Claire McCaskill in Warrensburg on October 28, 2008

…WALLACE: Senator Lieberman, is all that fair game, an attack on Barack Obama’s character?
SEN. JOE LIEBERMAN, D-CONN.: Well, it is fair game, and I want to get back to that in a minute….
….WALLACE: Senator McCaskill, is that where this campaign is headed, personal attacks on both sides?
SEN. CLAIRE MCCASKILL, D-MO.: Well, first of all, I think — let’s talk first about what Sarah Palin said yesterday. I mean, really, how ridiculous. American people deserve so much better.

The Senate committee chairmanship of Homeland Security? Say it ain’t so, Joe. The American people deserve so much better.
