I wouldn't be surprised if the GOP had not only fanned but even started the silly tale about Sarah Palin and her daugther.
The person who created the hoax at the Daily Kos, Arc XIX, had just three posts to his or her name, and the last one before this weekend's final two was in 2005. Reading the posts it is easy to surmise this was a well-planned hoax.
And yes, the fact Obama was late in the condemnation actually made him look worse and, as Cannon notes, he only referred to children being off-limits to smears.
It is okay to smear adults, of course. He is the absolute master at that.
No matter the origin of the rumors, the onus is on Obama.
