All Clinton can do is tear people down, but she doesn't like it when it's done to her. How dare her think that she is the only person alive that knows what to do about issues facing this country. She has been equally appalling to McCain as well as Obama. I hope that you can't tell whether I am a Democrat or a Republican. Just as long as you can tell that I despise this self-centered Lady Macbeth.

3:00am again?

Are we really going to have an economic crisis that occurs at 3:00 in the morning? No. Would you be ready if it happened? Doubtful. More likely you would wait until the morning like every other President would.

Enough already. We already know that McCain is poorly versed in economics and apparently foreign policy as well. Save it for the candate competing in the general election.

Terry, Great Plains — Thu, 27 Mar 2008 17:50:17 GMT

Nice Try Hillary. The last time you utilized the 3 am call you were sleep deprived( Bosnia " misspeak").

I do not agree with McCains' Herbert Hoover positions on the economy, but what in your back ground shows us you are ready to lead. Your solutions do not include modifying the Bankruptcy code which would force lenders to negogiate with creditors on interest or house value( Obama's plan). In typical " Janus" fashion you supported a draconian bill to look conservative and was relieved it did not pass. What kind of leadership and judgment does that show.

Is everyone in this campaign season a hit man? It seems like candidates cannot respectfully disagree with one another or the American people delights in cat fights and political bickering.
If Hillary disagrees with McCain, I don't like to hear First Read saying "hits him/her". I want a politics of dialogue, not finger pointing.
Obama and Hillary both have been hitting each other like mad. But it is hard to refrain from responding verbally when you are constantly bashed.

My roof blew off, my dog died, my wife is mad at me, but things will be allright because I know you're there. (Loose quote.)

However, this red phone thing and 3 a.m. is getting a little cartoonish.

"Sometimes the phone rings at 3am in the White House and it’s an economic crisis. And we need a president who is ready and willing to answer that call."

So, will you be lucid enough to make a sound judgement at 3am, or will you be "sleep-deprived?"

Clinton hits McCain on job training

Go McCain, Go! — Thu, 27 Mar 2008 17:55:42 GMT

The phone shouldn't be ringing at the White House during an economic crisis. Unless there's a bill to sign into law. Otherwise, THE PRESIDENT IS POWERLESS on the economy.

If Hillary and Obama want to change education, health care, economics, taxes, and everything else then they should STAY IN CONGRESS, WHERE THE LAWS ARE MADE. Because the President can only agree or disagree, and if he disagrees, he can STILL BE OVERRIDDEN.

I don't know where in the last 70 years we forgot that the President is the commander-in-chief and enforcer of laws, NOT A KING. The only candidate who seems to understand this is McCain, who is primarily motivated by national security, which is, SURPRISE, the President's primary function.

Don't like McCain's national security policies, FINE, ELECT A CONGRESS THAT WILL STAND UP TO HIM.
Democrats call Bush the great evil, but their Speaker of the House and Senate Majority Leader are just as much to blame.

McCain's the only one qualified to manage a national defense.

I am an Obama supporter, and in the past week or so I got to the point that I swore I would not vote for Hillary in the general - I would have written in Obama - but I would vote for the Hillary represented here - in a General Election (IF she gets the nomination FAIRLY).

Kaye,NC — Thu, 27 Mar 2008 17:58:53 GMT

"Sometimes the phone in the White House rings at 3am and it's an economic crisis"???? Wait, let me guess...she'll be "ready on Day One" because she has "35 years of experience" at answering the "3am phone calls" that might come on "Day One" but she'll be ready because of that "35 years of experience", etc.,etc. It goes on and on.

I too, always had respect and admiration for Senator Clinton,(in fact,as a woman, I was excited about the prospect of her being in the race) but her campaign is doing her an injustice and damaging her reputation. At least, I HOPE it's a case of bad advice from her advisors. I don't want to think that she personally has been the "decider" in all the truly bad decisions that have been made by her campaign lately, but then again.............I can't imagine that she relinquishes control on many things that involve her.

Mrs. Clinton owns the "3 oclock" turf and does a great job with it framing McCain and his lack of economic policies and knowledge to voters with it. It was also about time for the 90's "peace or prosperity" line. For us to weren't in middle school during the 90's and had to endure 12 years of Reagan-Bush-I policies, the economics of the 90's were good.

The Republican and neo-cons economic and trade policies are responsible for the job losses in the United States. Also, the current President Bush's deregulation of the banking and mortage industry is responsible for the credit problems that the citizens of the United States faces today. This is what happenes when you fail to understand that the citizens of the United States pay your salary, not any corporation. You are obligated to serve the best interests of the nation, not any special interest group. The troubles that this nation is experiencing today have been caused by Republicans and the Republicans alone.

It becomes more clear with every passing day. McCain will probably kick the bucket before he finishes his first term, Billary woos rednecks because they are the only ones who will buy her crap, and Obama is looking for an intelligent vote? An exercise in futility. Billary is destroying any chance she might have in this, or the next election, and what is she going to do if Obama gets in? Run against him in 2012? She should have stayed on as first lady, just going from Bill to George W. At least she might have been useful. Noel, you are right. If she'd been doing what she should have been doing at 3:00am, this wouldn't be happening. Oh, and she might have been able to get a job with what's her name, the call girl from new York.

Here is a piece of an article I read on internet. I know nothing convinces MSNBC that Obama is a liar but this may convince you.
On Monday, the Obama campaign responded to Hillary unveiling comprehensive plan to deal with the housing crisis by attacking her for taking contributions connected to sub prime lenders. Campaign manager David Plouffe said: "If we're really going to crack down on the practices that caused the credit and housing crises, we're going to need a leader who doesn't owe those industries any favors."
As it turns out, those were just words… Today, Senator Obama gives an economy speech followed by a fundraiser at - you guessed it - one of the top 10 issuers of sub prime loans in America, Credit Suisse. In fact, Senator Obama has taken more money from the top 10 issuers of sub prime loans than BOTH Senator Clinton and Senator McCain

- Obama has taken $1,180,103 from the top issuers of sub prime loans. [cq.com]
- Obama received $266,907 from Lehman. [Cq.com]
