There does come a point where people become angry by your ads, not energized by them to vote for you.

With this kind of ad blitz, Obama may actually hurt himself.

I sure hope so. We need everything we can to win.

What we need is a focused John McCain that can make a clear and simple case that Obama = bad for the economy.

He's got two weeks left, and he got way too wrapped up in the Ayers/Wright stuff and he wasted a lot of time - the people who care about Ayers/Wright would have decided to vote for McCain long before now. He's got to make this all about the economy, because that's what is going to be most important to the undecideds and independents and moderates at this point.

He has to keep it clear and simple so that the message gets out - anything too wordy or complex and the media will ignore it. They like their soundbites in 30-second and 60-second soundbites.

Palin - at this point she needs to tone down her attacks and just fund-raise and work on conservatives, because every time she overshadows him, his economic message will get lost.

He's got to stop playing like he's in the first or second quarter and start working on the 2-minute drill. Clinton won by beating Bush over the head with the economy and if McCain loses sight of that, he loses the election.
