Obama should really step up his attacks on McCain

[Thrill]

McCain keeps saying that he doesn't have the knowledge.

Is in my opinion. A personal insult. And he should take it that way. I wouldn't take that shit. I'm sorry.

1. Obama seems to be doing fine.

2. Obama's been way too soft on McCain

He obviously feels you win elections by taking the "high road" rather than by ever attacking your opponent. I think that's a big mistake but Bush has been so bad that Obama may still get away with the mistake.

4. Don't Think I Like Obama Ripping On McCain While Overseas

That's too much like Bush making the appeasement reference in Israel. Way too partisan when we are in a foreign country. When Obama gets back, then he should have at McCain. However, I think sniping at McCain while in Europe would seem kind of cheap like Bush.

3. When he gets back, I think he'll do two things: Hit back on these charges, and

emphasize the economy.

5. I think going that negative on McCain could hurt him

He's a war hero and an old man and... blah, blah. No doubt the press would be up in arms if he called McCain a traitor like McCain keeps painting him.

6. McCain is digging his own hole Obama has no need to go there right now

McCain is getting laughed at by the press and the rest of the country. Let him keep fucking up every other day on his own.

7. as Obama isn't officially 'campaigning' this week while away

I think it's probably wise not to shoot back at McCain until he gets back - them let him have both barrels.

never underestimate the wisdom of the Obama campaign. ;)

8. I respectfully disagree

One of the reasons I have respect for Obama is that he has not gotten down and dirty. He can and has made comments on McCain's charges and still remained dignified. McCain has come off as angry, desperate and a grouch.

10. I agree! Obama ignores him and gets the job done.

Hey it worked with HRC and she REALLY got under his skin. It's not Obama's nature to go negative. He stand by while McCain implodes.

9. Yah - because he's doing just oh-so-shitty now....

Your worthless concern is noted.
