If she is sincere with these emotional moments, fine. But I have a VERY strong suspicion that this is the very same ploy that was used before New Hampshire and she ended up coming from way behind and winning. I just hope the American people are smart enough not to fall for this. Even if it is sincere, you should not be swayed by whether someone gets choked up during their speeches.

Oh, no! Not the crying card again!

Maybe the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers should join the Secret Service detail to prevent flooding in Wisconsin.

You gotta be kiddin me! Crying Again? What a phony!

why do you guys think she is making this up? is it possible that she actually can be moved? i have neve rmet so many awful people. i WILL NOT VOTE DEM IF OBAMA WINS. YOU GUYS ARE AWFUL! I AM A DEM OF 40 YEARS, AND I WILL NOT VOTE FOR HIM. HIS SUPPORTERS ARE PATHETIC BASHERS.

So with Texas and Ohio on the line, she decides to play the crying card again to try and gain Wisconsin in the process?

I really hope this ridiculousness slips under the radar this time. I feel for the woman with the mortgage problem, but not the other woman who's using her bonafide tear trick agian.

Crying is now a strategy to get elected to the Presidency of the USA.

You can't make this stuff up.

No Tony,

Clinton is pathetic, our job is to judge- she is a terrible choice for president....

clinton, who has never been known to cry in over 35 years of public life is now doing it at very expedient moments. Do I think the tears are real? Yes. Do I think the tears are because she's sensitive to others all of a sudden? No. I think the tears are for herself. She's walking around all day long every time she loses holding back these emotions of fear and upset that she might not be president. Then, when an emotional moment comes like the one above, then they come out.

One of the better descriptions I've read describing the sub-prime situation. Take a moment and read it. Forget about Hillary's emotion.

"Confused about what the sub-prime mortgage meltdown means for the economy and your money?

Well first, let's call a spade a spade. These risky mortgages aren't really so complex or exotic —they're junk mortgages, plain and simple. Sub-prime is just a euphemism bankers have whipped up to disguise their risk.

It's been a familiar theme in the last few years, as other Wall Street word-meisters have taken to re-labeling risk as well. Leveraged buy-out firms are now called "private equity" shops, junk bonds now are "high yield," and hedge funds are supposedly, well ... hedged. It's a far cry from 20 years ago, when Drexel Burnham was firing up its junk bond machine.

Back then, CNN founder Ted Turner had no problem boasting that junk bonds were for "people who couldn't borrow from the bank." He was right. And while Turner Broadcasting survived, Drexel and hundreds of other high-yield borrowers didn't. The fallout helped to exacerbate the Savings and Loan crisis, the real estate bust of the early 90s, and the recession of 1991-92. But at least investors were warned of the risk — the bonds belonged in the junkyard when it came to credit quality.

Not so this time around. Although the housing bears have been warning the risky features of mortgage lending in recent years, those cautious few were laughed off. Few really talked about just how "sub" the sub-prime borrower really was.

Well, now we know. Not only were millions able to borrow with no money down, no proof of income, not even proof of legal status, the Mortgage Bankers Association now says nearly 14 percent of those junky borrowers were delinquent on their mortgage payments at the end of 2006 — even with the economy at near full employment.

Now that it's all over, except the crying, Washington is wading into the mess. With estimates floating around this week that 2.2 million Americans may lose their homes to foreclosure, Democrats are calling for hearings into so-called "predatory" lending practices. Yes, the very same lawmakers who turned a blind's eye to years of lax lending in their own backyard (at Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac) now want to turn millions of Americans into victims of the housing boom they championed.

It's going to get messy, and that's why investors are frightened, and rightly so. As in the wake of other financial crises such as Enron, Orange County and Long Term Capital, the Fed, lawmakers and lenders are cracking now that the game has come to an end. Where were they to protect unqualified borrowers a year or two ago, when the trashy mortgage party was just kicking off?

What the market is saying is that the hangover is here and it's going to be a doozy. Mortgages will be far harder to come by, down payments will go way up, home prices will continue to go down, and the money machine that was the $6.5 trillion mortgage industry will grind to a halt. That will hit the brokerage stocks, the banks, the homebuilders and the housing products stocks right in the bottom-line.

And with those companies making up more than 30 percent of the value of the S&P 500, there's likely more fallout to come."

