I have no idea now this works - this was the post -
I’ve heard Senator Obama say emphatically that if the republicans come at him, he will fight back and fight hard. Well I want to see that now. They have come at him. Yes it’s been a bit confusing because it’s wrapped up with Senator Clinton coming at him. But honestly – the question of how he will handle it is a question to answer now.
Go on a patriotic blast – Now! I believe he loves his country immensely to put himself through what he has, and will, endure. But it’s not me he needs to convince. Do a national ad with the vet in Erie thanking him for running. Do an ad with 21 year olds saying that after 8 years of George Bush being mocked all over the world that they feel immense pride in Obama. Get Michelle out there more talking about her appreciation for the investment in public education that led her to unique opportunity in life.
There is so much that is positive, in keeping with his campaign theme, that can be done now – before the media continues to question him on this.
Obama has the grace and ability to be tough without being an obnoxious jerk. McCain is much more susceptible to coming off badly in this type of fight. Obama does not have to cede patriotism to McCain, but after wathing McCain be interviewed this morning I think he may have to cede grace to Obama.
The general election strategy will be very interesting. But he can't use these against Hillary. Her continuing to snipe and parrot the Rightwing is muddying the waters. The sooner she leaves, the sooner he can roll out against McCain.
