AP: "Obama turned away"
I guess it wasn't a DU rumor after all.

http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5iwAZfoVaIxMG3gK2KY4tpS9QN0NQD8UF9GT01

"Kennedy shook her hand while Obama, wearing a dark suit and standing between the two, turned away."

41. If he hadn't turned his back I'm sure she would have. She's a
professional, and knows how to treat others

5. Classless.
Hillary shook the hand of someone who just dissed her today.
She has what it takes to be the President.

18. So, he's petty, vengeful and unwilling to extend
to other Democrats the same gracefulness that he is willing to extend common repukes!

Oh, yeah! He's gonna make a great President.

20. Look at the pictures, Hillary was going to Obama AND Ted Kennedy.
It's CLEAR that Obama SAW HER and chose to WALK AWAY. UNBELIEVABLE.

YES THIS IS A BIG ISSUE TO ME. RESPECT.

25. Obama 2008 reminds us of Bush 2000.
He does not take defeat very well.

29. Honestly - maybe she was going to shake hands with Kennedy first (which
must have been difficult to do after the endorsement) THEN was going to shake hands with O, but he'd turned away?

It's really impossible for us to tell what ANYONE'S intent was -- Hillary's or Obama's.

28. Great picture
Hillary looks like she was going to climb over somebody to get to Teddy. Not the best photo op.

Why would Obama want to shake hands, for that matter, why would Hillary?

It went personal awhile back.

36. CNN reported it as it happened. The lady who was with Wolf
sounded like she was taken aback by Obama's infantile action. No doubt his "HOPE" is that she would just go away. What a fucking classless asswipe.
