Just When You Thought You've Seen It All

Dateline Ohio - part of the Heartland of America. And why is a Republican candidate being attacked by his Democratic opponent?

Well, that would be because he had the audacity to fulfill his obligation to the Marines ... in Iraq. Oh and did I leave out, he's a Jew? You see, this Jewish fellow was serving Bushitlet in uniform in Iraq, NOT the American people, according to his opponent. Welcome to the would be Progressive Majority folks. Why don't Soros and his MoveOn-like crew just buy the place outright, as the government sure could use the cash? Ugh.

Of all the factors he weighed, Mr. Mandel says political concerns were not among them. Now he has been forced to deal with the politics of that decision. The opponent in his tough re-election fight, trial attorney Bob Belovich, is attacking Mr. Mandel’s service, arguing that he abandoned voters. Mr. Belovich’s wife, Barbara, acknowledged in an interview for this column that she has told voters that Mr. Mandel “went AWOL” (a military term for desertion) by fighting in Iraq.

Belovich stated that many people think Mandel is a Democrat, including some who think so because Mr. Mandel is Jewish. Belovich, who is Catholic, then spent five minutes discussing the implications of Mr. Mandel being Jewish. (The district’s Catholic population is three to four times bigger than its Jewish one.)

Basically, almost every attack on McCain/Palin by the liberal/Dem brain trust in this country has been as lame or lamer than the one above. Let's compare a few (many of you have better memories than I so feel free to add):
-Obama is a Marxist vs Palin spent too much on clothes.
-Every publicly revealed friend or associate of Obama prior to about 2002 has been shown to been an extreme anti-American leftist radical vs McCain's wife is rich.
-The Obama campaign seems to be hiding illegal contributions, foreign and domestic, vs McCain is too old (from the same people who brought you the "old people should be in an affirmative action class" meme)
-Obama worked for, helped support, and praised what seems to be a criminal election registration enterprise vs McCain wants to give tax breaks to big oil companies to encourage oil/gas production. Duh.
-Obama expresses and seems to be convinced of the idea that America is a terrible country and must be completely remade vs McCain = Bush.

George Bush and the GOP have destroyed the U.S economy and turned the rest of world against us.

John McCain voted with George Bush 90% of the time.

I wonder shy???

The fact that John McCain is essentially George Bush's older, angrier brother is why he's getting his ass kicked. 8 years of miserable failure is quite enough.

No way that McCain is anything like Bush. First of all, McCain fights for what he believes in and doesn't watch the polls like both BO and GWB do.

The more I examine BO the more BO looks like another closet GWB to me only with a more socialist left agenda.

What really is pissing me off is that the NRCC is "making an exit strategy" in campaigns with incumbent conservative leaning republican senators and, they are blaming it on the campaign laws saying that they have to use an independent body to make these decisiions. And, guess what? They wouldn't tell Michelle Malkin who is on this "committee".

What the heck is happening to the Republican party?
