2. I am torn on it.
I want to see mccain knocked on his lying ass. But, I want to avoid getting mired in the land of "Personality" at the expense of "Issues".

I know we win on issues, but the fight for character is to easily distorted and slandered.

I think the best approach will be that Obama is good for you, Mccain is against you self interest. Mccain has to be framed as a terrifying prospect because of his policies.

3. If the issues aren't enough to enrage people, inertia will keep them with McCain.

11. The damage needs to be thrown all over the election.
Plenty of time to talk about repairs in November.

18. Change and Hope is not a slogan that will defeat these scumbags in the last 7 weeks.

21. Change is Obama's position. McCain has tried to steal it. If Obama
drops it now he will not be being himself and McCain will have won.

19. I think all four angles can coexist. Obama and all Dems should be yelling, "Get MAD, people!!
They're taking you for a ride once again!" The American voters should be angry that Repubs have even DARED TO RUN a candidate this year, for how badly they fucked us all up--let alone insulting and endangering us with Palin, and spewing lies, and pretending to be "reformers" when they would have to reform themselves first.
