It's only going to get worse.

That ad was nowhere near as crass as the one against Ford, and if Obama wants to spend his time courting Oprah and Europeans that's to his own demise.

refusing to drill oil out of a barren mud pit. That'll make a few good ads for Barr I suppose.

McCain's best (only?) strategy for victory will be to drive up Obama's negatives.

Digby on the racial undertones we'll be seeing.

I always knew McSame was a scum bag, but I really never realized that he was a stupid as he has proven to be in this campaign. Just plain ol' ordinary stupid.

...the senator from Arizona made a high-profile split with environmentalists and reversed his opposition to the federal ban on offshore drilling.

And now Poor Cindy's become a liar.

Then there's this theory about the GOP's strategy. Money quote:

...there is something remarkable about the idea that the first African-American nominee of a major political party, raised by a single mother, whose shaping political experience was as a community organizer on the mean streets of Chicago, is facing a campaign based in some measure on the idea that "he acts like he's too good for us."