@Tony, I am a woman, and I am emotional but you do not happen to cry in public on the campaign trail before key races. We saw her in the public eye for years and her eyes were always dry -even when her husband cheated, even when her business partner was suspiciously killed. I won't vote for her in the general election, not because supporters like you are supreme annoying self-pitying excuse-makers on her behalf, but because she is a liar. Period. A "congenital liar" as she was dubbed years ago. Obama '08, or, McCain '08. Anybody but Hillary Clinton.

Maybe she really DOES (and I say this as a die-hard OBAMA SUPPORTER) have empathy for people, but it's up to the voters to keep this issue totally separate from the issues that are really relevant to this election...if we don't, SHAME ON US!!!But when people really think about it, it really doesn't look very good with her being the first female to run as one of the leading possible nominees and this is the second time she's "cried". (I have my doubts about the first time - all I HEARD WAS HER VOICE CRACKING!!!) The whole world has access to the internet...I really don't think it bodes well for us to have a female running for president who's already crying...we need a strong, cool, calm and collected MAN...PERIOD!!!

Tony,

I second you. These people who think she is disingenious must not have a heart themselves!

Did all of you who say these negative things realize that she was reacting to a woman and child who were losing their home? Wouldn't you be upset if you heard this from a child?

The Hillary Bashing is getting old! What is really sad is when Democrats do it to one of their own. Shame on you Obama supporters!

She's an embarrassment to the female gender.

oh, I believe her tears are real, but hardly motivated by the reasons she claims. You know, if Hillary feels so strongly about the issues she is stumping on, why did she hold back and wait until she was running for president to start pushing these causes??? Maybe all these great ideas were lost among the missing subpoenaed papers found in her white house closet, along with the photograph of her and Bill with the "slum lord" Resko. what a joke.

I was there and she was NOT weeping! She was, I say, moved by this young girl and her mother, but she was NOT crying. Besides, having emotions is NOT a sign of weakness. It IS a sign of a human politician, something we Americans are not used to.

Weepy weepy, boo hoo hoo! This is why women should be aht home! How can we servive this! Send them to the democrate build camps in north Dakota! They built em, let them use them.

I agree with joe. At least somebody hear has there head screwed on right.

Hey joe, you can't fix stupid right.

To Tony. I agree that the criticism for Hillary can be unfair at times. The same is true for the criticism for Barack. To generalize and close your mind because of the stupidity of some is wrong and I hope you reconsider. I am proud of both of them and would be proud to vote for either. My preference is Barack because he has a better chance of bring us back together after years of division.

She is mixing it up a little bit, in NH and Connecticut she did this the day before the election. Perhaps after losing Connecticut she decided she needed to drop the emotional bombs a bit more frequently.

It is pretty amazing, "35 years" of robotics and then all of the sudden 3 events in a few weeks.

Actually she is pulling out all stops...

Crying in WI.

Nothing better than taking all your failed strategies and employing them all at once.

It is time for a real change, not just another Bush to Clinton change.

Back a winner in November, Vote Obama '08
http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2008/president/national.html

I've seen Mr. Bush blubbering like a liberal a couple of times in public .

What's the big deal with Hills shedding a tear or two?

I've cried like a baby myself a couple times as an adult. Who cares?

Yes, she was truly moved by this woman's plight. My prayers are with this mother and many more like her. However, Hillary used this quasi-scripted moment to turn on the tear spigot once again... The forum was set-up to bring about real life stories such as this, she was waiting for this moment. She took full advantage to try to show how much she cares. Hillary is cold and calculated, she does nothing without it being part of the script. If she's that moved, then why don't she go in her pocket and pay-off this woman's mortgage in full. If she did that, then i'd switch my vote to Hillary.

After contributing time and money to Obama campaign I am absolutely repulsed by his supporters. I forgave the D Punjab crack but this pattern of behavior with this candidate's team should be sobering. How is this group going to bring anyone together? By the way I would love to have the same group of people that fought the wars in the nineties fight again with the same results. I am not against peace and prosperity.

it is always before a key vote if she keeps this she may actually win the GE.
OMG please tell me you guys are noy buying this, the same happen in New Hampshire and connecticut, please stiop this... you guys have to stop her, stop the drama

The sexist double standard, again by Obama supporters, is heartbreaking. I don't hear word one about his commenting on her attacking because she's too emotional the other day, nor his saying that her "claws" had come out because of his success in the primaries. Obama makes his supporters weep with his oratory, but does that make them weak or strong in their support of him? Why does shedding a tear, showing some real empathy for someone in need, make Hillary weak? If Obama is truly interested in moving the country out of the divisions of the past, he had better take a good look in the mirror first. You folks should do the same.

