Hang 'em out to dry! Don't let 'em anywhere near the candidate, lest the dirt rub off on his cleaner-than-clean character. (Did I say the "c" word? Sorry, that should be "reputation.") Does the name Jack Abramoff mean anything except to political junkies?
Ok, I'll admit that I'm getting right fed up with all the guilt-by-association smears that have been leveled in this presidential campaign. It's a low tactic, and normally one reserved for the last inning before the election--a desperation play, when you're six points behind and have the ball on your own 18 yard line with 6 seconds on the clock. Hail Mary!
Who works for a candidates election is incidental to the bigger concern many of us have with all the major candidates this time around. As much as they try to distance themselves from Bush, they promise more of the same, sailing the ship of state on essentially the same dangerous course, only with a different crew. And their combined diplomatic experience is roughly equal to that of G. W. Bush's when he was governor of Texas, minus his executive functions (and Texans have always shied away from giving their governors much to do in that realm). We'll be in for a rough four years if any of the three gets elected president.
As for your stophimnow.org suggestion, it's a good idea but with a name like that the site could as well be to stop Obama, or to stop Rev. Baldwin, or to stop former congressman Barr. It's a little ambiguous.
Here's a site that's done what you're looking for, using McCainiac's own words to show the world just what a two-faced prevaricator this nominal Republican nominee really is.
Notice, too, that like all seasoned politicians, he never has to apologize for his slip-ups, goof-ups and out-and-out misstatements.
I agree that this guilt-by-association gets overdone. The MSM find it easier to play “gotcha” than to analyze serious issues.
BUT — this is nothing new. It should’ve been expected that this would happen, and these guys with conflicts should never have been put in positions where they’d expose the Republican frontrunner to the “gotcha” game in the first place.
I agree with Enchante. This is amateur hour.
