New RNC Ad Shows Why Obama Doesn't Like Holding White House Press Conferences

What was said in a press conference yesterday, is used in an ad today, to show that the president is either lying or does not know what his own campaign is doing and saying.

Stephanie Cutter did not accuse Mitt Romney of committing a felony on a lark. The campaign organized a teleconference with reporters to lobby that specific charge. Campaigns don’t set up teleconference by accident, and they don’t levy serious charges against opponents that haven’t been authorized by the candidate.

In this case, the Obama campaign based its accusations on flimsy, inaccurate and ill-informed reporting by Josh Marshall at TPM. The only question is where did that reporting originate, with Marshall or with the Obama campaign itself?
