ANDERSON, S.C. — The battle for South Carolina is making Nevada look like a pillow fight. The Obama camp has been accusing the Clintons of distorting their record, particularly in stretching the candidate’s mild-ish praise of Ronald Reagan to make it seem like Obama adored the Great Communicator.
Not to be outdone in the complaining-about-dirty-tricks-department, Hillaryland has posted a list of alleged Obama’s nasty statements on NAFTA, Bill’s paid speeches and the Clintons reported “20-year pact of ambition” to rule the universe.
“Senator Obama and his campaign have engaged in the very kind of political kneecapping and distortion that they now purport to detest,” reads the intro.
Our favorite “distortion” is the very last one, which seems to be just a garden variety re-telling of L’affaire Rezko.
