McCain: The Ultimate Fear-Monger

McCain ad uses Biden to attack Obama on security

This is exactly why McCain is tanking in the polls. Rather than address the looming financial crisis and recession, he chooses to run a campaign based on fear, loose associations, and his opponents kinda-sorta gaffes. He offers NO ANSWERS, NO PLANS, NO HOPE. It's just FEAR, FEAR, FEAR.

McCain, you can try all you want to get me and other reasonable Americans to be scared of Obama. It's not going to work. What we find scary is your inability to recognize a losing strategy that you continue to pursue. It kind of reminds me of the current Republican president, and it's no way to run a campaign, let alone a country.

Good observation. The negative campaigning has been misdirected.

Both candidates have been attacking.

Perhaps it's time to assess the real reason Obama's attacks stick while McCain's ricochet.
