Washington Whispers by Paul Bedard

Clinton's Not the Only One Pandering to Voters

April 14, 2008 01:26 PM ET | Paul Bedard | Permanent Link | Print

Our favorite E-mail of the day comes from Sen. Hillary Clinton spokesman Phil Singer, who takes on Sen. Barack Obama's blast at his opponent for showing up at a bar, cameras in tow, to pop a shooter and beer. Here's Singer's note and photo display:

Sen. Obama today: "They'll promise you anything, give you a long list of proposals and even come around, with TV crews in tow, to throw back a shot and a beer."

Here's reaction from me: "With all due respect, this is the same politician who spent six days posing for clichéd camera shots that included bowling gutterballs, walking around a sports bar, feeding a baby cow, and buying a ham at the Philly market (albeit one that cost $99.99 a pound). Sen. Obama's speeches won't hide his condescending views of Americans living in small towns."

Hillary

Intoday's world....which is a mess, we need a leader whose head is CLEAR! Not one who thinks it is OK to be President of a world leader country and 'put down' a shot without so much as a cough! Hillary must be used to woofing it down?? Do I want her to make desions that effect all of us? Indeed not!
