    It's really amusing to see all this. I like this comment on Andrew Sullivan's blog:

    You'd have thought that the Clinton people would have wanted to downplay the Richardson's endorsement of Obama. And, if they hadn't squawked so much, I bet it would have been a one- or two-day story. But here we are, nearly two weeks after Richardson did the deed, and the press is still talking about it--because the Clintons won't shut up about it. I don't see how this helps Hillary. Seriously, the Clinton people should just let it go.

    This goes another step into the Twilight Zone. If Obama was in 2nd place and had a huge number of campaign breakdowns, it would prove to everyone he wasn't ready. When Hillary has them, what does it mean? Someone please answer. She has "experience" in two presidential campaigns. If this is what "experience" does to her, she shouldn't use it as a campaign theme. How can she claim to be ready on "day one" of being president if she can't even manage a competent campaign? Why would a person trust her to manager the White House and the executive branch of the United States government?

    And with Hillary's continual self-inflicted gashes, she has the nerve to say someone else is not electable and she is. Someone explain. Thanks in advance.

    Taking It Back: Hillary Withdraws Denial of Obama Comment
    by Aaron Bruns

    An hour after Senator Clinton seemed to deny telling NM Gov Bill Richardson that Barack Obama couldn’t win the general election in November, a spokesman backtracked — telling reporters who’d been at the press conference that she misheard the question.

    Asked at her media availability today whether or not she told Governor Bill Richardson that Obama can’t win in November — as reported by ABC News — Clinton said she wouldn’t talk about private conversations, then launched into an answer on why she feels she can win.

    When the reporter followed up by asking “so that’s a no?” Clinton said “That’s a no.”

    While reporters interpreted that response as an answer to the original, direct question on her alleged comments, her campaign now says she thought she’d been asked whether she would give an answer or not. Spokesman Mo Elleithee says Clinton told him that her “no” meant she was continuing to refusing comment on that private conversation with Richardson.

    Watch the video here and decide for yourself what she meant.

    So, counting McCain's $13 million, Obama outraised them both combined.

    Bill C..." I really really really want to be back in the Whitehouse"


    It does make you wonder though, would Hilary be cagey enough to put Bill in as her Vice President?
