It's perfectly okay for the chairman of the RNC to call the Senate Majority Leader a "dirty liar." But all hell would break loose if the chairperson of the DNC called Mitch McConnell or John Boehner a "dirty liar." Which, of course, they actually are.

Every right wing bobblehead on the radio and TV would be decrying the lack of respect and civility.

Besides, it's much better to draw attention to how Rmoney behaves/behaved and let the voter make up his/her mind based on the information. Name-calling is just pointless and ineffective. You have to SHOW people.

Obama has far too much class and dignity to ever get down in the sewer with the contender. He knows there are better, time-tested ways to get his point out. By simply being who he is and pointing out nitt's incompetence (tactfully, really) everything is playing into his hands.

but I think the attacks have to be about his record or his actions and not be too nasty.
