Obama, Clinton make pitches in Pa. Harrisburg, Pa. | May 10, 2008 12:01:13 AM IST
Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., in what observers say is his most negative advertising of the primary season, cast his opponent as a compromised Washington insider. Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., responded by suggesting Obama's message has become old-fashioned politics, asking Democrats to look harder at the two contenders for the Democratic presidential nomination, The New York Times reported. The two candidates criticized each other as Tuesday's primary in delegate-rich Pennsylvania looms. Polls show Clinton leading Obama but he was closing the gap. Obama, hoping to lock up the nomination, outspent Clinton 2-to-1 on television advertising in Pennsylvania, with commercials challenging her healthcare plan and hinting she was beholding to special interests. At a campaign stop Sunday in Bethlehem, Pa., Clinton reminded voters of Obama's being defensive during last week's debate about recent gaffes and incendiary remarks made by his former pastor. It's no wonder my opponent has been so negative these last few days of this campaign, she said, because I think you saw the difference between us. (UPI)
