Obama spokesman Robert Gibbs denies that his candidate’s statement that John McCain will try to scare voters by saying that Obama “doesn’t look like all those other presidents on the dollar bills” had anything to do with race:
“What Barack Obama was talking about was that he didn’t get here after spending decades in Washington,” Gibbs said Thursday.
“Right, neither did Lincoln, but his face, along with those of many other white men, adorns a dollar bill,” writes Jonathan Martin. “Unadulterated crap,” is Allahpundit’s even pithier take on Gibbs’s spin.
