[DearAbby]

will be seen as part two of the "B" Girl Strategy.....she single handedly blotched McCain's campaign strategy. discuss

1. Yep. I think little Ashley has effectively killed that potential attack. n/t

[fascisthunter]

2. it seems as if DUers bring up that name more

than the MSM does...

[DearAbby]

6. Its a valid topic....

made political because of Drudge and the pudge Media, who followed his lead.

[NOLALady]

9. I see you've also noticed the concern.

[emilyg]

10. It will be old news tomorrow.

3. IMO, everything that mcPOW has tried the past 3 weeks has reeked

of desperation. Now, B-girl has magnified it. If the go Wright, Obama will win with 400 EVs.

5. I hope you are right.

4. It'll be a hard act to follow.

But it's not like they're a campaign that makes good decisions.

7. Rev. Wright was a marine and he has an oustanding record of military service.

just sayin.

8. Wright is old news. AIP on the other hand....

[DearAbby]

11. Well with this media,

forgive me if I don't hold my breath. This story had all the earmarks of a new Natalie Halloway story, but with a live warm blooded "murican" girl. And with exaggerated bits and pieces with each telling, it had sex, violence, and racism...and POLITICAL to boot.

Grandpappy McCain calling to comfort the frightened victim, Palin calling offer support...Oh yes, this story would have dominated until the election...Thank god for the internet, and good detective work by the police officers.

12. Some rightists were fretting it would gum up the Wright effort.

I personally think it's rather stale at this point, but there will be overwhelming pressure on McCain to "stick to the issues," meaning economy, etc. This girl unwittingly helped defuse the problem.

[FrenchieCat]

13. I'm kind of tired of seeing Wright's name on this forum so much.....

It's kind of like, maybe we are the ones pushing him to come back to the forefront.

just saying. :shrug:

[stillcool]

14. and the media..

you ever notice how they ask if McCain is going to bring up Reverend Wright, effectively bringing up Reverend Wright?
