Hillary the fighter

Senator Clinton the fighter. This answer on having to be a fighter on health care is her strong suit. Her point in lampooning Obama's high-flying oratory is to say, I, too, had only the highest ideals about public service in Washington. But I know through experience, you need different tactics. This is her experience argument.

I cannot view for some reason. Objectively - truly - who is "winning" the debate?

Making one's claim as a "fighter" is not necessarily what we need as President, esp. when her style of fighting means not listening to other ideas; it's either her way or the highway.

Trumped? He has been hedging all night. Wow - I actually was a supporter but he sounds like he has no idea tonight. She is all over him.

Sen. Hillary Clinton remains as the most qualified candidate for president even after all the fuss that media make about Barak Obama, who's still really a unknown, in spite of popularity,who hevily borrows from Mrs. Clintons ideas and he continously parrots her words as if his own. Sen. Clinton's life long commitment to serviing America is far more inspiring than all of Barak Obama's words. Her tanacity, her spirit and courage is truly remarkable!

I take her lampooning of Obama and those of us who support him as an insult. I have never heard him insult those who support her. If she gets the nomination, it will be difficult to vote for her against McCain.

I support Obama for very concrete reasons (transparency, opposition to the war, extreme specifics on Guantanamo, restoring Habeas Corpus, etc). To have her paint us as religious zealots is insulting and unnecessary.

Transparency is easy when you don't hold a single hearing of your sub-committee. No meeting, no need to invite the public to attend. And in case you haven't noticed Kevin, Sen Clinton has also indicated she will withdraw from Iraq in a safe, careful and appropriate manner. Rhetoric and Charisma are no substitute for ACTION!
