All the interviewers let her off the hook, IMO. No follow-up questions and whatever double-speak she offered went unchallenged. It was a total love-fest.

When she said the USA should surrender in Iraq, no one asked about the potential consequences for Iraq itself, nor did they ask her to justify her previous statements, nor did they ask what that withdrawal would mean to USA credibility in the future.

When she said that we outsourced Iran policy, no one asked her if it’s bad to work with out allies.

When she said we need to socialize the medical system, no one asked about the huge unfunded liability of Medicaid and how we would pay for all this medical care without huge increases in taxation.

When they asked about Hsu and she said that everyone has some problems with fundraisers, no one asked if everyone has a $milllion problem, nor did they compare this situation directly with Abramof, nor did they ask about the growing Democratic party problem in this regard.

….in case you didn’t get it, I don’t support Hillary. She will be very bad for the country.

Both Russert and George S. let her go on with her canned campaign speech. Russert called her on one or two items but let her talk her way out of it.

Thanks for stoppin’, thanks for takin’ the time to comment.

I only saw her on FNS and Kristol pointed out what you did vis a vis the Moveon ad. He said that it is a patently ridiculous to compare a political attack to an attack on a General in the middle of a war.

As far as her Health care plan, she was of course being totally disingenuous with regard to all the extra bureaucracy and Newt pointed that out right after she was done.

My fear is that the country is actually going to buy her plan. Rasmussen’s latest survey says that Americans want Universal care.

It will take conservatives and libertarians debating tooth and nail to show her plan for the socialist government monstrocity that it is. You are right in that these rounds of interviews certainly did not help.
