    Will Kerry support McCain in the general?

    Got this (totally above the fray and not an attack piece) email from Mrs. Obama today:

    (Point of Order) --

    In the past week or two, another candidate's spouse has been getting an awful lot of attention.

    We knew getting into this race that Barack would be competing with Senator Clinton and President Clinton at the same time.

    We expected that Bill Clinton would tout his record from the nineties and talk about Hillary's role in his past success. That's a fair approach and a challenge we are prepared to face.

    What we didn't expect, at least not from our fellow Democrats, are the win-at-all-costs tactics we've seen recently. We didn't expect misleading accusations that willfully distort Barack's record.

    Barack Obama isn't relying on a former President of the United States to campaign for him.

    He's relying on us -- you, me, and hundreds of thousands of people like us who are giving whatever they can afford to support this movement.

    You have given generously to this campaign in the past, but we all need to stand up in the face of these new attacks.

    Barack's unwavering opposition to the war in Iraq, his outspoken support of women's rights, and his call for leadership that will transform our party and our country have all been mischaracterized in the past two weeks.

    We've seen disingenuous attacks and smear tactics turn people off from the political process for too long, and enough is enough.

    It's time for a change. It's time for a new kind of leadership and a new kind of politics in our party and in our country.

    And while Senator Clinton has a former president in her corner, I'll put my faith in a movement of a whole lot of people who are ready for change.

    South Carolina votes in 48 hours, and more than 20 states will make their voices heard in less than two weeks on February 5th. Now is the time for all of us to step up and take personal responsibility for making change happen.
