Clinton Cancels on the Cablers

Sen. Hillary Clinton's staff had confirmed interviews earlier today with Fox News Channel, MSNBC and CNN. They were to be conducted after the President's State of the Union address. After wrapping an interview with Sen. Obama, CNN's Anderson Cooper said, "Senator Clinton agreed to talk with us. At the last minute she canceled. Her campaign is offering no explanation."

MSNBC and FNC confirm with TVNewser that Clinton canceled her appearances on those networks as well.

23. She probably got a Tip-off that they were going to gloat

about Camelot at her expense.
They were gurgling about Kennedy's self satiriizing speech all day.

2. You're being so petty and childish
Perhaps there was a good reason for the cancellation. Perhaps not but the Obama supporters look like children when stuff like this comes up.

17. The thought that anyone involved in last night's handshake melt down has the right to call anyone...
petty and childish, is pretty funny.

4. I was waiting last night
The pundits did say, they were expecting Obama, Hillary, McCain, Jim Webb and others to speak...but as time wore on...there was no Hillary.

I won't jump to conclusions, but I wonder what happened.

Do you realize that your relentless spewing of nothing but bile and hate makes you look a little... off?

9. To Answer questions
Or just to claim victory in front of her supporters?

I would think, last night was a great opportunity to speak about Bush's address, the endorsement, etc. It's what the others spoke about.

Why duck out?

11. Who knows?
Do you honestly think she's the first politician to back out of a press interview at the last minute? There are a thousand possible reasons - but fear is not among them.

15. She was AFRAID to answer questions
because she got a ROYAL SMACKDOWN yesterday, so Wolfson/Rove pulled her, he didn't have a response.
But they sent out their PAID bloggers at Talk Left and Taylor Marsh , and Craig Crawford to slime the Kennedy endorsement.

27. She was going to be asked two questions over and over again
1. Has Bill become a liability?

2. What about the Ted Kennedy endorsement?

She passed; probably not a bad idea.

21. Well....
Since you say there are thousands of reasons for cancellations, then I'd say, FEAR could have indeed been one.

If we don't know why she canceled, you can't say without hesitation, you're right.

20. If that were true
she would've canceled two days ago.

There are a thousand reasons somebody has to change plans - fear isn't among Clinton's.

7. I shining example of an Obamatron
If you have to have that cute little Obama graphic you may want to consider posting something of substance, not name calling. Just remember if by some miracle he wins the nomination, you will be on your knees begging me and those like me to support BO in the election........So keep up the childish attacks and name calling because it is all you have! Your early, the first obamatron shift usually doesn't start posting until 8:30. Oh oh look here they come now honey, the library must be open.

24. I support Obama - But I think this is a BS issue
Maybe she wasn't feeling well. Maybe she was tired. Maybe she had a flight to catch to be somewhere else. Campaigning non-stop really wears on the candidates. They get very little sleep, mostly subsist on road food, and are always on the go. I'm cutting Hillary some slack here.
