CNN is the Clintons’ water carrier.

NH is such a land of the Independent Voter that this CNN plant may end up costing Hilde big time in the primary.

I don’t understand what the problem is with all of this. During the democrat debate, questions were asked by left-wing supporters posing as independents. The republicans got the identical treatment—questions were asked by left-wing supporters posing as independents. What could be fairer?

So what happens if a Republican attends a Hillary event in NH and asks negative questions of her? What I have in mind are:

1) Will your administration be as corrupt as that of your husband?

2) If you can’t control your husband’s philandering, how can you control the country?

3) Finally, what are your qualifications for president and what have you done in government thus far in your life, aside from the health care fiasco?

These are, of course, questions raised by Republicans all the time.

I’m wondering if I would be drawn and quartered after being dragged from the event by security.

STOP WATCHING CNN AND STOP BUYING FROM ANY COMPANY THAT ADVERTISES WITH THEM. MAKE THEM PAY DEARLY FOR THEIR LACK OF INTEGRITY.

Calling McCain-Feingold, calling McCain-Feingold. I assume you two will have the gumption to require CNN to shut down for the 3 month period prior to the next election since it is nothing more than a Clinton mouthpiece.

On one hand the Clinton News Network never has played fair and balanced. On the other hand, anyone running for POTUS should be able to field any question posed.

Oh, you silly thing. You’d never be called upon to ask anything because you aren’t on the list.

They did a fine job of vetting Republican Plants. None of them made it through.

“STOP WATCHING CNN AND STOP BUYING FROM ANY COMPANY THAT ADVERTISES WITH THEM.”

Can you link to a list of advertisers?
I never watch CNN so how would I know?
I see it only when passing through an airport, but I can’t
stand to watch it.

I never understood why decent people, including freepers, always seem to watch these stupid cable outlets like CNN, PMSNBC, or even the news on the alphabet slimeworks.

Obviously many are watching as it is always reported on here.

CNN did a terrible job vetting its questioners

Who is to say that they didn't do exactly what they wanted to do?

Exactly!

These are the questions that the CNN reporters would have loved to ask, but had to use these phony 'average people' under the cloak of objectivity, to get them in.

The type of questions were asked to divide the GOP over marginal issues (Confederate Flag, Bible) and to make them appear as a Party controlled by right wing 'extremists', while Hillary is a 'moderate' by comparison.

I agree. There was a difference though.

The Demo Candidates responses to those questions were mostly weak, and middle of the fence, were only lightly applauded (by paid applauders), and hard to even understand.

The Republican candidates responses were mostly decisive, earnest, honest, and received well by all.

“This is bad journalism”

Nonsense.

They aren’t journalists, they are advacates.
