Obama Talks With Sawyer About Campaigning and Family- Mike S.

Summary- Barack Obama has been under attack lately by Hilary Clinton as she falls behind in the polls. “Sort of depressing lately” is the words used by Obama to describe her tactics. Today Obama pushed into a “double digit” lead over Hilary Clinton in New Hampshire primary. Clinton has attacked Obama saying that he is not the “agent for change” and that he voted for funding of the war in Iraq. Obama has explained that his views have changed and that was back in 2002 right after September 11. Hilary has said that she has been scrutinized more then Obama and that he has to learn to take it. He goes on to describe his experience on the campaign trail with his family.

Reaction- I feel that Hilary is feeling desperate. It looked to her before the Iowa cacus that she was going to with the Democratic nomination hands down, but she was wrong. I feel like this is a last attempt to gain back support and doing it by putting down Obama. I feel that this isn’t going to help her one bit.

I also feel that her telling the world the amount of scrutiny she has been put under in the past year compared to everyone else is not the way to go about it. It is almost like she can’t take back what she likes to dish  out for lack of a better explanation.  I feel that Obama will take New Hampshire and keep pushing ahead in the polls.
