Here's how Hillary could have responded to Obama.

[TheWraith]

Because some people here seem to still think that the smear and fear campaign was the only way Hillary could have gone, I present the following: the way that Clinton could have responded to Obama in an eloquent, clean, and aboveboard way.

On change:

"I completely agree with Senator Obama that we need major change in Washington. I've seen the system from the inside and the outside, as a congressional counsel, as First Lady, and as a Senator, and I know from up close and personal experience what needs changing."

On the war:

"When I voted to authorize the use of force in Iraq, I made a simple and, in hindsight, obvious mistake: I trusted the President. I thought that any President of the United States, no matter his views or his party, wouldn't send Americans into harm's way without every effort to insure the neccessity of the cause and their safe return. Obviously, I was wrong, and it's a mistake I've learned from."
