4. Obama is pointing out the differences between himself and Senator |
|
Clinton. According to her camp, that's throwing mud.

thanks, well of course Obama is in no way slinging any mud, just highlighting the differences in how each of them stands on the issues in a forceful way!!! I mean if he said that she was a total jerk for staying with her husband after the way things went back in the 90's, staying with him to further her political career, now that would be mud-slinging!!!

6. Not necessarily. There was a time when two people could disagree |
|
and treat each other with respect. JFK was looking forward to thrashing things out with Goldwater in a series of debates.

I was just 3 when JFK was assassinated, and old enough to watch the RFK news on tv, but my first real awareness of politics was Watergate. And then, of course, Reagan.
