Thread Name: BS: McCain/Lieberman v Obama/Biden
Subject: RE: BS: McCain/Lieberman v Obama/Biden
The entire idea of a "Black Masiah" as the McCain PR team has tried to frame Obama as such I find terribly condesending on the McCain teams part... Might of fact, just about everything that the McCain t team has put together is intended to discredit Obama personally...

The problem I have with this isn't as much accepting the reality that negative ads work but that it has been McCain's team that started the campaign down a slippery slope and now Obama's team, or order to not be rolled over with negativity is having to return in kind...

The losers, of course, will be the American people because it is this negativity that fuels partisanship and partisanship is the major reason that the system doesn't work...

And "Black Masiah" could have been the idea that McCain, the so called maverick and straight shooter, could have said, "Not on my watch"... But he didn't and now I think it is too late to bring any level of civility to this campaign or to our government...

Shame on you, John "straight talker" McCain... Shame on you...
