"THE ONE!" seems to be getting VERY, VERY desperate now, for some reason...

If he has the kind of lead that 9-13% Dem bias polling says he has, why is he suddenly pulling out all the stops to go negative??

What is it about tying him to Rezko that he fears so much? Is there some "there" there?

Wasn’t Senator McCain exonerated in the Keating 5 case? WTF is the Obama Team doing? Oh, that’s right, they are masters of pulling stuff outta their @$$...

So Obama decides to hit McCain with a discredited story to counteract McCain/ Palin truthfully pointing out his association with a domestic terrorist.

Good one Barry, ya poof!

My, who’s defensive now?

The result of McCain’s involvement was that he was cleared of any wrongdoing. I think most people could care less as opposed to being associated and involved with a known anti-American terrorist.

The Obama campaign knows Ayers can sink them. They’re just flailing about now.

This is Obama deflecting Palin’s Ayers attack. And the MSM will run with it, giving us three weeks of dredged up “Keating Five” stories, how banks failed, and forget to mention that McCain was exonerated.

Is McCain still scared of being called racist?

I take it that this is the “big gun” the 0bama camp had warned us about. Like McCain/Palin didn’t see this one coming. We’ll have to wait and see how nervous 0bama will be during the debate.

Three Dems. Glenn was also found not guilty. Although Glenn later sold his soul to the Devil for one more ride into space during the Clinton Impeachment.

Because the polls lie — we know it and he knows it. His lead is not even close to that if there is a lead.

No one comfortably in front is going to go back to the early 90’s and bring out Keating 5 which will give Sen McCain a chance to bring out where his passion for slalshing pork from the budget started.

McCain is in Obama’s head and that of his campaign. Gotta love it. Since Obama went back to the early 90’s then I am sure he won’t mind Republicans bringing up when he first hooked up with Ayers, Acorn, and the like in the late 80’s!

As for Rezko, sounds like he is trying to cut a deal with the US Attorneys and yes I believe it could cause major problems for Obama.

I don’t know where these “wars” of associations will end up. Most Americans are too dumb to know the details and will believe anything the MSM says. And, we know that the MSM is in the tank for this jerk.

I agree. Will McCain’s camp let up? I hope not, because this is really scaring Obama’s camp, and you know why? ‘Cause it’s the truth. Obama does share radical beliefs, and he does believe in that Christian black liberation “religious” crap.

“The Obama campaign knows Ayers can sink them.”

I’m beginning to think there is more to it than that, or he wouldn’t be reacting this way. He could just deny it, and stay above the fray if he actcually has the big lead that Media polling is telling us he does.

My gut tells me something is about to break in the Rezko case that implicates Obama personally...

The main reason McCain got sucked into it was that the other four were Democrats and it was embarassing to them.
