Unusual for Barone to write such a partisan type article. Usually he sticks to facts and figures.

We know McCain is wrong about our not having to fear an obama presidency. Is he blind to reality too, like so many Americans are? This is an issue he should be hammering. That Missouri incident was the worst. Sadly though I wonder, even if he brought this up face to face at the debate, would it get much traction? I really think most Americans refuse to believe our freedoms could be curtailed in this way. A lot would think it is just scare mongering, and the “news” media would confirm their feelings.

You're right, I fear he just doesn't have the smoothness needed to bring this up in debate without it being seen as a "negative attack" (what is a "positive attack"? like a hate crime?).

But obama is such a dolt, I think if McCain brings this stuff up in context, Obama will just start babbling. He didn't WIN these debates, he just let McCain look scary. Obama gets flustered pretty easily. I think peppering him with these realities is all McCain can do.

I really like Barone. He seems to me to be intelligent and honest.

Many don't know freedom is being lost. They are brainwashed and don't have enough sense to see it. Uncle Sam (Uncle Obama) will take care of me. Freedom comes in with a roar. Slavery comes in with a whimper.

I read this earlier and had the same thought.

Perhaps Mr. Barone has “seen the future”.

And perhaps he is as concerned as WE are....

I think Michael Barone is one of those "Country First" guys.
