I know this isn’t funny, so why am I laughing? Hillary is pisst of at Obama over his campaign literature. She's scolding him and Gov. Ted Strickland's standing behind her nodding. ha ha....it just looks funny. Then Obama responds and the poor guy looks frightened...I think Moogie was right, Hillary's mean. I think she scared Obama, heck even I'm scared. And I didn’t even do anything.
Settle down Hill, it cant be all that bad.
A visibly angry Sen. Hillary Clinton lashed out Saturday at Sen. Barack Obama over campaign literature that she said he knows is "blatantly false," while Obama called her outburst "tactical."
Sen. Hillary Clinton waves campaign literature she says is false. Ohio Gov. Ted Strickland is behind her.
Clinton jabbed the air with her hands as she told a crowd in Cincinnati, Ohio, that two Obama mailings spread lies about her positions on universal health care and the North American Free Trade Agreement."Shame on you, Barack Obama," she said.
Polls show Clinton and Obama are in statistical dead heats in delegate-rich Ohio and Texas, which both hold votes March 4.
With Ohio Gov. Ted Strickland nodding in agreement behind her, Clinton accused Obama of emulating the tactics of Karl Rove, President Bush's former political director who is reviled by Democrats.
Obama "is continuing to send false and discredited mailings with information that is not true to the voters of Ohio," Clinton said.
Watch Clinton demand a 'real campaign' »
One mailing says her health care proposal would force everyone to buy health insurance, regardless of ability to pay, a charge Clinton vehemently denied.
Obama denied Clinton's assertions that the literature was false.
"There's nothing in that mailing that is inaccurate," he said, adding that he was puzzled by the sudden scrutiny since the mailers had been around for days, if not weeks.
"We have been subject to constant attack from the Clinton campaign, except for when we were down 20 points. And that was true in Iowa. It was true in South Carolina. It was true in Wisconsin, and it is true now," Obama said.
He described Clinton's anger as "tactical" and defended his campaign.
"The notion that somehow we're engaging in nefarious tactics I think is pretty hard to swallow."

I’m 36 and I don't live in sunny SO. Cali anymore :-) ***MCCAIN ~PALIN 08!*** Governor Sarah Palin is someone I admire, respect and look up to. She's inspirational, an excellent role model, and ready to lead.
