Fox News ready to promote Obama's connection to a Chicago Law Firm
The firm? Rezko, Wright, and Ayers of course.

From the very little I have seen on Fox and other right wing outlets the firm of
Rezko, Wright, and Ayers along with the charge that Obama is an anti-American
black radical are the talking points to be used. This time we can not let these lies
stand like the "swiftboating" of a John Kerry did in 2004.

Any ideas on how we fight this crap?

3. The swiftboat machine isn't going to work this time
The people are fired up, ready to go and Obama's campaign is ready for the shitstorm. I have every confidence that the bullshit will be handled with swiftness and their usual grace under pressure.

7. The problem is that "they" work on the repeat the lie over and over method.
I met the man John Kerry pulled out of the river in Vietnam (Bronze Star)
and still certain media outlets sold the lie about Kerry's actions 24/7 and
it really gained some traction.

8. McCain made the strategic error of vowing to run a clean campaign
His only hope was to get down in the gutter with the right-wingers. Now he's going to divide his base because they will disagree with his campaign strategy. :rofl:

5. Oh there will be many attempts
I am sure...the rightists goonies are addicted to personal attack.. even if they have to make it up.. they especially love doing the in your face stuff.. BUT, from what I have read and seen about Senator Obama.. he really does carry a big stick.. he did not turn full guns on Senator Clinton because he can also slice and dice with kindness..but there is a street fighter there..you don't get through Chicago politics without knowing how to take names and tend to buisness.. I do not think that is his preferred means of operation.. and he is trying to move beyond that.. but he will if he is pushed to it, .. there will be no swiftboating without a reply this time.. just how it will be.. is a wait and see procedure...much smoother than the right goonies know how to deal with..

6. actually Rezko balances out Wright and Ayers
Rezko is no radical, he's living the American dream according to the way right wing sees things.
