Mark, NY — Fri, 29 Jun 2007 13:35:54 GMT

Clinton has a way to use strong language to hide her real worries. When she says "No one is more committed in getting out troops out of Iraq," she means some one is. When she says "Obama will out raise me in funding, but that doesn't matter," it does matter, and that really worries her. The fact of the matter is that Obama has made his haul with donations from real people and real voters, he hasn't accepted money from PACs and Lobbyists. So when Hillary has a large chunk of her funds from both PACs and Lobbyists, and is the favorite daughter of corporate interests, and still can't out raise a first term senator, there is a problem.

Maybe Clinton's "strong two months" are a media fabrication which doesn't accurately reflect everything going on outside the spin rooms? You said it best in your first paragraph - she won the debate because she won the post-debate spin. That might satisfy journalists but maybe the rest of us voters are looking for more?

When in God's name is the muckraking journalists of this country going to hammer the current occupants of the white house? I cannot believe that the pres and vice pres are so squeaky clean having been in politics this long. If this was Clinton and Gore (or for that matter Bush's father) the long knives of the press would have been out a long time ago. What dirt does the white house have on the journalists of this nation that they treat the president and vice president with kid gloves? Makes you wonder.

I'd have to agree with Chuck and Mark on this one. Due to the format it was hard to determine a "winner". I guess I don't get why hillary had the strongest performace. Is it because she had "if it were white women" comment? She seemed to invoke Bush and pander to the audience way too much for my taste and I'm black!! I still don't really get a feel for what she's about.... The campaign continues...

Does it occur to anyone that the real issue is socioeconomic, not simply segregation?
I lived in downtown st. louis for many years. We waited for the lottery system to pick our (white) son for the magnet school program because those were the "best" schools available to us at the time. He did eventually get chosen, and flourished, as a minority, in that outstanding school, although I was very uncomfortable with the long walk from home and bus ride to school that he had to make at such a young age.
Many of our neighbors who participated in the voluntary deseg program seemed to me to be a little frustrated with the fact that they had to bus their children out of the city in order to receive the "best" education available to them.
I think that all of us would have preferred that those funds be spent improving our neighborhood schools so that all of our children could attend school closer to home, parents could be more involved in their child's learning experience, and the whole issue of "getting" there would be safer for these young childre.

You think Hillary's comment that if AIDS was a disease of white women it would have been solved, wasn't extreme pandering at its finest? I just about winced at that statement. Take a step back. If Barack Obama had made the same comment, he'd quickly labeled a race baiter by the media and the very same people who are giving Hillary "high marks" for that comment. The frustration for me, and it has to largely with the media's double standard, is that Hillary Clinton can say just about anything without getting scrutinized. The converse is not true for the other candidates. Why is that?

If the worst thing that happens to Sen. Clinton in this campaign is that she raises only $28 million this quarter while Sen Obama raises $30 million--and if that's the best thing that happens to Sen. Obama--the whole shooting match is over. In truth, this money issue means nothing to anyone except those who are trying to create a contest where there really is none. Does anybody really believe that Sen. Clinton will lose the Democratic nomination due to insufficient funds? Give me a break. The only development of any significance in this campaign over the past three months is this: Sen. Clinton and Sen. Obama have stood on the same stage, along with the other Democratic candidates, and debated the issues three times and Sen. Clinton has prevailed every time. Now, that seems to me to be a tad more significant than whether or not Sen. Obama raises $2 million or $3 million more than Sen. Clinton.

@Joe, D.C.: The money totals may not be significant to you. I think the money totals are significant only in that the Democrats are outraising their Republican counterparts pretty handily. But what should be significant to everyone is the donor totals on these releases. If Obama reports the number of total donors that people are speculating about, that is very big. Especially if those donors come from the often maligned and underpolled 19-30 demographic. The idea that "unlikely voters will decide this election/primary" has been around for ages and it hasn't really worked so far. But if the Obama camp is receiving 200,000+ individual donations at this point in the primary season and Clinton can't keep up with that, then there is trouble ahead for the Clinton campaign. I'm not saying that she won't win the nomination. But let's see her win a debate after Labor Day (when people other than the First Read community might bother watching a debate) and see how things shake out. Which ever way things go I think the Democratic candidate field can't fail to provide a great nominee.

It was nice to hear a range of issues addressed last night that have not been until now. Unfortunately, it is difficult to get into them with much depth, when faced with limited time and some many candidates on stage.

The debates are about sound bites and Hillary's lines about HIV/AIDS and white women was a good one. That said, if Barack Obama were to say that, it would be seen as devisive and this morning the papers would be rolling out comparisons to Al Sharpton.

