Hillary vs Obama feud

[JaJae]

Has anyone been following this feud? Here's the way I understand it.

Geffen, a long term supporter and contributor to the Clintons, has claimed support to Obama while trashing Hillary and Bill's ethics and character.

In retaliation Clinton lashed out and attacked Obama with a slew of dirty politics. She also demanded she return the money and demands that Obama apologize to her.

To which Obama basically said the Clintons had no problem with Geffen when they took his $18 million and asked why he should have to apologize for something somebody else said...

Now Obama has said he's tired of the tit for tat and wants to move on. Does anything think Hillary is capable of a running a clean campaign against Obama or is she going to resort to the dirty politics?

Hillary is being stupid about this and it's this type of thing that will keep me voting from her.

I wouldn't quite call this dirty politics though.

Obama handled this very nicely I think.

Clinton is going to find herself in a much tougher race than expected IMO. If it comes to a decision between Hillary and some kind of neocon Republican, I'd vote for Hillary in a heartbeat. The neocons have done far too much damage to our nation on so many levels for me to support any of their endeavors.

However, in the primary process Hillary is not someone I'm excited about being the Democratic nominee. Obama has so many qualities that she doesn't and I think he has a real shot at becoming the next President and beating anyone because of his optimism and aura of being actually a genuine person.

I agree. It's bothering me that the media seems to be even-handedly placing blame on Hillary and Obama for this feud. Obama clearly has the moral high ground here. I think a lot of media outlets are afraid to portray Hillary too negatively right now. Hopefully that will change as this continues.
