Policy Wonk for President: Clinton Says Green Collar Jobs are Inspiring

April 20, 2008 10:46 PM

ABC News' Eloise Harper reports: Sen. Hillary Clinton was fired up this evening at her final stop, a nighttime rally at Penn State in State College, Pa. Clinton proudly explained that she is a policy wonk -- and thinks that her proposals are as inspiring as speeches.

"There are those who say, 'Well, you know, talking about how we are going to create 5 million green jobs in specific detail about where the money's going to come from and how we're going to train people for green-collar jobs…well that's not so inspiring.' Well, I'm sorry. I find it incredibly inspiring," she said. "What I think we have to do is get beyond the generalities, get beyond the speeches, because when the cameras disappear and the lights are turned off you're electing a president to solve problems, not to give speeches."

Clinton explained that Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell is a "private policy wonk" -- and said he chose her because he liked her policies better.

"It's the translating of the ideas into reality that determines whether we are going to make any progress or not in the 21st century," Clinton said.

Clinton, while criticizing Sen. Barack Obama for saying John McCain, the Arizona Republican, would be a better president than George Bush, said that the current president should be "in the dust bins of history," but then turned to a criticism of Obama.

"We need a nominee who will take on John McCain, not cheer him on," she said.

Clinton, who is being outspent in this state where many of Obama's commercials are running , said to the crowd, "If we just vote on slogans and we just vote on commercials we don't know what we are voting on. Think of all the people who voted for George Bush."

Earlier at an event in Johnstown, Pa., Clinton reminded Pennsylvanians of the recent debate, where the candidate thought she had outperformed her opponent.

"This week Sen. Obama and I had a debate, and it shows you the choice you have on Tuesday," she said. "We both got asked a lot of tough questions. I'm used to that. It goes with the territory."

Clinton hit on her theme of reminding voters that the job of president is more difficult than a debate.

"Tough questions you get asked in a debate are nothing compared to the tough decisions you have to make in the White House," she said. "And I think that debate showed a big difference to a lot of people between me and my opponent. It's really a choice of leadership."

What is funny is that the only thing Oabama had going for him was that he spoke out against politics as usual. It is clear now that the only reason that he said that was because he had no experience. Now he is showing that he is the worst kind of politician.

Anyone but Obama 2008!

HILLARY is the BEST.

If not her...MCCAIN will pass the TEST!

This is why Hillary needs to be President. SUBSTANCE!

Hillary has shown that she can stand up to anyone... Obama, McCain, and anything else that comes our way.

Posted by: Bob21 | Apr 20, 2008 11:00:03 PM

Hillary talked about this FIRST in one of the earlier debates. Hillary talked about how "Green Jobs" were going to be "transformational" for the country. Recently, Obama started talking about his "ideas" for green jobs - wonder where his "ideas" came from? Hillary of course. In spite of the criticism that is heaped on her daily, at least Hillary is determined to get this country going in the RIGHT (not Wright or radical liberal left) direction for ALL AMERICANS!

Obama hasn't had an original idea since he started this race. just all talk and no sunstance

"We need a nominee who will take on John McCain, not cheer him on," she said. Hillary Clinton also said, "I have passed the commander-in-chief test. Senator McCain has passed the commander-in-chief test. Senator Obama has not."

I guess we should change Clinton's Campaign Bus from SOLUTIONS EXPRESS to DOUBLE SPEAK EXPRESS. The Clinton's sold the rights of workers & the Unions in America for $800,000 in 2005 to Columbia. Bush sells America to the Chinese for $12b each month to fight Cheyenne's /Halliburton's war in Iraq and Mark Penn tried to continue Clinton's plan in Colombia for 2009 until they got exposed. Double speak is all I can say. America is not for sale.

After the disastrous reign of Bush, we need Hillary to clean house, clear away the mess and fix the problems. I have no doubt she will end the war in Iraq, create millions of news jobs, jumpstart the green economy and get us on the right track. I honestly don't think Obama even has an idea of how demanding and challenging the presidency will be, let alone a grasp on how to run the country!

