However, it seems to me that that much is made about things that seem to matter so little in the grand scheme of things, I don't think people change their minds about candidates based on Hillary's Bosnia gaffe or tears or Obama's lapel pin or Hillarys missing pin. This particular gaffe is no different than anything you could point at to in McCains camp or the Clinton or Obama's camps. If such things could change a large group of voters minds then I would be very worried about the future of American politics.

We really can’t call them gaffes anymore since there have been so many umm, untruths, exaggerations, prevarications. Let’s just call a spade a spade: Osama/Obama is a baldfaced LIAR! This time he told a whopper in New Mexico on Memorial Day. The only other explanations are that he suffers from premature dementia or he is just plain dumb. Making a pitch for both the Vet vote and the Jewish vote, (both of which groups already know what he is), he claimed his uncle helped free the victims of Auschwitz. He’s been exposed–again! For that and other truth-challenged claims see: http://hotair.com/archives/2008/05/27/obama-my-grandfather-liberated-auschwitz/ Next thing you know, Osama/Obama will say he saved Hillary from those dastardly snipers in Bosnia.
