In its latest talking points memo, the Obama campaign takes advantage of a media moment.

    I'd go easy on the "Clinton endorsed" McCain promotion. All Clinton said was that she and McCain has more experience. Obama supporters are taking this a step further, suggesting that she was endorsing McCain, which implies that the candidate with more experience is obviously the one that should be President. If you think this way, then you shouldn't be supporting Obama, and if you don't think this way then you shouldn't be suggesting that Clinton endorsed McCain.

    In summary: Suggesting that somebody who has more experience is automatically more qualified to be President is NOT something that Obama supporters should be doing. The only productive response to Clinton's suggestion that McCain has more experience should be "So? Experience isn't everything, my candidate is more qualified because....".
