Rival John Edwards, who campaigned in South Carolina on Tuesday, echoed Clinton’s comments in the debate.

“I would not commit myself on the front end openly to meet with [Iranian President Mahmoud] Ahmadinejad, [North Korean leader] Kim Jong Il, [Venezuelan President] Hugo Chavez,” Edwards told reporters in McClellanville, S.C. “I think there’s a real potential that would be used as a propaganda tool.”
