Obama Camp: "Does John McCain Have a Woman Problem"
It's not exactly what you probably think, but I bet it did make you think. Pretty damn good.

http://www.jedreport.com/2008/08/john-mccain-has.html

McClatchy's election blog flags a deft move by the Obama campaign:

The Obama campaign just sent out an email with the compellng headline: "Does John McCain have a woman problem?"

Coming the day after John Edwards admitted an extramarital affair, the headline might be seen as suggesting the same for McCain. Edwards himself said in his confessional interview on ABC Friday evening that McCain had had an affair at the end of his first marriage.

But no, the Obama camp wasn't saying that. Instead, the enticing headline drew readers into a New Republic article on McCain's opposition to abortion rights. Thus, his "woman problem."

11. That's the brilliance of it
They did kind of go there. Just enough to make people wonder about McCain's personal woman's issues (because he does have them), then to read what camp Obama is really talking about, that there are substantive woman's issues that McCain has a problem with.

Obama is ruffling McCain's feathers in a big way, just like he did when he said that the naval aviator had "lost his bearings". I simply love the brilliance of camp Obama. :loveya:

4. Yeah, he does. McCain can't go near the Edwards situation.
He has to tell Murdoch and his empire to lay off, too, much as they want to make it the story du jour.

7. Why not use the very effective 'zipper problem' for McCain? We can impeach BEFORE he gets the chance
to be president. After all, as late as 1998 he believed having a zipper problem disqualifies a man from being in the WH, right?
