As a native of small town Iowa, this entire "Bittergate" thing has seemed contrived and desperate on the part of the Clinton's. It has always reminded me of "What's the matter with Kansas". And that is how I took BO's remarks.
There is a great link in a short item on MyDD (yeah, I know) regarding bittergate. The diarist links to a YouTube of Barack on Charlie Rose in 2004 discussing these issues. Even for the people trying to make a mountain out of this molehill, it is a great explanation of BO's position in his own words.

Fairly obvious what BO is talking about. It would be great to move the number of views up on YouTube and get people to see what BO really was talking about.
