The economy V Mud at tomorrow's debate

Obama will focus on the issues, mccain will go all Mavratic (maverick+erratic) and throw mud.

I don't think mccain's latest load of mud is going to fly much tomorrow night. All Obama has to say is "Still fighting the old wars, john? Like all americans, I am more concerned with the economy today and what we are going to do about it" - then launch into his plans

when mccain continues with the attack line (and you know he will) - Obama should respond with "Why are you trying to distract from the real issues that people are concerned about? Don't you have anything positive to say about your own proposals?"

your thoughts?

1. I don't think you'll see that in the debate. Too many people watch

and if you remember, in almost all previous elections, and especially the debates, it's never the Principle who thrown the mud. It's always the VP, surrogates, or 527's.

3. John McCain et al should watch where they throw their mud..

Faithful reader, how many of you under 30 (it’s not fair if we let the older people play, sorry..lol) have ever heard about The Keating Five? Hint..they was linked to the collapse of one major savings and loan- Lincoln Savings and Loan Association.

Ok..nobody, nobody at all? Well, that’s not surprising..when the US savings and loan crisis was taking place I was still playing with barbie dolls and listening to Milli Vanilli ( you were too so don’t laugh didn’t you just love the braids..lol).

Ok, so you don’t know about it learn more here and below
