She exploded on a poor african kid who has his question misquoted by a translator. I think she owes everyone an apology for her unprofessional behavior and her out of control temper. She has a sore spot regarding ex president Bill Clinton which is also uncalled for considering he's helped her do her job.
But I did like her call for citizens to question and disagree with our country's leaders.

I thought it was a reporter that asked the question but it was a kid??
I saw her response to the question ..it was unprofessional, ungracious, unnecessary, cheap ...shame on her!... she should watch the video and reflect.
And I am a great Hillary supporter and can understand her being irritated....no other SOS has been asked their spouses opinon BUT....
She could've smiled and said "You'll have to ask his opinion when you see him"......it would've saved them both embarrassment.

From what I've heard it was actually a translator's error that caused the problem. But damn the facts, that just wouldn't sound as good to the NeoConfused as alleging she went ballistic on a child

Reason: spelling
I'll be upfront and admit I've never liked Hillary Clinton...period. However, being as fair as I can be, her temper tirade during a very public forum was unprofessional and I think to a significant degree shows the world her true character....which ain't pretty folks. She's jealous of Bill's success, she's angry at the world for not recognizing her (in her mind anyway) potential to be a great leader, she want's authority and power so bad she can taste it....and it just seems to always slip away just beyond her reach...in great part (my personal opinion only) due to the fact that many (if not most) people just don't like her or trust her. Her personality is NOT well suited to attracting swing voters (and obviously not conservative voters).
This incident I have to admit made me chuckle though.....you can't demand relavance, you have to earn it through positive actions and meeting peoples expectations in positive way. Her bitterness at the question (aparantly wrongly translated) shows that she knows exactly the situation and it makes her boiling mad that some don't see her as relavant. I've always felt she was a horrid example of a feminist since everything she has she pretty owes to Bill Clinton. Does anyone really think she'd have been a Senator from NY if she hadn't been first lady when Bill got elected ? Does anyone think she'd be Secretary of State if she hadn't been first lady first which lead to her being a NY Senator which lead to her running for President ?
I am in no way discounting the fact that she is a very intellegent woman. I've never denied that....but none the less politics and leadership is a lot more than just being smart. You have to find a way to get people behind you and support your efforts....and she has never found a way to accomplish this.

She didn't go ballistic...can't expect neocons and repubs to report FACTS but she was ungracious. But that's hardly a condemnation of her performance as a whole which has been great!
Just more nitpicking by the losing side as the economy starts to recover UNDER OBAMA!
I'm not a big Hillary fan, but I wouldn't call that ballistic. Ideally, she would have gotten a clarification of the question before she went off on the guy (He meant to say President Obama), but she looked like she'd reached her limit for suffering fools that day.
