The difference between Hillary and Obama.
The Hillary campaign would try to use Spitzer against Obama. Obama will not use it against her.

And, if you don't believe me, just look at Farrakhan, Rezko, 'as far as I know' (Muslim), endorsing McCain. All of these attacks were waged within the past three weeks.

Can any Hillary supporter show me where Obama has ever attacked Hillary like she has against him?

1. Watch for the Clinton supporters to be oddly silent or come back with something made up.
It's all they have.

8. You are abolutely right. And Obama would probably even try to say kind words about Spitzer

4.  You think Hillary would bring up a sex scandal that has nothing to do with Obama?
She's been in the position the Gov's wife is now in. No way would she do what you suggest.

7. Chicago press brought up Rezko long before she mentioned it. And it has nothing to do with the OP.

9. Yeah, and NYT brought up Spitzer.
But Obama's got more class than Clinton, so he won't bring it up.

12. LOL. It has nothing to DO with Clinton. Obama would like like a fool if he said anything.

13. And Rezko doesn't have anything to do with Obama.
Yet Clinton brought it up anyway.

17. Obama has as much to do with Rezko as Clinton with Spitzer.
Both have supported said candidates. Both contributed money to said candidates. Neither have been implicated in any crime by said perps.

The only tangible difference is that Rezko's still awaiting trial, while as Spitzer's apparently admitting his crimes.

10. Bullshit. Obama is directly involved in dealing with Rezko.
Hillary isn't responsible for her Governor's sex life.

23. Rezko is Obama's long time friend and associate. Not the same thing.
But have fun trying to make it that way! Good way to fill an afternoon, I guess. :)

18. Bo has tried and tried to pin racist remarks on Bill and his
followers blindly follow his lead. Anyone with half a brain would know that neither Clintons would ever do that. They tried to say she belittled MLK when she said Johnson got the Civil Rights Act passed which is a known fact. It wouldn't have been passed if he hadn't signed it. Over and over Bo lies and twists the thruth and his followers go along like sheep following the shepherd.

"She's been in the position the Gov's wife is now in. No way would she do what you suggest."

14. Obama made his bed with Rezko. No one else is reposnible for it.
Same thing goes for the sex life of the NY governor.

16. Not only is there is no alledged wrong doing on Obama's part,
but Hillary has 17 indicted friends and contributers to Obama's one and the latter is the point that I was making.

I think the associations of HRC to Spitzer are bs, but Obama supporters have been putting up with this kind of crap for months.

22. And will for several more. The Rezko business is just starting.

And I worry about the judge on the case. She worked with Ken Starr on Whitewater.

But it still doesnt make the "grasping at straws" attempt to say that these situations are comparable any more valid.

24. Well, she tried using the 'Obama is a muslim' to her advantage.
So, yes I believe she would use this against him.

25. So, that's zero then?
As far as I know, Obama has never personally used any of those smears against Hillary. Or, do you have a link?

30. Again, To Compare Farrakhan OR Rezko To This Spitzer Thing Is Ridiculous. It's Not Even Close.
First of all, it is highly unlikely she would've done any such thing. Second of all, to act like all 3 are in the same league with each other is asinine.

35. The Clintons have no ethics what-so-ever
Where as Obama does. This has been well established, but good point that here is yet another example.
