Todos contra Obama

GOP Head Compares Obama to Bin Laden Va. Party Leader Criticized, Including By McCain Team (By Tim Craig, The Washington Post)

El estratega de Barack Obama, David Axelrod y el manager de John McCain, Rick Davis en "Fox News Sunday." Los dos representantes discuten -pelean sería mas acertado-sobre el tema que ha estado en la mesa durante el fin de semana: la retórica y ataques republicanos en contra de Barack Obama y su relación con Bill Ayers. 18 minutos complicados, porque los dos hablan al mismo tiempo....

BREAKING -- from Obama campaign release: 'Senator Barack Obama to Deliver Major Policy Address Unveiling Economic Rescue Plan For The Middle Class -- Today in Toledo, Ohio, Senator Obama will deliver a major policy address to lay out his economic rescue plan for the middle class.' Speech at 1:30 p.m.

JOHN HARWOOD WRITES IN NYT THAT A GAP LIKE McCAIN'S IS RARELY BRIDGEABLE: 'Has John McCain fallen too far behind, too late in the presidential campaign, to overtake Barack Obama? ... History suggests that the answer is probably so. ... In the latest Gallup tracking poll, Mr. Obama leads Mr. McCain 50 percent to 43 percent among registered voters. Mr. McCain's deficit in that survey has remained seven percentage points or more for most of the last two weeks. Since Gallup began presidential polling in 1936, only one candidate has overcome a deficit that large, and this late, to win the White House: Ronald Reagan, who trailed President Jimmy Carter 47 percent to 39 percent in a survey completed on Oct. 26, 1980.... Four years ago, Senator John Kerry trailed Mr. Bush slightly in the homestretch. A near-even split on Election Day among the few remaining undecided voters sealed Mr. Kerry's defeat.'

WILLIAM KRISTOL in the NYT, 'Fire the Campaign': 'It's time for John McCain to fire his campaign. He has nothing to lose. His campaign is totally overmatched by Obama's. The Obama team is well organized, flush with resources, and the candidate and the campaign are in sync. The McCain campaign, once merely problematic, is now close to being out-and-out dysfunctional. Its combination of strategic incoherence and operational incompetence has become toxic. If the race continues over the next three weeks to be a conventional one, McCain is doomed. He may be anyway. ... But I'm not convinced by such claims of inevitability. McCain isn't Bush. The media isn't all-powerful. And the economic crisis still presents an opportunity to show leadership. The 2008 campaign is now about something very big - both our future prosperity and our national security. .
