I partially watched a puff bio piece on Obama the other night—must have been on Biography. Coincidentally enough, one of his Dem challengers in the primary had info about his divorce released too. Anyone got more info on that? I can’t remember the guy’s name offhand.
Blair Hull
…..the Tribune finally admitted that it was Axelrod and the Obama campaign that brought pressure on the press to demand the unsealing of M. Blair Hull divorce records, which had had their contents leaked to media outlets by the Obama campaign even earlier. The Obama campaign also helped orchestrate a demonstration by women’s groups demanding Hull’s withdrawal from the race. Coincidentally, this was the same weekend Obama’s first commercials hit the airwaves. Interestingly (or maybe not), the same exact thing happened to another of his rivals–Jack Ryan. Certainly gives one pause.
