all his shady deals and artful deceits are sicking to him…. and showing up as sweat marks… which is only one of the reasons he shed his jacket..
Google “Obama and Kenya”… you’ll find it very damaging to him… and reason enough for him to be desperate!

Bill its time to put aside your bitter feelings towards Obama and not pander to Hillary.
A judge rules that Hillary Clinton does not have to testify in a fraud case related to breaking campaign finance rules in her first Senate bid. This, in spite of the treasurer of her campaign being indicted for filing false reports to the Federal Election Commission.
In the landmark civil fraud case against Bill Clinton in Los Angeles, where the former President is charged with defrauding a Hollywood dot com millionaire to help Hillary Clinton obtain more than $1.2 million from him for her 2000 Senate campaign, Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Aurelio Munoz ruled on Friday, April 25 that Hillary Clinton would not be required to testify in a sworn deposition as a material witness in the case until AFTER the November election!
While Bill Clinton, Chelsea Clinton, Al Gore, Ed Rendell, Barbara Streisand, Cher, Stan Lee, Brad Pitt, Mike Wallace, Larry King et al may be called to testify and be deposed starting in May, Hillary alone has been protected from explaining her role in her husband’s fraud charges.

My heart goes out to the stupid hate-mongers in this country. When are you people going to wake up and smell the bull—-. I pray that obama stick to his own method of running for office and not particpate in this mud-slinging tactics that his opponent have stooped too. As the old saying goes,if you lay down with dogs, you come up with fleas. Look at our white house representators. I hope that the average citizen is not fooled by the brain-washing tactic that is being played out right now. When are we going to realized that this is no game, our young men and women are dying everyday, while you idiots are just standing by with your racist and bias comments, instead of looking at the issues at hand 1. Why are we in a war that was sold to us, that was all a lie. 2.Why are we still buying product from China that is poisioning our children, pets and ourselves. The high gasoline prices, that is affecting every working stiff in this country. I could go on and on about issues in this country that should be looked at. And all you idiots want to talk about is that this man is a wimp, because he isn’t running a campaign on the usual crap that you idiots love to see. Well haven’t you seemed what that have gotten us. What did bush do for us with his John Wayne attitude. This is not a athletic competition, Mr Obama keep doing what you do, don’t let the this vigilante mob stop you from staying the course.

A “Douglas / Lincoln” style debate who does this woman think shes kidding.
Man, she talks garbage and shes as slippery and conning as they come.
People need to be smart and really take these candidates to task on specifics.
IF I had the chance I’d nail HILARY on the whole NAFTA thing which was one of the causes for many jobs being done away with.
I’d ask her about her hubbie being a special board member and consultant to companies that are not in the U.S and is making a killing all because he was mr. Prez.
I’d ask her to please explain in detail how are you going to help create sustainable jobs and don’t give me that energy and windfall crap!!!!!
I’m a debater and a damn good one she would not dare come in my face with that garbage.
speak on it!!!!

dem voter
r u saying obama smoked crack?

rich – Thank you for your service to our country. I’m an Independent voter who’s come to the same conclusions about Senator Clinton as you have and have become a crusader for the first time, also. I’m a WW ten years younger than you, who wonders every time someone claims to be a Senator Clinton supporter and says they would vote for Senator McCain over Senator Obama, whether they have any idea what women were subjected to before Roe vs Wade was passed and what it was like to live during the time of a draft lottery. How anyone who is ProChoice and wants an end to the war could vote for John McCain is beyond me.
After seeing the diversity and strength of Senator Obama’s supporters (18,000 in Chapel Hill, NC last night), I believe and am especially encouraged by the legions of young adults who have been energized to join the Democratic process…that we can…by working together…bring about the beginning of the change that this country so desperately needs.

Hillary the annoited; the woman who never planned to campaign in all these states she suddenly “cares about” because the nomination was supposed to be handed to her. One of the great panderers of all time. There’s a reason that the educated of this country are voting for Barak- we aren’t fooled!

I’ll give it to her though, she is great politician. But is that what we really need?

