Please understand this one simple fact.
This race HAS to be a referendum on Bush's policy. Hence the McCain=Bush's third term label.
If you doubt this is true, consider the 04 elections. With as bad as we were doing in 04 is there ANY fucking way Kerry should have lost???? No. So why did Kerry lose?
Kerry lost because he let Rove make the election about Kerry. That's what the swiftboating was all about. Misdirection. That's exactly what Rove is trying to pull this year, misdirection.
If we engage the McCain attacks (which will continue) they will dominate the last 3 months and this will be about Obama, and Obama will lose.
Email all the liberal organizations you know. Unions, MoveOn, NOW, NARAL, VoteVets....any and all of them. Explain to them that they won't get the media off these attacks without attacking McCain themselves. Obama can't do it! He's black. Angry black candidates cannot win, sorry. He needs their support and help.
Give them the message to attack McCain using the shiny objects theory....topics the media can't help but focus on...sex/adultery/drugs/9-11/nukes/terrorism/patriotism/homosexuality. You know all the media's favorite stories, it's what McSame is using against Obama to great affect.
Steal the media spotlight from these clever GOP misdirection plays and hammer home the McCain=Bush III theme. Learn from 04, don't repeat the same mistakes.
