Constant attacks from the GOP, and we're trotting out their slogans from 8 years ago....
Yeah...um. Time to start your own constant wave of attacks. The first is painting Palin as an extremist. The Defenders of Wildlife video is a perfect tool for this use, and so is her speech to AIP, a group which wants Alaska to secede.

McCain is even endorsing ads that try to paint Obama as someone who wanted to teach sex ed to kids before they can read!

WAKE THE #$#$ UP OBAMA CAMPAIGN! Don't answer every attack ad while McCain and Palin are on the road preaching "change"! Make your own attack ads (And I mean outlandish ones, not the wimpy policy issue ads you have been handing out - get PERSONAL).

Geeze man. Come on already. Does the Obama camp really think they can go into this taking the high road? The GOP has their attack ad plan all laid out until November, and their batshit insane ads get FREE airtime because they are so ridiculous.
I mean, come on. Defenders of Wildlife has the best damn campaign ad I've seen so far, and it shows nothing except for Palin approved orders shooting mother wolves and bears from helicopters.

When your opponent for the president of the U.S. just acccused you of being a pedophile..... then ENDORSED the ad at the end?

Time to get real.

1. Free advice is worth the price you pay for it.

2. You must have awfully long arms
to reach the wheel from the back seat.

3. When I see the driver swerving into oncoming traffic, I tend to reach for the wheel.....

4. Yeah
One of the bigger mistakes the Democratic presidential candidates have made in recent elections is ending up on defense and allowing the Repugs to define them. We've seen it play out several times, where the Repugs go nasty and end up winning the election (or making it close enough to steal...). Voters may claim that they would prefer a candidate to try to stay above the fray, but they don't seem to end up voting for the ones who do.
