Like the Murphys...

US presidential hopeful Barack Obama has been attacked by rival Hillary Clinton’s camp, who claim his comments about working-class Americans – in which he called them “bitter” – were condescending.

“How dare Mr Obama make patronising, sweeping statements about the ordinary working members of society?” said Senator Clinton. “The typical American working-class person is a simple, cheery, hardworking soul who knows the value of a dollar and believes wholeheartedly in the American dream. And I should know - one of them parked my car for me only the other day.”
