...it's only July. Be patient.  Obama has said that he won't make personal attacks but I'm curious to see what his definition of "personal attack" is. I also kind of wonder if we're beyond it at this point. The internet will do a damn good job of tearing McCain apart with these type of ads so does Obama even have to get his hands dirty with them? When videos like this have 2.8 million views in less than 2 months, it's kind of unnecessary.

Because it might give the impression of a young black man beating up on an old white guy, like a mugging or something? Don't get me wrong, that isn't what I personally think, but I predict that you will start hearing an awful lot of that kind of "political mugging" rhetoric coming from the right-wing smear machine real soon. You heard it here first.

He doesn't have to as he is ahead in all of the polls. After both conventions and both candidates have their bounce, Obama will go on the attack. He is just waiting trying to keep his pretty boy image as long as he can. If he is going to be the next President, I at least hope he shows that he has a backbone along the way.

Really? I know Fox and Co. have their smear campaigns but that's one take I never even thought they could use. | Quote, originally posted by njn63 » | reaction to the video or my post? If post, please expand. |
Gotta be the video because I had the same reaction. That's just, well, I mean, I'm just glad I'm voting for Ron Paul because I would be sick if I had to vote for McCain.
