Bill Explodes But Then Apologizes
Wouldn't it have been better for Hillary, if, on the eve of the last two primaries, as practically everyone has her finally quitting the race, for Bill to have just kept his mouth shut?

Hillary must continue to draw contrasts with Obama, raise questions about the nature and extent of his associations with Rev. Wright and terrorist leader William Ayers, and raise more questions about his values in comparison with hers.

Obviously Clinton put herself in the ballgame by running an effective campaign and holding views that appeal to the voters. But after she crossed these thresholds, it has helped her that she is a woman.

"Bitter" is a good word, to describe some of what I feel -- but "mad as hell" are a few better words. And I have a son that is on his way to Iraq for his third or forth tour, so I am not only mad but scared.

Will Barack Obama's now famous "bitter" quote turn out to have been a big deal politically? Frankly, I have no idea. But here's a different question:...

Could our darling Dems please hold their fire at each other and set their sights on John McCain, who each day girds himself in more media-made Reagan Teflon than any Iraqi soldier was ever issued.

After days of near universal agreement that Obama's "bitter" comment was going to absolutely crush him, it turns out that most people in small towns don't care, and if anything, they kind of agree.

Gibson and Stephanopoulos focused mainly on trivial issues as Clinton and Obama faced off in Philadelphia. They, and their network, should hang their collective heads in shame.

Barack Obama committed a greater offense than Hillary's sniper fire lies by Washington, DC standards. He committed truth.

My friend Joe said, "on this screen of yours all anyone talks about is some guy who ordered orange juice instead of coffee, and was bad at knocking things over with a heavy ball, and said something about people in small towns being bitter."
Joseph C. Wilson | Posted 04.16.2008 | Politics
Like his comments about small town Americans, Obama has demonstrated a cavalier disregard for the work of Foreign Service and CIA Officers serving overseas.
Trey Ellis | Posted 04.16.2008 | Politics
Yes, Obama's gaffe was a big one and as his opponent she has every right to go after him but she never coupled that with an even more devastating critique of McCain.

It's anybody's guess how the state will shake out a week from today. But listening to voters in Pennsylvania, I'd guess it won't turn on the word "bitter," "gun" or "God."

The whole dust-up about Obama's statement about people being bitter is, well, overdone. Consider the following facts.

Fortunately for Obama, the mainstream press continues to assist him in ways Clinton can only dream about.
Arianna Huffington | Posted 04.14.2008 | Politics
By attacking Obama in a way that confirms every right-wing demagogic caricature of her own Party, Hillary has adopted the frames, lies, stereotypes and destructive clichés long embraced by the likes of Karl Rove.

No good effort at intelligent analysis, candor -- and what I heard as an attempt to convey a profound understanding of both what people feel and why they feel it -- goes unpunished.
John Farr | Posted 04.14.2008 | Politics
Why would Obama say what he said? It's probably because those issues really came up with the people he spoke to, those citizens he supposedly "demeaned."
Steven G. Brant | Posted 04.14.2008 | Politics
When it comes to walking the walk of using faith-based human relationship principles when designing and implementing political policy, Obama is more faithful to his religious principles than Clinton.
