The Fruits Of Negative Campaigning
David Weigel comments on the video of Palin-McCain supporters I posted earlier:
This is a huge problem with the McCain
campaign's negative turn. No swing voter took offense if a Bush
surrogate called Kerry a limp-wristed, French-looking fraud. But I
think they wince when they hear someone accusing Obama of terrorist
"bloodlines." The guy still has a net 18-point favorable rating. People
simply don't look at him and think "radical." The velocity with which
the McCain campaign has become a political arm of Sean Hannity's
America makes it look ugly and desperate, rather than strong, as Bush I
looked when he mocked Dukakis or Bush II looked when he mocked Kerry.
