"Hillary Clinton is playing the kind of politics that Americans say they detest." True 1136/67% False 555/33%

Votes: 1691

From the op-ed article "Indiana, go with Obama" published in the May 4, 2008 edition of the Chicago Tribune. In endorsing Senator Barack Obama over Senator Hillary Clinton for the Indiana Democratic Party presidential primary to be held on May 6, the Tribune editorial staff wrote:

"Look what we've seen from Hillary Clinton's campaign in recent weeks. Her embellishments about the purported danger of a 1996 trip to Bosnia. Bill Clinton's statement that the Obama campaign "played the race card on me"—and Clinton's later, laughable denial that he had used those words. We've seen a campaign that has sought to tear down its opponent and pander to voters. The Clinton campaign is playing just the kind of politics that Americans say they detest.

"We need a president who can forge consensus and compromise among ideological foes. Barack Obama is that kind of Democrat; Hillary Clinton is not."
