Or, as the New Yorker’s Ryan Lizza told me during a commercial break, “It’s the difference between someone who goes to law school and becomes a prosecutor and someone who goes to law school and becomes a law professor.” &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The question is, which do you prefer? Do you prefer a professor's approach or trial lawyer. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I think i prefer both.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Obama/Edward '08&lt;br&gt;Edward/Obama '08&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I like them both&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description></item><item><title>Obama re: Clinton: 'Secrecy'</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/31/441044.aspx#441144</link><pubDate>Wed, 31 Oct 2007 17:47:16 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:441144</guid><dc:creator>Yiannis, Baltimore</dc:creator><description>without a whimper? she stumbled pretty badly last night.

That was probably the strongest point made by anyone all night, if not all year.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I'd say Obama did the best, followed closely by Edwards, then Dodd. &amp;nbsp;All three campaigns advanced their causes forwards as a result of last night's debate, and Hillary has been damaged heavily. &amp;nbsp;</description></item><item><title>Obama re: Clinton: 'Secrecy'</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/31/441044.aspx#441175</link><pubDate>Wed, 31 Oct 2007 17:58:06 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:441175</guid><dc:creator>Mitchell Feldman, Vestal, NY</dc:creator><description>The Hillary train has been derailed. &amp;nbsp;Now lets see if the MSM will stop handicapping the horserace and instead begin evaluating the candidates. &amp;nbsp;We'll all benefit from that type of analysis.&lt;br&gt;Obama '08</description></item><item><title>Obama re: Clinton: 'Secrecy'</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/31/441044.aspx#441178</link><pubDate>Wed, 31 Oct 2007 17:58:53 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:441178</guid><dc:creator>Tuck, realworld, kansas</dc:creator><description>let's see, obama is now resorting to &amp;quot;don't vote for hillary&amp;quot;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;no reason to vote for obama except he's not hillary&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;he a homophobe&lt;br&gt;who misses votes and did NOTHING in illini congress.&lt;br&gt;yeah, lets elect him cause he's so inexperienced!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;wheeeeeeee</description></item><item><title>Obama re: Clinton: 'Secrecy'</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/31/441044.aspx#441198</link><pubDate>Wed, 31 Oct 2007 18:05:07 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:441198</guid><dc:creator>RAH</dc:creator><description>The &amp;quot;politics of hope&amp;quot; doesn't mean holding hands and singing Kumbaya! &amp;nbsp;It is being honest with the American people, restoring the constitution and bringing the people back into an open government.

He reached across to Repugnantcans to get them to sign off on these bills, which then passed overwhelmingly. Homophobe? Where'd you get that news? He's been very outspoken on gay rights issues. Did the campaign make a mistake with McGurkin? Yeah. But Obama saw that he could bring up an important issue and that's inclusion. Just because McGurkin has a differing view, and Obama clearly stated he did not support McGurkin's views, Obama wasn't about to turn his back on him or any other citizen who may not hold the same opinions. Obama's tent is large and welcoming. On the experience issue, he's almost elected legislative experience than Clinton and Edwards combined. But Washington experience has gotten into the mess we're in now. I'd prefer someone with an outsider's view who shows good judment to someone who has made the wrong decisions or no decisions for 30 years as a senator or congressman.</description></item><item><title>Obama re: Clinton: 'Secrecy'</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/31/441044.aspx#441417</link><pubDate>Wed, 31 Oct 2007 19:21:37 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:441417</guid><dc:creator>Amy B Portland ME</dc:creator><description>Edwards/Obama...I would support that.

