McCain seems to be pursuing a classic tortoise vs. hare strategy. Let the arrogant self-involved rabbit run out haphazardly in front and proclaim his premature victory, while the wiser turtle rests assured that slow and steady wins the race.
Familiarity with Obama breeds contempt. When he was but a wisp of a cipher he was more attractive; now that voters are getting to know the megalomaniac behind the hubris the halo's wearing off.
OT but not entirely: please allow me to share my latest photoshop of Obama at Berlin's Victory column, "Ich Bin Ein Beginner:"
I am hoping that for his speech in Germany there is a large turn out of anti-american protesters with their stupid signs AND THEY LOVE OBAMA!
Of course the media would try not to show it...
