Obama Doesn't Get Any Lower Than This...

I guess this should have been expected... After numerous times throwing his white grandmother under the bus by calling her a 'typical white person' among other things both on the campaign trail and in his book, his "rushing" to his grandmother's side in Hawaii, seems more like a campaign stunt to play on the sympathy vote than an actual emergency. The timing is too perfect. I would venture a position that after the election she will have a 'miraculous' recovery. Why do I think this is a political stunt?

"OBAMA INTERVIEW: LETS TALK ABOUT GRANDMOTHER'S HEALTH
Wed Oct 22 2008 18:09:23 ET

CBS EARLY SHOW co-anchor Harry Smith conducted an exclusive interview with Sen. Barack Obama earlier today in Richmond, Va. Among other topics, the senator told Smith why it’s so important for him to take a break from his campaign to see his grandmother. “My grandmother's the last one left,” Obama told Smith. The senator added, “She has really been the rock of the family, the foundation of the family.” Obama didn’t get to his mother before she died. “Yeah, got there too late,” he says. “You know, I mean, it was sort of like this, in the sense that she had a terminal illness. We knew she wasn't doing well, but you know, the diagnosis was such that we thought we had a little more time and we didn't. And so I want to make sure that I don't make the same mistake twice.”

I find this too convenient that Harry Smith would make this a pillar of his interview for the CBS Morning Show if it wasn't a stunt... Obama would sell his Grandmother if it meant winning the White House... perhaps the nurses should check her bed for a price tag after his visit.
