March 11, 2008 at 01: 07 PM n0m: it's waaay too easy to dig through things people said in public fifteen, twenty years ago and find a contradiction with what they're saying now. especially if you allow, or expect, people to change their ideas over time, and with experience. but let's assume that it IS 'hypocrisy' and not campaign positioning. i also think it's interesting that the "hyprocrisy" as you call it that obama mentions (which happened in 1992) happened at a time when obama himself was 30, too young to run for president. hillary clinton has stuff on the public record from 30 years ago she probably regrets. obama doesn't have anything, regrettable or otherwise, on the public record that's older than four years. now guess why i'm supporting clinton.
