Obama and Clinton both wanted to tone down the heated debate over race, so we ended up with a boring, wonky debate.
It’s amazing to me, however, how Tim Russert and Brian Williams failed to press the issue on Obama’s and Hillary’s records on Iraq. This was the real point of contention last week, not counting the hyperventilating by the press over the race issue.
Bill Clinton challenged Obama’s record on the war and implied his record was very similar to Hillary’s record since 2004. That’s not the case, and the moderators didn’t even touch this issue. Pretty lame.
