Barack Obama seems to have finally figured out that his "new kind of politics" is no sub for grimy, skeezy, old-fashion mudslinging. Sort of.

After weeks of cranking up the heat on the Clinton machine, Obama has now supplanted Hillary for high score status in several Iowa polls and has unveiled today a new website attacking Hillary Clinton for, what else, attacking Barack Obama. Obama campaign manager David Plouffe alerted supporters to the new site this morning and asked them "to be vigilant and notify us immediately of any attacks from Senator Clinton or her supporters as soon as you see them so that we can respond with the truth swiftly and forcefully."

Won't you be an Obama safety patrol?