Senator Clinton is not perfect but to listen to the Obamabots, she is the anti-christ. I am so sick of all the vitriol and bile spewing out of the mouths of Senator Obama's cult followers. You obscene misogynists people are driving the nail in the coffin of the candidacy of Senator Obama should he win the democratic nomination. I predict a good portion of Senator Clinton's supporters will either not vote or vote republican. Tone down your hatred people and stick to criticizing the issues. If you hate women, at least please be honest in your commentary.

Must mean she's broke again. She found out her campaign was broke on January 7. Wasn't the election on the 8th? Joe Trippi announced it. Dec election funding commission had just come out: $5 mill in unpaid debts. Hillary couldnt pay workers in NH, or rent.

Then she cried Feb 4, day before Super Tuesday, which ate up her $5 million in 22-state ads, and she was still down the $5 mill reported in the election committee at the end of Dec.

They started fundraising on the web the night of the 5th and Hillary admitted she loaned the campaign on the morning of Feb 6.

She's had to run ads in WI, which she wasn't planning on doing, rent stadiums in TX, and pay for ads, rally spots and ads in OH.

TPM reports her expenditures are about $20 mill./month. Has she raised $20 mill since Feb 5, because that's what she needs to pay for this month and Mar 4 at a bare minimum.

She may be in the same position Bill RIchardson was in. He ran out of money. And her donors were not happy campers the morning of the 6th. They were shocked to discover that she hadn't budgeted her money beyond Super Tuesday in that reported morning conference call.

What will make Hillary cry is the thought that she had to leave the race because of money because she loses the presidency, and will have to wait another 8 years for another chance.

People have been losing their homes for the past year. Why didn't she take action then?

I don't think we're heartless, but this election is not for mayor or even governor...this person will represent the US around the world!!! As we all know, these are very dangerous times all around the world and we need someone with a strong persona to deal with some very trying times. I just don't think this emotional behavior will earn her respect from some others in the world...some, who already don't treat women equally as we do.

UHHH...ms. CLINTON has been a Senator...she was in a position to have done something a loooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnnnnggggggggggggg time ago..

I think that the whole Q&A was staged.(duhh) What will ms. clinton do for me...me knew me could no afford mortgage pymt when ARM reset....if other get free low interest...me get harmed.....what about me????? give renters money so that me can buy a house and get reeeel low interest raaate frozen forever......what will happen in 5 years??? another freeze?

Hey voters in WISCONSIN,TEXAS, OHIO and PA!!!

Don't fall for Hillary's crap, her and Yosemite McCain...

OBAMA 08!!!!!

You know what? If any of you ever did any research on Hillary Clinton, or read her books, you would know damned well this woman cares about people, particularly women and children. Whether it's good for her campaign or not, she started out 35 years ago just like she says advocating for women and children. You can't tell me that 35 years ago she knew she was going to be running for president in 2008 and thought it would be a good strategy to conveniently get emotional when necessary. I would like to see any of you uncaring, hateful people do what Hillary Clinton is doing or even try. The fact of the matter is, it is truly SAD that these people are losing their homes, SAD and UNFAIR, and ridiculous in a country such as the United States. I'm another voter who will never vote for Barack Obama as long as I see hate spouting from his supporters. I don't really think any of you know what you're talking about and are hating Hillary Clinton for no reason whatsoever. This is a woman who even when she made some mistakes, picked up and kept going, and I don't think anyone will question how much she has done for human rights in America and abroad. She and Bill have both done a lot for the working people and human rights. I don't know why I keep reading these posts other than I'm hoping to see something positive, but always find myself angrier at Barack Obama than when I first logged on to my computer. I think the people who question whether it is more difficult for a black man to become president then it is for a woman, well I think that question has been answered now hasn't it?

OMG, again. That's just why we don't need a soft (?) crying, give me a hanki, woman in the White House. She needs to give it a break. They are people all over the USA in this poor woman's situation. She doesn't know that. I hope Wisconsin doesn't fall for this act. Go vote for Obama. Send her a big case of kleenex in November, she may need it before then.

