Obama Takes the High Road
Senator Obama has responded to John McCain’s “Celebrity” ad calling it “demonstrably false”
“Is that the best you can come up with?… Is that really what this is election is about? Is that what is worthy of the American people? Even the media has pointed out that Senator John McCain, who started out talking about running an honorable campaign, has fallen back into the predictable political attacks, the demonstrably false statements. Here is the problem… These negative ads, these negative attacks, spending all this time talking about me instead of talking about what he’s going to do. That’s not going to lower your gas prices. That’s not going to help you stay in your home if you’ve fallen behind on the mortgage. That’s not going to help you find a job if it has been shipped overseas. It doesn’t do a single thing to help the American people. It is politics as a game. But the time for game playing is over.” -Senator Barack Obama, July 30, 2008.
