    from the wikipedia link above

    In a March 6 interview with The Scotsman, she was quoted as saying: “We f***ed up in Ohio. In Ohio, they are obsessed and Hillary is going to town on it, because she knows Ohio’s the only place they can win”.[11] [12] “She is a monster, too — that is off the record — she is stooping to anything…You just look at her and think, ‘Ergh.’ But if you are poor and she is telling you some story about how Obama is going to take your job away, maybe it will be more effective. The amount of deceit she has put forward is really unattractive.” Power apologized for the remarks that night, saying that they “do not reflect my feelings about Sen. Clinton, whose leadership and public service I have long admired.”[13] In the wake of reaction to the remarks, she resigned from the campaign the next day. [14]

    She apologized.

    When is the Clinton campaign going to apologize for the “sinister” nonsense, for the 3am ad, for Clinton’s praise of McCain, for essentially betraying the party with her own ambition?

    Hillary as victim? Please. Though she held some of my sympathy once, she’s far more perpetrator than victim now.

    It is clear that Obama has captured the hearts and souls of those idealists who support him… and is equally clear that the political enemies of the Clintons are having a field day…

    But it still doesn’t make the questions that Hillary raises any less pertinent. You may not like the way she raises them, but you would better support your candidate if you thought more about those questions and how you are going to answer those and more this fall and spent less time indignant that she would raise them at all.

    It is easy to forget how many people started this campaign with “anbody but Clinton” … and yet, she still has a great deal of support. I don’t think it’s because she is the “underdog”.

    A lot of us supported her before she was one.

    We were just saving our money and effort until the real fight began. Who knew democrats would bankrupt themselves before the real fight in November.. and that so many of you would see this as a good thing?

    As for Samantha Power.. i don’t find her full remarks any better than the abridged (tho i can see why you do Ken).. but i do think it was a great way to get the core message of the current Obama campaign… (Hillary is underhanded) out there one more time… and so much more convincing when she “apologized” by giving lip service to Hillary’s record.. excellent political maneuvering.

    Kayleigh, you are quick to point out that political hacks know exactly what they are doing if it is something applied to Clinton.. why are you less so when attributed to Obama’s staff?

    there are clearly two different standards operating here.