I don't doubt that she feels--and I'm okay with that. I just think she's a political animal above all else. I have to wonder if this was a set up.

hillary is going to cry her way back to the white house....it's depressing to find out that this is the person women choose to champion their cause!!!!

The next thing you know, she'll be fainting at Obama's speeches.

I am so sick of all the vitriol and bile spewing out of the mouths of Senator Obama's cult followers. You obscene misogynists people are driving the nail in the coffin of the candidacy of Senator Obama should he win the democratic nomination. I predict a good portion of Senator Clinton's supporters will either not vote or vote republican. Tone down your hatred people and stick to criticizing the issues. If you hate women, at least please be honest in your commentary.

Earlier today you were calling yourself "cj".

You Republican weenies are a bunch of wussies.

Ya can't fix stupid....

Cankles is a FRAUD - always was and always will be.

Funny, I didn't see Cankles shed a tear on 9/11/01.

Wake up people, this woman is the devil in a pant suit. And Obama is a slicke used car salesman. If you are willing to trust either of these two libs with your family's security, then you certainly have a death wish.

I was there too. She was far from crying. I found myself tearing up when I heard this mom's story. Why shouldn't Hillary be able to get a little choked up too?

Response to Tony: WE beleive she is faking because she has cried three times now on the campaign trail: NH- A day before the vote and when she saw her political career going up in smoke. CT-State she was slightly behind and again just a day before the vote. Now Wisconsin where she is trying to stem off Obama's momentum and again sees her political career flashing before her eyes!!

She is so fake it's sad she did it before washington, she did it before NH and now, oh my god, she is so full of it.

-c j

-joe

-Bushman

ONE PERSON, three different post names...

My friends, this is how desperate and pathetic the Republic Party cheerleaders have become!!!

OBAMA!!!

OBAMA 08!!

OBAMA!!!

OBAMA 08!!!

Boohoo she is soooo pathetic

She is an insult to true feminist

To all of you who don't believe her tears are real, I will just say that maybe you have never been as tired as this woman is now. You've never cared about something so deeply, and worked so hard, and you still know that in spite of all your efforts, these problems still exist. And on top of that, you face this unending vitriol from people who question your basic humanity in spite of your efforts. Sometimes it all just gets to you and you choke up.

To the Obama supporters who continue to viciously criticize Sen. Clinton (and I know that this isn't coming from all his supporters, just some), I say that if you are truly interested in change, the first thing you will need to change is yourselves. If you want to end politics as we know it, then BE the change you want to see. Right now, your venomous rants are convincing me that there will be no reaching across the aisle to reach bipartisan solutions if Obama would become president, there would only be more endless character assassination. How are you possibly going to bring diverse groups together if you can't even speak civilly about another Democratic candidate? Or do you expect the president to bring about all the change? If that's what you think, then you really are unaware of how much work there will be for YOU to do and just how difficult it is to bring about change.

Actually she is pulling out all stops...

http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2008/president/national.html

I can't believe the hatred and divisive attitudes coming
from the people who are supposed to be for the candidate who says he is the unifying candidate. I was at the Clinton rally in Kenosha. This question was genuine, concerning the single mother and her daughter. The daughter asked the question.
Hillary Clinton's response
was heartfelt and personal.
Come to think of it, when have we, so far, ever witnessed this genuineness from Obama? Possibly the
Obama Zombies actually don't know themselves about
the deeper, more genuine and human feelings. The only true consciousness comes from this place. Hitler had his charismatic,
mesmerizing speeches too.
Shells are hollow, imitators are a dime a dozen. Hostile, divisive,
hateful people. Shame on
you. Apparently you have never actually listened to
the wisdom and understanding that comes from experience. A black woman stood next to me at a Hillary rally in Chicago;
she had worked for Obama
in his office. She was for
Hillary because she found
that she couldn't accept his arrogance toward others. What do you really know about him?
I was a young Robert Kennedy supporter, and worked for his campaign.
I remember tears in his eyes. I remember his deep
compassion for others. Originals are originals.
I've only heard comparisons
that those supporting Obama
use. Why can't he stand alone in his original poise? When we must think
clearly about this, who of
the two democratic candidates is actually her
own original person? Heal
your hatred; it's not good for our country.
Think!

