a. Throughout the campaign, the Obama team repeatedly plays the race/religion card by distorting and twisting to the farthest extreme possible the words of anyone affiliated with the Clinton campaign.

a. In the aftermath of Clinton’s recent wins in Ohio and Texas, the increasingly desperate Obama campaign once again tries to play the race card by distorting comments by Sen. Clinton on 60 Minutes.

b. MediaMatters.Org and other reputable sources effectively debunk the above distortions of Sen. Clinton’s comments.

a. A senior Obama adviser is caught crossing the line with a derogatory remark about Sen. Clinton in an interview with a Scottish newspaper.

b. Obama supporters on message boards at news sources across the internet inexplicably defend the Obama campaign's right to make derogatory remarks about Sen. Clinton to the foreign press and intensify their typically vile, hate-mongering assaults on Sen. Clinton.

The foregoing is a quick summary of the "new politics" practiced by the Obama campaign and Obama's online supporters.
