Phony Baloney Obama

Karl Rove today, WSJ:

Mr. Obama's ads show he's aware of his vulnerability on two fronts: his liberal values and his meager achievements. Yet he should be more cautious with these weaknesses. His bio ad says he was raised with "values straight from the Kansas heartland," though he grew up in Hawaii. He claims to have passed three bills, but fails to mention that two were in the Illinois state Senate and that he didn't vote on the third in the U.S. Senate. His new ad praises welfare reform, yet he opposed the legislation when a Republican Congress passed and President Clinton signed it.

Is this a smear Barack? Phony baloney Obama.

P.S. Latest poll, Americans cool to Michelle. Some views at the Sun Times. And is Cindy hotter than Michelle? Finally--is Michelle wearing well? Oops, more reaction here, including this telling tidbit:

Whites have an unfavorable view of Michelle Obama by 18 percentage points, while eight in 10 blacks like her. That is reminiscent of how Barack Obama fared in the Democratic primaries against Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Hillary voters are key.
