McCain ran an ad that made him out to be the antichrist.

It's going to be bad, but this time four years ago year BO spent a month and a half being questioned repeated for not wearing a fricken flap pin on his lapel - and the "liberal media" obediently treating it like a real issue. He got hammed for Reverand Wright, and a couple weeks before Sarah Palin was annointed a STAR by the media, Obama spent a month being tore down for being a CELEBRITY.

Hill did not play touch football, either.

Mitt has been VERY effective at using his super pac to turn some of the big states he was down in around with a heavy dose of negative ads against whoever was ahead of him out of Santorum and Gingrich, but that has more to do with money than anything. If they had the money they would swamped the air with their attack ads, too.

This is just them balling around cause they can't bully the media like they do with dems. Things are going to change A LOT once Romney (presumably) gets the nomination, but the big thing going on here is that for one brief period, the scumbag, weak kneed "liberal media" has been freed to call the Rs for what they are - lunatics, without even having to do the "but Ds are just as bad" crape.

THAT is the rules of the game Santorum and Gingrich are used to, where they can say and do whatever they want with a compliant media willing to excuse them. In an unrefereed fight where they don't have the the money advantage, they are taking the lumps they like to dish out.
