This will backfire on the repukes...

This new third-party ad, whose sponsors said it began airing in Ohio tonight, goes after Obama on what Mark Penn once told the Clintons would be a devastating political issue: Obama's support for states' right to issue drivers licenses to illegal immigrants.

The issue has scarcely surfaced as Obama faced the relatively pro-immigrant McCain and tussled over Hispanic voters, but the National Republican Trust PAC is airing it in the most cutting, over-the-top, way available: It accuses Obama of supporting the policies that issued drivers licenses to the 9/11 terrorists.

3. McCain still hasn't gotten the memo - it's the economy stupid

Spend all your time and what little money you have left attacking Obama and talking about terrorists. This isn't 2002, 2004, or even 2006 - the terrorism bullshit doesn't fly anymore you've run it into the ground where its lost all of its meaning to everyone outside of your rabid base. People are worried about real issues - issues that effect them personally and make their future look very uncertain.

I'm not dismissing terrorism outright - but with a respectable President and a sensible foreign policy, we can curb terrorism before it has the chance to grow.