To the posters who questioned why, if Clinton cared about these issues didn't she do anything before, she was a Senator from the minority party...if you'd been paying attention the last 7 years, you might have noticed that the Republicans ran everything...you could ask the same question of Obama..why didn't he address these issues the last 3 years he was in the Senate...same answer..Republicans wouod not let them. why wasn't he in the Senate making those non-partisan deals he claims to be so good at?
Questions for Obama supporters..have you ever seen him in a townhall meeting? Have you ever seen him take questions from the audience or allow them to speak? Have you ever seen him where he wasn't scripted?

If you think these tears are genuine, you need to see a psychiatrist.
She's Hillary Clinton! There's not an emotional cell in her body!

The subprime mortgage meltdown is a serious problem, and it interests me that Hillary had the insight to try and do something before this meltdown occurred. Yet another reason why I am sure Hillary would make a great president. Also, I am touched by this story. I think there is some invidious hate out there. It is a shame that we Democrats are creating serious rifts between us. What is so terrible about Hillary? I think she is an amazing person and great leader. She has devoted her life to helping those who were invisible in our society, including blacks, latinos, women, children, the poor, and working class Americans. Call her whatever you may, but she certainly has the best plan to help with the mortgage foreclosure crisis. I haven't heard much substantive plans from Obama or McCain (who I REALLY LIKE) with regard to the mortgage crisis facing America. Call Hillary what you may, but she definately has a workable solution here, something that Obama lacks.

Does the White house really need all the weeping emotion? Come on...especially right before another Tuesday od voting.

I also enjoy the "Clinton asked local officials if they could provide any help to the woman." comment. She is the canidate with solutions right? Then why is she passing the buck to someone else? Where is Chelsea with the coffee for everyone?

Obama 2008!

Please its Brat Stop not Brat Shop.

Please...my sister used to play the weepy thing more effectively.

As for the woman with the adjustable rate mortgage: YOU SIGNED THE CONTRACT! Did you not read the part where the price would go up per month? I'm sure she was having trouble with $600/mo. payment, much less the $1000. So why did you buy the bloody house? Maybe because there's been a big push for "ownership"...or maybe because you were too ignorant to read the not-so-fine print.

It's long past time we stopped weeping for people doing stupid things. Failure is the best way to learn not to make a mistake. Let them learn the hard way. I did.

The story of "Donna" may or may not be sympathetic. There is not enough information provided so we can decide if "Donna" is truly in a bad situation that she did not create, or if she created her own problems by lying about her income on her loan application, in which case, she deserves no sympathy, but scorn for being part of the liars and crooks who are responsible for the present "foreclosure crisis."

It is interesting that "Donna" failed to disclose her last name. If she had reporters could have been able to check out her story to see if she is a victim or a fraud, or actually a Hillary plant.

Hillary turning on the faucet !!! Everyday when Clintons get up, they look in the mirror and ask themselves ... " How do we fool them today ??? "

Despite eyewitnesses statements that Clinton was not crying, you Kool-aiders believe everything that the press writes as if it were gospel. Kind of the same thing you believe about everything that Obama says.

Wow! The venom that you Obama supporters spew against Senator Clinton has turned my stomach for the last time. You people are more hateful that the Republican right.
I would rather vote for McCain than support Obama and his far lefties who hate anyone running against his Holiness.
You people are ruining the Democratic party with your venom and hate.
When we have a broken convention because of you Hillary Haters, you will have reaped exactly what you deserve: four more years of Republican rule.
The Republicans don't need to do a thing the Democrats will destroy themselves.

I don't think we're heartless, but this election is not for mayor or even governor...this person will represent the US around the world!!! As we all know, these are very dangerous times all around the world and we need someone with a strong persona to deal with some very trying times. I just don't think this emotional behavior will earn her respect from some others in the world...some, who already don't treat women equally as we do.

Posted by: U of Chi mom | February 16, 2008 9:09 PM

Maybe someone like your husband, Mrs. Obama or maybe, Mrs. Obama is your boss at U. of C?

Would you say, Watson, that this was just a coincidence that the blogger is a U. of C. Mom, and Mrs. Obama is making a six figure salary at U of C, a job she got with the help of her husband.

