Essentially, yes.
Huh? No need to end a controversy before it starts.
As Polarik's post here (and posts by others elsewhere) amply prove, down at the blog level, controversies never end. They just keep getting recycled.
That's Back@ss thinking.
I disagree.
As I said, at the blog level, controversies never end. And as long as they stay down at the blog level, no one else to speak of knows anything about them, so in the larger scheme of things, they're not a problem for the campaign.
However if the campaign did anything to address these blog level controversies, in doing so, they couldn't help but to draw wider attention to them. And why would they want to do that? That would indeed be some "back@ss" thinking.
So no, from a campaign standpoint, the prudent thing to do would be to ignore the blog level stuff, and only shoot at the odd one or two that might rise up from the underbrush, as happened with Corsi's claims on Fox News.

No, that's not the honest thing to do. It's disingenuous and deceptive, and at the worst, it may cover up for wrongdoing, but I should expect that behavior from your side.
An honest person would let reporter pools inspect the document(s) in question, and not use biased websites like Annenberg.org "FactCheck" and the DailyKos.
At the blog level is where the rest of the world gets to read the truth that the MSM refuses to carry. It is not that the controversies are "not worthy" of their time -- it's that anything that tarnishes the image of their Love Child, Obama, they are prone to ignore
Plus, it's the little lies that coalesce and turn into big, fat lies at the world level.
What? Did you think that the MSM has been reporting the truth about Gaza, as opposed to what their Hamas handlers have been feeding them?
Yes, there are bigger issues than a bogus birth certificate image, but it sure is funny how apoplectic the OBamanites get when they realize it's not going away.
It's rather funny to hear things like, "Oh, that stuff is just artifacts from scanning," when no one, in the entire world, in the past two months, HAS EVER posted an example of one that matches the patterns on the Kos forgery.
And they have the gall to say that "Either I'm lying, or that my 320 images does not represent ALL of the possible images that could be made."
I mean, how wacked is that? Whereas I have 320 images that demonstrate why they cannot be "Scanner artifacts."
