Obama Blames Hillary: 'She's Just Trying to Tear Me Down'


Barack Obama is still peddling that old time religion about how He represents GOOD and She represents EVIL. The man has got arrogance. And melodrama. And issues. In an interview with the Philadelphia Inquirer, Barack Obama lamented:

"She's just trying to tear me down, and that's not the kind of politics we've been about."

Cue the violins. Is this a relationship or a competitive contest between grown-up presidential candidates? And is Obama going to talk in these starkly personal terms about John McCain too? Or does Barack, um, have issues with women?

And 'that's not the kind of politics we've been about'? Excuse me? Does even a day go by without Obama presenting Himself as morally superior to Hillary the Jezebel? I don't think so. And I don't have the free month it would take to jot down all the negative and dirty attacks fired by Obama and his camp at She-Devil Hillary, but here's a timeline of a few of Obama's morally superior negative campaign tactics.

Oh, and didn't Obama's campaign co-chair just accuse Bill Clinton of McCarthyism? Talk about nasty and melodramatic campaigning! Oh, and didn't Obama's campaign manager just launch a personal attack against Hillary's honesty and integrity?

Not the kind of politics Obama is about? Is Mr. Morally Superior even on the same planet as the rest of us lowly reality-bound earthlings?

Philadelphia Inquirer:

Obama said that Clinton "has the right to continue to compete," but he agrees with Richardson that the campaign has turned negative - and he blames Clinton.

"She's just trying to tear me down, and that's not the kind of politics we've been about," Obama said in the interview.
