Obama Double-Barrels The Duck Hunter
Addressing steelworkers in Steelton, Pennsylvania, Obama levied the strongest attack on The Duck Hunter that I’ve heard him deliver the entire campaign. He referred to her as Annie Oakley (from the musical Anne Get Your Gun) and said she is out there talking "like she’s on the duck blind every Sunday."
Not losing sight of John McCain in this bitter feud, Obama said he expected to be attacked by McCain, but was "disappointed" in The Duck Hunter.
Turning the tables on Clinton, Obama said Clinton’s record proved she was not concerned with working-class voters. Referring to money she has received from drug and insurance company PACs and lobbyists, Obama said, "I just have to remind people of the track record."
"This is the same person who took money from financial folks on Wall Street and then voted for bankruptcy bill that makes it harder for folks right here in Pennsylvania to get a fair shake. Who do you think is out of touch?"
"This is the same person who spent a decade with her husband campaigning for NAFTA, and now goes around saying she’s opposed to NAFTA."
Making a dig at Clinton’s hypocritical criticism of Obama in Ohio over NAFTA, he said: "She knows better. Shame on her. Shame on her."
