From the BBC:
An adviser to Barack Obama has resigned after a Scottish newspaper quoted her calling rival US Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton "a monster".Samantha Power has expressed "deep regret" over the comments and said she had tried to retract them.
The Scotsman newspaper quoted Ms Power as saying: "She is a monster, too - that is off the record - she is stooping to anything."
Ms Power is a Harvard professor who has advised Mr Obama on foreign policy.
