RCP Video ^ | 7-25-012 | Axelrod

....

David Axelrod: ... that's because the Romney campaign and their friends in the Super PAC world have just spent tens and tens of millions of dollars specifically on spots accusing Obama of running a negative campaign. So, I'm not surprised to see those numbers, generally.

[laughter]

Scarborough: So, it's not you're negative ads, it's their negative ads accusing you of being negative that is causing --

Axelrod: I think that had an impact on the numbers.

Obama can’t run anything BUT a negative campaign. He has done nothing positive to run on ... unless you consider championing homosexuals in the military, adding 4 trillion to the national debt or dismantling whole sectors of the American economy to be positives.

Looks as if the nut has come loose and the wheel is about to fall off for Axelrod.

There is an incredible amount of projection and pot-kettle-black type allegations from Obama camp.

Alinsykite rule - accuse the other side of doing what you are doing. Communists were famous for this, accussing the west of supressing human rights or bad economy or whatever.

Axelrod and Obama do the same thing.

People Think Obama’s Running A Negative Campaign Because He IS Running A negative Campaign!!! Besides....HE can’t RUN ON HIS RECORD (OR lack OF ONE!!)because if people evaluate his record he’d get walked out of the White Hoouse before the election!

Isn’t the Obama campaign being negative by accusing Romney of being negative by accusing Obama of being negative? I thought so.

I think so...

Obama doesn’t run any negative ads.

They call them “contrast” ads.
