Debate #4: Putting Barack on the Spot

Wednesday, April 16, 2008 | 7:29 PM

 

Bittergate, Rev. Wright, and he doesn't even wear a flag pin? Gibson and Stephanopoulos are hitting hard and Obama's clarification skills are being tested. The question is: does he sound too defensive?

First, frustration seems to be Obama's new buzz-word. Is "frustration" code for bitterness?

Second, after brief misunderstanding between the moderators and Sen. Obama, Stephanopoulos (off camera) interjected "did you disown him?" referring to Reverend Wright ... without getting flustered, Sen. Obama clarified that he disowned Wright's comments, not Wright.

Third, he doesn't wear a flag pin? Well, he's answered this one before.

But wait, something [somewhat] new: he has associations with individuals from the notorious the weather underground

Defensive? Big time.
