I would just like to say KUDOS to the Obama campaign staff

[garybeck]

I'm thinking back to Kerry... when he was swiftboated, the campaign staff was like a deer in the headlights. they thought you can just sit back and ignore attacks, and his smile will win the election.

The Obama campaign staff is doing an excellent job, fighting back against outrageous accusations. the "apology tour" and "Obama is failing on the economy" memes are failing bigtime thanks to coordinated efforts. They are fighting back, not only with facts and figures, but also with catchy soundbytes that capture the attention of the american people.

Not only are they fighting back, but they're going on the offense. The 47% gaffe is just a couple days old and we're already seeing the Obama campaign staff dig right into it, as well they should.

Good job!

1. It is refreshing from past candidates

2. If only our Congress critters would stand up and fight back...

We could fold up the Teapotty and file them under "gone".

3. Kerry was just an awful awful nominee

It was infuriating.

5. I think he would have made a great president. I just think his campaign was a disaster.

6. Pres Obama is one of those rare politicians

that campaigns AND governs well. Nice to see.

[garybeck]

8. I also think Kerry actually won that election in spite of his pathetic campaign

there was a mountain of funny business going on in Ohio (and other states) with Diebold, missing ballots, white stickers found on the ovals, exit polls, ......

10. Agreed 100% And he would have been a great president

But as the nominee he just couldn't hack it.

4. kicking ass and taking names

7. Critically Dems are staying on message

while ReTHUGs are flailing around in futility

9. Stay on target and keep it up.
