GRINNELL, Iowa (CNN) — The college student who says she was told what question to ask at one of Sen. Hillary Clinton's campaign events told CNN Monday that she wasn't the only one at the event who was a plant and said "voters have the right to know what really happened."

In an exclusive interview with CNN, Muriel Gallo-Chasanoff, a 19-year-old sophomore at Grinnell College in Iowa — whose story in her campus newspaper has now been widely circulated — said that giving anyone specific questions to ask is "dishonest," and the whole incident has given her a negative outlook on politics.

"I sort of thought about it, and I said 'Yeah, can I ask how her energy plan compares to the other candidates' energy plans?'" Gallo-Chasanoff said.

"'I don't think that's a good idea," the staffer said, according to Gallo-Chasanoff, "because I don't know how familiar she is with their plans." Watch the student ask the planted question »

He then opened a binder to a page that, according to Gallo-Chasanoff, had about eight questions on it.

"The top one was planned specifically for a college student," she added. " It said 'college student' in brackets and then the question."

LOL...

I like this part..

Clinton campaign spokesman Mo Elleithee said Clinton had "no idea who she was calling on."

Plants don't work unless they know who to call on. Clinton! Don't make your stupid lies so obvious!
 
Edwards for me. The $500 haircut boy :cheer:


There's something I kind of like about edwards. Maybe it's his amazing good looks, and lilting southern accent. If he is really a washington outsider who will not get bought off, that would be cool. But somehow it never works out that way.
 
There was a republican stratigist on MSNBC last night who said that as he traveled with Guliani's campaign yesterday in Iowa the same question was asked in the same verbage in two different locales. EVERY campaign does this. It gives them softballs to hit. IF this is the only thing people are going to go after Hilary for she is going to tap dance to the whitehouse.

Tiana was right about you. Just come out of the closet already.
 
I am voting for Paul in the primary here in NM and then after he loses I will probably hold my nose and vote for the dem. Can't vote Guiliani, that guy thinks the patriot act doesn't go far enough, can't vote for Romney, he was endorced by Robertson and I will NEVER vote for anyone that supporter of theocracy supports. Hillary terrifies me, Edwards wants to tax small businesses out of existence. I could get behind Obama because I think he is outside the mainstream but he thinks gun ownership is a privledge and not a right. Richardson would be my guy but he will NEVER win the primaries, even if he has moved up in the polls. All these candidates and so little choice.
 
The Hitlary is a closet Marxist who has pretended to be a moderate centrist, sometimes righty her entire life, since she was 4 years old, always knowing someday she would become president and be able to force socialism upon us…if she stops at socialism…if not we could become a full-blown communist Stalinist country. Either way we are doomed.

Who am I?

You sound pretty close to SF, who believes Hitlary has engaged in some elaborate ruse to "appear" to be a moderate.
