David Mixner, longtime gay activist, says supporting Obama; Clinton gravely disappointed

“The only reason I hesitate is I am very leery of revealing personal conversations with friends because then you’re not a person who can be trusted. But I will say that there was an exchange and an expression of grave disappointment – especially from President Clinton to myself.”
