Re: No More Obambi!
Ana suggests the media have inflated the Obama-on-the-attack story line. No question they/we have. And she's right that calling out Clinton for deliberate opacity on entitlement reform is hardly a vicious personal attack. But let's not forget that the inflation began with Obama himself, who sat down for a New York Times interview in order, in part if not in whole, to tell the world that he was now going to take the fight more directly to his colleague from New York. That's the kind of discussion of strategy and process that is bound to drive reporters to their keyboards, especially when it comes from the candidate's own mouth. Surely Obama and his team anticipated this reaction. Not to would have been....naive.
