“I wasn’t at my best the other night”, Says Hillary Clinton

On today's "The Situation Room," Sen. Hillary Clinton opened up about her widely-discussed performance during last week's MSNBC debate. (You can watch the video here on Breitbart.tv)

"I wasn't at my best the other night," Clinton told CNN's Candy Crowley. "We have had a bunch of debates, and you know, I wouldn't rank that up in my very top list." Following the debate, Clinton's opponents for the 2008 Democratic nomination (as well as Hillary detractors generally) criticized the New York senator for being dishonest and evasive, and for flip-flopping on several issues.

Hillary’s Nomination Chances Just Dropped From 80 to 50 Percent, Says Gingrich

Newt Gingrich called in to Sean Hannity's radio program to discuss Hillary Clinton's debate performance. Highlights:

“Her performance in that debate was so bad, on issues that matter so much, she may not be able to recover from it… This issue of Spitzer trying to give out d l to people at a time when your driver’s licenseallows you to vote – for her to trap herself into saying that creates a big wound…

The fact that she said she’s basically sympathetic with Rangel’s trillion dollar tax increase – that’s going to arouse some deep opposition. The huge Democratic tax increase allowed us to win in 1994… Then, I saw in a ticker on Fox News, when Sen. Edwards said nominating her would be ‘a victory for a corruption machine’… it brings back a lot of memories of the Chinese funding scandals of 1996… It takes her winning the nomination from an 80 percent likelihood to a 50 percent. It’s even money. If she doesn’t turn this around quick, I may have to call back in and take it even lower.”

Newt wants senators to try to get an amendment on a bill banning states from offering driver’s licenses to those who are in the country illegally.

What Ford’s Thoughts on One Clinton’s Past Say About Another Clinton’s Future

 

Gerald Ford will not be a panelist at tonight's Democratic presidential debate so it's a fair bet that no one will ask whether Bill Clinton is a sex addict and whether it really matters as his wife runs to win back the White House. But it's also a fair bet that voters so far know more about Bill Clinton's sex life than Hillary Rodham Clinton's plan for Social Security — especially since she isn't telling what her plan is.

So here again is the conundrum with this most unusual of presidential candidates. She is the current odds-on favorite to be the Democratic nominee, if not the next president of the United States, both because of and in spite of her unfaithful husband. And as demonstrated once again by a new book detailing Ford's from-the-grave assessment, Bill Clinton's history of extracurricular activity may never be completely removed from the national dialogue, no matter how much everyone may want it to be.

Ford gave his thoughts about Clinton over the years to Tom DeFrank, a veteran Washington reporter who covered the Michigan Republican since before he became president and agreed to keep a series of post-White House interviews secret until after Ford's death. In "Write It When I'm Gone: Remarkable Off-the-Record Conversations with Gerald R. Ford," the 38th president proved a tough judge of the 42nd president's behavior. "He's sick," Ford told DeFrank in 1999, the year the Senate acquitted Clinton of perjury and obstruction of justice in an impeachment trial stemming from his affair with Monica Lewinsky. "He's got an addiction. He needs treatment." Ford said Clinton had "damaged his presidency beyond repair."

Rudy loves Hillary-haters

Here are the three things you need to know about the Republican presidential race.

• GOP voters, especially social conservatives, are not impressed with their candidates.

• They despise Democratic Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton of New York.

• The hate-Hillary factor trumps all.

These sentiments, culled during several days of interviews with GOP voters and strategists in Georgia, explain why the Republican Party seems uncomfortably pragmatic with a pro-choice, moderate from New York leading the presidential race.

"I think Rudy Giuliani is one of them darn moderates," hissed GOP voter Jesse Fordham, "but he has the best chance of beating Hillary Clinton."

‘I opposed this war… Sen. Clinton did not’, Says Barack Obama

by Mark Silva

"I opposed this war from the start and Sen. Clinton did not,'' Sen. Barack Obama of Illinois says in an interview aired this evening on National Public Radio, distilling the difference that he hopes to draw between himself and his party's frontrunner into 12 plain words.

Obama, who trails Clinton by 20 percentage points in national polls, has ratcheted up his campaign against the senator from New York and former first lady. Andrea Seabrook, reporting for NPR's All Things Considered, asked what he considers to be the weaknesses of the party's front-runner.

"Well, I think that I am stronger for the kinds of challenges that we’re going to face in the next several years,'' Obama told Seabrook. "Otherwise I wouldn’t be running for president.

"I think that the two key challenges that we face is to bring this country together and make sure that we can actually overcome the special interest-driven politics and the partisanship in Washington to get things done on healthcare and on energy,'' Obama said, in the interview taped yesterday on the campaign trail in Iowa and broadcast this evening. "And I think that I’m in a better position to bring the country together than Sen. Clinton is.
