Obama: Step off.

"If I’m not ready, how is it that you think I should be such a great vice president?' Mr. Obama said. 'Do you understand that?'" Sen. Barack Obama probes an obvious fault line in the Clintons' kitchen-sink attack. "'With all due respect, I’ve won twice as many states as Senator Clinton,' Mr. Obama said, speaking over the applause of nearly 2,000 people who rose from their seats. 'I’ve won more of the popular vote than Senator Clinton. I have more delegates than Senator Clinton. So, I don’t know how somebody who’s in second place is offering the vice presidency to the person who’s in first place....I’m not running for vice president. I’m running for president of the United States of America.'" Well put. (See it here.)

For what it's worth, Clinton goon Howard Wolfson tried to square the circle this morning with this gem: "We do not believe that Sen. Obama has passed the commander in chief test. But there is a long way between now and Denver." Uh, that clearly doesn't make a lick of sense. Why does the Clinton campaign continue to assume that we're all morons? It's infuriating.
