Sen. Hillary Clinton went on the counterattack today, one day after a stinging defeat in the Iowa caucuses to Illinois Sen. Barack Obama.
She said New Hampshire voters need to take a hard look at Obama, suggesting that they shouldn't just buy into his message of "hope" without analyzing his policies.
Clinton said she wasn't suggesting anything in particular about Obama, but simply "drawing contrasts."
"I'm running on my record. I'm running on my plans," Clinton told reporters. "I think everybody needs to be vetted and tested. That's the way elections are supposed to operate. The last thing the Democrats need is to just move quickly through this process."
Clinton said voters need to ask Obama more questions about his health-care plan to find out "where he stands."
... Asked what she meant ...that all of the vetting and investigations of her record had found her "most innocent," Clinton simply said: "I think I come into this race tested and proven and ready to take on the Republicans no matter what they send my way."

How funny. One crook trying to outdo the other.
Yes, but Obama is clean and articulate.
“Is she experienced? Or innocent?”
Experienced at claiming innocence.
Translation: Buyer beware
She certainly is full of herself
Agreed.
As much as I don’t like a certain “haircut populist” and a certain fluff candidate with an embarrasingly bad name for a president, I just love getting to revel in Hillary getting what’s coming to her. Perhaps it’s too soon to celebrate, but I’m tickled pink by her campaign’s desperate attempts to spin her loss in Iowa.
“I’m running on my record. I’m running on my plans”
Glad you brought that up Hillary. Exactly how many new jobs did you promise New Yorkers and FAILED to deliver?
Clinton ran on "Hope" and "Change" with no policies in 1992 and that was OK then....
Case closed. I nominate "Like A Virgin" to be Hillary's campaign song. Can't wait to see the Material Girl on tour with the rest of the group; Hillary's mother, Chelsea, Huma.
And why doesn't Hillary ask Barack Obama's mother to go on tour with her? Everybody seems to have forgotten that she is a white woman from Kansas.
Guilty since birth...
Yes I sure do!
May she was afraid of the children of the corn...
I think these are deadly words from the black widow spider. I think she's hinting that Obama has something really terrible in HIS record while hers is clean.
I think this is also a shot across Obama's bow. Keep him, his staff, his volunteers and his donors on edge worrying what she's got on him and when she's going to drop it to the media.
Hillary is NOT Elsie Dinsmore. She doesn't take a defeat like last night's gracefully.
Leni
Words are just pieces of sweet, pretty candy handed out to the masses.
The meanings of the words have no basis in actuality; but the words are so sweet and so very pretty.
Well, certainly they're poison; but they are so very sweet and so very, very pretty.
Opiate of the masses.
Clintonian words mean NOTHING.
Of course the Clinton Chinese Mafia is innocent....
Pray for W and Our Troops
Of course, it's a snap for Obama, being black. : )
Clintons/ChineseRedArmyMoney/Loral/Riady/Lippo/peterpaul/hsu/3rd
“Clintons/ChineseRedArmyMoney/Loral/Riady/Lippo/peterpaul/hsu/3rd”
Yup. That’s her record all right.
'THIS IS A NEW DAY. THIS IS A NEW STATE'
I kid you not. Except I believe it's been translated from the original version: "DIESES IST EIN NEUER TAG. DIESES IST EIN NEUER ZUSTAND!
Until someone has the guts to call her on it, the village idiot will continue to run. Perhaps Thompson should give her the shot in the groin before he drops out.