Do you prefer a professor's approach or trial lawyer. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Bee, I like your analysis! I went to law school and became a public defender, so I must say I prefer the professorial touch. &amp;nbsp;I was able to see Sen. Obama's/Sen. Edward's debate performance through sound bites only, so my perspective is somewhat limited. &amp;nbsp;However, my concern is that Sen. Obama's deft and nuanced approach may be too subtle to capture the imagination of the electorate. &amp;nbsp;On the other hand, a deft and nuanced approach to matters would certainly be a welcome change in Washington. &amp;nbsp;Combine this with Sen. Edwards' energy, high spirits and willingness to (metaphorically speaking) get his hands dirty, and we've got ourselves a winning ticket folks!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I worked as a minor minion on Sen. Obama's senatorial campaign; initially, I did not want him to make a presidential bid. I wanted him to stay in Illinois and do something for the people who gave him a national platform. I see now that I've been selfish. &amp;nbsp;Sen. Obama belongs to the nation. &amp;nbsp;So, with respect, I believe the ticket should be:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Obama/Edwards '08&lt;br&gt;Embrace the Fate! </description></item><item><title>Obama re: Clinton: 'Secrecy'</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/31/441044.aspx#441600</link><pubDate>Wed, 31 Oct 2007 20:42:44 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:441600</guid><dc:creator>Sara,  Cedar Rapids, Iowa</dc:creator><description> &amp;quot;I would like all of the other candidates to make public all of their emails and other communication between themselves and their spouses. &amp;nbsp;If it is official White House business, then fine, but anything other than discussions on policy or the like should not be made available to the public. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Carrie, Eastern Iowa &amp;quot;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Carrie, it is official White House business that Bill (who I adore) is refusing to allow the archives to release until 2012. Hillary wants to claim she was intimately involved in her husband's administration, but doesn't want to release the documents to back that up. Maybe you don't need to know what if anything her involvement in the WH was, but she continues to make claims, that others in DC are false. She has gone from claiming she authored the original s-chip bill and got it passed, to stating last night that she was &amp;quot;someone who helped bring...the children's health insurance program to fruition during the year at the White House...&amp;quot; &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Here original claims regarding her involvement in the language and passage of S-chip were disputed by the GOP and Democratic Senators who actually were involved in writing and passing it, and now her involvement is watered down to she's &amp;quot;someone who helped bring...to fruition during the year at the White House...&amp;quot; &amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;You may not believe that Hillary owes the voters facts to back up her claims, even when her claims are disputed, and appear to be false. But I believe she owes the voters a duty of full disclosure. and without full disclosure any one who votes for her is allowing emotions, gender pride, or a desire for the return of the glory days of Bill Clinton, not the facts, to guide their support. To me, blind faith is naive. &amp;nbsp;I prefer to fully educate myself prior to supporting a candidate, and if a candidate prevents that, either through double talk, refusing to release records, or other means, I will not support them.</description></item><item><title>Obama re: Clinton: 'Secrecy'</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/31/441044.aspx#441616</link><pubDate>Wed, 31 Oct 2007 20:48:33 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:441616</guid><dc:creator>Sierra, SF</dc:creator><description>Shadow, Hamden, CT: '...I'd say Obama did the best, followed closely by Edwards, then Dodd. &amp;nbsp;All three campaigns advanced their causes forwards as a result of last night's debate, and Hillary has been damaged heavily...'&lt;br&gt; &amp;nbsp; &lt;br&gt;Last night I liked Edwards better, Shadow&lt;br&gt;The wheel fell off hte Forked Tongue Express, last night.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Hillary couldn't give an honest answer on Social Security, Iran, Iraq and IDs for illegal immigrants.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Obama and Edwards should have been doing this months, ago&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Actually, Biden had a good night&lt;br&gt;Dodd is good on Iraq, but he's toooooo wordy.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Hillary Clinton gives the Republicans the best chance to win the Presidency. &lt;br&gt;Don't give them that chance !!</description></item><item><title>Obama re: Clinton: 'Secrecy'</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/31/441044.aspx#441617</link><pubDate>Wed, 31 Oct 2007 20:48:52 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:441617</guid><dc:creator>Mitchell Feldman, Vestal, NY</dc:creator><description>Van, you read the post on First Read, Gerald McEntee, president of AFSCME is a close colleague of Bill Clinton's. &amp;nbsp;This endorsement was a given. &amp;nbsp;Man, are you grasping for straws.</description></item><item><title>Obama re: Clinton: 'Secrecy'</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/31/441044.aspx#441629</link><pubDate>Wed, 31 Oct 2007 20:54:49 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:441629</guid><dc:creator>Sierra, SF</dc:creator><description>Bee: '...Folks, Check out Mark Penn spin on Hillary's answer.

This is the best chance the Democrats have had in years to regain the White House and possibly a solid majority in Congress. &amp;nbsp;Americans desperately want a new direction...new ideas to solve the problems of education, health care, the environment. &amp;nbsp;They want a president who will work in a bipartisan way and will work to unite blue states and red states into one nation. &amp;nbsp;Barack Obama has the character and the integrity to do the job. &amp;nbsp;He is beholden to the people's interests and not the special interests. &amp;nbsp;Experience does not always equal good judgement. &amp;nbsp;Hillary, Chris Dodd, Joe Biden and &amp;nbsp;John Edwards all voted to support Bush's invasion of Iraq. Obama opposed this foreign policy disaster from the outset. &amp;nbsp;He is the clear choice to succeed George W. Bush on January 20, 2009. &amp;nbsp;</description></item><item><title>Obama re: Clinton: 'Secrecy'</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/31/441044.aspx#445558</link><pubDate>Fri, 02 Nov 2007 20:31:23 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:445558</guid><dc:creator>Harmony</dc:creator><description>Hillary was losing it - I saw the steam coming out of her ears.

It's all about appearances and manuvering instead of what you stand for. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;What else do they have in common? &amp;nbsp;Scarey.&lt;br&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
