Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama debate: attacks get personal

Democratic candidates Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama were caught in a huge debate on Monday, and at some stages in this U.S. presidential campaign debate it got a little personal. It seems as if Hilary did not like some of the remarks that Obama made about her husband Bill.

Hilary went on the attack and said that he was like the late President Ronald Reagan. Reuters reports that the debate went back and forth like that for a while, with Senator John Edwards having trouble trying to get a word in.

The argument started when Obama started to talk about Reagan, and Hilary said that she did not mention Reagan. Obama said “Your husband did,” in which Hilary answered “I’m here, he’s not.”
