Obama questions "fun" of attacking fellow Democrats
==“I have been for months on the receiving end of rather consistent attacks – well now the fun part starts,” Mrs. Clinton said, punctuating the word “fun.” “We’re into the last month, and we’re going to start drawing the contrasts, because I want every Iowans to have accurate information when they make their decisions.”==

Obama Objects to “Fun” Claim

Barack Obama today released the following statement in response to Hillary Clinton’s comments on the “fun” of attacking fellow Democrats.

“This presidential campaign isn’t about attacking people for fun, it’s about solving people’s problems, like ending this war and creating a universal health care system. Washington insiders might think throwing mud is fun, but the American people are looking for leadership that can unite this country around a common purpose, and that’s what I’ll continue to offer in this campaign,” said Barack Obama.
