Well she's smarter than Obama. Not saying much, but there you go.

2300 thats more than Barry did in two stops. I bet Super delegates are dying.

“but refused to criticize the newer woman on the presidential campaign scene, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin.”

Because unlike Obama, she's got her future to think about.

When an audience member shouted out during her speech, "Tell us about Palin," she responded, "I don't think that's what this election is about,"

Ruh-roh. Somebody is figuring it out.

Ruh-roh. Somebody is figuring it out.

And she won’t criticize Palin.
She doesn’t want people to start throwing darts at her and Bill, and she doesn’t want to driver moderates to Palin (which they will do).

As far as I am concerned, Palin is 100% of what this election is all about.

She is playing it exactly right. If she criticizes Palin and Palin’s popularity stays as high as it is until 2012 than she has no chance of beating her. However if she stays nice and neutral and takes the high ground she does herself a favor.

It looks like Hillary is just going through the motions of demonstrating party loyalty. In public, she’ll do the bare minimum to support him. In private, she’ll try and undermine him at every turn.

[Yossarian]

Clinton is a savvy professional politician, and seems to somewhat learn from her mistakes. That makes her all the more dangerous.

Thank God Barry Soetero knocked her out.

Bauer said McCain's choice of Sarah Palin only solidified her decision to support Obama. "Anyone who tells me that I shouldn't get an abortion if I choose to, that's it," she said.

Abortion, abortion, abortion. Is killing babies all these "women" care about?

[TruthWillWin]

Why would she criticize Palin? She is starting her 2012 campaign.

[ovrtaxt]

And Operation Chaos.

[library user]

Exactly. The best thing Hillary can wish for now is to look forward to running against McCain/Palin in 2012.

[Loyalist]

As far as I am concerned, Palin is 100% of what this election is all about.

Given his recent outbursts, I'd say Barack Obama agrees with you.

[Southack]

"Clinton also said she thinks Florida Democrats are no longer angry over the national party's sanctions and the candidates' boycott of the state over its too-early primary. "All of that is in the past," she said. "This election is about the future."

She propagandizes so effortlessly...the primaries of 3 months ago are "in the past" and don't matter, but whatever Bush did 8 years ago is reason to support Dems.

Oy vey!

[ovrtaxt]

Maybe she’ll play her cards right and score a spot as Palin’s 2012 VP?

[ladyjane]

Any pictures of Hillary in the past few days?

She’s been out of sight since she withdrew from the campaign. She was probably having some plastic surgery. It’s been healing and she’s ready to get back to D.C.

Palin's Glasses Bring Sexy Back

When Sarah Palin gave her speech at the Republican National Convention, all eyes were not only on her, but her glasses as well.

While most critics called Palin's speech at the RNC a home run, others are saying her glasses stole the show.

"She won the hearts of America with certainly those glasses she had on," Editor in Chief of 20/20, a magazine about glasses, James Spina said. "She certainly made her stance as someone who wears eyewear because it's iconic to her look."

People Who Make Glasses Look Good

The now sought-after Palin frames will cost you around $375, excluding the lenses.

"As you may have noticed they were not invisible on her. She's in the rimless style that has a lot of attention going to the temples, they're jewel-like cut in the lenses, and a pretty dramatic shape," Spina said.

And Palin's not the only one sporting sexy glasses says Spina, "More and more people are treating their glasses like an accessory."

Spina says not only are glasses trendy, but sexy too, "It is sexy, it's a way to strongly identify your own personality. And guys look great in them and women look beautiful in them."
