49. So what?

Edited on Sun Aug-24-08 10:02 PM by backscatter712

Take a page from the GOP playbook. Some surrogate makes some sort of below-the-belt hit. The candidate then makes a prepared statement saying that was uncalled for. Everybody yawns. The surrogates then hit below the belt again. Lather, rinse, repeat. Keep the justifications ready - the keys represent McCain's 7, or 8, or 10 houses, or they represent all the foreclosed homes. Go back to triggering McCain's PTSD. It's a basic dogwhistle attack.

Just make sure Obama has a statement mentioning that McCain's a war hero, and we should respect his service. Then go back to jangling keys.

Don't be afraid to fight dirty, folks. You want to win this or what?
