    The McCain Campaign Is Playing The Race Card Along With The Fear Card

    Joan Walsh is totally letting the McCain campaign off the hook or easy just as she does as a panelist on MSNBC.

    Look at what they (McCain campaign) have been doing all along, the Paris Hilton/Britney Spears ad, accusing him of being unpatriotic, accusing him of wanting to lose the war which is totally beyond the pale and she thinks they were not being racist in this little charade that Rick Davis pulled yesterday. Andrea Mitchell also did not pummel Davis either.

    I believe that Barack knows what he is doing and he will not let them pull what they have done in the Kerry and Gore campaign but what is going on here now with the McCain campaign has Karl Rove written all over it.
