Now it's all guns, god, and gays (well not yet, but that's coming). Wedge issues. Silly season.

After the Convention, the Dems. need to keep hammering away at the economy.

1. that is all they got, the repigs play the same hand over and over

3. Economy? What economy? Iraq? What's Iraq? Climate change? What's that?
Never heard of those. All I know is P.O.W. and 9/11.

4. Agree. In that way, McCain's choice was a way of getting the wedge issues in play. You're right...
... Obama et al need to focus on the economy (and the war and McCain's poor judgement) like a laser after the RNC.

5. Everything except Palin seems to be off the table
McCain should be the only issue.

The Dems have NOT stopped talking about the economy.
Obama & Biden (and their top surrogates) are going around the country talking about the economy. But since the left owns none of the M$M, which are all rabid RW corporate shills, then the propaganda that people are forced to see makes it seem as if they aren't discussing it. If you look at other media such as CSPAN when they run a town hall or rally live (or run the videotape later), you will see the economy discussion being taken directly TO the people.

6. Exactly right - We need to get back to the winning issues -- Economy, Economy, Economy!

7. GOP wants the race to be about personalities not about issues.
