Makes ya proud doesn't it?

(Did I come off too "Michelle" there?)

Reminds me of the one with Obama as "Curious George."  Tragic. 

My friends, I'm afraid it's going to get ugly.  I would love to see an "above the boards" campaign, but the ads are already nasty. 

Something else worth looking at:

McCain is fighting back. He's been calling an Obama Presidency Jimmy Carter's second term.

For good or for bad, that's probabaly a lot closer to the truth than McCain being Bush's third term.

Only if it's the first time you've been proud in your adult life.  :P

Carter? Remind me again, isn't he the one where the conspiracy theorists tell us that Reagan kept at him for failing to liberate the American hostages in Lebanon (?) while secretly he had a deal with the hostage takers NOT to release them until after the election?

Or do I have my conspiracy theories mixed up? 

Perhaps McCain is too old to realize that many voters don't even remember
the Carter presidency? It ended nearly 28 years ago!

Maybe that's gonna play in the Dems favor.  No matter how much of a bogeyman they try to paint Carter to be, his post-presidency work has been important and high-profile.  The man just won the Nobel Prize for heaven's sake. 

I admit his term as president wasn't very good, but his later work (the work the youth will remember him for) has been very positive for the country.
