COLUMBUS, Ohio — Barack Obama on Friday defended his character against mounting attacks from John McCain, daring his Republican opponent to run as negatively as he wants in the final weeks of the race while predicting that, in light of the financial crisis, "it will not work."
Both candidates responded to the stock market meltdown with new policy proposals. McCain, in Wisconsin, suggested waiving a tax rule requiring that investors begin selling off their IRAs and 401(k)s when they turn 70-and-a-half. Obama, in Ohio, pitched temporarily lifting lending fees and extending fixed-rate loans to small businesses through a Small Business Administration disaster relief fund.
But the dramatic personal nature of the campaign overshadowed those developments.

In other words, it’s working.
Keep it up Senator McCain!!
Obama is a complete fraud who has no idea how to lead anything other than his massive ego.
TRANSLATION: If you keep talking about my damning character issues you’ll win and I’ll lose so talk about “my winning issue”.
What character? This guy’s morals have been short circuited more often than my toiled has been flushed.
Obama: “Nanner nanner nanner! I get to hide behind the financial crisis and yoooo can’t git meeeee! Ha-ha.”
Step it up John! Obama is an American hating POS.
He is hoping this inoculates him from future news coming up on his character or lack of. Won't work....the chickens are coming home to roost!!!!!!!!!!
Obama has character? Where?
Dude’s a narcissist. But it’s not his character that’s in question, it’s his politics.
Thanks for permission, Obama, I think I will.
Isn't that kind of thinking what got us in trouble in the first place???
The One is a black nationalist and a racist! He says as much in his book, that he is a black nationalist.
He hasn’t been rehabilitated.
ATTACK? Just point out the truth and unexplainable silences. That’s not attacking. Poor baby can’t take this how does he expect to be President.
“Obama has character? Where?”
I don’t know. He’s thrown all his former friends and supporters under the bus, when they’re no longer useful to him.
Character? What character?
Must be working or he’d be laughing. Now they are defaming Mac and Sarah’s SUPPORTERS, that would bet those of us who show up in numbers at their rallys and dare, dare I say to be mad. To them, we are drooling blood shot eyes ready to riot. And this, after that bald maggott MM married warns us that the blacks will riot if we don’t vote in their little squirrel rat.
“....daring his Republican opponent to run as negatively as he wants in the final weeks of the race while predicting that, in light of the financial crisis, “it will not work.”
Well, isn’t it nice of him to give his approval to run “negative” (truthful) news of him in the final weeks. Well, McCain....take that dare and raise him one! FIRE AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OH...and remind him when the bombs are coming his way....that he ASKED for it!!!!!!!!!!
