“I understand him (Bill Clinton) wanting to promote his wife’s candidacy. She’s got a record that she can run on,” Obama said on ABC.

She has a record?

“This has become a habit, and one of the things that we’re going to have to do is to directly confront Bill Clinton when he’s making statements that are not factually accurate,” Obama said...Bill Clinton makes statements that are untrue - file that under "well duh"......

"Obama says Bill Clinton’s criticism is ’troubling’"

Barack better start fighting instead of sounding like a wussy. His time is up. He needs to kill Hillary in SC on the Clinton machine will steamroll him on Super Tuesday.

I love that Obama is taking out the Clintons.

It is like a Proxy war.

<“You know the former president, who I think all of us have a lot of regard for,

Yeah, all you liberals. Certainly not us conservatives.

Clinton is like a parent at his kids soccer game making an a## out of himself.

[acapesket]

Can’t make an ‘ass’ out of an “ASS”.. just gotta let him find his hole!

[khnyny]

LOL. Bill Clinton is just so unbelievably undignified for a former POTUS. Newsflash Bill - you’re not King anymore.

I think previous Presidents should retire gracefully, stay out of politics and shut up re current administrations.

Jimmy Carter should follow my advice too.:)

Time for Bubba to shut the f___-up. We listened to his crap for 8 years, enough already!

Translation:

"I'm sick of your goddam lies, honkey!"

Hey, Barak, you're new here aren't you? Join the club!

“We understand Sen. Obama is frustrated by his loss in Nevada but facts are facts. Sen. Obama’s allies in Nevada engaged in strong-arm tactics and intimidation against our supporters and his record against the war has been inconsistent,” spokesman Phil Singer said.

LOL! Funny to see one Democrat blame another for using "strong-arm tactics" and "intimidation". Pot, kettle, black. LOL! I'm just too funny.

“You know the former president, who I think all of us have a lot of regard for, has taken his advocacy on behalf of his wife to a level that I think is pretty troubling,” Obama said in an ABC interview to air on “Good Morning America.”

Obama simply doesn't realize how evil the Clintons are. He thinks he can wear a new white suit to this fight and not get any mud on it. The Clintons care only about themselves. Until Obama wakes up to that fact, it's highly unlikely he'll be able to win the nomination.

“You know the former president, who I think all of us have a lot of regard for,”

Depends now, on the meaning of the word regard.

I have a lot of regard for a tank, as do most people.

“Obama says Bill Clinton is troubling.”

(there, is that better?)

[COgamer]

As usual, Obama opens his mouth and out comes “Waaaaah!”

[DooDahhhh]

AMEN!!!! I am so sick of both of the Clinton’s and have no desire to hear her shrillness for 4 years. What are these people thinking? Obama is also a stupid choice.

[bricklayer]

BINGO!

[randita]

He thinks he can wear a new white suit to this fight and not get any mud on it.

I think Obama knows all about the Clintons, but he has to walk a fine line in criticizing them because he knows they are much beloved in some of the Democrat constituencies. Now that Obama is starting to get a majority of black voters behind him, I think he'll open fire.

There's not better way to go after the Clintons than to imply that they are untruthful. That's one of the main reasons voters don't trust Hillary and wouldn't vote for her.

Also, the Clintons cannot resist responding to attacks so Barack is drawing them out, engaging them in a war of words. When angry, the Clintons look mean and condescending. Obama can spar with a gentle voice and a smile on his face.

This is not a bad tactic on Obama's part. Thus far, he has played the Clinton's just right.
