On the same conference call, Clinton spokesman Howard Wolfson pointed out the inability of an Obama surrogate, appearing last night on MSNBC, to name a single legislative accomplishment that Obama has achieved. “That is a major moment for voters,” Wolfson said. In addition, Wolfson continued, “when you have Sen. Obama found lifting portions of speeches…that is a major moment for voters.”

On another issue, Wolfson said he knew nothing about a new 527 group that is reportedly planning to spend millions of dollars attacking Barack Obama in Ohio. “I’m not familiar with the 527 group that has been reported on,” Wolfson said. “I don’t know anything about it.” But Wolfson said it should not be an issue because other 527s have helped Obama in the past. “I can’t imagine that Sen. Obama is in any position to make an issue of this, given that there was a 527, I think it was called Vote Hope, that spent millions on his behalf in California.”
