Washington Whispers by Paul Bedard

More Bling for Obama and McCain Than Clinton

Here's more proof that Sen. Hillary Clinton's campaign is dead in the water. The daily Ann Hand jewelry poll of $45 rhinestone pins with the names of Sen. Barack Obama, Clinton, and Sen. John McCain has the two guys crushing her anemic sales. Last time we checked in on this story, Hand's Georgetown store had sold 80 McCain pins, 144 Clinton pins, and 286 Obama pins for supporters to wear. The latest count, as of Wednesday morning: McCain 310, Obama 759, Clinton 193.

Pin

1. Why is the media focusing on Senator Obama not wearing the pin, but not on Senator Cinton who also does not wear the pin?

Is this a racist media?

2. Why is the media not talking about Senator Clinton manufactured resume a resume that reflects her husband experience.

3. I sick and tired of the media saying Senator Clinton has more experience than Senator Obama. Senator Clinton was elected once by the electorates as a Senator. Senator Clinton served her full term as a Senator. Senator Obama was elected by the electorates once, but he did not serve a full time.

4. Why does this make Senator Clinton has a tremendous amount of experience than Senator Obama.
