Clinton Experience?

Clinton claims to have more experiaece than Obama? What is her experience? She claims to have 35 years of experience, yet has held an elected position for less time that Obama has held and elected position.

If she manages to win the Dem nomination based on experience, isn't this an agruement she loses to McCain.

Isn't she basically saying vote for me instead of Obama becuase I've more experiance, but don't vote for McCain over me, because he has more experiance?

    Her ONLY experience if you want to call it that is she was married to a President.. That's like saying Deana Favre would be a GREAT NFL quarterback because she attended all of Bret's games since he was in HS...

    Hilary's other claimed experience is nothing.. she was a JUNIOR senator of NY(my home state) where she did ABSOLUTELY NOTHING except campaign for the upcoming presidential election. This lady is a joke!

    hahah i just read the comments from MrsPres... taking a quote from a personal friend of the Clintons and using it as fact? That's about as ignorant as it gets..

    Lip Service...That is it. She has NO MORE experience than Obama...neither have EVER been a PRESIDENT OF THE US...The ONLY experience Clinton has is being the WIFE of a PRESIDENT...NOTHING MORE. She is a Senator, just like Obama. She has not started a war, ended a war, changed the economic outcome of the US or anything else done by a PRESIDENT. So her "EXPERIENCE" is no more than a first time candidate, running for PRESIDENT. As far as her running against McCain, I honestly believe the Democrats will LOOSE and I repeat, LOOSE if Clinton wins the Democratic nomination...because if she does, and I doubt she will, I WILL NOT VOTE FOR HER...PERIOD. I am a democrat and I would be left with no choice but to cast my vote for McCain if, by some far reaching chance, she gets the nomination. I think the Democratic Party knows that if she does get the nomination, the Democrats will loose in November. I do not believe they will take that chance or gamble. With McCain having the war experience I think he will beat Clinton if it ever comes down to "EXPERIENCE"...but I do not think the people of the US are looking for experience in this election...I think they are looking for CHANGE and big change. Economy is THE MAJOR change for the good we are all looking for now. November will tell ALL.

    hillary is the biggest liar ever. It is very obvious. Not only that, but she has managed to screw another project that she has been given in a silver platter. First healthcare, now her own campaign. Lets analyze.

    She was given the nomination on a freaking gold platter, yet she screwed it up. Now the DNC doing everything possible to save her butt, and save face.

    She had the most name recognition

    The most endorsements

    The most money

    The insiders (DNC)

    The former President

    The most support going in

    With all that, once again she made this competetive, she should have wrapped this up months ago. It goes to show you how STUPID she is. Any project that is given to her, she bungles it up. Those are her credentials, she is truly inexperience, riding the coattails of her husband does not keep her from being STUPID and MORONIC. She is a true impostor. These are the facts folks.

    Both Obama's and Hillary experience (as they define it) pales in comparison to McCain's. After the Conventions, it will become brutally and embarrassingly clear to the Dems that their candidate is a flyweight in the experience department.

    But don't forget that her 35 years of past experience doesn't really count as experience, according to McCain. According to him, "decisions made in the past is how people without experience defines experience." I guess his experience now comes from experiences he will have in the future.

    “She has done her homework on national security and I know from my personal discussions with her and with many other friends that go in and brief her in her role in the Senate Armed Services Committee. She knows the facts, she knows the details, plus she has the big picture. She is a strategic thinker but she has the building blocks of the strategy in her personal knowledge. This is someone that when she is president our military is going to respect very highly, and when our Senior Officers brief her and meet with her they are going be very, very impressed by what she knows and the intelligence that she brings to these problems.”
