Two of the Democratic Party candidates for the US presidency, Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, have clashed a debate before the South Carolina primary.
Mr Obama accused Mrs Clinton of saying anything to get elected. On Sunday he had accused her husband Bill Clinton of making false statements about him.
But Mrs Clinton said it was hard to debate with someone who never took Obama takes Bill Clinton to task ...
Democrats set aside race dispute ... responsibility for any vote he cast.
A third candidate, John Edwards, accused them of squabbling.
The three candidates also debated the economy and racial justice, with attacks on President George W Bush's plan to stave off recession.
Mr Obama needs to win the South Carolina primary to re-invigorate his campaign after the two recent defeats.
