when speaking to a group of women today. So should she apologize for criticizing Obama when he said he'd take nukes off the table re: Iran? Sorry, no link yet.

Hard to keep track with the Triangulatrix.

5. I think she's flipped AND flopped already...
she first had Obama's position, then disagreed with it when HE stated it, now she agrees with it again...

8. Will Tucker issue an "I'm sorry" when someone points ouy he can't document this?
try google and yahoo and going to the various sites - conclusion is that

Tucker is a liar.

13. That means Tucker had a source and calling him a liar on this is not fair - but the statement is 2nd
hand summary reported to a blogger.

12. It is a "transcript" of a handshaking after the speech question heard not by the person posting -but
was only a question "got to Hillary" on her way out (note it was not reported as asked by "so and so") that had a summary of Hillary's answer reported back to the person doing the blogging.

I am sure no one is trying to lie in this group - they have a good rep - but do you think there is any possibility of error?

As to "provided a transcript" - that is tonights LOL - as if there is a tape that was transcribed! :-)

14. I'm glad Hill finally recognizes Obama was right from the start.
It's never too late to reconsider.

17. OK, wrong term. But are you saying you don't believe this happened?
I guess you don't like this if it's true?

18. If there is a reporter that caught the conversation and says the Hillary indicated she heard the
Edited on Thu Oct-18-07 11:36 PM by papau
question and answered as reported to the blogger, it would be a major mistake - it would shake her image of never making a mistake

It is not something she would not recover from - but it would be a major issue in both the general and the primary.

The problem is verification - it now has a known truthteller - the NHpeaceaction - reporting what they have been told - and that is not very solid for making an issue of something and spending ad dollars.

If someone in the hall will attach their name to this, saying they yelled the question, know that she understood what was being asked, and the heard the answer and it was directed at them, and that is verified by another and there is no one saying they heard no such thing - we have a "scoop" that major media will run with.

At the moment only a Hillary hater would touch it - like Tucker, - or say Jack Tapper at ABC on his blog - Tapper runs with anything negative about Hillary and does not care if he knows he is mis-leading the world about her position on issues, or the significance of a event or a person, or if there is collaboration of what he is saying (a bit like John Stoessel at CNN).

If Obama wants to try play dirty and try to get this some play, Tapper is the one I'd go to.

For me - with this type of documentation - its interesting but only in passing and not all that important.
