10 IMMEDIATE GOALS FOR THE OBAMA CAMP
(unsolicited advice from me)

1. Remind people that McCain is scarier than any other outcome. His defense policies, rhetoric, and misunderstanding of key issues would place this country at extraordinary risk.

2. Remind people that McCain has no plans, other than what politically sounds good at the moment. We should hear a constant litany of what McCain believed in before he didn't.

3. Remind people how out of touch McCain is. 10 houses, a multi-million-dollar heiress, "$5 million dollars a year = rich." For God's sake, he MARRIED Paris Hilton.

4. Reveal McCain's votes on key issues in battleground states that crippled the economy there.

5. Question McCain's honesty. Cross-gate, Cone-of-Silence, Pittsburgh Steelers, denying his own statements.

6. The War in Iraq. The War in Iraq. Why should we believe John McCain when he says he'll find Osama bin Laden when McCain thought going to war in Iraq would help bring him down?

7. Lobbyists. Lobbyists. His campaign is full of 'em. Are John McCain's policies the result of him being lobbied by his own campaign staff?

8. The age factor. It wouldn't matter McCain is 72 if he'd had one good new idea in all that time.

9. Vets issues. Why does he hate our troops when it's time to cast a vote that would help them?

10. His voting record. Would he continue his long vacation from his duties as Senator once elected president?

1. Also he admits he doesn't understand how the economy works. So he
is vulnerable to any sort of charlatan in the GOP who tells him not to tax the rich. McCain has no inner gage on the economy. How can he possibly run the economy if this is the case?
