The Obama campaign is not amused. “The New Yorker may think, as one of their staff explained to us, that their cover is a satirical lampoon of the caricature Sen. Obama’s right-wing critics have tried to create,” said Obama campaign spokesman Bill Burton. “But most readers will see it as tasteless and offensive. And we agree.” McCain spokesman Tucker Bounds concurred: “We completely agree with the Obama campaign, it’s tasteless and offensive.”
