Barack Obama's allies warn that John McCain's attacks on the Democrat'a character will lead to the political equivalent of mutual assured destruction: fire your big weapon at your own peril.

Several Obama surrogates said his supporters may start reminding voters of McCain's ties to Charles Keating, a convicted savings and loan owner whose actions two decades ago triggered a Senate ethics investigation that involved McCain as one of the "Keating Five."

The warnings of massive retaliation came as McCain's running mate, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, took on the role of attacker and said that Obama sees America as so imperfect "that he's palling around with terrorists who would target their own country." She was referring to an early Obama supporter, 1960s radical Bill Ayers, a founder of the Weather Underground whose members were blamed for several bombings when Obama was a child.

Then why haven’t they already brought up the Keating 5 if it’s so damaging? Because it’s not going anywhere. McCain was cleared and can prove it.

Wimps.

Obama is a communist. The American people aren't going to elect a communist. The left went insane out of sheer hatred and delusional chutzpa, and they are going crash and burn. Again. And gosh, it is going to be glorious.

Exactly. What is Obama going to do to McCain that he hasn’t already done and tried to do. Seriously, Obama’s whining because this is effective.
