Obama Attacks: False Portrayal of Sen. Clinton as a liar on Social Security using the talking point that the GOP used against Al Gore in 2000 October 2007: Due to a flagging campaign, Sen. Obama and his campaign/surrogates falsely paint Sen. Clinton as a liar, basically adopting the fraudulent words that Bill Bradley used to trash Al Gore in 2000 - words that were subsequently picked up by George Bush and the GOP and used very effectively against Al Gore in the 2000 general election. Even more audacious, if you will: Sen. Obama's character attack on Sen. Clinton was over a stance she took that was essentially identical to the stance Sen. Obama took in his own book. (Interestingly, in December 2007, the Obama campaign also mimicked the corporate media's and GOP's fraudulent attacks on Al Gore in 2000 - in their attack on Sen. Clinton. Now of course his supporters and surrogates complain about the media.) -- http://www.theleftcoaster.com/archives/011441.php
