In their current dust-up, does Hillary or Obama have the high ground?
Obama, Clinton rivalry flares over donor By NEDRA PICKLER and BRENDAN RILEY, Associated Press Writers

WASHINGTON – The rival presidential campaigns of Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama (news, bio, voting record) traded accusations of nasty politics Wednesday over Hollywood donor David Geffen, who once backed Bill Clinton but now supports his wife’s top rival.
The Clinton campaign demanded that Obama denounce comments made by the DreamWorks movie studio founder, who told New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd in Wednesday’s edition that Sen. Clinton was ambitious and polarizing and her husband “reckless.”
The Clinton camp also called on Obama to give back Geffen’s $2,300 contribution.
Campaigning in Iowa, Obama refused.
“It’s not clear to me why I’d be apologizing for someone else’s remark,” the Illinois senator said.
For her part, Sen. Clinton sidestepped questions, leaving the issue to her aides.
I’m as Democratic as anyone in my party, voted for Bill Clinton twice, but I won’t support Hillary Clinton. Barack Obama can’t be blamed because he’s a more adept fund raiser, and because Geffen decided to donate to Obama and then shoot of his mouth about Hillary. These days, just about every time she opens her mouth, she irks me–the only meaningful thing she could say that would matter to me is “I’m sorry for my vote on the Iraq War Resolution. I made a mistake.”
I won’t vote for Hillary Clinton….period. I don’t think that she truly is the front runner, and I think that Republicans are salivating for her to win the primaries, so that they can put McCain up against her and stomp the Democrats. Hillary Clinton is the Republican pipe dream.
Me? I’m a Wes Clark gal.
