Original article: Quote of the day: Palin on Obama

McCain/Palin's personal attacks on Obama

Smear tactics were used to good effect by Richard Nixon in all of his campaigns. John McCain can no longer claim to be running "an honorable campaign" as he ramps up the smear machine against Obama. I just hope the electorate sees his "aggressive" new approach for what it is: the act of a desperate man who's afraid he's going to lose the race of his life.
