Season of Silly Politics
"With all due respect. I won twice as many states as Sen. Clinton. I've won more of the popular vote than Sen. Clinton. I have more delegates than Sen. Clinton. So, I don't know how somebody who's in second place is offering vice presidency to the person who's in first place," he said.
Obama also said the Clinton campaign was "hoodwinking" voters when it suggested he was not ready to be president while also floating the possibility of a joint Clinton-Obama ticket.
"I don't understand," he said. "If I'm not ready, how is it that you think I should be such a great vice president?"

This is part of what I love about Obama. Besides having a generally good head on his shoulders, he's proving himself to be supremely tactful while not letting others bully him around. He doesn't respond to Clinton's negative campaigning with more negative campaigns. he simply points out the rediculousness of them. And in this latest round, where Clinton is now painting herself as being gracious enough to share the ticket with her rival while simultaneously putting forth the image that she's on top, all Obama has needed to do is stick to the facts and Clinton looks like an idiot all on her own.
