Clinton, Obama continue bitter exchanges
Associated Press
Published January 23, 2008
WASHINGTON -Hillary Rodham Clinton argued on Tuesday that Barack Obama's frustration with losing prompted him to look for a fight in their latest debate. Obama said his rival for the Democratic presidential nomination and her husband, former President Bill Clinton, were distorting his record. "I think it's very clear that Sen. Clinton ... and the president have been spending the last month attacking me in ways that are not accurate," Obama told reporters in a conference call shortly after she lashed out at him in a bitter exchange that carried over from Monday night's debate in South Carolina. Speaking to reporters in Washington, Hillary Clinton said, "I believe that the events of the last 10 or so days, the outcome of New Hampshire and Nevada, have apparently convinced him to adopt a different strategy." The Obama campaign began a "truth squad" in South Carolina to respond to negative criticism.

Florida dem's will have no delegates in the Dem Natl Convention because Florida "cut in line" when we scheduled our primary election sooner than we were told. It sounds like a grade school shoving match, rather than adult politics.

Why does the Obama campaign want the boycott pledge to continue? Why are they trying to diminish the importance of our state? Why doesn't Sen. Obama care about us?