My thoughts on FOX:
FOX News is still driven by the RNC machine. The only reasons we see more fair coverage of the dem nomination race are:
1) FOX doesnt care who gets the dem nom… they still promote McCain
2) FOX has nothing to report on the RNC front since they do not have a race
3) FOX is all about ratings and making money on advertising
4) FOX is all about increasing ad real estate value by increasing viewership
It’s politics folks, O-Reilly’s ratings are in a slump and pressing both dem candidates for an interview is the same thing any media host is doing. I cant stand the guy but I understand the motives he has as well as the network. You can bet they will change their tune heavily for the GE as usual.
My thoughts on Clinton and Obama:
Clinton made a championed an risky political move to appear on O-Reilly. He will no doubt hammer her but may be stupid enough to hit on old ones that she is clearly going to be prepared for. We shall see how she handles impromptu questions – I hope she does well.
Obama made a politically risky move to decline to appear on O-Reilly but will state he appeared on FOX first. I am not so sure that is true though – I would have to look it up. However, at a time when Obama is looking weak of character and unfit to be CIC, I think his decision was another example of poor judgment.
End result? We will see what Clinton is made of and continue to wonder what Obama is made of – heck he wont even agree to the one-on-one debate and others even though the voters want to see them (based on the number of voters watching and showing up at the polls.)
The race is a deadheat… one has slightly more delegates and one has slightly more votes. Denying the voters what they want to see to help them decide, help them participate, help maintain the party’s momentum towards the GE, and help them unite behind a candidate is really a disservice to the country and the world waiting for a new President that will once again bring us all peace and prosperity. Obama is making some grave political mistakes.

Obama doesn’t want to answer the tough questions about his character that O’Reilly would invariably ask. Unlike many in the awestruck media, O’Reilly would definitely ask Obama why he didn’t leave Wright’s church and publicly take him to task for saying America created the AIDS virus to kill African Americans. He’d also ask Obama why he has maintained a friendship with Bill “the bomber” Ayers.
Hillary knows O’Reilly would also ask her tough questions, but the chief difference is that she isn’t afraid. Virtually everything about her life has already been rummaged through, and still she remains the stronger, smarter, and more competent candidate.

So, I guess we will finally have a member of the media ask Hillary about Peter Paul and Norman Hsu??
You Hillary supporters are so clueless about this woman it’s ridiculous.

this is just the beginning.
Obama has had nothing thrown at him yet.
if he can’t take what’s come up so far, he really SHOULD get out of the kitchen.
Hillary has been under the slanderous, venomous barrage of off topic slime spewed her way by Obamaniacs since the very beginning; it’s strengthened her.
let’s see how this current “noise”
affects Obama.
As for me, I’ll stick with Hillary!
aff

Hey aff, you should replace the f’s with s’s. Between Hillary & Obama you don’t even have a good lightweight.
They couldn’t manage a dog house together!

Let see if I got this right: Obama is leading in States, Votes, Pledge Delegates, Has ran the best campaign that we have ever seen from bottom up, has been hit by the kitchen sink, microwave, refrigerator, the cabinets, the floor covering and freezer and your for Hillary and if you can’t have here you want McCain and you love Fox Opinion Station?

Hillary, Good for you! I’m with you all the way.

OBAMA the duck would just shy away for good.
Hillary will take on any challenges with courage and tact.
It’s time that the OBAMA campaign stop giving nonsenses that the one leading in pledged delegates win the competition.
Superdelegates are appointed in the situation that none of the candidate can reach 2025. Below 2025, the tiebreaker is left to the expert, superdelgates. Just like college football, the number one ranking is not just a win but the quality of it counts too.
The ultimate tie-breaker with no obvious winner should let the superdelegate decide according to electability
A win in Alaska is not equivalent to Pennsylvania.

Hillary was just on Hannity the other week and it was a love fest. She and her Staff have been on FoxNews nearly every day for the last two months.
What’s the big deal with O’Reily ? Is it that he’s the last FoxNews guy she has not talked to yet ?

