“We f***ed up in Ohio. In Ohio, they are obsessed and Hillary is going to town on it... She is a monster, too—that is off the record—she is stooping to anything. It looks like desperation. You just look at her and think, ‘Ergh’... The amount of deceit she has put forward is really unattractive.” —Obama’s foreign policy advisor Samantha Power
The preceding quote is a curious way to render a resignation, but Samantha made it official today:
"With deep regret, I am resigning from my role as an advisor [to] the Obama campaign effective today. Last Monday, I made inexcusable remarks that are at marked variance from my oft-stated admiration for Senator Clinton and from the spirit, tenor, and purpose of the Obama campaign. And I extend my deepest apologies to Senator Clinton, Senator Obama, and the remarkable team I have worked with over these long 14 months."
