At 2004 Book Forum, Obama Said "Slash-And-Burn Politics" Was Damaging To Democracy

      Obama’s campaign isn’t particularly negative. Romney is just such a punk that he can’t take anyone saying anything bad about him. He can dish it, but can’t take it. Romney’s entire campaign is about being negative about the President; it’s the only thing he can run on. He can’t run on his record at Bain and has explicitly asked that the President not mention it. He can’t run on his record as governor. He hides every aspect of his life and his work, and he won’t give us details about what he’d like to do as president. All he can do is hope that the President won’t say bad things about him. Pathetic.