Good try, all kidding aside.

Of course her tears are real. Of course she's empathetic. But the fact is that this not a problem a President can or should be able to solve. It's an economic problem, not a political problem.

It's a learning experience for all Americans. Easy credit and inflated property values are a bad combination.

We need smarter people, not more liberal politicians.

I am a 61 year old woman. I have always been aa hold-it-together emotionally type, but I find as I have gotten older, I am more in touch with my emotions and stories of people losing their homes, touching stories of survival and even triumph, death of friends and other life experiences do touch my core now and bring forth tears in a way I would have been ashamed of 20 years ago. I am glad Senator Clinton is in touch with her emotions and more secure with herself to show them naturally. That is emotional health. I wonder much more about what type of people most of you who equate it with weakness or always try to say it is political are...emotionally stunted or just chronically cynical?

Right on time, just before another primary.

It's hard to know what to believe- the TV pundits aren't objective. No one is, and there's so much hatred and nastiness that from the sound of it, we'd better not vote for anybody. This country has become like a bunch of rabid dogs looking to tear down anyone and anything that we have no use for- politicians, celebrities, other people's beliefs and values. It's a spectator sport- Britney is Hillary is Obama is Paris is Bush and on and on.

Let's face it people, either Obama or Hillary will make a much better President than Yosemite McCain would:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/spacepotato/2177951073/

Who are McCain's advisor's on foreign policy? NEOCON'S!!!

If elected he will stay in Iraq for 100 years, he will invade Iran, Syria, with his eye on that major threat to everyone FRANCE!!!!

Here are famous "Liberal" commontators Joe Scarborough and Pat Buchanan talking about Insane McCain:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a9Dd-yg2A4E

i'm envious. i have no tear ducts left after the bush administration. i hope for tears of joy in november. hope........buy it.

Hillary,

It's always dame if you do, and damn if you don't. So don't worry about those nuisance. Follow you heart and do whatever you think is right. And we are right behind you 100%.

Love always,

Hillary asked the local officials if they could help the woman. I'd like to know what their response was. Personally helping the woman out her own pocket would have been a more genuine act, and would have helped at least one hard working person facing losing their home. Hillary says she is about action. Well, that poor woman and her child represented a chance for Hillary to PROVE that she is not talk, but action. I am an Obama supporter, but I feel that Hillary missed an opportunity to show people that she is really in the business of solutions.

please, take the time to hear what lawrence lessig has to say.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=EdDzvmY1XPo

for those of you who don't know who he is,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lawrence_Lessig

I was there today and I am not a Clinton supporter. She did not cry. She showed slight emotion which nearly everyone did when a 10 year old said that she was going to loose her house. Those who say it was stagged, of course Hillary supporters are going to get those key questions to be asked, what candidate's suppoorters don't have some what of a bias as to what questions will be asked!? Hypocrites. Sorry, still not voting her, but when I have to see people post such bull on here it is disgusting. At least you won't get any type of a hard core republican in the executive branch in 2009.

If Hillary was a man who cried about people's problems all the time, people would question if he was unfit for the tough job he was running for. Is it really a positive if someone is beset by emotional swells like that all the time? It's surely not the first time she has heard a personal story like this. Is she going to do this every time?

@ Tony, @Jen, and @all who think Hillary's sincere:

She's trying to steal MI and FLA (remember who stole FLA last time?). She race baits. She held a fake, Potempkin victory party in FLA after the non-existent Primary there. She never congratulates Obama on his many, many wins (Bush refuses to ackowledge reality and his failures too...). She's mathmatically eliminated right now, and she vows a fight until JUNE. She's scorching the earth for her SELFISH interests.

WAKE UP!

A woman that resorts to tears will never make it as "the FIRST". Does any woman believe that a Bin Laden would be fooled by Clinton's tears?

WI, TX, PA, OH --- don't be fooled like New Hampshire was, please.

Problem is, a five-year freeze on interest rates on adjustable rate mortgages will kill the mortgage market, and do untold damage to the housing market and anyone looking to get a mortgage in the future. That's why Obama's plan calls for help to people facing foreclosure, but no irresponsible suggestions a-la-Clinton.

Take your pick. Either Clinton is incredibly naive, or else she's dishonest. Both maybe?

