Throughout the summer months, many voters supporting John McCain have been frustrated by his failure to respond forcefully to Obamas charges against him. I felt his failure to swat about at each charge was because he was an old fighter pilot, taught to hold his fire and stay concealed as long as possible. If circumstances permitted, he would not budge until his opponent had made a potentially fatal move from which it was going to be exceedingly hard to extricate himself. Whether my assessment was right or not, it appears that the moment to strike has arrived, and like the old fighter pilot descending from the cloud cover, McCain has taken full advantage of Obamas errors to place him in a position from which I can see no way out for him.

Seems to be a habit with these people. Air America was financed in part with Boy’s Club money.
A lot of them will, yes.
Well, of course, hard core Dems will look the other way, but will indeppendents?
I hope the McCain camp will continue referencing the Annenberg Cover-Up and demand that the University of Illinois make the documents public and demand that the library release the name of the donor who is blocking their release.
McCain has the bully pulpit and needs to use it now more than ever. Unmask this evil man that will try his best to destroy our country as we know it.
Rezko finneled Alsammarae Iraqi oil for food money to Obama, a few months removed, Obama finneled Illinois taxpayer money to Rezko for sham rennovation projects for blacks ... finneling money back and forth seems to work for the Chicago way ... I like your new word btw.
Mark Halperin mentioned the Ayers Connection on a MTP panel this morning... and I swear I saw Donna Brazille shudder.
We need a PRINT ad of all the people who have endorsed Obama...from Ayers to Castro! Don’t forget Chavez! That would be devastating.
The University says it will make the docs available on Tuesday though my understanding is that some—i.e., the audits will not be made public.
Funneled + Finagled = finneled!
I’ll not get too hopeful. Learned over eight looooong years when hoping the myriad of scandals and untimely deaths associated with the Clintons always faded away in the sunset.
It’s a brilliant fusion don’tchaknow.
Thanks for creatively covering for me, but unfortunately it’s just a typo for funneled.
I imagine that nothing will stick,,, regardless of what it is...
Halperin is just about the only reporter at Time worth the name.
These Annenberg documents, if they haven't been scrubbed, will show that Ayers was Obama’s political mentor in Chicago and that they had a very close working relationship.
Secondly, I'd bet money that these lefty groups that Obama and Ayers funneled millions to also will turn out to have given considerable amounts of money to the Obama’s state political campaigns.
In other words, Obama and Ayers used Annenberg Challenge money to provide kickbacks to Obama’s political career.
It would be the Chicago thing to do.
It would not surprise me. BTW you do know that lots of govt money found it’s way to Rev. Wright’s church—in sums too high to account for the disclosed purpose.(That is IIRC fifty thousand or more per pre school pupil.))
I didn’t know that. Do you know if it was State of Illinois money, or Fed money?
$15 million in fed funds. http://74.125.95.104/search?q=cache:nIJGkgGmHT0J:elections.foxnews.com/2008/06/02/obamas-ex-church-has-won-15m-in-federal-grant-money/+Rev+Wright+federal+money&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=2&gl=us
Possibly some state and local, too, but a quick search just turned this up.