Posted by: hopesprings52 | Apr 20, 2008 11:14:27 PM

Hilliary and McCain... One and the same. All of you Hilliary's need to understand that the neo-CONS who want to invade the world and bankrupt our economy through expensive measures to "save" the enviroment from disasters that aren't even proven in scientific fields of study, are simply delusional. (and um, dare I say... REPUBLICANS!!!) Between occupying the world with our millitaristic empire, plus printing money to pay for more entitlements, while suing and bankrupting people who can't pay for "mandated" health care, on top of giving companies the right to pollute to the highest bidder; while destroying small buisness with expensive "green" initatives, causing further unemployment... I just don't see how your utopian view of the new world is going to succeed. I mean what good is a utopia when everybody is poor? They tried that experiment before, it's called Communism, and it ALWAYS fails! But hey, if you want to destroy America, feel free. It's just that if your one of those people who can't afford to move overseas, when we finally do implode, I think you don't understand or care to realize the predicament your putting you, your children, and the rest of us who will remain here in. Stop, THINK, then repeat... Eventually you will come to see the truth.

HRC said that during the debate that she would help create $8 million jobs. 5M for green jobs, another 3M for repairing the infrastructure.  Imagine 8 million jobs paying into Soc Sec. Brilliance right before us in my lifetime.  Unlimited possibilities for 8M, imagine that.  Can we get George out of office now and Hilliary in office today.  Obama promises "hope" and "change".  Look where hope and change has gotten us now.

It's Hillary or the Highway for me!
Of the three candidates left standing, she is the one with the best ideas and her strength, her tenacity, her understanding of the huge problems facing our country today is what we need!
Go Hillary Go!

It all depends now on the people of PA. I know those people, I respect those people. The train has left the station and hopefully BHO was on it. Go home liar

Posted by: Chipo1965 | Apr 20, 2008 11:24:16 PM

I truly feel sorry for all her supporters, but I think Hillary has no chance anymore to win the nomination.

Soon Hillary will be fighting for Barack and the Democratic agenda for America, against McCain. That is the REAL fight. Believe it or not but I really think this long race and these bitter fights have created a strong bond between Hillary and Obama. They both made history already, both of them fighting for changes and solutions for America that have very much in common (and TOTALLY differ from what McCain is offering). They went through exactly the same thing for many months now.

I really forward to the end of this fight between Hillary and Barack, and the end of the fight between their supporters. I'm getting so tired of all the bickering between people whio share so many fundamental values and ideas.I hope we will all come together in the fall, as Americans who want to change our country for the better.

So its the old "Chicken in every pot" just before an election, is it?

Posted by: Sara | Apr 20, 2008 11:28:40 PM

It's so clear that the way to grow our economy, create jobs, reduce global warming, move toward energy independence, and less entanglement in the Middle East is by growing the "green" economy. That is the future. That is where Hillary will take us. She is a practical visionary. She will make the most of this historic opportunity.

Posted by: hopesprings52 | Apr 20, 2008 11:32:25 PM

So Hillary can praise McCain to the high heavens, but when Obama says something mildly nice she attacks him for it? I never thought that my respect for her could sink this low, but she's managed it.

Posted by: CJ | Apr 20, 2008 11:36:53 PM

Obama is unelectable.

The media hype wont work anymore. The pandoras box is open.

Posted by: tomdavie | Apr 21, 2008 12:07:58 AM

I'm amazed by the fact that people still take notice of what Hillary decides to say every day, depending on the circumstances.

Normally one would ask congenital liars to simply shut up.

EVERYTHING Hillary says is a fabricated distraction. That's how it works, with liars.

Posted by: Greta | Apr 21, 2008 12:13:31 AM

Green Jobs! Yeah! That's how we roll with team Clinton. Nothing wrong with that my friend. A new day is a'comin' to Pennsylvania and to the rest of the country. Al Gore has nothing on Hillary.

"We need a nominee who will take on John McCain, not cheer him on,” she said.

O-M-G! What chutzpah! Her hypocrisy knows no bounds! (Are we in bizarro world again?) Did HRC forget that:

--She said she and McCain had passed the CIC threshold but Obama had not?

--She said she brought a lifetime of experience, McCain brought a lifetime of experience, and Obama brought a speech?

--Bill Clinton said, while speaking to a small group at a VFW hall in NC, that HRC and McCain were the two people who loved their country, insinuating that Obama did not love his country? (And I saw the full videoclip and read the complete transcripts—Media Matters is wrong.)

