Same Attack Message, Different Week

Pardon me while I yawn.

I'm having a really hard time keeping up with the McCain campaign message, which is long on Obama attacks and fleeting on solutions that McCain offers if elected.

First Obama was a celebrity. Polls held steady in favor of Obama.

Then it was that whole lipstick on a pig comment and the trumped up charge of sexism from the conservative media. Again, the polls were locked tight.

Next, Obama was a terrorist. A barrage of automated phone calls were dialed by the McCain camp to swing state voters that warned of the impending doom our country will face if Obama was elected. Polls then showed movement. In favor of Obama.

This week Obama is a Socialist, at least according to Joe Handyman (formerly known as Joe Plumber). I've seen Handyman's stump speech and it's clearly evident that his spin is hijacked from talk hate-ee-oh and Sean Hanninsanity. The polls aren't budging.

Things are looking so grim for McCain that, with two weeks to go until the election, one electoral map now has the state of Arizona moved from safe McCain to leaning McCain.

Meanwhile, McCain and Sarah Fargo are busy spinning their wheels in states that they should have locked down months ago. Colorado, Missouri and North Carolina are red state bellwethers that are now rendered tossups.

Next to John Kerry in 2004, McCain has run the most idiotic, scatter-brained, fragmented, erratic and all together hyper-kinetic Presidential campaign I've seen in my lifetime.

Train wrecks are hard to watch. No matter how hard you try, you just can't look away.
