I absolutely agree. David Geffen hit so many misgivings about the Clintons right on the head -- and because he is an "insider-to-the-max", he was better able to articulate what lay people can only suspect about herself's shortcomings.
First, think the Hillary camp is making a HUGE mistake in attacking Obama on this, and I think Obama had a terrific response. (To paraphrase, along the lines of "I don't know why I should be held responsible for someone else's comments. If the Clintons have an issue with David Geffen, they should take it up with him. Funny they didn't have issues with him when he was raising $18 million for them)
Second, I also think the Hillary camp is making a HUGE mistake in attacking a former supporter. Talk about wanting to be anointed before the American public gets a chance to have its say!
Third, I think the Hillary camp is making a HUGE mistake in attacking David Geffen. he is not only an effective fundraiser and a powerful Hollywood presence. He is also very influential in the gay community.
The Clinton response shows absolutely no sense of perspective or humor. I never thought H was a viable Presidential candidate, but I did have some respect for her. Fading fast ...
