According to the press media (and as confirmed by video), while Hillary Clinton was shoring up the party unity effort giving a magnanimous speech exemplifying her commitment to the Obama campaign and the party, Barack Obama reportedly left his home wearing golf clothing and carrying a golf bag. Needless to say, this effort took balls, and not of the dimpled variety.For someone who has so much at stake, for a candidate so desperately needing Clinton to assist him in securing the votes of four distinct and critical voting blocks in order to secure the Presidency, the mere mention of his playing golf at a time like this is pathetic.
Realizing this all too late, the Obama campaign doubled back around and claimed Senator Obama watched the speech "on his computer." As Obama is now the presumptive nominee, he must resist the urge to appear callous to the Clinton family, and unappreciative of their efforts, today, and in the future. He obviously has not made a good start in this area.
Today's score: Clinton Eagle, Obama, Double Bogey
This is not the Senate where you can phone it in as you have done in the past.
This is not the Illinois statehouse, where voting "present" is good enough.
You have a mountain to climb, and barely squeaked by with the party nod.
We are watching you, Senator.
Don't fuck this up, or that thud you will hear will be the voters you draw to the polls in November (especially us loyal Clintonites).
