Isn't it fun to watch the master (oops! should I have said "mistress"? don't want to be sexist here) manipulator at work?

I'm begging you to cover this in Newsweek. Let's see what the American people think about this memo. It really is time to start covering this kind of Clinton spin that creates the story and then disseminates it for the press to cover as fact. Please start covering this type of "man-handling" of the press and the electorate by our first woman candidate. Surely, if we can't get real coverage on the opposing candidates at least you could give some real perspective not already scripted for you by Mark Penn Bill and Hillary.

Is there news here? You mean Hillary believes in herself and campaign enough to get prepared for events in the future? WOW!

Hence the difference between a "George Bush" right-winger like Rudy and a real leader like Hillary. One plans ahead and calculates all sides (trust me, her campaign is ready if the vote does not happen in Iowa as planned), the other shoots their big mouth off and says nothing.

I am one moderate from Georgia that is proud to vote for Hillary Clinton.

The best one yet was when Mitt Romney declared his 5 sons were "serving their country" by helping him with his campaign. You would have thought thr Republican Party would have already had enough "chicken" hawks. They need more people like Republican Congressman Duncan Hunter, whose son has done two tours in Iraq.

Yawn. Newsweek's interest in Hillary's soon-to-be post-debate commentaries, even if they are canned, is, well, a tad absurd. Wait! Did somebody say that already? This is just insider information. What's the big deal? That the campaign is trying to tell people what to say in the future? Nothing new there. Try something more substantive.
