Clinton tells Obama: 'Shame on you'; Obama fires back

CNN) -- A visibly angry Sen. Hillary Clinton lashed out Saturday
at Sen. Barack Obama over campaign literature
that she said he knows is "blatantly false," while Obama
called her outburst "tactical."

Clinton jabbed the air with her hands as she told a crowd in
Cincinnati, Ohio, that two Obama mailings spread lies about her
positions on universal health care and the North American
Free Trade Agreement.

"Shame on you, Barack Obama," she said.

Polls show Clinton and Obama are in statistical dead heats in
delegate-rich Ohio and Texas, which both hold votes March 4.

With Ohio Gov. Ted Strickland nodding in agreement behind her,
Clinton accused Obama of emulating the tactics of Karl Rove, President Bush's former political director
who is reviled by Democrats.

Obama "is continuing to send false and discredited mailings with
information that is not true to the voters of Ohio," Clinton said.

One mailing says her health care proposal would force everyone to
buy health insurance, regardless of ability to pay, a charge Clinton
vehemently denied.

"Sen. Obama knows it is not true that my plan forces people to buy
insurance even if they can't afford it," she said.
The NAFTA mailer says Clinton was a "champion" for
NAFTA while first lady, but now opposes it.

NAFTA was negotiated by the first President Bush and
signed into law by President Bill Clinton.

"I am fighting to change NAFTA,"
Hillary Clinton said Saturday.

"Enough with the speeches and the big rallies
and then using tactics right out of Karl Rove's playbook.

This is wrong, and every Democrat should be outraged,"
she said.

Obama denied Clinton's assertions that the literature was false.

"There's nothing in that mailing that is inaccurate," he said,
adding that he was puzzled by the sudden scrutiny since
the mailers had been around for days, if not weeks.

"We have been subject to constant attack from the Clinton campaign,
except for when we were down 20 points. And that was true in Iowa.
It was true in South Carolina.

It was true in Wisconsin, and it is true now," Obama said.

He described Clinton's anger as "tactical" and defended his
campaign.

"The notion that somehow we're engaging in nefarious tactics
I think is pretty hard to swallow."

Clinton challenged Obama to "meet me in Ohio, and let's have a debate about your tactics and your behavior in this campaign."

The two are scheduled to meet for a debate next week in Cleveland,
Ohio.
