Obama and Clinton Tangle at Debate

In the most intense and personal exchange of the presidential campaign, Senators Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama assailed each other’s integrity and voting records during a televised debate on Monday in South Carolina, the site of a critical primary in five days.

If the debate was full of memorable moments — Mrs. Clinton accusing Mr. Obama of associating with a “slum landlord,” Mr. Obama saying he felt as if he were running against both Hillary and Bill Clinton, the two candidates talking over each other — the totality of the attacks also laid bare the ill will and competitive ferocity that has been simmering between them for weeks.

“You know, Senator Obama, it is very difficult having a straight-up debate with you, because you never take responsibility for any vote, and that has been a pattern,” Mrs. Clinton said, drawing a chorus of jeers from a crowd at the Palace Theater in Myrtle Beach, S.C.

She pegged the Sleaze-o-Meter at 10 Mega-Nixons repeatedly in '08. Even Olbermann was moved to verbally take her to the woodshed on a couple of occasions for her disgusting dogwhistling and the "well, Obama might not make it to the convention" yammering.

She's been disgusting for quite a while now.

Read Marcus Aurelius. Of each particular thing ask: what is it in itself? What is its nature?"
