(7 comments) National Republicans have set up shop in Denver, hoping to thrust themselves into the media's coverage of the Democratic convention.

Americans Respond to Smears, Not Intellect
(3 comments) Obama had better get down and dirty and not high and lofty. The American public twice elected Bush on down and dirty.

That simple.

The all-too-predictable and familiar right-wing slander machine has begun 'patriot-baiting' on Barak Obama and the Democratic Party candidates. It has already begun and will be a major McCain campaign tactic during this presidential election year.
