I think Obama is gradually starting to touch some Republican nerves.
I don't know if anybody else has noticed, but we seem to have a lot of - ahem - "visitors" today.

Barack must be doing something right if he's getting the right-wing in a tizzy. His message is getting across and starting to get more attention compared to Palin especially after her ABC disaster.

I would wager that Obama is going to start escalating his offensive from here, timing this election just right so that his peak will be on election day.

50 days is a lot of time in politics. Think of where we were 50 days ago from today. Completely different mentality.

2. Getting them "fake mad" is a good start. Really mad is better.

3. McCain is running ads that campaigns normally only run during the last two weeks when they think
there wont be enough time for them to get called out on their lies. There are 50+ days left and McCain should have absolutely NO credibility.

This will come back to haunt them.

5. He didn't have to do anything. They know Palin F**ked up
and they are scrambling to cover.

I saw one earlier, earnesting implying that Wikipedia provided the correct understanding of the Bush Doctrine.

ROFL! Can you imagine? :rofl:

We really need to start pounding it home that stupidity is not cute or tolerable.

8. Yeah grab a screenshot if you have the capability.
I had to kick that thread because in the article Giuliani basically called Bush a war-mongerer. Funny stuff!

10. Gradual and relentless is the best way to start this kind of thing
you keep building and the other side ends up all played out by the end.

11. Like George Foreman fans in Zaire.
They will get even angrier.

And they will be ridiculed.
