ACORN: That chestnut sunk badly today when a repub organization leader got arrested for voter registration fraud.

McCain had just as much right to opt out of public financing as Obama. Kerry was sunk because he was tied by that crap.

No one intimated that it was a video game.

We all know what was done. I suggested what might have worked better for him.

I see no response regarding anything except for the public financing thing, so I'll address it. I suppose you are going to deny that Obama said, in public, that he would go the public financing route if McCain did? Well, McCain did what he said he was going to do and Obama didn't. What does that tell you about the man and what kind of attack might have worked. Same thing with Obama's "any time, anywhere" about town hall meetings and then pleading that he didn't have enough time. It's not about having a way out of a commitment, it's about keeping your commitments, which I'm sure Obama will do for those that have paid his way into the whitehouse (namely, all the greedy bastards you can think of).

If you vote on who ran the better campaign, then you're missing the point. The point is who do you really think would do the better job when the real work starts, namely getting this country out of the mess it's in.

It will be damaging to McCain, but I doubt that it will have a major influance on republican voters as Powell doesn't seem to have much swing with them, as for undecided voters, it could be a different story.
