Back in campaign form

In a little bit of political judo in the Massachusetts special election for Senator, President Obama deftly wielded a symbol of Martha Coakley's opponent, Scott Brown, against him.

Obama said "anyone can buy a truck", and Brown has "parked his truck on Wall Street". He warned Bay Staters, "don't get in the truck" with Martha's opponent.

Brilliant.

The President did not, however, explicitly warn against accepting candy.
