It's going to be ok, Obama's already beaten the "kitchen sink strategy" once this year
I wonder if McSame was napping earlier this Spring when Obama rose above name calling and dirty attacks to victory. This is not a dig against Hillary, but an illustration that Obama represents the "New Politics". Politics powered by people donating in record numbers, with the average donor chiping in just over a hundred bucks. He runs and WINS on the positive ideas of hope and change and not on name calling and mud slinging. McSame is going to be the next casualty in this futile attempt to play "dirty pool" against the champion. Why doesnt he ask Alan Keyes what it's like to run against Obama (and lose), whom by the way is running on the Independent ticket. :rofl:

-just a thought

1. Hillary came off badly when she tried it, and McCain will too.
"Desperate and nasty" are not qualities people look for in their nominee, nor in their president.

2. Yes, and while Hillary did her brand no good by doing it,
she actually helped train Obama for the here and now. He's grown tremendously as a candidate since the beginning of the year. For all that you here from a few that Hillary should have stepped aside after Iowa, Obama wouldn't have had the experience (or his team either) with a cake walk to the nomination.