This is the same Hillary Clinton who supported a real estate developer's right to drive people in poor neighborhoods out of their homes so a shopping mall could be built where they were living, right?

Yeah. She really cares...

Yo, Bushman, King of Irony:

Maybe you can't fix stupid, but you could learn how to spell. LOL!!!

Please...no more TEARS. This is at least her 3rd time. Last being when she listened to a disabled vet in another state. Down came the rain.

If she gets this emotional...pretell what will she do when meeting with foreign countries and the like...OR WHEN THINGS DON'T QUITE SEEM TO GO HER WAY??????????

Enough already. Many have said the Clintons would do anything to get this nomination and presidency. How true!!!!

Eleanor Roosevelt taught us that sometimes silence is the greatest sin

by Mrs. Lyndon Baines (Ladybird) Johnson
Former First Lady, United States Of America
Women can move beyond the struggle for equal status and for material goods to the challenges and opportunities of citizenship. Quality of goals and the achievement of goals which will mean a better life for all. For me, it was the beginning of seeing how politics can bring tangible results. I always hope that the very best of our people will go into politics, and I am sure that some of our best are women. So, I say: "Don't hold back. Don't be shy. Step forward in every way you can to plan boldly, to speak clearly, to offer the leadership which the world needs. Let us today earnestly resolve to build the true foundation for Eleanor Roosevelt's memory--to pluck out prejudice from our lives, to remove fear and hate where it exists, and to create a world unafraid to work out its destiny in peace. Eleanor Roosevelt has already made her own splendid and incomparable contribution to that foundation. Let us go and do likewise, within the measure of our faith and the limits of our ability. Let Eleanor Roosevelt teach Us all how to turn the arts of compassion into the victories of democracy.Eleanor Roosevelt taught us that sometimes silence is the greatest sin.
"I think very highly of Hillary. I admire her. I think she's one of the most disciplined strong dedicated people I know. She's one of the toughest. She's got an extraordinary intelligence, and outstanding public service record, she's somebody who's in this stuff for the right reasons. She's passionate about moving the country forward especially on issues like economy, health care and children.– “Barack Obama “

hillary crying is the eqivalent of ex-pres Bill biting his lower lip.Only in front of the cameras,all for show. She's just another version of him when it comes to their phony, feeling and caring.

Yeah, That's who I want to run the country. A Blabbering woman who turns on the tears at just the right "staged" moment to try and sway the lemmings to vote for her. Do any of you really think that was genuine? Hilary is the most coniving two faced politician I have seen since slick Willy! She has a good teacher and she's the same scum that he is. She will stop at nothing to get to the Whitehouse and God help us if she does. Bill was a flim flam man and Hilary will be too. Don't buy it America!

You are a liar. Hillary is dead but Bush didn't kill her. Voters sick and tired of the Clinton crap did and will finally bury her in WI and PA

i'm getting sick of the weeping. I'm not sure I wantt a teary eyed leader. Emotions are great, but keep them for private moments. We need a leader who exudes strength and compassion without seeming sentimental and maudlin. Think of so many amazing women leaders, Indira Gandhi, Bennazir Bhutto, Margaret Thatcher. They exuded power and authority and wouldn't be caught dead weeping in public, although I'm sure they wept a lot in private (as anyone with feelings and compassion would). even Condoleeza Rice wouldn't weep in public, I'm sure of it (nor have I ever seen her). I am undecided as of yet but weeping won't earn Clinton extra points in my book.

Ok fine, let's reality check ourselves, is it possible her tears are genuine? About as genuine as her willingness to exploit the moment the way she did in NH. That was genuine...exploiting the moment...Let's say she's overcome with feeling and compare it to her anger. Edwards always seemed to be genuinely angry about the issues; Hillary's anger always seems to stem from personal frustration. Whose to say those tears aren't for the dissolution of a campaign she thought she had in the bag?????

I think at the next debate, the question should be, Senator Obama what is you position on crying for votes?
Would wetting yourself be more effective?

Don't any of you get it? Adults made the decision to take a mortgage with adjustable rates because the interest rate was lower than a fixed interest rate mortgage.

I paid more by taking a fixed rate mortgage because I realized that if interest rates raised, over time I could get into deep doo-doo.

Now I get to pay for the people who made the wrong decision because the Nanny state wants to step in and save everyone for their poor decisions.

where the heck did responsibility go?
