The gloves need to come off...
Edited on Mon Sep-08-08 02:05 PM by TwoSparkles
I just heard on MSNBC (sorry, no link) that McCain just criticized
Obama for securing a lot of money for his home state of Illinois,
during his time in the Senate.

Obviously, McCain's handlers realized that Palin's earmarks were
going to be a problem. Those earmarks demonstrate she's just more
of the same, and hardly a change agent.

So, what did the McCain camp do? They attacked Obama on the earmark
issue to diffuse any attack Obama would make on the earmarks that Palin
took. Now, Obama will look like he's on the defensive.

McPalin is going to continue to play dirty, and I hope that our side
has the gloves off, and keeps them off until Nov 4.

1. This campaign bears all the EARMARKS of KKKarl Rove
Attack your opponent on his STRENGTH (the fact he
DIDN'T request earmarks). I can only hope that
Obama/Biden can find a way to strike back on this
issue because it's a big one, one that she's been
shamelessly lying about non-stop since she was
picked for VP.
