Thsese types of articles are among the top ten reasons Obama is guaranteed to lose. Not making these kinds of personal attacks is precicely the change that Obama represented. You are watering down his message. And, personally, I think he stands by that message(though with much strain because of Palin's dominance). But Salon of late is like a deformed exageration of the old way of personal attack. Such an exageration has never worked. That's why you don't see it. I think this style is the result of a knee jerk, emotional wreck, panic reaction to a misperception of what Rush Limbaugh has been so successful doing-- exposing liberals for what they really believe in -- policy-wise. But if you expose Palin for what she really believes policy-wise, you would only hurt your own chances because that is what the majority of voters believe. Here's the only strategy that will work for you, become true conservatives.
