Tonight, John McCain has promised the Republican base that he is going to “kick his (Barack Obama) you know what.” Senator McCain, with all due respect, this is what Obama has been waiting for and your demeanor will prove to be the nail in your coffin.
There is new information on the recent ties of John McCain and the Republican Party to Walter and Leonora Annenberg (who have funded Ayers and given money to Republican candidates including McCain) as well as McCain being on record as supporting ACORN. Even the Reverend Wright issue is problematic given McCain’s ties to Pastor Hagee and Palin’s controversial religious connections.
McCain’s best hope for any traction from tonight’s debate is to show a clear difference between himself and Obama on the economy. Tell us why government intervention is not a good idea in the long term. Share the fiscally conservative position that smaller government (less taxes and less spending) is better for all Americans, instead of out socializing Obama by offering more spending programs and government bailouts.
Unfortunately, I think the die is cast. McCain will attack and fail miserably. Obama will parry the attack while looking presidential. The Straight Talk Express will lose its last tire and whimper to Election Day… far from the finish line.
