According to the Globe and Mail, she did:
  • The conversation turned to the pledges to renegotiate the North American free-trade agreement made by the two Democratic contenders, Mr. Obama and New York Senator Hillary Clinton.

    Mr. Brodie, apparently seeking to play down the potential impact on Canada, told the reporters the threat was not serious, and that someone from Ms. Clinton's campaign had even contacted Canadian diplomats to tell them not to worry because the NAFTA threats were mostly political posturing.

    The Canadian Press cited an unnamed source last night as saying that several people overheard the remark.

    The news agency quoted that source as saying that Mr. Brodie said that someone from Ms. Clinton's campaign called and was "telling the embassy to take it with a grain of salt."



I had brought this up last night but MEM seems to have glossed over it as well as most of the other points I've been bringing up, including the fact that Hillary and McCain share camapign managers from the same lobbying firm.

when Obama mentions "change you can believe in", I think it's real not just a slogan or how Bush described "change" when he was endorsing McCain the other day.