Virginia,
What wonderful comments. It is refreshing to hear someone who prefers a different party and candidate comment positively on all three candidates remaining. You show a respect for our electoral process, and seem to understand how deeply moved people are by these candidates and what their achievements represent to so many Americans that have felt like there were limits placed on what we were allowed to achieve or even dream about due to nothing more than the circumstances of our birth. Despite the infighting and harsh words, I too am proud of what both Senators Clinton and Obama have achieved. Our nation as whole may not be ‘ready’ to elect a woman or a black man, in a close race the sexists and/or bigots may yet matter enough to derail either Clinton or Obama (the jury is still out) ***but*** it is clear that a very large portion of our nation is ready for both. We are a nation on the edge of accepting full equality and oh how far we’ve come and overcome in less than a generation. We’ve not eliminated our ‘isms’ (racism, sexism, ageism etc.) by any stretch of the imagination but we’ve reached the point where as a society we at least acknowledge they are wrong and most of us have made a commitment to keep fighting for justice for all. Once the immediate battle dies down, I hope we can all sit back for a moment and enjoy what we’ve accomplished before we get back to work on correcting the ‘isms’ and injustices that still remain.
As to the topic of Clinton going on O’Reilly, I think it once again shows her incredible strength and her willingness to talk to those that aren’t friendly to her. The past month or so, Sen. Clinton has really started to show a strength and perseverance that’s unmatched. Although she’s a politician and like all politicians has very human flaws, her courage to face her enemies –especially when she faced Scaife– reminds me of Daniel going into the Lion’s Den.

why does abc news have to “spin” the story to make bill seem like a bad guy? that confrontation with the obama staffer wasnt his fault. cant the news be just that anymore, news.

Hillary is one weak candidate. She needs of 3 helpers (Bill, Chelsea and McCain) and has not been able to get Obama out. Not even in a 4 to 1 match she is able to do a thing!!

Uggh Obama thinks Wright’s sermons are not watchable, and “now” he thinks Wright is offensive. Doesn’t upset you that Obama made fools of all his supporters defending Wright for months and then he stages this fallout?

D.Parks
Let us be clear a white democrat not voting for Obama does not make them racist.
Prior to PA 52% of white voters came out for Obama and 83% of Black voters.
So that argument is flawed. Time to give it up and get a real issue.

I applaud Hillary for taking O’reilly’s questions. He’ll do the Limbaugh twist to them, but I applaud her.
I suppose after dragging Chelsea through all that sniper fire, this was easy.

It was refreshing to read some of the comments on how Hillary Clinton can and will take on Bill O’Reilly and compote herself with dignity, intelligence and grace. Why even Joe Scarborough who finally met Hillary in person and spoke with her was very impressed with her knowledge and poise and ideas on how to solve the problems of our country. As a woman, I am proud that someone of Hillary’s caliber will represent our country in a world fraught with dictators, murderers and just plain nutcases, all of whom Hillary can handle. She had all that experience as First Lady, and that experience alone makes her best qualified to become our nominee. Did you hear Obama yesterday, how haltingly he spoke, how difficult it was to collect his thoughts to answer a question. I remember how the media ridiculed Al Gore for sounding wooden and stiff. Well, Obama did Gore one better, Obama could not cohertently collect his thoughts and it was obvious, despite the lavish praise the cable political newsies heaped on him for a fine speech. I found it boring and empty of substance, which describes Barack Obama perfectly. A man without substance, manufactured from the efforts of some Public Relations organization determined to bury the Clintons. Ain’t gonna happen.

I give Hillary credit for going onto the Factor show. She is willing to answer more straight forward questions than Obama whom just will in most cases talk in circles and never get to a point regarding anything.
It is also strange that most conservative candidates went and had interviews on ABC, NBC and CBS, yet Obama refused to ever go onto Fox? Why is the ultra liberal so afraid of conservative questions? The conservatives were not afraid of the liberal tainted ones?
Please Dem’s, Hillary is so much better qualified to lead a broader based majority of this country that Obama.

Obama doesn’t want for the people to know who he really is. He is proving to me more and more each day he isn’t capable of running this country. He strays away for his problems. I am sorry I don’t buy his speech yesterday. He shouldn’t even act surprise of the way wright is. I mean he did say he has known him for 20 long years and that he is like an uncle to him. How could he not know they way he was. Wright had those believes a very long time. He didn’t just come up with those in a week. Pleae that doens’t execuse him for seating there for 20 years and hearing those kind of sermons. He is a wimp and a phony.

This is sad to watch, everyone blaming one man for another mans mouth. But if your color is one way the same standard doesn’t apply.

When Obama got on Fox news Sunday, all the Hillary supporters complained Obama was legitimizing Fox. Now that Hillary is on O’reily they claim Hillary is the one with courage because Obama only goes to friendly media (of course ignoring the Sunday Fox interview).

