By not vetting Clinton, the Obama campaign looks small and insecure. Obama looks like a sore winner with a serious grudge. It comes across as personal and it looks bad on Obama's part. Not vetting her also makes him look a whole lot like the typical white guys women have had to go under, around, over, and through to claw out our successes. Not a good way to sell "change" to second wave feminists.
