and who we apparently give some kind of seal approval to."

That was Hillary's statement from the debate that will come back to haunt her a hundred times over in my opinion. She was trying to milk the Wright issue when she said this.

So far she and the Republicans have dredged up 3 guilt by association memes for Obama - Rezco, Wright and Ayers. I think Obama has defused all 3 and I personally am thrilled that this stuff came out in the primaries. Hillary put together a mud-slinging, no holds barred campaign that any Republican could be proud of.

I think Bill and Hillary have associated themselves with far shadier characters than Obama. I was shocked at her statement, to tell the truth, because it opens up such a yawning chasm of hypocrisy for her if anyone chose to follow-up with her line of reasoning.
