"THE ONE!" seems to be getting VERY, VERY desperate now, for some reason...

If he has the kind of lead that 9-13% Dem bias polling says he has, why is he suddenly pulling out all the stops to go negative??

What is it about tying him to Rezko that he fears so much? Is there some "there" there?

Because he's insecure, inexperienced, and has never faced a general election that was anything less than a cakewalk.

Obama is very erratic in a crisis

Obama can try to dredge up ancient history about McCain, but he’ll never be able to deny that his relationship with Ayers or Rezco is recent history.

Palin has to continue hitting Obama on this. Obama does not seem able to handle being criticized by her. If I had to guess, I’d say he doesn’t respect women as his equals in this profession and, in general, he hates whites, especially those he views as vastly inferior (ie “rednecks”) to him. Having Palin attack him is, in reality, baiting him. The one thing the McCain campaign would love is for him being forced to address the Ayers relationship personally. Because if he talks about it, then the media is forced to cover it, which ultimately gives it more coverage and then, perhaps (finally) some enterprising reporter in the MSM will put two and two together.

Right now his campaign is doing the absolute last thing they should be doing tactically to address this issue. They should be laughing it off and talking about whatever handout they want to promise this week. Instead they are wigging out about it. That tells you there is more there. So Palin will hit him more until the smoke cloud is big enough that Obama will be forced to respond in person.

And this is the guy Americans want facing down Putin?

YES! YES! YES! I LOVE IT!!! This allows McCain to join Palin in an all-out vetting of Obama without being branded as the only one that's "going negative".

Let the electorate know about each and every terrorist tie, money scandal, radical society, racist pal & shady deal that 0bomber has ever had. Don't hold back on any of the truth!

What’s the matter Barry? I thought you were going to play nice in the sandbox. McCain and Palin can not quit. They need to finish this. Who the hell ever said politics was warm and fuzzy?

McCain is an idiot. He waited too long, and now Obama’s negative barrage will drown out McCain’s Ayers/Rezko attacks.

Sarah Palin is like our fullback. She opened up a hole. Now McCain has to run through it.
