Hillary: Why Is Barack's Bigger than Mine?

Both Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton spoke at Furman University in South Carolina last week -- but sources say Clinton is pissed because Obama upstaged her -- literally!

On Tuesday, Barack was given access to Furman's 1,400 capacity McAlister Auditorium -- while Clinton made her Thursday speech from the smaller, 500 capacity Younts Conference Center. Apparently, size does matter!

We're told Hillary's people were steamed when they realized that BO had a bigger room -- and complained to the organizers of the events. A call to Clinton's people was not returned.

2. Size doesn't matter in this case. How many people showed up for each? I'd rather be Hilary speaking to a SRO crowd than Barack speaking into an empty cavern.

5. Probably matters how many people were expected to show up. Obama is a more likeable guy so he gets bigger crowds.

9. My university booked rooms based on potential tickets sold, if Hillary couldn't fill the room oh well. Poor Hillary, she is such victim, everybody is out to get her and she is just poor little girl with no power, no resources, and no way to defend herself....oh, well unless you count the fact that her husband was president, she is a sitting U.S. Senator and they are multimillionaires with TV cameras reporting every word they say...however does she manage with so few resources. Poor sweet defenseless little thing.

We've had the Clinton's 8 yearss and the Bush's 12 years - another 8 years of Hillary IS NOT CHANGE PEOPLE.

12. Probably because she is a totally socialist and the world is starting to see right through her. He's just one step above her from the same cloth. Liberalism is the end of this country, Bush has the same liberal thinking as a democrat!!

15. Whitewater, Filegate, Travelgate, NAFTA . . . should remind everyone of the Clintons' reign in the White House. Hillary plan on health care is destructive to the working class. Can you imagine premiums being deducted from your paychecks without your employers’ contribution. Here’s the clinchers . . . Hillary wants to freeze interest rates for five years, of course, by then the dollar will be worth .05. As a person once said, “We'll all be working for the Chinese or Wal-Mart.”
