hey all you readers, I want to tell both of you that I just got of the phone with David Axelrod of the Gobama campaign. Here’s what he sees as the attack lines for the next deabte, which some newspapers still struggling to sell Democracy to the american people are calling ‘Round II.”
McCain has been instructed by his (younger) handlers to compare the american self-defense instinct to a guard dog in Joe-six pack and hockey-mom’s back yard, and then say “and we, as americans don’t wanna muzzle ‘em!” At least 10% of the intellectuals will see it right away, this subtle attack on Obama’s religion, while the majority of Joe-six pack, and John whiskey bottle, and Barney gambling problem will only sunconsciously hear “muslim.” Another, and much younger strategist suggested the less subtle Approach…McCain: “…that might be okay for liberal Elites, but hardworking americans can’t pay more taxes, you filthy sandy crypto-muslim! (pause) That’s right Abdulh, pray to THIS five times a day!!” (and then flip him off). And also to freely uses the phrases…..”I was born in America, not Kenya, and maybe my Uncle never ran a marathon, but he built the machines that built the roads upon which America runs..” and…”Maybe that’s what you call a healthcare plan, but my plan would be cheaper if we didn’t have to worry about dirty stinking third world muslim diseases from Africa you sneaky risky Muslim!”
Granted, most strategists don’t expect McCain to go so negative, so fast, and suspect it would sink his struggling campaign. But, on the other hand..what else can he do?
