Hillary on now, CSPAN, 4PM Eastern - Bill O'Reilly There
Edited on Sat Jan-05-08 04:28 PM by Sulawesi
From the introduction, I understand that "ready from day one" is the newest slogan.

- She seems good, but starts out pointing out how many empty chairs in the room.
- Moratorium on home foreclosures.
- Help for families to pay heating bills.
- Reverse Bush tax cuts..."Economic Action Plan"
- Challenges we face, a bit doom and gloom.
- "Everyone come in, we have empty seats here"...

- O'Reilly has an audience member as her plan to remove troops from Iraq. Long winded answer...I am not sure what she thinks. "I will tell military leaders to immediately get together to plan"

- Troops out within 60 days. Stabilize Iraq as we withdraw.

- Much more vigorous on health care.

My Assessment: Event is flat. Not really fair, as I am for Obama, but she is not the candidate that Obama is. Message lost in details, the style difference is obvious. I will vote for her if she wins of course. O'Reilly an unwelcome distraction that she handled well.

4. She's been using "ready from day one" for a while now
but thanks for the updates - I don't have C-Span where I am at the moment, so this is helpful!

5. She's answering that question....
Said there's no plan, and explains why one is needed; says she can start the withdrawal within 60 days; says we need to protect US citizens and the Iraqis who are targets now because they've served as translators for us; says we need to make clear to the government that it's their responsibility to make the political decisions for reconciliation.

7. No, she didn't.
She, Edwards, and Obama have all said they'd keep a smaller "residual force" there to guard the embassy and to be ready to move in against Al Qaeda if necessary.

Somehow she's been accused of wanting to continue BushCo's occupation, but this isn't the case. All three are pretty much saying the same thing (on this issue and others).

8. I like Hillary. I really do. I think she would be an awesome nominee
She's knowledgeable and likable and even funny.

The press hates her like poison, largely because they are know-nothing motherfuckers and she let's them realize that.

I would gladly work for her and vote for her in the general.

13. What Hill won't mention is that her universal health plan is a sellout...
to greedy health insurance companies.
