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."

..just don't cackle
From later in the article:
Shortly thereafter, the Presidential hopeful blamed a bizarre lightning bolt that struck the stage she was standing on as "another attack by the Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy which has been trying to destroy me and my husband for the last sixteen years."
The most innocent of what? Being in a committed, heterosexual relationship?
No worries on that score, I’m a jolly fellow in the real world too.....
Doesn’t make her innocent. Just unindictable.
“Most innocent”. Having to parse every Clintonian word, phrase, sentence, etc, I’d suggest that she’s merely re-defining criminal activities.
The wife of the ‘first black President’ just lost to a guy thats actually black.....(chuckle)
And she can’t fix it either.
Deanna Favre starting QB for the Packers this Sunday........
In a news conference Deanna Favre announced she will be the starting QB for the Packers this coming Sunday.
She claimed she is qualified to be starting QB because she has spent the past 16 years married to Brett while he played QB for the Packers. Because of this she understands how to pick up a corner blitz and knows the terminology of the Packers offense. A poll of Packers fans shows that 50% of those polled supported the move.
Does this sounds idiotic and unbelievable to you?
Yet Hillary Clinton makes the same claims as to why she is qualified to be President and 50% of democrats polled agreed.
Hmmm, she could have an affair with Samuel Jackson....naw, he’s got to much class....
My take is that without the black vote we never would have been subjected to the curse that is clintonism. But having lived by the sword they are now at risk of dying from it. And one can’t help but laugh at the irony of it all.
...or like military spouses who get half of the military member’s retirement because they somehow “earned” it by being married to the member while the member served his or her country. Ducking now...

Was my first thought as well. As always, she wants it both ways.
Of course she’s innocent-of experience in governing!
In a heterosexual sense, I have no doubt she is one of the most innocent people on Earth. In any other sense, she’s full of s**t.
Most innocent?...She is not getting BJ’s from interns?
Where is the picture of Hillary’s experienced companion?
Stay out da cornfields! Pay no attention to the Hsus on that scarecrow!!!
