These Fox News titles are silly.

Is this Obamas new kitchen sink politics. Kind of reminds me of what he did early. But this time, I have a hunch Clinton will not take it.

We already have several diaries and a front page on this exact same issue. Here is a repost of my comment to Setrack's diary:

What she is trying to do is to get under Obama's skin, and get him to respond something along the lines of: "Oh yeah, I have to crossed the Commander In Chief Threshold." And see, he took the bait.

By binding herself to McCain a little at this stage, she is attempting to diminish Obama, since he's not part of the club. Let's see how he responds. Acting petulant is not going to work.

John McCain is the nominee. He is generally perceived as stong on national security, even though I personally think he is really scary. Tying her to the other nominee using national security is tantamount to ceding the issue. He should find a better way to deflect this one, but again he won't because he let her get under his skin. All of which gets back to the point of the attack. People with the CIC Theshold credential don't let their opponents get under their skin.

Which, come to think of it, is why it is ridiculous to think of John McCain as qualifying for anything more than dogcatcher, but again thats just rhetorical at this point. These won't be the issues in the general. There is just so much really substantive that seperates either Obama or Clinton from McCain. They won't be dancing around these kinds of nuanced attacks.

Even Bill Clinton remarked earlier in the campaign about their mutual respect and even liking for each other.  And I can't blame her if she likes McCain more than Obama.  I feel the same way.

She's worked to shore up her national security credentials.  That is a good bit of what she devoted her time to in the Senate.  She can't match McCain but she can come much closer than Obama can.  Obama doesn't seem like he cared much for doing Senate business and learning about a substantive area.  To him it was just a stepping stone to a promotion.

Supreme Court Justices.

3 or 4 will most likely be appointed in the next prez term.

Hillary is NOT a neo-con, not even close!

They are both more corporate friendly then I would like.

She did NOT say that she and mccain had the same experiences. She did NOT promote mccains experiences as a good thing. She is simply stating the facts and how they will be used.

Pretend it is a Clinton and mccain race. Who's experience would you rather have? It is not even a close call, it would be Hillary!

Right now BOTH campaigns are playing a little politics with their statements and words. This does not mean lies, just politics.

To ALL of you that say you will not vote, vote mcain or some other nonsense ... you are fools! I know that most of you (except the freeping repubs) want positive changes, liberal changes, progressive changes for this country and We The People.

So... think of my first words at the top. Supreme Court Justices! Do you know what this means?

Progressive Blue

Didn't Obama say that he thought Reagan was an inspirational leader or something like that? Kinda the same thing. The Clinton folks were then criticised for criticising as I recall. People this is campaign rhetoric,acting all upset is not a good response.

Not sure I agree 100%, though.  I guess I like McCain's centrism a little better, but I trusted Reagan's temperment a little more.  But, then again, I liked Reagan. Still do.

Hillary as Joe Lieberman??? is this the new tac???

Everything Hillary said is 100% true, McCain will label Obama a terrorist loving coward who wants to cut and run and Obama won't know what to do except say "i opposed this war from the start"

That literally is Obama's only answer to every national security question. McCain will eat him alive. We need someone who knows their stuff, I for one am tired of having a President who picks up the phone and calls their VP asking what they should do

You guys should check Out Olbermann...talk about the smackdown; goodby union vote in PA.  NAFTAGATE and McClinton...good times.

what if at a press conference obama said "the citizens of this country deserve an honest and open presidency, a president and a family that can serve as a good example for our children and speak with moral clarity. senator mccain has clearly crossed this threshold. id like to think michelle and I have as well. you'll have to ask senator clinton if she feels as though she can say the same."

"Commander in Chief threshold"

What the HELL does that even MEAN?  Talk about empty words...

I can now see Hillary's slash and burn tactics very clearly.  You see, she now sees this primary as a "lose-win" situation.

If she loses, she's going to try her damnedest to see to it that McCain beats Obama in the GE.  That way, she can try again in 2012.

Selfish and vile.
