MANCHESTER, New Hampshire (CNN) -- Sen. Barack Obama's spokesman on Saturday accused Sen. John McCain of "cynically running the sleaziest and least honorable campaign in modern presidential campaign history." Sen. Barack Obama blasts his rival, Sen. John McCain, at a rally in Manchester, New Hampshire, Saturday.
Obama, speaking to a crowd Saturday in Manchester, New Hampshire, said, "John McCain wants to have a debate about national security; let's have that debate. I warned that going into Iraq would distract us from Afghanistan. John McCain cheerleaded for it. John McCain was wrong, and I was right."
"The McCain-[Sarah] Palin ticket, they don't want to debate the Obama-Biden ticket on issues because they are running on eight more years of what we've just seen. And they know it," the Democratic presidential nominee said. "As a consequence, what they're going to spend the next seven, eight weeks doing is trying to distract you.
"They're going to talk about pigs, and they're going to talk about lipstick; they're going to talk about Paris Hilton, they're going to talk about Britney Spears. They will try to distort my record, and they will try to undermine your trust in what the Democrats intend to do."

That’s an ad McCain should run. Start with Obama’s soundbite here. Then issue a challenge to the townhalls. Repeat every week with “X weeks and we’re still waiting...”
Oh, I think 0 has gonads.
They just haven’t fallen yet.
Yeah, and they’re squealing too!!!!
Just as I predicted, Obama is inserting the word “lipstick” in his speeches every day.
Fellow freepers,
It is just a simple tactic called “projection”.
Blame your opponent for possessing the unflattering traits you yourself possess.
Preemptive and brilliant. Dirty but brilliant.
When I see photos of Mrs. Bush I am so proud, especially after having Mrs. Clinton as 1st lady.
I would certainly not be proud to call this hag 1st lady.

NO WAY!
Don’t want to debate? Right. And what about McCain’s town hall meetings offer to Nobama? These people are truly delusional.
“The McCain camp should not let attacks like this go unanswered. What is the tactic, repeat something often enough and people will accept it as truth.”
CBS was doing it last night. Katie Couric stated flat out that the campaigns had taken the high road until yesterday when McCain started lying and running negative ads. Yes, she really did...yesterday...totally ignoring 2 full weeks of attacking Palin.
Sounds like Obama is NOT ready for office, not experienced enough to face world leaders like Putin!
This from a campaign that rips on a disabled vet for not typing his own e-mail? Talk about the pot calling the salt (of the earth) black...

No sooner than the last of our forces wrap up things and head home (or to Afghanistan) the Rat Party (formerly the traditional, patriotic Democratic Party) will start in with "Afghanistan is lost, we were lied to about Afghanistan."
I remember Henry "Scoop" Jackson, Hubert Humphrey, Harry Truman -- I knew the Democratic Party. The Democratic Party was a friend of America. The Rat Party is no Democratic Party.

Ummm...wrong. Obama is the one who doesn’t want to and refused a dozen town hall meetings that McCain has offered for 3 months now.
