So Hillary is doing post-debate spin for the Obama campaign?
This should be interesting...I think it's the first time she's done an interview as an Obama surrogate...it's cool that the Obama campaign trusts her enough now. I talked to someone on the train last week who knows her personally, and she said that since McCain picked Palin Hillary has been really pushing her supporters to vote for Obama and this person thinks Hillary genuinely wants Obama to win now.

1. Any details? Where is she going to interview?
She COULD be a fan-freaking-tastic surrogate.

3. I fought against her for 6 weeks
but I truly believe she was fighting for the right causes.

I just thought Obama was better.

4. I don't believe for a second that Hillary's strong support for Obama is in any way the result of
Sen. McCain's selection of Sarah Palin to be his running mate. I have no doubt she would be supporting him every bit as emphatically if McCain had picked Mitt Romney as his running-mate.

5. Publicly, yes
But I think part of her would have been hoping he lost so she would get another chance in 2012. And I think Obama would have felt the same way if the tables were turned, although probably less so because he's young enough that he could easily run again in 2016. I know she'll be 68 in 2016 but I hope she decides to run again...supporting Obama over her in the primaries was a tough decision for me and I was sad when she conceded.

6. did anyone see the look on her face when Blitzer asked Hillary
"Were you impressed by John McCain saying that he was no George Bush?" It cracked me up.

9. Funny that mccain had to get on the defensive
and come out and say it. When I think of all we put up with for 8 years with the chimptard and now he's treated like a poor leper.

8. Best part was when she said something like....
"And that is the Obama campaign's official position and I proud to bring this to you as a spokesperson for them."

It was very surreal.
