Do average voters even know what the word "plagiarized" means? And if so, can they cite the correct name, spelling, nationality and party of the person whose words Senator Biden borrowed more than 20 years ago? And finally, does ANY of that matter to Americans who right now are worried about losing their homes, paying for gas, affording health care, planning for retirement, saving the planet, and sending their kids to college? Methinks not. The Rovian attackmeisters to whom McCain has sold his campaign and his soul — not to mention the inside-the-Beltway media crowd that so merrily parrots their talking points — have nothing else to fall back on but character assassination and "vote Republican or you'll die." Sad, silly, and so woefully yesterday.
