Well yes and no. McCain never sold himself as some type of "new" politics. You sort of expected attack campaigning out of McCain, as well as Hillary and so forth.
Obama portrays himself as a unifier, but is doing exactly what McCain and Hillary has done - attack.
I agree the Republicans have attacked Obama more so than Obama has attacked McCain, but it works doesn't it? Look at the latest Zogby polls or Rasmussen polls. Obama has lost a lot of ground since the McCain campaign started attacking Obama in full force.