I watch FOX news about 90% of the time. I also watch the O’Reilly factor. Today, he is going to interview Mrs. Hillary Clinton.
Hmmmmmm…I wonder what is going to happen.
I hope he asks her tough questions on her policies such as health care,(who is going to pay for it,and how)protecting our country from another terrorist attack, and her “need” to lie about major issues to the American people. Like, free-trade agreements that while in office her husband passed and she endorsed.
Now, she says she is basically against it.
As far as she being a stronger candidate, I do not necessarily believe that. What does she have to lose. She needs to project herself out there with all types of news stations especially with her being behind in the delegate count. To her, I think its just the political game, and she knows how to play it quite well. I give her that!
She is a smart talker and she knows how to cover all her bases. She also knows how to gather support from all of the Democratic power machines.
I think a lot of people do not think she would be where she is at politically if it weren’t for the fact she had married her husband, Bill Clinton. He is even now campaigning for her.
Maybe it is just me, but this whole situation gives me the “ewie jieves.”
Did our founding fathers of this country think we would have “political” dynasties with families running the country for long periods of time.
So far it has happened with the Adams family, Rosevelts and Bushes. Can we stand another 2 terms with another Clinton. God, we cannot trust her with the FBI, CIA, IRS, under her power.
Remember all the scandals she headed by her decisions during her husbands administrations. Firing all the staff for a agency because she did not care for them.
When the son Bush was running for office I do not remember his dad out there campaigning for him, like the Clintons. No thank you,

How can we have such a blind view of people? When Hilliary on the last debate ADMITTED to lying about Bosnia, saying she played a key role in Northern Ireland’s peace(which she didn’t), she opposed NAFTA, and sent your sons and daughters to war…while Chelsea stay home(now she wants it to end). This does not give her any more Presidential exp. than OBAMA. At least he’s being as real and truthful with the American people as he can. Some still don’t want that. What else can he do to prove he’s finish with Rev. Wright and Rev. Wright doesn’t speak for him. If you’re saying that he knew and agreed with Rev. Wright…then you’re saying all of White American agreed with slavery, taking free black men from their homes and hanging, beating, killing off their children so the white men can sleep with their woman. How do you think we have such a vast/shades among us. So, if you’re saying that you don’t agree and it was unfair…then give him the same chance. I feel when Rev. Wright spoke, the media took bits and pieces and fed the people what they wanted and some went CRAZY. Only now are we finding out that most people never heard the entire message. If you give me something I don’t want bits give me the whole truth or nothing at all. McCain said he didn’t like what Rev. John Hagee said that HURRICANE KATRINA was PUNISHMENT for NEW ORLEANS & HE DOSEN”T LIKE CATHOLICS, but no one is upset or cringing over that. I HATE THE DOUBLE STANDARDS WE HAVE IN AMERICA

Obviously O’Reilly is a Hillary supporter. What a crappy interview.

Why should she not go it’s free press.
Obama08

About O’Reilly haters
What is wrong with you people..do you let your bias color everything you see.
Tell me right now…have you ever seen an interview like that??
No..you have never seen a possible future president questioned with the gloves off. Do you want to see some fairy Msnbc questions, where everything is portrayed as a joke, and where prepared answers are allowed to stand on prepared spin?
He not only challanged her answers but offered incite into why they dont make sense to him
AND..she did excellent. Do you really think Obama could have held up to that kind of pressing on his beliefs? He would have chocked. Not only didnt she choke..but she held her own and even when you moved toward her she did not take offence and really impressed me with how much fight she had in her
I dont agree with her worldview..but that was best interview she has ever done–and that type of bantering is real world problem solving–not stiff speeches where no one can respond or prepared answers that are not challanged like on Msnbc or CNN
People hate fox because they have been watching a liberal slanted broadcast all their ives. When they see it slanted the other way it seems off to them. But this is what conservatoves have been putting up with forever. You have no right to cry foul on fox when the entire Media is liberal. Thats like a guy trapped in Cesspool complaining about the one thing in there that isnt crap. Your still surrounded by crap.
And Hillary does not have a 115 IQ. You just show how low your IQ is to think that. You cant get through Law school with anything under 125–and thats the bare minimum
