Obama

I predicted the day HRC said it that we would see the McCain campaign use these words against Obama:

"In the White House, there is no time for speeches and on-the-job training. Sen. McCain will bring a lifetime of experience to the campaign, and Sen. Obama will bring a speech that he gave in 2002."

I fully expected it would be in a television commercial to try to drive a wedge between Clinton Democrats and Obama Democrats.

Instead, it came in an autocall from the GOP and the McCain campaign to millions of voters in swing states.

The response from a Clinton spokesperson:

"Senator Hillary Clinton does not approve this message, and as she crisscrosses the country, she has said time and again that the choice in this election could not be more clear. The McCain/Palin ticket offers only more of the same failed policies while the Obama/Biden ticket offers the vision, leadership and positive solutions we need. I wonder why the Republicans aren't using those words?"

And I wonder why she ever said the words in the phone call, knowing they'd be used against Obama if he became the nominee. And when she said them, there was an excellent chance that he would be.