One of the questions highlighted the 30+% higher unemployment rate of black male high school *graduates*, as compared to white male high school *dropouts*. None of the candidates really addressed this question head on. They talked about education, the acheivement gap and graduation rates. Tangible policy stuff, I suppose. The uncomfortable truth is that when a white high school dropout is much more likely to be employed than a black high school graduate, it is not about acheivement or education.
This is a truth that people of color observe, and can cause them to tune out, because there's a feeling that it's unfair and they can't win.

Chuck and Todd,
you need a blog on bush's refusal to honor the congressional subpoena. this is shaping up to be a Nioxon vs. Congress-type constitutional battle over executive privilege. you have 4 or 5 pages on the dem debate, which will have no lasting impact until next november.
bush's refusal of the subpoenas, while expected, shows his disdain for the Consitution and the checks/balance in our system. for all of you who support the w's position, what would your position be if Clinton had taken the same during his impeachment and why do you think it's acceptable for bush? The parallel I see here is bush is fighting as hard as Nixon; Nixon was guilty. I prefer to have definite proof; however, logically, most people will conclude bush is ....discussion, anyone?

just how are we judging that Hillary won? Is it because she received a thunderous applause when she made the white woman comment?? Did anyone notice she went back to the Bush administration EVERY time a question was asked of her??? Money isn't everything, but if Obama can raise that type of cash and he's been on the national political landscape for such a short time I think that shows some real grassroot supports. I think last night's debate or any of the debates thus far will have very little impact on how gets eletected. I personally think George Bush lost all the debates he was in with Gore and Kerry, but yet he was the victor in both of those contest.

Congress needs to prove that it can come together on hard issues and get done what Bush and Cheney want done, regardless of what the majority of the American people want. You see we common people don't know what is good for us. We need to be in Iraq fighting terrorism, or we are not Patriots. We can't enforce the present laws on immigration. We need to pass new ones and try that. Its okay to have employers hire illegals, because that keeps cost down and companies can make more profit and help our economy. There is nothing wrong with our present health care system. All of our very important people like our politicians and CEO's have great coverage. Also our very poor and illegal immigrates are covered because they can't be turned away from hospitals because they are poor or on wellfare. The homeless have flop houses and soup shops. And as for out sourcing and job losses, don't worry, there will be plenty of low paying jobs still left after we realize that we don't have to stive for a better life. When we get to our two class society, the upper class and the lower class will be forever set. That will eliminate any pressure to move up. We will all be the same. No competition. Now how much more fair can this be.

She shamelessly takes credit for things and blames others for her blunders....e.g. Iraq is Bush's war. All the Hillary-backers are drinking their own Kool-Aid if they think she's won the past three debates. Clearly, Obama has been the viewers' choice in all three debates.

On Darfur, Hillary would create a no-fly zone over Sudan and added with war drums in the background, “If they fly into it, we will shoot down their planes!” Too hawkish for me, and reminds me she voted for this disasterous Iraq invasion.

world country of Kenya. You want to sell democracy
elect this well spoken bright shinning star. Prestige
will return to the land of the free and you can't even put a dollar amount on that. Prestige and money are

It is not pandering. It is called representative government whereby the people's view and wishes are empowered through their elected officials. An honorable representative will even advance a cause their constituency wants even though it clashes with their personal beliefs or religion. It is the American way. This is in contrast to the Bush/Lieberman form of government whereby the elected official follows their own individual beliefs against the wishes of their constituents (they call it courage) on they theory that election day is the only accountability moment and thereafter they are a term dictator.

I mean, we certainly routed al-Qaida and have bin Laden in jail and have a peaceful Afghanistan now with no more poppy production. Right?

As a white woman I must tell you I was OFFENDED by Hillary's white woman comment on HIV/AIDS! Yes, it was a "zinger" of a one liner clearly calculated to pander to the audience before her. What's sad is she sold out women to do it!! Does health care cover birth control? No. How about the fact that women have to organize and push for breast cancer research on their own? Why? Because the priorities of our healthcare industry aren't focused on finding a cure for terrible diseases like cancer or HIV/AIDS, instead they lie with finding a way to keep people paying for very expensive prescription drugs until their dying day. Or how about the fact that many people with HIV/AIDS have to choose between eating and paying for their meds? Nope, she didn't talk about any of those things. Instead, she went for a "cheap" applause line that pitted black and white against one another and at the expense of women no less. Of course, the African American community is even more negatively affected than women in our society; the fact that both communities are such an afterthought is truly disgraceful!!! If Hillary truly meant what she was saying on that stage, she could have made a joke at the expense of the system that is letting this happen, but did she do that? No. How about a more realistic "one liner" which points out the fact that this system has found an affordable cure for erectile dysfunction before even making HIV/AIDS drugs less expensive? Nope, she didn't do that ... Why do you ask? Who do you think is getting her to that $27 million dollar fundraising total for the second quarter? Selling out one group of Americans for another for an applause line, money and votes is shameful! You'd think we are talking about Republicans or something. Nope, just a candidate who's not as electable as her fellow opponents on stage and is trying to buy her way into the White House!
