"So when you think about who you want answering that phone call at 3 in the morning, you might want to consider who had the judgement not to be bulldozed into supporting a war that, I believe, has made us less safe."

Clinton, Obama yard signsClinton released an ad that asked who is best prepared to make a decision at a crucial moment. The tv spot showed children sleeping and the narrator asked "It's 3 am, who do you want answering your phone."

Meanwhile, the Clinton and Obama campaigns are sparring over political shadiness. Clinton is calling on Obama to release records pertaining to his ties to indicted Chicago real estate developer Anthony Rezko. The Obama campaign is calling on Clinton to release her tax returns, to prove that her 5 million dollar donation she made to her campaign was in her name, not her husbands, which would violate Federal Election laws.

Adding to the growing list of States who are making the switch from electronic voting machines back to paper ballots is Florida. Touch-screen voting machines in 18 Florida counties will be swapped.

And the manufacturer of voting machines in New Jersey blame human error not the machines for inaccurate voter turnout totals in the state's February 5th primaries. New Jersey's attorney general says they will look into the manufacturer, Sequoia Voting Systems, findings.
