The past few days I have been disappointed in the Obama campaign. Their failure to adequately address the latest McCain ad smearing him by saying he did not want to visit the troops may cost his big in the end.
Where is the ad responding to the lies? When HRC put out her negative ads against him Obama had his rolling out the next day. Why is he not doing so now?
I know Obama wants to be seen as the better person and candidate, which he is, but it's time to kick some ass!
Obama said If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun,"Obama said at a fundraiser in Philadelphia a few weeks ago.
The Obama campaign has effectively stood by and watched the RNC, GOP, and McCain talking heads call him "unpatriotic." This is what happened to Kerry and Obama claimed he would not be "swiftboated." Well guess what? You are and you are doing nothing.
This election is far from over and he cannot stand by and let these charges go unanswered in hopes that voters will understand. They are idiots as evidenced by the 2000 and 2004 elections.
You need to get some hard hitters out there like Biden and Kerry to slam McCain for using the troops as political props. No one has even bothered pointing out that McCain cancelled his own trip to the same base after being notified by the Pentagon of the same rules. No one dared question McCain's support for the troops..
HRC was mean. Republicans are meaner and nastier and you have to get dirty to fight them. So bring out the guns. Your supporters have your back.
PS – I love Robert Gibbs but he is weak and they need a strong, more forecful in tone and message. John McCain is neither honorable or worthy of our respect and admiration.
Update and Correction:
McCain was denied access to speak at Naval Base in Annapolis because the Pentagon viewed it as a campaign event.
In March, McCain and Cindy visited Europeafter the GOP Primaries and did not bother visting the troops. He was too busy holding fundraisers for Americans living abroad hosted by a Bristish Lord.
John McCain had time to hold fundraisers in Paris and London but could not be bothered to visit the troops in Landsthul a mere 4 hours away. Why does John McCain hate the troops?
