Bill On Obama And The Debate: You Didn't Hear Hillary "Whining"
Obama isn't the only pol using last night's debate to his advantage. On the trail today, Bill Clinton waded into the skirmish over ABC's performance, pointing to the loud complaining coming from Obama backers in order to rally his own wife's supporters:
"When I watched that debate last night, I got kinda tickled," the former President said at an American Legion Hall event in St. Mary's, Pennsylvania, "After the [debate], her opponents', oh, the people working were saying, 'Oh this is so negative, why are they doing this.' Well they've been beatin' up on her for 15 months. I didn't hear her whining when he said she was untruthful in Iowa or called her the senator from Punjab.""And, you know, they said some pretty rough things about me, too. But you know, this is a contact sport. If you don't want to play, keep your uniform off," Clinton told a loudly cheering crowd.
