Like Dubya
By Michael J.W. Stickings
John McCain declared in the debate the other night that he is not George Bush (and that Obama "should have run four years ago"). It was a fairly effective one-liner, but Obama's substantive, fact-based response was even more effective: "So the fact of the matter is that if I occasionally have mistaken your policies for George Bush's policies, it's because on the core economic issues that matter to the American people, on tax policy, on energy policy, on spending priorities, you have been a vigorous supporter of President Bush."
And this excellent new Obama ad, first aired the morning after, gets right to the heart of the matter.

Of course the Republicans will claim that this is an "attack ad" and that the Demorats' use of facts justifies their use of lies about Obama's connection to terrorism.
