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.

48. How can anyone who lived during the Clinton era want to put another Clinton in office? PLEASE PEOPLE, let's make a real change. I don't know if Obama is the right guy, but damn, NOT another Clinton! Enough with the Clinton's and the Bushes!!!

Tired of the whining and complaining, that's all Hill and Bill do. And by the way, I am a hispanic, divorced, mother of three and I will NOT vote for Hillary. She does not, has never impressed me. Never trusted those lying Clintons.

She will say, do (crocadile tears anyone) to get her way and into the oval office. YUCK, what a turnoff.

49. I guess I must be in the minority -- I don't care if the Dem candidate is black, white , woman or male -- just get the BEST person. Hillary has to use her shameful husband to help her while Obama stands out there alone -- running against TWO people -- Bill should stay out of it and go back to Hollywood where he belongs. Obama is a decent man and I feel sorry that he is going have to go through a bunch of dirt with those two Clinton's -- they don't play fair, never have, never will. She was HATED in the White House and by most of her staff, that should say something. I am scared to death she is going to make it and the tears made her "human", but don't feel too sorry for her she is viscious and will stop at nothing to attain her goal along with her "vice President Bill"!

53. Obama has three years in the US Senate, and twelve years in the Illinois Senate. Total 15 years legislative experience. Clinton has eight years in the US Senate. Obama seems to have 7 years more legislative experience than Clinton. I'm sorry, but being First Lady doesn't count, and we're not electing Bill.

54. I'm sorry, but doesn't it seem weird that someone who has the name Barack Hussein Obama could be the leader of AMERICA? I'm not racist... it just seems weird. I can just imagine that Osama Bin Laden would be thrilled.

And if you disagree with my comment, don't bother replying with hate messages because I don't read other messages beyond my own post.

55. I would rather be in a room with someone who can excite me instead of someone that would only put me to sleep. Obama is a great speaker and Hillary Clinton is awfully boring to listen to. The reason why Obama had a bigger room was probably because more people wante to listen to him. He is a great speaker. Has nothing to do with being black. That to me is hilarious! Hillary is scared that Obama will take the lead and she doesn't want that to happen. Clever inuwendo will eventually hurt her. Obama heritage is Muslim, but he does not practice it. He is very geninue and has a great repoire about him. Saw him on Conan OBrien last night and he was fantastic! Barack Obama will bring our country back to greatness! Obama for President in 2008!!

56. I think Barack Obama intimidates those of you who want to keep blacks under your thumb. He is an educated black man who is actually Bi-racial(he has a white mother). He speaks well and he has succeeded in life. He proves to the united states that a black man does have a chance at the white house. He shows the world that blacks can do whatever whites can do. All bakck me are not selling drugs, in jail or on the streets. This is an eduated black man and that is what intimidates some people that he actually knows his stuff and he has a chance to be president. So I say VOTE FOR BARACK!!!!!!!!!!

57. Lori, the problem wasn't Bill having an affair (although in private industry that would be considered sexual harrassment). The problem is that a sitting US President lied under oath in a legal proceeding. That is called "perjury". If you or I did that we would be thrown in jail for a few days.

58. Isn't it dirt attacks that Hillary has long been symbolized as polarizing, disgraceful, liar...? how pathetic Obama call record checking of his attacks. Hillary stand under lights, soo people can see her clearly. However, Obamas hide in darkness and shoot cunningly.

60. remember the three strike rule and you're lock in forever. remember some closet friends die unexplain. remember the intern incident. to much personal things they were dealing with and not enough food or payways for the american people. they were the youngest couple to win election, now they look like the oldest couplet to run again. it a change in 2008 and we the people is claiming it, mothers and fathers that lost sons and daughters in a toy war that the clinton and bush made up on the toy table with toy soldier and use our real young men and women to carry it out. took foodstamps from the children now want to raise foodstamps after half of them die from hungry. made the rich richer and took the middle class away and kept the poor poorer. remember the time everybody was doing fine until the clinton and the bush introduce themselves. I'm for the man with the biggest room with the biggest heart. this is the year everybody that been hurt through the job market, deaths, real-estate, lies and so on get back the peace. This man have never lost a race and I know God chose him to change this mess up country, becasue God heard our prayers.

Love you Obama
