Battle Royal … Barbs Thrown at Debate Between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama

It would appear that Barack Obama is asking the same questions that we were just the other day …who is actually running for President in the Clinton clan, Bill or Hillary? It was hardly a love-fest last night at the Democratic debate in South Carolina.

Even in the superheated atmosphere of their fight for the party’s nomination, the statements and exchanges between Clinton and Obama were unusually acrimonious and personal. The debate came as the two campaigns continued to complain about dirty politics and disenfranchisement of voters in last Saturday’s Nevada caucuses.

As Obama tried to defend his recent comments about Republican ideas and Ronald Reagan, Clinton interrupted and said she has never criticized his remarks on Reagan.

“Your husband did,” said Obama, who has accused the former president of misrepresenting his record.

“I’m here. He’s not,” she snapped.

Obama persisted, suggesting the Clintons were both practicing the kind of political tactics that had alienated voters.
