Actually I think she just saved him from some really embarrassing questions in the debate tomorrow night.
If Romney presses too hard, it will look like he's picking on a woman, Hilliary.

Or he could subtly throw it back at him that he's letting the most visible woman in politics fall on her sword, when the buck really should stop with him. Another sign of failed leadership that any kind of failure that his administration has had is never ever his fault. Women won't appreciate Barack throwing HRC under the bus to save his ass.

Hillary just gifted Romney.
If Obama plays dumb...Romney can press on why he wouldn't be speaking with his SOS.
Also, notice how NONE of her statement deals with the coverup/lies?
Shrewd move by the Clinton machine.

If it comes up, he should say the following:
It's good to see someone take some responsibility for the deficient security; however, Secretary Clinton cannot, and should not, take responsibility for the misguided policies that lead to the attacks.

Agreed.
This *may* save Barack on this issue, but Hillary is now done in 2016. This won't be glossed over in the 2016 dem primaries or general election.

I think some here are miscalculating this development. Lets watch the woman vote over the next few weeks.

What Romney should do, Is say, That he is grateful that Hilliary has taken responsibilty for not approving the security personnel, that was needed to protect our oversea's personnel. Leave it at that, either Obama will come to her defense or he will let her burn, right there, because Romney should push the did not approve the security personnel angle and not the cover up. The Security angle is really what is the most terrible thing..

Politico
quote:
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton tells CNN's "Out Front," "I take responsibility" for the Mideast violence on Sept. 11, remarks coming on the heels of the VP debate in which Joe Biden suggested the White House hasn't known of requests for more security in Benghazi.
In a clear nod to not only the election but the two debates coming in the next week, she added, "I want to avoid some kind of political gotcha."
She also cited "confusion" that follows any attack in determining what happened.
Biden's comment has sparked a fresh round of criticism of and scrutiny over the Obama administration about what happened in the lead up to the attacks. The State Department had said it was aware of security requests, which Obama aides have had to explain over the last few days by saying it is always handled by State.
But the situation, while not dominating the electorate, remains of concern to the White House

"I take responsibility" is for the attack. It doesn't seem to be for the video misrepresentation.
