Hillary Crossed The Line When She Said She And McCain Have The Experience To Be President.
This was a disgraceful remark which hasn't received the attention it deserved. By making it, she was effectively endorsing McCain over Obama.

Yes she did...she doesn't even show Obama respect and hes in her own party she is one of those people who will do whatever it takes to win without thinking about the consequences and if that's the case then who needs her a president?

 It's called a contest, it's called a debate. It's like a game. When you play a game, what's the oblect of the game?.. To win. You don't play a game if you know your going to lose. Besides she has given a lot of compliments to Obama. More than Obama has given her.

By tradition, candidates for the nomination of one party show a minimum of respect for other candidates within the same party. When one candidate eventually wins the nomination, all of the other candidates endorse him or her. It's taken for granted that all candidates place the interests of their party above their own petty personal ambitions to be president, and that they would prefer any candidate of their own party to win ahead of any candidate of the other party.

In remarking that she thought both she and John McCain had the experience to be president, however, Hillary crossed the line. Implicitly, she's saying that McCain would be a better choice than Obama for the oval office. She is endorsing the candidate of the other party, acting like a petulant child who huffily says "If I can't win, I want to spoil it for everyone." If Obama eventually wins the nomination, no doubt Hillary's words will be replayed in the republican campaign commercials. Hillary's conduct is absolutely outrageous and should be condemned by everyone in the democratic party. She is placing her own personal ambitions ahead of any other consideration.

Hillery Clinton crossed the line, when she was in the white house the last time. The Americans don't want her back.

Fact is, they both have way more experience than Obama. And McCain has way more experience than either of them.

I would much prefer to hear debates on things that are pertinent - like experience as opposed to who's a Muslim or a Christian.

Of course Hillary Clinton did not cross the line when she implied that John McCain has more experience in politics and in foreign affairs than Barack Obama; the fact is, he does, and so does she. Anyone with a basic grasp of mathematics can count the number of years that Clinton and McCain spent in active politics and see what an incredible neophyte Obama truly is. Other than that, it is becoming more obvious by the day that Obama and his preachy rhetoric would be better suited for an inspirational afternoon talk show than for presidential politics.

Barack Obama is looking less and less attractive by the day, as Democrats and independent voters realize that he is quite simply not the revolutionary, dynamic candidate they thought he would be. Obama is turning into an old-school, big government, anti-free trade, pro-union railing left-wing democrat. His irresponsible populism (which includes a strong disdain for NAFTA) shows that not only does he have no experience in foreign policy, his grasp of economics is equally poor. Although Clinton does occasionally turn to populism as well, at least with her we know for certain that she is not being genuine about it and is just trying to win the nomination.
