McCain takes a break while Obama heads to Denver

SEDONA, Ariz. (AP) — John McCain will keep a light campaign schedule for the next few days, but the Republican nominee-in-waiting has no intention of conceding Democratic National Convention week to his rival, Barack Obama.

..

His advisers and aides, however, hit Obama hard. On Sunday, the campaign released an ad featuring one-time rival Hillary Rodham Clinton's words against Obama — a move condemned by a Clinton spokeswoman.

An Obama spokesman says the strategy isn't one coming from a place of strength.

"Hiding out in one of your seven houses while your surrogates launch more low-road attacks is not a surprising strategy for John McCain," said spokesman Hari Sevugan. "But given his shocking disconnect with the struggles of American families, John McCain would be better served using this time to rewrite his economic plan that was authored by an adviser who thinks we are a 'nation of whiners' and which offers nothing more than the same failed Bush economic policies of the last eight years."

McCain advisers said he wanted to stay close to home this week and finish picking a running mate. Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney and Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty were under serious consideration.

7. Obama could reply: "McCain is running a George W. Bush-league campaign"

"Falsehood, innuendo and personal attack are used to distract Americans from the sorry state of the country under Republican policies."
