Obama In 2007: You Can't Be Against Outside Groups And Then For Them
While running as a candidate, Obama railed against 527's and said that someone can't be against them one day and for them the next. (December 22, 2007)
Earlier this week the Obama campaign announced that the President will embrace the Super PAC Priorities USA that will be backing him.
In a 2007 campaign stop in Iowa then-Senator Obama railed against outside groups and their influence in an election. In this clip he talks about John Edwards and a group supporting him that is "getting around campaign finance laws."
"You can't say yesterday you don't believe in them and today you have three-quarters of a million dollars being spent for you," Obama said.

Obama to Break Promise, Opt Out of Public Financing for General Election
In a web video to supporters — "the people who built this movement from the bottom up" — Sen. Barack Obama, D-Illinois, announced this morning that he will not enter into the public financing system, despite a previous pledge to do so.

"We’ve made the decision not to participate in the public financing
system for the general election," Obama says in the video, blaming it on
the need to combat Republicans, saying "we face opponents who’ve become
masters at gaming this broken system. John McCain’s campaign and the
Republican National Committee are fueled by contributions from
Washington lobbyists and special interest PACs. And we’ve already seen
that he’s not going to stop the smears and attacks from his allies
running so-called 527 groups, who will spend millions and millions of
dollars in unlimited donations."
