Obama Camp Hits Hillary's "Refusal To Denounce Or Reject" Ferraro

Here's the latest statement on l'affaire Ferraro from Obama campaign spokesperson Bill Burton:

“With Senator Clinton’s refusal to denounce or reject Ms. Ferraro, she has once again proven that her campaign gets to live by its own rules and its own double standard, and will only decry offensive comments when it’s politically advantageous to Senator Clinton. Her refusal to take responsibility for her own supporter’s remarks is exactly the kind of tactic that feeds the American people’s cynicism about politics today and it’s why Barack Obama’s message of change has resonated so strongly in every corner of the country."

Earlier today, Hillary said that she doesn't agree with Ferraro's comments, in which she seemed to suggest that Obama's race is responsible for his success in the campaign. And Hillary added that "both of us have had supporters and staff members who've gone over the line." But she didn't denounce or reject Ferraro.
