Hillary returns to Congress.jpgby Katie Fretland

Hillary Clinton is traveling the next few days with stops in New York, Washington and Chicago.

Today the senator from New York starts in her home state with a fundraising breakfast with Sen. Barack Obama. Tomorrow, she is off to the Hilton Washington Hotel to deliver remarks to the League of United Latin American Citizens at the group's annual national convention.

In a weekend stop to the windy city's Navy Pier on Saturday, Clinton will deliver a speech to the American Federation of teachers for the group's convention.

Clinton was in Washington yesterday where she cast her vote against changes to the Foreign Intelligence Security Act that sets new terms for how the government can spy on suspected terrorists and provides retroactive immunity to telecommunications companies for participating in the government's program to eavesdrop on Americans without warrants. The bill passed.

Listen carefully to what Hillary says about Obama. It's called "damning with faint praise." The Clinton team needs to have Obama lose so that she can run again in 2012 on the premise that McCain likely will want to serve only one term and she will still be just 64 at that time. Expect to see her primary campaign statement in GOP commercials that Obama is not qualified to be commander in chief.


Clinton supports Obama through gritted teeth. You can feel the tension when they are together, pretending to like each other. Obama would be better served by Clinton disappearing.


Hillary haters above, at it again.
Obama supporters do not deserve her support. Too bad she is a loyal Democrat. I wish she would start a third party and run against Obama and McCain.


Why does Hillary Clinton deserve the financial support of Obama and his supporters?
