He's released all documents and answered every question about Rezko. How about the Clinton campign releasing their tax records and her first lady files? If she claims so much experience during that time, why does she not want us to see her whitehouse papers? Does she really want the Obama camp to bring up all the shady dealings she's been apart of in the past?</description></item><item><title>Hillary hits two St. Patrick's Day parades</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/03/16/773962.aspx#774002</link><pubDate>Sun, 16 Mar 2008 15:59:20 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:774002</guid><dc:creator>Geoff in Brooklyn</dc:creator><description>The most under-reported poll result of the month are the polls that show a majority of democratic voters WANT the superdelegates to step in now and end the race between Obama and Clinton because they fear the race is becoming too damaging. Superdelegates are on the brink of ending this race (say, 3 or 5 at a time every day until it adds up to over 100). &amp;nbsp;The reason is that Hillary refuses to actually discuss the issues and instead attacks the almost inevitable nominee for things voter find irrelevant like Rezco. &amp;nbsp;Meanwhile, it's obviously a pre-emptive strike since Hillary has been less transparent on taxes and earmarks and Obama is about to make an issue of it. &amp;nbsp;A couple of more days of this and some big superdelegates are going to start calling for the troops to rally around Obama, I predict. &amp;nbsp;</description></item><item><title>Hillary hits two St. Patrick's Day parades</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/03/16/773962.aspx#774003</link><pubDate>Sun, 16 Mar 2008 15:59:23 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:774003</guid><dc:creator>John Stevens, Hillsdale IN</dc:creator><description>Obama when asked in the debates about Rezko states he was someone he once knew &amp;nbsp;.... but did not mention the $250,00 boost to his early campaigns.
