Hillary Clinton Resumes Attacking Obama

NEW YORK—Less than 20 minutes after Barack Obama was elected the 44th president of the United States, New York senator Hillary Clinton officially resumed her political attacks against the Illinois senator and president-elect. “My fellow Americans, I admire Barack Obama, but in his first twenty minutes as president-elect, he has failed time and time again to deliver the change he promised,” the former Democratic presidential candidate said at a small rally in Harlem. “Mr. Obama may deliver a rousing victory speech, but right now this country needs more than just speeches. It needs real leadership.” In addition to her numerous scheduled public appearances, Clinton has also released a series of coordinated television and radio ads questioning the near half hour Obama has spent away from the White House, his failure to meet with a single foreign leader at Camp David since being elected, and the current lack of any female or minority appointments to his cabinet.
