...Philadelphia "will go down in history for the relentless vulgarity of its questions" [May 5]. But the questions weren't so much vulgar as they were vapid. The only thing moderator Charles Gibson forgot to do was follow Barbara Walters' infamous example and ask Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton what kind of trees they would be. Holmes Brannon, WOODLAND PARK, COLO...
...Klein feels certain that Pennsylvania voters based their choice on "low-information signaling" and the social body language of the candidates. The bias and sheer presumption of this piece is astounding. Did Klein consider for a moment that maybe those who voted for Clinton think her just as capable as Obama of having a high-minded conversation? Most voters embrace hope and are ready for change, but the reality is that both Democratic candidates can offer these things.

As an Obama supporter who was first drawn to him by his desire to transcend "gutter politics" and those who practice them, I don't want to see him join so many other politicians, including the Clintons, there.

...spiky for a supporting role. Her fans laud her for refusing to subsume her identity to her husband's political ambitions. Her critics - and there have been many - accuse her of endangering the electoral chances of the left-leaning party she's championed all her life. Nope, not Hillary Clinton. The target of these barbs is Clinton's one-time counterpart from across the Atlantic, Cherie Blair: wife of Tony, mother of four, human rights lawyer, and, it now emerges, astonishingly frank autobiographer. Her book, Speaking for Myself, appears on May 15. Perceptions of life behind the shiny black door...