--Bill Clinton also said this: “She and John McCain are very close,” he said. “They always laugh that if they wound up being the nominees of their party, it would be the most civilized election in American history and they’re afraid they’d put the voters to sleep because they like and respect each other”?

Well, HRC is 60 years old and it might have been late and so who could blame her for forgetting a few details, right, Bill?

So—clearly we need Obama to actually take on McCain. Yes, we can!

Posted by: Boomerang | Apr 21, 2008 12:24:32 AM

The main point is exactly what she brought up. We are her potential employers, and as potential employers who would we hire, who would be best for the job? I was listening to the college age adults. One was mentioning that when Obama spoke, there weren't many details about his plan for our country. Hillary has a plan. There were people that are citizens that were born in another country, we spoke, they see that Hillary has desire to help our country and it isn't arrogant, it's REAL.
I really don't see why most of main stream media is pushing Obama, what REALLY is behind that?
I want my great country to go forward and in my opinion and in most of the logical people I speak with they can see it's Hillary that will give us our best chance of getting us out of this deep whole we find ourself in after Bush/Cheney.
If fear of race riots or whatever is causing people to speak out for Obama instead of the best candidate for the presidency then people need to rethink their motives for voting. Look at what FEAR has bought us the last 8 years.(I cannot figure out why anyone would vote for Obama based on his qualifications)
I just want the best candidate for the job and it's Hillary.

Obama campaign has been outspent in every state.
He even owe $600,000 to some vendors.
Most big contributors are not from online unlikely Hillary.
If he did not get those big donation to support his campaign he'd be lost already.

Green jobs, yes. Keep talking about your policies that will turn manufacturing and jobs around in this country, Hillary!

"We need a nominee who will take on John McCain, not cheer him on," she said. '

But she's the one that said people would be better off voting for McCain if she doesn't win the candidacy! What Obama said was an observation, but what Clinton said was practically an endorsement.

Posted by: justhesh | Apr 21, 2008 2:16:55 AM

I appreciate some of the complaining from Obama supporters about the three tough q's he got. I didn't enjoy the way Russert treated Hillary at the MSNBC debate.

The reality is the fall will be tougher. On the policy q's, when rhetoric wouldn't suffice, Obama was, well,just awful. For a great communicator he doesn't convey any sense that he owns any policy proposals, or sees them as the vehicle to deliver on the broad rhetorical goals he does deliver well.

I like policy to, I went from Edwards to Hillary.

As a younger woman of color, a lot of my most vocal peers have been for Obama. I tried to keep an open mind, and asked q's. Everyone's quick response was read the website, turns out I was the only one who had.

After 8 yrs of George Bush, I don't want to be post-partisan, especially when no one can tell me what that means, least of all Obama himself.

Serious, complex problems can only be solved with serious and often complex solutions. His speeches don't offer that, and I just don't know how else we're supposed to measure hope.

Posted by: Jas | Apr 21, 2008 2:19:18 AM

Please. If one candidate spends a bit more time here and there on an issue of substance, if one lies a bit more than the other, if one speaks better than the other, it hardly determines a good president, they are only small indicators.

Look at the lives these candidates have led. Both have a lot of interesting history. I prefer candidates who have spend honest time working with people in need. Obama is a community organizer, and his history shows he has been a fabulous and tireless worker for the rights of those less fortunate. Clinton has spent far more time looking for opportunities to grow her career than in selfless work that benefits others.

My PA vote goes to Obama!

Posted by: oh please | Apr 21, 2008 2:32:32 AM

It is no wonder Hillary did so much better in the debate. The only difference between this debate and previous debates is that it put the candidates on their toes and forced them to do some independent thinking. Obama had to make real decisions and come up with ideas that work and all he could do was complain that the situation was unfair. Is that what he'll do in the white house? Hillary has the unique ability to make good decisions and come up with great solutions on her own. Obama needs to copy these ideas from others, and most of his ideas he's copied from Hillary. Lets elect someone who can come up with solutions and make decisions on their own. Lets take our country back!

