The war of the words between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama surrogates is heating up.
Former President Bill Clinton, stumping for his wife, spoke of a hypothetical Clinton/John McCain general election race:

"I think it would be a great thing if we had an election year where you had two people who loved this country and were devoted to the interest of this country," said the former president. "And people could actually ask themselves who is right on these issues, instead of all this other stuff that always seems to intrude itself on our politics."

The Obama camp saw this as a shot at their candidate's patriotism and unleashed Gen. Tony McPeak, who served in the Clinton Administration, who compared the former President to Joe McCarthy:

"It sounds more like McCarthy. I grew up, I was going to college when Joe McCarthy was accusing good Americans of being traitors, so I've had enough of it."
"It's a use of language as a disguised insult. We've seen this before, this little clever spin that's put on stuff."

"I have no idea what his intentions are but I'm disappointed in the statement. I think Bill Clinton is, or ought to be, better than that."
