John McCain recently made a televised remark that he may regret. He said that if there were a video of him and Sarah Palin feasting with neo-Nazis, the press would be all over it. He should never have created such a dire perception in the minds of voters.
Suddenly, people everywhere will take a second look at Joe the plumber and wonder if he represents the hard working American or just a skinhead driving force. Neo-Nazi efforts to assassinate Obama did not take place years ago (as Obama’s alleged socialist meetings did), but right now, today, while Americans go to vote.
Threat to Obama stirs painful memories

Colorado police seized two rifles with hunting scopes and ammunition from a man they arrested a day before the Democratic national conventionopened in Denver to formally nominate Obama as its candidate for the November 4 election.
Altogether three men were arrested. Court documents had one man quoting another as speaking of wanting to kill Obama on his inauguration day, using a sniper rifle to shoot the Illinois senator from high ground.

Why does the Republican election campaign look so lame?
"blood simple" is a term coined by mystery writer Dashiell Hammett to describe the addled, fearful mindset people are in after a prolonged immersion in illegal situations: confused and vague; used especially of thinking; "muddleheaded ideas"; "your addled little brain"; "woolly thinking"; "woolly-headed ideas."
An angry young German-American man with far right views and a shaved head? It's not what you think! Skinheads have nothing to do with being bald. They have everything to do with wearing downbeat suspender belts and Dr. Martens boots (yes, that's their secret bond). But plumbers also wear steel-tipped boots. See, it's not what you think! He is merely Sarah Palin's economic advisor on income tax matters.
Mascot of a failed election campaign.
