This will certainly blunt Palin's Ayers attacks
Democratic surrogates say they've been given the go-ahead from the Obama campaign to mention John McCain's
associations with S&L kingpin Charles Keating and other historically tarnished creatures when asked about Obama's
connection to ex-Weatherman William Ayers.
A senior Democrat who has had contact with Obama's high command points to Democratic strategist Paul Begala's
comments on this morning's Meet the Press.
Begala noted that McCain once "sat on the board of a very right wing organization," the U.S. Council for World Freedom,
led by a retired Army Maj. General named John Singlaub. The Anti-Defamation League allegedly called the CWF's parent
organization a gathering place for racists and anti-Semites.
Said Begala: "Now, that's not John McCain. I don't think he is that. But, but, you know, the problem is that a lot of people
know John McCain's record better than Governor Palin, and he does not want to play guilt by association or this thing
could blow up in his face."
Other potential negative associations for McCain are his long-time South Carolina consultant, Richard Quinn, a publisher
of a Southern heritagte magazine, and John Hagee, a pastor whose endorsement McCain solicited and later rejected.

CRICKETS

You used to argue facts, Joe.
You would tell us why this info isn't relevant.
Now, you just call names, shout 'crickets', and claim you KNOW this story is BS even though it's just breaking now.

No wait..lemme guess. It just came through @ 11:45am your time on a Sunday...right?

I say, good, McCain is going mega negative now, Obama should too.
