    The account from Huffington Post, for those of you not wanting to mess with the video:
    Democratic candidates gathered in Iowa today for their final debate before the January caucuses. The overall feeling of the debate was cordial considering the recent heightened spats between Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton's respective campaigns.

    The atmosphere tensed up briefly when Obama was asked what new foreign policies he could offer with a staff of so many ex-Clinton advisers.

    Hillary Clinton laughed out loud, and said with a smile on her face, "I'm looking forward to hearing that."

    Obama, also smiling, waited for the laughter to die down before saying, "Hillary, I'm looking forward to you advising me as well."

        My favorite part is where they cut the video to her reaction.

        She's smart enough that she knows that she has to continue to try to keep smiling and laughing, 'cuz if she shows that she's been stung, it would look far worse. There is a moment during her reaction, though, where you can see that she is, in fact, trying, and realizes that her attempt to throw out a zinger that would create some positive buzz backfired on her.

        Moreover, what's up with throwing your head back and laughing and interjecting a sarcastic comment into a question that's not even posed to you? I'm not sure that she would have come out looking great regardless of Obama's reaction. Seems kinda snarky and unprofessional.

        I'm pretty biased, though. Any Hillary supporters out there want to explain how this could have ended well for her?
