McCain said "lipstick on a pig" about Hillary |
|
Last October McCain used the phrase to describe Hillary's health care plan. Now he whines that Obama uses the same phrase. McCain criticized Democratic contenders for offering what he called costly universal health care proposals that require too much government regulation. While he said he had not studied Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton's health-care plan, he said it was "eerily reminiscent" of the failed plan she offered as first lady in the early 1990s.
"I think they put some lipstick on a pig, but it's still a pig," he said of her proposal."http://www.swamppolitics.com/news/politics/blog/2007/10/mccain_rolls_out_health_plan_a.html

8. Y'know, I don't think Obama's use of the expression was an accident... |
|
In this case, I think they were baiting the McCain camp to react the way they did. Then boom, Obama camp turns around and chides them, among other things, for using the 'gender card.'
