Wlliam Kristol said it’s time for John McCain to fire his campaign:
The McCain campaign, once merely problematic, is now close to being out-and-out dysfunctional. Its combination of strategic incoherence and operational incompetence has become toxic. If the race continues over the next three weeks to be a conventional one, McCain is doomed.
Seriously, if you hired a douchebag like Tucker Bounds to be your spokesperson, you are doomed.
Last Friday, my boss took me to PINK magazine’s 4th annual conference, a panel discussion of with American’s most influential women. Although I was relieved that I was not the only guy at the conference, men were way out-numbered. One of the panelists stood out to me was Marian Wright Edelman, founder and president of Children’s Defense Fund. Ms. Edelman was a humble, intelligent African-American woman who has her way with words. One of her advices during this crazy bailout time is to invest into the children. You simply can’t lose. I really like her advice. I am going to pull out of AIG and put my investment into my children (no punt intended).

This is a very bad news for the McCain campaign:
A legislative committee investigating Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin has found she unlawfully abused her authority in firing the state’s public safety commissioner.
The investigative report concludes that a family grudge wasn’t the sole reason for firing Public Safety Commissioner Walter Monegan but says it likely was a contributing factor.
When his supporter accused Obama of an Arab, McCain cut her off and defended: “No, maam. He’s a decent family man and citizen.”
McCain finally shows some decency, but it’s a bit too late. He has gone way too low. If he were to stayed true himself, he wouldn’t have let his campaign hit bottom.
What happen to the “respectful campaign” McCain said he would run early this year? He is now doing everything he said he wouldn’t do. But to be fair, you have to give the old guy a break. McCain is not perfect. He’s just a hypocrite.
McCain brings out his last pawn to attack Obama. She sounds so dramatically pathetic: “I would suggest that senator Obama change shoes with me for just one day.” Shit, I’ll wear Cindy’s high heels anytime to be in her rich-ass position.
Then again, all these vicious attacks only boost up Obama’s lead. So keep them coming.

I can take four more weeks of McCain’s attacks but America can’t take four more years of failed McCain-Bush-look-alike policies.
Yes, less than four more weeks to go and Obama actually already knew the negative attacks were coming. Hang in there, Obama. Stay calm and stay focus.
