McCain Camp: Obama Using ‘Schoolyard Insults’
John McCain’s campaign isn’t buying Barack Obama’s complaint about press coverage of his ‘lipstick on a pig’ comment, calling Obama’s talk of a new type of politics “empty.”
“Barack Obama can’t campaign with schoolyard insults and then try to claim outrage at the tone of the campaign,” McCain spokesman BrianRodgers said.
“His talk of new politics is as empty as his campaign trail promises, and his record of bucking his party and reaching across the aisle simply doesn’t exist.”
Earlier Wednesday, Obama characterized the response from the McCain camp and press as “phony outrage.”
“Enough is enough,” Obama said.
