Sunday Morning Mashup of MEET THE PRESS:
TOM DASCHLE

On NBC's Meet The Press, Tom Daschle, an Obama supporter, questioned if Hillary Clinton's Record as first lady qualifies as experience.

"Hillary Clinton was a great first lady. I worked with her. I know what a good first lady she was, but it would be hard for me to draw some degree of connection between being a first lady and having experience to be the commander in chief. She served in the senate, she's been on the armed services committee and I give her credit for that, but in terms of numbers of years of elected office, the number of years served, Barack Obama has more years served than Hillary Clinton"

Hillary Clinton was a great first lady. I worked with her. I know what a good first lady she was, but it would be hard for me to draw some degree of connection between being a first lady and having experience to be the commander in chief. She served in the senate, she's been on the armed services committee and I give her credit for that, but in terms of numbers of years of elected office, the number of years served, Barack Obama has more years served than Hillary Clinton, so it's a specious argument. The fact is both of them are qualified, they're good candidates, they both would make great leaders. (Meet The Press, 2008.03.09)
