Hillary Clinton sides with critics of trade deal, says Obama should listen

The L.A. Times reports:

Hillary Rodham Clinton waded into the increasingly intense fight among Democrats over trade on Sunday, saying President Obama should listen to critics of a proposed Pacific trade deal, led by House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, and try to come up with "an agreement that would be better and not worse for American workers."

Clinton, who had avoided commenting on the trade debate for weeks while it was under consideration in Congress, told supporters at a gathering in Burlington, Iowa, that "I have held my peace because I thought it was important for the Congress to have a full debate without thrusting presidential politics and candidates into it."

The leadership quality of Hillary Clinton.
