In one of John McCain's ads against Obama he claims Obama is for deficit spending. In another ad McCain claims Obama is responsible for the high gas prices. Once again the republican propaganda machine is at it. They are blaming the democrats for what they are responsible for particularly McCain's buddy George W. Bush. He is the king of deficit spending which they have defended time and time again. Between Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush and Bush Junior they are responsible for most of the national debt. Only under the democrat Bill Clinton did the national debt go down.

A lie, as we saw with John Kerry, no matter how ridiculous, when repeated often enough and poorly refuted, becomes accepted as fact in the minds of many voters.

Obama has raised tons of money but I haven't seen it used much. Obama you can't wait until the last week of the election to undo the damage from McCain's ads. Obama has to hit back and hit back hard. The harder you hit back without being nasty like the republicans the more people will see you as a leader. Fail to stand up for yourself and they won't see how you'll stand up for them.