Posted by: Jon | Apr 21, 2008 2:43:48 AM

I totally agree. When facing tough questions, either the ones that were considered "distractions", or the ones about real "issues", Hillary clearly had the best quality to deliver thoughtful answers. I likeed very much how she explained her position on gun control, Iraq war, and the economy. Obama looked like a paniced high-school student being caught in a exam for which he hasn't studied for. His answers to those tough questions, Wright, Ayers, and bitterness, were so poor that I wonder if he should be in the presidential campaign at all. His answers to the real issues, he probably hoped no one was listening when he spoke.

I am for Hillary. Like she said, she may be a lot of things, but she is not dumb. And I truly believe she will make change to the country, and bring justice to gender-based inequity. Obama, according to his wife, is a guy who'd not pick up a sock on the floor and not put away butter from dinning table. I don't trust him.

Posted by: Amy | Apr 21, 2008 3:14:38 AM

Hillary didn't create 200,000 jobs in New York she promised. She blamed it on Al Gore, his fault for losing the Presidential election they couldn't work together.

Then it was Bush's fault not working on her New York behalf.

5 Million new jobs? Incentives for the corporates cutting jobs now? Does it stop the manufacturing leaking jobs to foreign countries? Doubtful, only executives will get the beneficial corporate tax breaks and their stock options rise.

We have to remember Hillary does know how to Federally reward friends and supporters.

After she championed NAFTA while First Lady, a whole bunch of lawyering to "fix it".

If she's fixing it, then the trade plan was flawed originally!


Some new job will be created for Bill and his staff having some undefined policy advisory role in the White House.

He'll have at least new 20 staff. He will jet around on Air Force 2 at his whim.

Three headed figureheads, Hillary, Bill and the Vice President.

Hiring a First Lady candidate for Hillary, someone has to do that job, an extra Federal employee.

It's a co-Presidency like it used to be in the 90's apparently.

The country can only be in the hands of Bush's and Clinton's. That's ludicrous!


Obama vs McCain, it's time for it already.

I can't wait to see Hillary supporting Democrats voting for a Conservative McCain trying to prove he is.

When Republicans and Independents want Obama, bitter Liberals will vote for McCain?

Can't vote for a black man, that's great to hear from Democrats when Obama is reduced to that description as an excuse.

I so look forward to oblama's concession speech.

Posted by: dem process is toast | Apr 21, 2008 7:44:28 AM

Excuse me? How is it that you say that Obama is UNELECTABLE but that Hillary is? You're so misguided and brainwashed. Maybe both of them are "UNELECTABLE".

I never liked Ms. Clinton much, but would've consider voting for her if she were the nominee.

However, after reading for weeks now the rationality of her supporters of why she is better than Obama, and how Obama is unelectable, and calling him Hussain, Osama, n....r, negro, etc., I'd rather not vote or vote for McCain than side with people like Clinton's supporters. Shame on you! You're a disgrace to the Democratic party (and this comes from an independent (leaning most to the right), that would've voted Democrat this election.

You, her supporters, are losing our votes as well as those of many young people and first-time voters inspired by Obama.

Posted by: SVO | Apr 21, 2008 8:49:59 AM

SVO,
Well I guess that works both ways. Some Hillary supporters for whatever reason won't for Obama so I guess each side has people who will go for McCain or not vote. So much for Obama's unifiying people.

Posted by: J | Apr 21, 2008 8:53:32 AM

Don’t you Clinton people get just what her umbrella comment was all about?

SENATOR CLINTON: Well, in fact, George, I think that we should be looking to create an umbrella of deterrence that goes much further than just Israel. Of course I would make it clear to the Iranians that an attack on Israel would incur massive retaliation from the United States, but I would do the same with other countries in the region.
Clinton vows 'massive' U.S. retaliation if Iran attacks Israel

Please tell me you dont want our men and women back into WAR!!! We have lost so many already!!! Wake UP!!

Posted by: BVosler-Cruz | Apr 21, 2008 9:37:47 AM

MLK, JFK and RFK didn’t make speeches about “green jobs”, so there isn’t much for Obama to say about this topic, now it there …? How uninspiring can he be? Can we stand yet another cheerleader touting empty, meaningless slogans?

Posted by: AmazonTraveler | Apr 21, 2008 10:05:49 AM

Not only has Obama commented "any of the three now running would be a good choice", "Better than Bush", thereby cheering on John McCain. He did so at the same time the DNC rolled out a new ad saying McCain was the SAME as Bush.
Wow, who's party is he campaigning for?

