Obama better learn how to spin the MSM media if he want to win Nomination
It was Hillary who pushed the Obama's "bitterness" comment up to the MSM media until they ran with it on the evening news.

But the story of the day was NOT Obams's "bitterness" comment nor was it Bill Clintion's bringing up the Hillary fish story about Bosnia sniper fire.

The story of the day was "Hillary's laugh and crackle" in response to the question of whether there was a conflict of interest between Bill Clinton taking $800.000 in money from Columbia for a speech and some of that money winding up in her campaign for the nomination for president since she is against the Columbia Trade Deal?

Obama should have and needs to, do like Hillary, push "Hillary laugh and crackle" up to the MSM and make them report the story and not bury, hide and drop the story.

Obama should speak about this story in his next speech and all of the rest of his speeches until the MSM picks up on it and reports it like the Rev. Wright story.

To just laugh and crakle when caught in a conflict of interest REVEALS more than Obamas "bitterness" comment.

What say you forum?

5. There was a time when I would have agreed with you,
but not now. Obama has sewn this up without playing those games. He has taken the high road, and it has paid off. Why start that now? Maybe in the GE, when he is fighting Republicans, that will become necessary, but even then, I think it should be a last resort.
