So with the economic situation right now, and McCain shooting his own campaign in the foot
with his statements, who wants to bet that they move up their schedule on when they release the Wright/'btter' ads? We all knew they would be holding them for October, but with this economic situation, and McCain's response (forming a commission) being ridiculed, they will want to change the narrative and will need to do something desperate to do so.

2. I don't know - Palin used "clinging to guns and religion" line today,
and that's been done to death.

3. Of course they'll use Wright and "Bittergate" ads
And Ayers. And Alinsky. And Farrakhan. And every negative thing, real or fictional, they can throw at Obama. They have nothing else.

Hopefully all these things will have lost their punch, especially since McCain tried awfully hard to throw away his credibility, but they ARE coming.

4. Hillary did Barack a pretty big favor
in making sure all that stuff came out early and got played to death with most people long before the General.