Posted by: BlueDog | Apr 21, 2008 10:52:25 AM

I am totally turned off by the meanness and fanaticism of the Obama camp. They are living proof of the emptiness of his supposed "new politics."

I'm supporting the civilized Democrat.
Who just happens to be miles more qualified.

Posted by: Judith | Apr 21, 2008 11:37:16 AM

Senator Clinton is by far the most qualified candidate. She has solutions to fix our economy and educational systems. She is a fighter and can get stuff done. Obama has proven himself to be a liar and a hypocrite and he is unelectable in November. It is time to vote smart

Posted by: Tobias | Apr 21, 2008 12:13:50 PM

Great ed piece ABC! I think we all know who is the MOST QUALIFIED and COMPETENT candidate! HILLARY CLINTON !!!!

Posted by: sand | Apr 21, 2008 12:50:50 PM

Go Hillary!!! You are brilliant and it shines through!! In all the other debates it seemed all Senator Obama did was say that he agreed with the answers Senator Clinton had given. It seems as time passed (Debates 1-20)he picked up all the answers she has given. I watched him try to be just like Hillary!!

Posted by: kt | Apr 21, 2008 1:07:06 PM

Yes We Can! We the People do know that Hillary Clinton has spent her life being competent for whatever reason. She has become qualified like no other candidate. She can percieve the realms of politics from many angles. Too many qualified people are standing with her. That is reason enough to see that she is a leader of leaders. Our country needs leadership to unify. She has accomplished that and we need to choose a VP. It is obvious to me that Gen. Wesley Clark is the qualified person to be the second *man.

Posted by: JB | Apr 21, 2008 1:07:23 PM

Hillary Clinton's vision for our country is extraordinary.

The Green Age! Right on! We have to imagine it, then roll up our sleeves and do it. Rebuilding America, Yes! End the war and use our dollars for our country. Early childhood education for every child? Yes, it will be a step toward making our country competitive again.

I am a doctor and it was Hillary's plans for affordable health coverage for EVERY SINGLE American that first drew me to her. She took her knocks on it before, but as President, she'll get it done. It's not just the insurance issue, either. She understands what makes good healthcare and what we need to do to maintain our health standards. I trust Hillary on this.

With Hillary at the helm, we will accomplish our dreams.

I'm Hoping for Real Change. That's why I'm voting for Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Bye Bye Obama. Leave your red states for McCain to carry. ('Can't stand this guy Obama.) I have no use for self serving jokers. Hillary is a better speaker anyday.

Hey Obama followers stop blaming ABC because Mr. Obama couldn't answer, how could you people protest so much and turning even the media against Charlie, those questions were simple for a candidate who new the issues. Mr. Obama has only himself to blame, who is he going to blame when he can't do the job in the white house? Pennsylvania Mrs. Clinton is the best candidate, stop that weir movement they are a danger to this country.

Posted by: alice | Apr 21, 2008 4:34:34 PM

HRC has been repeatedly thrashed by the MSM and Obama camp. She has suffered indignations ranging from anything from her hairstyle, laugh, facial expressions, teary eyes, to how she handled a crisis in her marriage. I meet some who are ready to toss her under the bus, but when I question them why, they cannot for their lives give me one good reason why. They sometimes want to drag up Vince Foster or other crap that is just so much Soros or Murdoch BS (Murdoch's daughter supports BO, BTW). Rarely do the remarks actually have anything to do with her stance on issues. The slanted media coverage has definitely played into the inflated perspective of BO's supporters. If you never see someone vetted, appropriately, and never see any positive coverage of the opponent, it is easy to see how BO has been given the support he has garnered.

So, now there's all this whining about BO's, finally, being vetted. This is just a fraction of what he would come up against in a general election. I am sorry, but I don't see how calling him on these questions, now, instead of allowing the GOP drag it out all shiny and new later in the late summer months, should he be the nominee, is a negative. This will render it all old news and round out the edges of any future damage being inflicted as long as he can effectively respond. I have to surmise from all of this protesting that it is more to denigrate HRC than to protect BO.

