Samantha Power's interview with The Scotsman raises an important question about the Obama campaign: are they being hurt more by Hillary Clinton or by their own advisers?

Imagine Obama and Clinton (and their unruly surrogates) not spending valuable energy slamming each other, but instead competing to keep the McCain and Bush records in the news.

We're at a point in the campaign where the world's media is on full-fledged "gaffe mode." If anyone should know how to conduct herself around a reporter she doesn't know in a situation like this, it should be Power.

Samantha Power won the Pulitzer for exposing the Clinton administration's monstrous indifference to genocide. For restating it impolitely on the campaign trail, she gets the boot.

It is not outside the realm of possibility that Senator Clinton IS, in fact, quite literally somewhat monstrous. She and her team DO seem willing to stoop to "anything," as Ms. Power claimed.
Andy Borowitz | Posted 03.07.2008 | Politics
More "more work will need to be done" if the Illinois senator is to mend fences with the monster community, said the executive director of the Monster Anti-Defamation League.

The "Iraq syndrome" is at the center of what will bring resolution to the genocide in Darfur, Power told a packed audience, and the next U.S. president will have to deal with it.
