Former vice presidential candidate Geraldine Ferraro, who is stepping down from Hillary Clinton’s finance team after telling a California newspaper that Barack Obama has been aided politically by his race, said Wednesday evening that the remarks were nothing more than a “statement of fact.” Ferraro told FOX News she’s leaving her unpaid post on the Clinton finance committee because she doesn’t want the flap to become a campaign distraction, but blamed the fallout on Obama’s operatives. “Somebody must have seen this (article) and said, ‘Wow, this is really something — we go after Ferraro, we go after Clinton,” Ferraro said...

HARRISBURG, Pa. -- Hillary Rodham Clinton said Tuesday she disagrees with Geraldine Ferraro, one of her fundraisers and the 1984 Democratic vice presidential candidate, for saying that Barack Obama "would not be in this position" if he were white instead of black. In a brief interview with The Associated Press, Clinton said she regretted Ferraro's remarks. The Obama campaign has called on the New York senator to denounce the comments and remove Ferraro from her unpaid position with the campaign. Last week, Ferraro told the Daily Breeze of Torrance, Calif.: "If Obama was a white man, he would not be...

The question that has dogged Hillary Clinton for years - long before she even announced her intention to run for the White House - is what role would be played by her husband, that mercurial, impulsive and unpredictable former president, if she won? After all, he does have something of a history. Now we know the answer. Mrs Clinton has revealed that if she wins the battle to be president, her husband will be dispatched as far away from the White House as possible; his role will be roaming ambassador with a remit to repair America's tattered image around the...

The thing I like most about the "Hillary 1984" political ad on YouTube isn't the face, shrouded in a ghastly pixel haze, but the voice. Her voice recedes into a weird, unreal echo. Truth to tell, you could insert any of the faces imploring us now to make them president, and achieve the same effect. (If you're still playing catch-up, go into YouTube.com, search "Hillary" and watch in wonder.)It took some days after it posted on YouTube for the non-Web media to confer legitimacy on the one-minute, 13-second clip, calling it a potential "conflict" between the Hillary and Obama camps....

Hillary Clinton's polling numbers are tumbling, but the real shocker is how poorly she is faring with the female electorate. According to the recent Rasmussen poll, 43% of women say they will not vote for Hillary. And the latest poll by John Zogby reported an almost identical number ? 42% of women would not vote for Mrs. Clinton under any circumstances. Hillary's gender problem is underscored by the bootleg Apple Computer 1984 ad.

South Park, the cartoon series that has pushed the bounds of taste for a decade, has perhaps produced its most spectacularly offensive episode yet. Certainly Her Majesty is unlikely to be amused by a programme that shows her blowing her brains out. The scene begins with a clearly alarmed Queen receiving a call on her mobile telling her that an evil British plot to conquer America has gone awry. Her Majesty is unlikely to be amused by South Park showing her blowing her brains out She then reaches for a handgun, places it in her mouth and shoots herself. She...
