I wish Obama would take the high road instead of following them into the gutter. I guess his advisors are telling him to fight back in kind.
To his defense, Obama hasn't really attacked McCain as hard as he could. However, he's in a weird predicament. When the Bush campaign started smearing Kerry, he wanted to take the high road and he waited too long to attack back which gave him a big hit in the polls.. so the Obama camp is trying to walk a fine line with this one.

This election however, I don't think a smear campaign will work when there are so many undecideds, and it's been proven time and time again that undecideds do not like smear campaigns; they are interested in the issues. If Obama performs well in the second debate.. he should remain steady in the polls and you'll see even more smear from the McCain camp.. and I feel if he throws more mud on the wall.. less of it will stick and he'll be doomed. People are generally getting tired of this shit.

I have to agree.. I saw something the other day where John Voight was talking about how enthusiastic and excited he was about Palin and McCain and couldn't wait to introduce California to her. He just looked like the old drunk crazy actor.
