The Unstable/Unable ticket of McPalin has no recourse but to fall back on slander, deceit, innuendo and lies.
It's Desparation Hyperdrive for them and they have nothing to lose - but the election - and because they have no cohesive platform to stand on, the only thing left is to speed-read the Karl Rove Playbook of Filthy Politics.
But I don't think it will work this time. Not for the voters and not for the media. It stinks. And every time we get a whiff it takes us back to Bush 2000 and Bush 2004, and that simple fact will cause people to pause before allowing themselves to be fooled again.
We are in a time of financial upheaval, insecurity and distrust of the powers-that-be, and it will express itself as ANGER.
Obama can attempt to stay above the fray (which for the most part I believe he should) but we CAN NOT!
We must fight back with everything we've got.
