CLEVELAND — Sen. Hillary Clinton tonight criticized the media for being Obama-friendly, for the second time this week referencing this Saturday Night Live clip from over the weekend.
"If anybody saw 'Saturday Night Live,' maybe we should ask Barack if he's comfortable and needs another pillow," she said.
On this topic, my friend Carrie Budoff Brown has a good piece up over at Politico today, noting how few press availabilities reporters are often fenced off from actual voters at Obama rallies.
I've been traveling with Obama since Friday, and had that happen a few times at large rallies so I snuck into the crowd when I could. But he's also held three press conferences since.

She's right. The fawning of the press over Obama has taken a sickening turn. His supporters will be due for massive come-downs soon.

Clearly she is right and its a shame what the media has and continues to do--especially the moderators over at msn.

I don't agree with Kyle and Chris.Obama dosen't have much skeleton in the closet like Clintons do. Media can only go after him for his middle name, his race or his father being kenyan eventhough he grew up with his white mother and white grandparents as a christian.

She's looking smaller every day. The vast left wing conspiracy strikes again.

Hillary every question asked of her at the debate gave a good answer to the questions... Obama talked a lot and never answered the questions asked of him... It's a shame that everyone that CNN & MSMBC brings on are African American & others are for Obama... They should try to interview a few People that are on the Clinton's side!!! When they read messages... They are always from Obama People... I have never heard a message that is on Hillary side...

If anyones noticed, whenever hillary is interviewed she has many points to discuss about obama. when theres a debate face to face she tap dances all over the place. so who needs her???
I hope McCain picks a good veep and cleans obamas clock.....
