If Barack Obama can venture on to the FOX News set -- breaking a two-year-long "Obama Watch'' with his appearance on FOX News Sunday with Chris Wallace -- Hillary Clinton cannot be far behind.
Clinton will sit with FOX News Channel's Bill O'Reilly for an interview in South Bend, Ind., that will start airing on The O'Reilly Factor at 8 pm EDT Wednesday and conclude on Thursday same time. "This will be Sen. Clinton's first-ever appearance on The O'Reilly Factor,'' the network says with some pride.
"Sen. Clinton is expected to address questions about her ongoing campaign for the Democratic nomination, her competitor, Sen. Obama, as well as questions about her position on domestic and foreign policy,'' the network says -- well, at least she knows what the questions are.
The O'Reilly Factor bills itself as "the highest-rated program in cable news for more than seven years. Going beyond just the headlines, the Factor uncovers news items from the established wisdom and goes against the grain of the more traditional interview style programs.''

Where really is the news in this?
Hillary is a Republican in a Democrat pantsuit, so she will slide right in and feel at home on Fox News.
UGH. She really is starting to make me feel ill.

Desperate times call for desparate measures.

I hope Senator Clinton will tell him how wrong he has it, concerning America. SUPPORT OUR TROOPS, BRING THEM HOME, ALIVE. NOW.

There's a little bit of Journalistic Magic anyone with a brain stem should try to avoid.

Hey, B.O'Reilly is voting for her, isn't he? Something about McBush being too liberal.
I know he dropped support for Bush after the WMD in Iraq turned out to be a lie.

This isn't very surprising, Billary has always been a Neonut Republican dressed up as a Democrat.

In these times candidates will do anything for a vote. Wait and see...I bet McBush will accept endorsements from the agents of intolerance.

John E, are you kidding? Hillary a Republican? Reason #236 why I can't stand Obama - he makes flaming liberal Hillary look like a moderate.

Coming from someone from the rightwing lunitic fringe like you, Obama should take that as a compliment.

Feeding time at Obama HQ for bloggers?
Junior needs to debate mama.
The love fest from the media today was sickening.
Wake up and smell the misogyny.
He's not nearly as fit as she is.

Hmmmmmmmm...........
Why do I get this feeling that this cut and paste poster is blogging from Billary HQ for bloging nutjobs, who are so far removed from reality that they don't know that Billary has already lost?

Too bad the FCC will prevent the broadcast of Hillary blowing him.

Jack: Give Americans credit for having SOME SENSE, ok??? It's up to us to examine the candidates (not their FORMER PASTOR!!!) AND GO FROM THERE. We're not exactly stupid, and this year more than any other I think we're REALLY doing whatever it takes to settle on who we really feel is THE RIGHT ONE.

Desperate. She might as well meet with Bin Laden!!!

Don't know if O' Reilly will try to play hardball. If he does, Clinton will benefit by showing how tough she can be in fast fire situations. Compare her demeanor and confidence under duress vs. Obama.
Toughness alone does not qualify Clinton for POTUS, but it rates higher than superb oratory skills.

To: Mary in Fort Madison; How can you say "not stupid" ? ! Carter and Clinton got elected by SOMEONE !!!

Ahhh, more hysteria from the Left wing Loonies. Up until Obama started winning some primaries, John E was in the Hillary camp. Now he calls her a NeoNut Republican. Course, John E also said he was heading to Iraq in February 2007.
Hillary is a liberal Democrat and has always been a liberal Democrat. There is very little difference between her voting record and Obama's.
But keep it up, Loons. You folks continue to get even more unhinged, as hard as it is to believe you folks can get any more inhinged. Anyway, keep getting inhinged. The more the normal folks in this country see just how gone you folks on the Left are, the better the chances for the Republicans. The hysterical Left is gonna lose big time in November.

Hillary and Bill O', what a team they would be.
One can tell the lies and the other will swear to it.

The name calling attacks from The pro Obama bloggers seem to fit a pattern all but invited by Michelle Obama's early "Phyllis Schafly-esque" communiques.

The 'fat ankle' crowd doesn't need to pay bloggers, like the Obama camp DOES.
OBAMA FLIPPED HILLARY OFF.
HE REFUSED TO DEBATE HER.
HE'S GETTING SYMPATHY FOR HAVING A MINISTER/FATHER WHO 'SEEMED TO TRY TO RUIN HIS SHOT'--AND THIS DISTRACTS FROM THE FACT THAT:
He is trying to get away with saying 4 debates with Hillary = 21 debates overall.
He's scared.
And he's trying to say she's irrelevant.
INDIANA KNOWS BETTER! VOTE HILLARY!

Why is it that if you don't support Clinton, you're automatically a misogynist? Obama supporters don't refer to the Clinton supporters as racists when they speak out against Obama!!

Hillary Clinton defers to the voter on the topic of Reverend Wright, because when Hillary & Bill Clinton founded their own college, they sifted through 40, 000 applicants, all to the left of the Rev. Wright. The faculty sets the tone at any university, and the Clintons picks from the radical fringe insured that theirs would be a fitting tribute to progressive anti-Americanism. You say you’ve never heard of the University of Bill Clinton? Prepare to be amazed, your formal education is about to begin: http://theseedsof9-11.com
