Actually there is a very good chance that some of McCain leaning 527's will get McCain in trouble rather than out...

The Clintons did not fare well when they used subtle race tricks and they were subtle... Now fast forward to this October an' the last thing in the world that John McCain is going to need is to be percieved as allowing others to use race on his behalf...

Gonna be a lot trickier than the Swiftboaters of the Willie Hortons because one of the things that people say they are sick of is politics as usual and I'm sure the Obama folks have allready anticipated the various attacks, disected them and are ready to turn these attacks back on the attackers, just as they did to the Clintons...

There won't be a repeat of Dukakis and you can take that to the bank...
