Newark, N.J., Mayor Cory Booker, the Democrat who defended Bain Capital from the Obama campaign’s attacks yesterday morning, has been backpedaling more furiously than a clown on a high wire. Tonight, in an effort to mollify his critics on the Left, he posted four tweets that included the hashtag #IStandWithObama:
Let me be clear, #IStandWithObama

We guess he didn’t appreciate #IStandWithCory.
Conservatives immediately took over the #IStandWithObama hashtag to mock President Obama, and within an hour it became a trending topic.
