Subject: Re: Obama States The Obvious
Party machine politics ran from the Civil War to 1976. Remember Boss Tweed, Tammany Hall?

That is what I took away from the video. The headline on the video was needlessly provocative as Carplan pointed out but after seeing Obama speak, it was clear to me he was talking about politicians in general and was not admitting any personal guilt. Obama is a sharp politician and would never make such a blunder.
