Neil D Posted August 17, 2008 Author Share Posted August 17, 2008 Here is something that NBC, by some an overt liberal newsmedia, has found regarding the McCain ads. Camp McCain's position regarding taxes, who went negitive first, energy policys, et al. Quote Democracy is a device that ensures we shall be governed no better than we deserve.

Dr. Shane Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Negative is necessary. One can still take the high road and go negative. Focusing on rumors (like the Swift-boat veterans) is taking the low road. Playing guilt-by-association is on the low road. But simply going negative is not of and by itself on the low road. Obama needs to get off the defensive and on the offensive if he is going to win. His rebuttals only serve to do him more harm. The more he defends himself the more people dwell on the accusations. I have worked with campaigns that tossed out bogus arguments just to put the opposition on the defensive. Quote Pastoral Family Counselor...

Neil D Posted August 17, 2008 Author Share Posted August 17, 2008 Well, it might go negitive the last 6 weeks of the campaign, but right now, Obama is gaining points by explaining his economic package. When McCain attacks with overstated arguments, and a staffer explains where McCain is wrong, then McCain looks to being a doofus or at least desparte to get to the White House. A statesman educates his constituancy. A leader comes up with new ideas to impliment. Obama is a statesman and a leader....
