Now that Obama has shown his mettle, or lack of same, it’s time to re-emphasize that fact as so beautifully expressed by our next VPOTUS at the GOP convention.
McCain is running a brilliant campaign 10 points ahead of his party, with a president as unpopular as outgoing war presidents in 1952 and 1968, against an opponent who has all the major media in the tank for him, with a unprecedented vicious character assassination attack on his vice-president, but it’s like sports, you have to win on the field. He had to neutralize the adulation of Obama in Europe and the celebrity campaign did that, the adulation at Obama’s coronation, and pulling Palin out of the hat did that. Any other candidate would be down 50-0 by now. If he gets half a break going his way and regains the momentum, maybe not a landslide, but he should be able to get the upper hand and that will be the ball game since Obama won’t know how to come from behind. But he still got a long way to go to turn this thing around.
