>>>On the conference call, she [Clinton] also supported more financial help for the auto industry but insisted that the aid "not be unconditional money," hinting at possible changes that could effect labor unions. Clinton said the industry "should be willing to take a hard look at salaried and hourly employees, so that we know that we're getting the maximum return, maybe with changes in work rules."
==========
Smart move, especially considering that AIG is living fat dumb and happy on the bailout package that was passed for the banks.

>>>On Joe Lieberman’s future: "We're [Senate Democrats] going to be addressing that next week. And I'll have more to say about it once we're back in session and have had a chance to consult and consider the options."
==========
Obama and the Democrats owe Leiberman nothing. Let him caucus with them if they wish, but he doesn't deserve to chair any committees. He made his bed with the GOP. If he wishes to lie in it with them, then so be it. The shouldn't be kissing his ass just to get an extra vote in the senate.

>>>Has Obama asked HRC to ‘spearhead’ any issues in the next Congress?
"We've had an ongoing discussion going back many weeks now about our mutual commitment to the kind of changes we both campaigned on. And I have made it very clear that I am more than ready and willing to assist as a partner in the Senate to get the work done."
==========
I've heard everything from Secretary of State to Supreme Court for her. Personally, I think she could do the most good just where she is. Just my opinion.

>>>"Rahm Emanuel?" Clinton asked with a smile in her voice. "He's going to be accessible to me."

President Bush is a very simple individual, and has very simple goals. He will be very reluctant to do anything more for his nation, because he already has what he wants. Economically, his oil investments have paid big dividends. His "special interest" friends have done very well over the past 8 years. On forign policy, he still has our troops in Iraq, and very little in Afganistan. Politically, President Bush has just one simple message. He will do nothing more for America, until he gets one more prize for his economic friends. Socially, President Bush has done more to divide our nation than any President has done in the last 35 years. Be careful when making deals with this political devil, because one may end up very burned. Bush is a President, who is never what he seems, and always what he wants others to think he really is. This President is very emotionally conflicted, and cries out for clueless recognition from others. This individual is still very politically dangerous, and is plotting all the time. That is fact!!

I think the Dems want this stimulus package to go on Bush's bill rather than Obama's. It would be included in the deficit under Bush. Don't know for sure; just a guess. You know, to keep the Repubs from being able to say..."There he goes, spending like a liberal." (which they will do anyhow)

Eric in Salinas - They are pushing for doing something now because the American people and American businesses are going to get hammered in the 70 days or so between now and inauguration day. Think about it.. if the economy still goes down.. do you think anyone will spend anything during the holidays? What is typically the financial quarter that keeps alot of companies in business? If they dont try and stop the bleeding now, and get the economy at least stable, the economy is going to be alot worse next year.

If you think that Hillary is speaking out on the need for action regarding the economic crises before having discussed her thoughts and ideas with Obama you are dreaming. Hillary can play a big role in helping Obama lead this country out of the many crises that the GWB administration has gotten us into. And understand, she can do so as a compatriot of the new Presdient, or as a power grabbing maverick who attempts to trump the President. If as the former President Obama can help make her, and if as the latter President Obama can also break her. And she knows it.

As a part of the 5% of taxpayers I don't want to pay one more dime to bailout anyone at this point.. We're supporting the federal gov, the middle class, the poor, Wall Street, greedy exec's, inefficient businesses and pretty soon we won't be able to spend in the desperate retail sector, hire anyone to work, go out to eat, pay for college, pay our mortgages.

I personally don't know if it's a good thing or not (although having lived through 8 years of Bush policies, I have my doubts) but it's something that can wait until after the Democrats are in office without damaging our economy.

And by the way, Obama needs to appoint more women! so far the candidates for cabinet positions seem to be more white men and very few women or people of color. Where's the "diversity" that he promised?

I am ashamed of the blatant disregard for human life that our government has shown over the last 8 years and its time for republican voters, you know the personal responsiblity crowd, to step forward and take the blame with the "decider". Remember the uproar over Clinton lying about getting a bj in the oval office. We stopped the business of the country to try and impeach him. Not one peep from republicans as the current administration abused millions of lives with the war, violated national security protocol for personal gain, while Bush and Cheney---Tweedle de and Tweedly dumb---watched America's financial future and global reputation burn to the ground.
