Is this the action of a candidate who believes he’s comfortably ahead???

Not by a mile...

FDR-style speech coming?

More likely, a lecture on white racism...

Just what we need a half hour Obama campaign ad. Let him spend the money.

Can’t wait dfor the part where he complains about all the “smears” without addressing the facts.

Not if it’s an advertisement he pays for...what can’t happen is is the involvement of CBS employees and journalists...

He’s got foreign money to burn.

No it isn't. Barry hasn't been acting at all like a man who's comfortably ahead.

He is acting like a guy with unlimited amount of funding, however.

I think Obama feels McCain coming on. Obama should be ahead by 20 pts. but isn’t and has lost the initial bounce from the economic downturn. Better news for McCain day after day so they’re trying to blunt it.

DESPERATION. I suspect the campaigns internals have tanked in light of McCain and Sarah hammering him for being a terrorist sympathizer. This is only good news folks.

When I was a little boy I was scared of Satan, the anti-Christ and the False Prophet.

Reassuring, now I am a man, that those were Christian myths...

Uh, per election laws, doesn’t McCain also get equal time?

Nope. This is 'bought' time, just like commercials.

Reagan did the same in 1980, with great effect.

Nah, the teleprompter will be up and running. I’m sure Obama’s crack crew of Hollywood producers will make it look slick.

We must be making a dent and he feels that he can't EVEN COUNT on his propaganda MSM to bail him out.

A SIGN OF DESPERATION!

I guess that means Mac gets the same amount of time right?

This is the act of a desperate man. 1/2 an hour, uninterupted socialist BS. Empty promises of lower taxes etc. Ratings will tank just like crowds at his speeches.
