Jane Hamsher watched the debate…
…so I could
Obama: "I feel bad for you, John..."Heh™. And this...
Edwards: "You don't feel that bad..."
Hillary then went after Obama for his "present" votes in the Illinois legislature. Obama defended himself by saying it was a way to support a bill he had technical problems with, and Edwards said Obama had criticized him for taking bad votes -- would it just have been better if he'd acted for political opportunity and just didn't take tough votes?Really? That's new, isn't it? I thought the story on the Illinois Senate (non) votes was based on strategic concerns worked out in cooperation with the supporters of the legislation in question, not on any problems, "technical" or otherwise, he had with the legislation on which he voted present - much of it pro-choice legislation.
What were the objections, then? The whole story, please, not the one slip of the tongue at a time version.
