Obama Secret ScandalHillary Clinton's camp claims to have information pertaining to an "Obama secret scandal", something even his most outspoken critics probably believe to be nonexistent. But the rumors started flying this weekend that Hillary Clinton was onto something. Clinton of course is no stranger to scandal and her enemies are far more virulent.
What could the juicy news be? Obama had sex outside of marriage? Obama once failed to pay a parking ticket?
That's one thing about Barack Obama. You almost want him to have some skeletons in his closet. He seems way too squeaky clean....and he probably is. Even his admittance of trying cocaine once did not provide us with the "Obama Dirt Fix" we are all so desperately longing for.
“She of all people, having complained so often about the politics of personal destruction, should move quickly to either stand by or renounce these tactics," Obama said.
Obama is currently listed with 7/2 odds to become the next US President at Sportsbook.com. Hillary is a big 1-3 favorite.
Mrs Clinton’s spokesman told the Times of London that she had “no idea” what the claim — reported by the conservative columnist Robert Novak — was all about. He suggested that Mr Obama had shown his naivety by falling for an old right-wing trick: “A Republican-leaning journalist runs a blind item designed to set Democrats against one another. Experienced Democrats see this for what it is. Others get distracted and thrown off their games,” Mr Wolfson said.
The weekend row reflects a growing testiness between the two campaigns. Mr Obama has irritated the Clinton camp by implying in recent days that Bill Clinton was executing a 20-year scheme for him and his wife to win the White House. “I’m not in this race to fulfil some long-held plan or because it was owed to me,” he said last week.