Watching as BO struggled during the debate, recently, I felt more and more convinced in my belief that he is just not ready. I am still not sure he ever will be with his ever unfolding story. I, like others, would like to believe that he will mature into a wonderful potential candidate for president, someday, but he is definitely not ready, now.

On this "bittergate" stuff; I have been a party to that type of group of wealthy, well educated, high minded, "more evolved thinking" individuals that BO was speaking to in SF. I can hear it all play in my head. There is a specter of elitism, if you want to call it that. I really hate that word, but I, also, hate the condescending attitudes of those same people. I do truly believe BO meant exactly what he seemed to be saying to the SF group. I think he was pandering in the most disingenuous way.

It is very unsettling. He constantly seeks to insinuate himself into such a more highly evolved status when he is really no more evolved at all. If he were, he would have insinuated himself more effectively, at the very moment of hearing, into the climate of the remarks of Rev. Wright. To do so only when called on to, demonstrates a lack of sincerity, honesty AND the leadership we desperately need to move our country in the right direction.

BO's camp, early on, subtly, played the race card in such a deflective way as to make it look like HRC's camp and supporters were doing it, instead. The manipulation of this over the months has been one of the most egregious aspects of the primary portion of the election.

I, also, believe BO's camp aggressively courts the youth vote with "change" as a form of manipulation. They make it seem like no one has ever courted the youth, before. Rock the Vote has been around for a long time, now. I remember being so all about change in my youth; so much so that I could not see the forest for the trees. What I took for "change" was just really someone's more calculating way of manipulating me. I was just too inexperienced to see it. My views and expectations of the world around me are still those of the hopeful youth I once was, but I am more capable of scrutinizing the source of the promises that are made.

The the final straw is BO's unwillingness to allow revotes in MI and FL. This, far and above everything else, shows his lack of respect for the American voters and the process that the Democratic party has held to be sacred. I stood in the pouring, freezing rain, all day and night, alone, in a dangerous neighborhood, in Cleveland, OH back in 2004 at the request of the Kerry campaign and the DNC to make sure not one single voter was disenfranchised. How can they not match my efforts, now??? This is disgusting. I am so beyond angry at the whole business. I will never forgive BO, Kerry or the DNC if the revote is not permitted.

HRC is much more ready and suited to be our next president. She is strong, tenacious, compassionate and committed. She is incredibly versed on all of the issues that she will face. On the unknown ones that may present themselves, I fully trust her to deal with, successfully - much more so than BO could over the next 8 years.

Hillary is clearly the candidate who can change America back to its former greatness
established in the 90's and go beyond. We don't need to change what worked for America but, we need to get back to it and push for the change needed to address today’s global economy market economics. Like Hillary's green technologies for example. Go PA, show the rest of "US" the way. Deliver her on to us with a landside. Let's roll PA for Hillary!!!

Posted by: Mary O'Bryan | Apr 21, 2008 5:23:22 PM

Obama isn't qualified to be a president aid, let alone a president. Hillary has ten times his knowledge. "A different kind of politics" is one in which the candidate doesn't have to know anything and can just speak in vague generalities and b.s. slogans, with neophytes swooning on cue.

Posted by: walden9 | Apr 21, 2008 7:51:46 PM

Hillary is truly brilliant. She thinks on her feel and I can relate to he down-to-earth solutions -- they make sense. I can imagine the change we all want happening when I listen to her.

With Obama he's all over the place trashing Hillary, trashing McCain, telling US how great Reaban and Bush Sr. was, and how McCain will do a better job. Then he goes back to trashing Hillary or Bill Clinton, who is not running for President, Hillary is.

Then when he's finished trashing everyone he get's in a final job saying Hillary is so Negative... What? Can you get more Negative than Obama?

Then he starts in trashing the USA, and everyone in DC, as if he's here to save the world and everyone is corrupt but him... He's different, a new kind of politician. What?

Plaees win Hillary, we need you to restore the USA to Peace and Prosperity with solid plans and pragmatic solutions. Obama is an inexperience wild card. We can't afford to gamble on Obama, and we won't have to if he gets the nomination, we'll be saddled with McCain.

I hope Hillary wins PA in double digits and the Super Delegates realize Obama will never win.

chippo1965, yes, America is not for sale, and that is why Hillary will win in PA despite the 9 million dollars Obama has spent...that is obnoxious!!!
