Obama campaign response to Politico
Response on Demers from Obama spokesman Bill Burton:

She was trying to conflate his public statements on federal lobbyists with an attack on Obama that was not an accurate reflection of his views on the issue. Demers' occupation is a well documented fact that is mentioned in numerous news stories in which he is quoted talking about Obama and it has been reported in that context multiple times on the campaign trail.

Interesting Hillary ONLY talks to press when she wants to spread her triangualating rhetoric.....good thing they are on to her. Mark Halperin was USED as her tool...nothing new with the MSM

1. 'Demers' occupation is a well documented fact' - then why did Obama lie about it during debate?

2. You do know POLITICO is a rightwing piece of shit. Ask them "cui bono?"
Her statement at the debate last night was plain. Jim Demers is a lobbyist, and a busy one, too.

6. Here is all I have to say ...Obama **39%** Clinton 26%
She is going down no matter what spin and triangulating.
You want to relive the demise of the Democratic Party and the destruction of the Progressive movement with a Clinton in the WH...Well ENJOY IT

9. Huh?
If it's a well-known fact that he's a lobbyist for Pharma, why did Obama deny that fact during the debate? Isn't that a lie?
