Obama cannot wait for mccain's 527 swift boats to come out in the 11th hour

[still_one]

he must release his swift boats now, and go on the offensive

[begin_within]

1. The swift boats are arriving now

Here's an article about it:

6. don't worry they're docking ,getting fuel and getting ready to head out to sea,with guns a-blazing

12. goodness, McCain looks like Gollum from the Rankin-Bass version of The Hobbit in that pic! n/t

[Eric J in MN]

15. Is there a story about that photo of McCain?

Why does he look so creepy in that photo?

[begin_within]

16. I don't know... it just came out 2 days ago,

and someone posted the full-size version here then.

18. Does the frowning-Sarah-Palin photo have a story? NT

NT

[begin_within]

20. It just came out today,

and I don't know anything about it... or should I say, "In what respect, Eric J in MN?"

[blm]

2. Obama camp is NOT going to lie because corpmedia would NEVER let a proDem group get AWAY with a lie

the way they do for GOP groups.

Any Dem group that even TRIED to lie in an election would get 24/7 smearing and exposure for that lie from the corpmedia.

You do understand that Dems don't 'swiftboat' and CAN'T 'swiftboat' because they'd never be allowed the room to get away with even the smallest lie in a campaign?

4. I am not talking about lying, I am talking about presenting ugly truths

about mccain and palin that most people are not aware of

I am talking about things like his association with the keating 5. Why would anyone vote against a day honoring Martin Luther King. Why would someone who says he supports the military vote againt GI bills. Why would he pick a VP who husband belonged to the AIP, which calls for succession from the United States. Why would he pick a VP who is against abortion in the cases of rape, incest, and the life of the Mother?

I could go on, but this is what I am talking about, things that should make most people cringe

[blm]

5. well, swiftboat as a campaign word means to lie as big as you can about your opponent...

and shouldn't be used to describe any action by a proDemocratic campaign.

[still_one]

7. understood, thanks. Interesting that even without the swiftboats, mccain is lying in his ads /nt

[AndyTiedye]

8. We Don't Need To Lie. We Do Need to Spend about 10x As Much Money

Our ads will never become "news", so they will never get all the free replays that the Republican ads get.

[blm]

9. Absolutely...and have surrogates willing to show more enthusiasm in support of truth than the GOPs

and their spokespeople are willing to show in support of the lies.

[HughMoran]

11. Who said anything about lying?

Yes, the right-wingers do lie.

[blm]

13. swiftboating in a campaign means LYING SO BIG and getting corpmedia to help you.

And NO Dem group would ever get away with that. You know what I mean.

3. SEIU has a new ad hitting the airwaves tomorrow

[FrenchieCat]

10. Great ad......

[GoesTo11]

14. Maybe a preemptive ad warning about swiftboat ads?

Try to innoculate so there's less impact from them?

[jillan]

17. Do we know what they are going to attack Obama on?

[FVZA_Colonel]

19. Wright, Rezko and Weyers.

They've already done it, but they'll be bringing them back.

[jillan]

21. Wright - ha - do they really want to go there? Palin's preacher thinks it's okay to kill Jews.

And has also said negative things about America.

I pray we are ready.
