Obama: If you say it enough. . .

DURYEA, Pa. -- "I know that I’m not your typical presidential candidate," Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., told executives and employees of the Schott glass company Friday afternoon, "and I just want to be honest with you. I know that."

"And I know that the temptation is to say, 'You know what? …The guy hasn’t been there that long in Washington.,' You know, 'he’s got funny name,' You know, 'we’re not sure about him,'" Obama continued. "And that’s what the Republicans, when they say, 'This isn’t about issues, it’s about personalities,' what they’re really saying is, 'We’re going to try to scare people about Barack. So we’re going to say that you know, maybe he’s got Muslim connections or we’re going to say that, you know, he hangs out with radicals or he’s not patriotic.'

Once again, Obama is attempting to smear the McCain campaign. They have never hinted that Obama has “Muslim connections”. They never made even a slight attempt to make his race an issue, despite this fourth repeat of this particular smear.

"Just making stuff up," Obama said, "or that he never’s gotten anything done even though over the last 20 years I’ve given health care to kids who didn’t have it."

While his wife was trying to find hospitals, for those without insurance, to go to to get treatment. As long as it wasn't the one she was working at.
