With a week to go until the Texas and Ohio primaries, stressed Clinton staffers circulated a photo over the weekend of a "dressed" Barack Obama.

The photo, taken in 2006, shows the Democrat frontrunner fitted as a Somali Elder, during his visit to Wajir, a rural area in northeastern Kenya.

The senator was on a five-country tour of Africa.

"Wouldn't we be seeing this on the cover of every magazine if it were HRC?" questioned one campaign staffer, in an email obtained by the DRUDGE REPORT.

In December, the campaign asked one of its volunteer county coordinators in Iowa to step down after the person forwarded an e-mail falsely stating that Barack Obama is a Muslim.

Hey! Look! Someone who might actually be considered a potential agent for peace with these militants that are costing the US billions of bucks and thousands of lives.

Better him in Muslim garb than Hillary in her 3rd Reich helmet.

Better him in Muslim garb than Hillary in her 3rd Reich helmet.WHEN I saw this on the drudge report.. the only thing that came to mind is that her campaign is so desperate... I think her campaign is now off the deep end and just throwing it all in the wind.. I cannot wait for March 4, 2008 to come...

Obama Campaign Response..

“On the very day that Senator Clinton is giving a speech about restoring respect for America in the world, her campaign has engaged in the most shameful, offensive fear-mongering we’ve seen from either party in this election. This is part of a disturbing pattern that led her county chairs to resign in Iowa, her campaign chairman to resign in New Hampshire, and it’s exactly the kind of divisive politics that turns away Americans of all parties and diminishes respect for America in the world," said Obama campaign manager David Plouffe in an e-mail sent to RAW STORY and other news outlets Monday morning.

Three Obama foreign policy advisers participated in a conference call with reporters Monday in advance of an anticipated Clinton speech outlining her foreign policy goals. All criticized her campaign for distributing the photo.

"It is unfortunate ... that her campaign would be involved in putting out a photograph that is in its very nature designed to be divisive," said Susan Rice, an Obama adviser and fellow at the Brookings Institution.

The advisers -- Rice, Gen. Jonathon “Scott” Gration and Richard Danzig -- noted that in the photo Obama is simply accepting a gift from one of his hosts, and he tried it on just like any politician visiting a foreign country would.

"He was someone who accepted a gift of friendship in a way that we should expect our president to," Gration said
