I am not surprised at the comments I've seen here on salon about this issue at all. In truth, I fully expected the readers of this site to stoop to the absolute lowest level of gutter politics regarding this issue. It simply shows how desperate liberals are to bring down Sarah Palin since she was named the GOP VP candidate. She is a lot like Hillary only socially conservative and the dems are scared. Liberals are upset because Obama didn't get the bounce in the polls that was expected after his speech in front of 80k screaming communists. Obama was hoping to lure more voters by guilting them into voting for him to make history by electing the first black man POTUS. McCain took the history theme away though when Palin entered the picture. Now what can Obama do? Continue to link McCain to Bush as if Bush is running for a third term. WEAK, WEAK, WEAK! I know Obama believes in the pysops concept of repeating the like enough times until the audience believes it to be fact, but if that is all you've got then you're going to be in trouble Obama. What he is really doing is deflecting the attention away from him so no one will ask him the tough questions about his plans for change. No worries though, he will be exposed in the debates for the fraud he truly is folks.
Let's get out of the gutter people and force these candidates to talk about the issues and not their families.
