If she did say that this morning, then she pulled an "Obama". You should know something about distortion, you post it daily. Hillary acted very dumb this morning by saying that Obama "blamed" small town voters. That kind of distortion will only antagonize super delegates - the very people whose help she needs.

Voters in Clinton Ad Strike at Obama By Kate Phillips Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton has just released a new TV ad for Pennsylvanians, featuring citizens (with no name identifications) who express their upset with Senator Barack Obama’s remarks about small-town voters. The script is as follows: Announcer: Barack Obama said that people in small towns “cling to guns or religion…as a way to explain their frustrations…” Woman 1: I was very insulted by Barack Obama. Man 1: It just shows how out of touch Barack Obama is. Woman 2: I’m not clinging to my faith out of frustration and bitterness. I find that my faith is very uplifting. Man 2: The good people of Pennsylvania deserve a lot better than what Barack Obama said. Woman 1: Hillary does understand the citizens of Pennsylvania better. Woman 3: Hillary Clinton has been fighting for people like us her whole life. To recap, the two Democratic candidates both went at it over this controversy today, as the primary on April 22 drew even closer. Mr. Obama continued to defend and explain his remarks from a California donor-session last week. Both he and Senator Clinton appeared before a group of manufacturing workers today in Pittsburgh. And Senator Obama went up with an ad this morning, using his best Pennsylvania weapon, Senator Bob Casey, to attest to the candidate’s understanding of issues in the state. Senator John McCain, the Republican presumptive nominee, weighed in today in Washington, calling Mr. Obama’s remarks elitist. And in a late meeting with the editorial boards of the Philadelphia Inquirer and Daily News, Senator Obama acknowledged that he misspoke but said he didn’t lie, according to a former journalistic colleague of ours, Will Bunch, who writes the blog Attytood.

McCain Calls Obama’s Remarks “Defining” by Bonney Kapp For the first time, Senator John McCain talked about Senator Barack Obama’s “bitter” remarks with reporters on board his campaign plane en route to Pittsburgh today. McCain said Obama has a “fundamental misunderstanding of the American people” which may be “defining” of the senator’s views about the nation’s heartland. Check out what he had to say here - and watch how he reacts when asked what kind of gun he’s planning on taking duck hunting…the reporter is referring to Senator Obama mocking Hillary Clinton as “Annie Oakley,” going out duck hunting every Sunday with a six-shooter.
