7. AP: Obama Adviser Resigns After Comment

(03-07) 08:39 PST WASHINGTON, (AP) --

A Barack Obama adviser has resigned after calling rival Hillary Rodham Clinton "a monster."

A campaign official told The Associated Press Friday that Samantha Power's resignation is effective immediately.

Power told The Scotsman that Clinton is a "monster" who will stoop to anything to win. She tried to make the remark off the record, but the Scottish newspaper printed it anyway. She apologized in a statement and the campaign decried the remark.

Power is a foreign policy adviser to Obama and a Pulitzer Prize winner.

Your move, "monster."

6. She did the right thing.

Now the Obama campaign should call for Howard Wolfson to resign.

good grief

9. Obama has more than one foreign policy advisor.

Samantha Power is an awesome woman.
She supported Wesley Clark in 2004.

Susan Rice is also an advisor and is outstanding and her experience would make Hillary's look like an ant.
