Presidentvalskampanjen hettade precis till ordentligt. Clinton anklagar Obama för ett reklamblad om hennes stöd till frihandelsavtalet NAFTA.
“Shame on you, Barack Obama,” Mrs. Clinton said at a news conference after a morning rally, holding the flyers and shaking them in the air as she spoke. “It is time you ran a campaign consistent with your messages in public. That’s what I expect from you. Meet me in Ohio. Let’s have a debate about your tactics and your behavior in this campaign.”
“Time and time again, you hear one thing in speeches and then you see a campaign that has the worst kind of tactics, reminiscent of the same sort of Republican attacks on Democrats,” Mrs. Clinton said.
I reklambladet hävdas det att Clinton sagt att:
Nafta was a “boon” to the economy.
Citatet kommer ifrån en Newsday-artikel där man inte citerat Clinton och ordet ”boon” är uppenbart inte hennes.
Obamas kampanj försvarar reklambladet:
Bill Burton, a spokesman for Mr. Obama, said in an e-mail message, “Everything in those mailers is completely accurate.”
He added: “We look forward to having a debate this Tuesday on the facts, and the facts are that Senator Clinton was a supporter of NAFTA and the China permanent trade treaties until this campaign began.”
Ett avgörande i presidentvalet väntas tisdagen den 4 mars då bland annat Ohio och Texas röstar. Vinner inte Clinton båda dessa stater och helst stort är det kört.
