The Obama camp's frustrations over recent events has never been more apparent than it was on Friday though Senator Barack Obama's wife, Michelle.
At a Durham, NC event, Michelle Obama made it clear that the heavy baggage of the Jeremiah Wright controversy combined with Hillary's continued presence in the race is weighing on her husband.
She said that her husband was sick of the battle against Clinton. "We were taught that you don't rip your opponents to pieces, you don't leave them on the roadside."
"We knew from the start of this race that we were taking on the most formidable machine in Democratic politics," said Obama's chief strategist David Axelrod. "It's in full display right now. She's tenacious and she can multiply her reach because her husband is working just as hard as either of the candidates."
"Barack has been characterized as many things that have nothing to do with who he is," she said. He is thinking "I can't let my ego, my anger, my frustration get in the way of the ultimate goal."
She also said that the only thing that was keeping her husband's emotions in check was his desire for "change" in politics.
