WASHINGTON, Oct. 15 (UPI) -- A staffer in the presidential campaign of Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., accidentally distributed a "staff only" memo to media outlets.
The e-mail, which covered topics ranging from Wednesday night's debate with Republican rival Sen. John McCain of Arizona, to Obama's economic policies, begins with a warning: "Reminder: These are for staff only and not for distribution," ABC News reported.
"Just this weekend, ... John McCain vowed to 'whip Obama's you-know-what' at the debate, and he's indicated that he'll be bringing up Bill Ayers to try to distract voters," the memo reads. "So we know that Senator McCain will come ready to attack Barack Obama and bring his dishonorable campaign tactics to the debate stage."
The memo also says Obama "is introducing a comprehensive four-part Rescue Plan for the Middle Class -- to immediately to stabilize our financial system, provide relief to families and communities, and help struggling homeowners."
The e-mail concludes with criticism of McCain's response to the economic crisis.
"John McCain has been erratic and unsteady since this crisis began -- staggering from position to position and trying to change the subject away from the economy by launching false character attacks," it reads.
