Has Obama released any attack ads on McCain? |
|
With McCain going almost purely negative already it got me wondering; has Obama released even one negative ad yet about McCain?

2. Just fight back ones that I know of. I don't think he can though. |
|
He has promised NOT to run a negative, as usual, campaign, and if he jumps on the negative stuff, he will have broken that promise. I happen to believe what the talking heads have been saying. Let your surrogates do that stuff. They've even said that the candidate (referring to McNuts) shouldn't be doing this, the should leave it up to his surrogates.

3. McCain claims that Obama started the downward spiral |

4. No, and don't expect him too. |
|
A. He doesn't want to. (it's just not like him, it's not dignified)
B. He doesn't need to. (he is winning and will continue to win)
C. He said he wouldn't. (and among the two candidates, he'd the one who doesn't lie)
You can expect response ads, like his one today, and truthful issue ads.

7. I'm sorried that all this is happening soo early |
|
BEFORE the conventions. Neither of these people are actually the nominee, just the nominee apparent. What worries me is that the GOP rules basically say, fuck the primaries, we can STILL do what we want! That means that mclame might just disappear and be replaced AT THE CONVENTION! That means all the bloodying up that Obama has taken will still be there, and McCain gone, with someone fairly new and fresh to start the war against all over again!
Literally I don't think this could hurt the COP. They are so out there anyway, and McCain causes so much apathy in the party, that changing horses mid-run can't hurt them!
And that is what bothers me. I want mclame to go on and become the nominee official, then Obama is sure to win. But ... what if they play by their own rules, and just change to someone else... what then?
