Today Hillary Clinton spoke out about the controversy surrounding her comments about R.F.K. and Obama. She said, "Almost immediately, some took my comments entirely out of context and interpreted them to mean something completely different -- and completely unthinkable." Personally, I agree with her that she didn't mean it the way it came out but I also do understand how some people might be offended by her statements.
It was just bad judgment on Clinton's part to make any statement like this especially at such a fragile time right now for the Kennedy family. This issue has been overblown by the media and by some people on the Obama campaign, but not Obama himself who has urged to put this matter behind us. But I repeat myself again that this is another instance where an unnecessary controversy can hurt Obama in the general election.
