For the last 7 or so days the Obama campaign and the MSM have been attacking John McCain and Sarah Palin relentlessly, with Obama spouting out so many lies I can't keep track of them. When will Steve Schmidt and John McCain FINALLY say it's time to take the gloves off and hit Obama and Axelrod like they've never had it before? When, we're all waiting!!!
dont worry
they are going to hit him as a celeb again...focusing on the dinner last nite in hollywierd while he claims to be in touch with american families.
I’ve noticed that every time McCain hits back they call it silly back and forth exchanges. But when Obama attacks they report it with great zeal.
But he proved me wrong
He is lettting Obama hang himself.
Patience.... Patience.... the iron will soon be hot enough to strike!
One lefty columnist admitted the problem the left faces with Palin.
They insist that the culture war is a figment of the right’s imagination.
They don’t understand why we paint them as elitists.
But, since they are in that position, every condescending attack on Sarah just reinforces that view of them.
And they really can’t help themselves, they DO see themselves as superior, and can’t understand why everyone else doesn’t see that as well - “look at her! she’s a HICK! and why do you keep saying we’re elitists?!”
You’re right, but they also call McCain’s legitimate attacks on Obambi “lies,” which is what Baba Wawa called them last week on The View.
They need to put out ads hitting him as a celebrity again for his little fundraiser last night. They also need to hit him HARD on the economy. The little speech that JSM gave yesterday about Obama using the bank situation to attack him would make a great commercial as well.
Maybe they’re waiting for Obama to think he’s doing a bit better before they hit him again.
They should run another ad on the education thing, citing a website where the bill and Obama’s voting record can be found as proof.
Hammer the issue and don’t let them get away with saying things are ‘lies’ when they are not!
Yes. And tie it in with the $380 million his campaign has already spent -- a lot of it frivously.
At the start of the summer Obama looked like a sure winner and the McCain campaign appeared weak and uncertain. Today McCain is leading in most polls including state polls.
At the start of summer the GOP appeared to be is disarray and the base was at best lukewarm to McCain. Today the baseis solidly behind the McCain/Palin ticket, contributions have sky rocketed and enthusiasm for the ticket has yet to peak.
At the beginning of the summer the congressional and senate races looked hopeless and the dimrats were sure to add to their majorities. Today these races are becoming cometitive and there is a real possibility that the GOP may cut into those leftist majorities and some people are saying the GOP may even regain control of one or both houses of congress.
Schmidt is a great strategist, no question, it just makes me ill to watch and listen to Obama spout off one lie after another, and the MSM never calls him on it. I understand Mac and Sarah have been making the positive post convention rounds, but I think it’s high time to hit that SOB Obambi back now, and hit him hard. Oh yeah, and let’s not leave out Joe Biden and his blatant plagiarism. I hope Schmidt runs ads reminding voters of the lies and dishonesty that forced Biden out of the 1988 presidential race.
I’m hoping you’re right.
“They need to put out ads hitting him as a celebrity again for his little fundraiser last night. They also need to hit him HARD on the economy.”
I completely agree with this.
I agree with what you are saying, but it’s hard to stomach Obambi’s lies and not see the McCain campaign agressively counter them.
I think the campaign is doing okay. It’s not been the best of weeks because things settled down after the Palin announcement and the convention. And because Obama has been hitting back, along with his buds in the media.
McCain is talking issues now, which is a good thing. The debates are coming up. Plus, the sheeple are just now really starting to pay attention to the campaign, even though it’s been going on since 2004.
I’m not saying we don’t hit back. But I think we’re in pretty good shape. Barry’s spending money faster than he can raise it. And, for a change, people are actually giving to the RNC again.
Our job as “community organizers” should be to keep pointing out that the left and the media have gone freakin’ nutz over Palin and they are running scared.

Ad is an insult to McCain's injuries
Barack Obama started a new campaign commercial mocking John McCain for not using e-mail. Maybe Obama’s campaign should learn how to use a computer for basic research.
In 2000, the Boston Globe reported: “McCain gets emotional at the mention of military families needing food stamps or veterans lacking health care. The outrage comes from inside: McCain's severe war injuries prevent him from combing his hair, typing on a keyboard, or tying his shoes.”
Great move, Team Obama, making fun of a POW’s injuries. Is this that “change we can believe in” or just more indication of your lack of judgment.
Matthew Nehrling, Longview
We can never fight enough. The Leftist media can do a lot worse than they already have. We need to battle like we have never battled before. Forget all the October surprises lined up; forget a tie in Pennsylvania; forget a 5 point difference in New York. Forget about some asanine electoral spread on September 13th. These things happened in the past two weeks or less, and they can change in the next two days. The libs have now put Hair Plugs O-biden on the loose, the 527’s are about to kick in, and Palin may only be a brief bounce- not a convention bounce, but a two week bounce. Stop gloating. Get out there and expose the Obamist philosophy for what it is: collectivism, Marxism, anti-Americanism, pro-Ayers, pro-Salinsky, Stalinist. Fight like “300” against the hoards of the America-hating media and their volvo-driving automatons in the democratic party. FIGHT. FIGHT. FIGHT!!!! Take no comfort in a few polls in early September- The election is in November. The libs will mobilize as many dead and criminals as they need to win this. We MUST FIGHT THEM TOOTH AND NAIL TIL NOVEMBER 4TH AND LONGER IF NECESSARY!!!!
Good letter.
