Obama campaign adopts harder tone

This less sunny approach includes harsher attacks on John McCain and George W. Bush.

Would I be incorrect in assuming that these new ads are a reflection of the Obama camp’s full out PANIC?

Yes, you are incorrect.

That tactic of scaring people about what will happen if the other side wins is exactly the strategy that led to a lot of Republicans getting their behinds handed to them in 2006

It doesn’t work…and it’s not going to work for Obama

Well the the other side has been in control for almost 8 years and from Obama’a point of view things aren’t looking good. Why continue the disaster? Put the Rebublioans to sleep.

Is that what I’ve been feeling, Humm.

Guess I’ll have to wait for the debates

The scare tactics are the Repubs modus operandi…used it very well for the last 8 years. Terror! Hee hee! (in typical Bush weaselly fashion…)
