The Consequences of Opting Out

AP slams Obama.

Your Democratic colleagues (Feingold) call you out.

Even left-leaning commentators acknowledge your lack of scruples.

Actually, the truth is pretty plain, as almost all of the reports today will reflect. Barack Obama did not pursue aggressive negotiations with the McCain campaign over the public financing system for the general election.

OBAMA: Yes.

Way to go Senator.
