..........ignoring all the polls that indicate poorly for John McCain when he directly attacks Senator Obama, he [Senator McCain] did coin a phrase that not only goes on the attack, but weakens even further the undecided voter support for him.

The most memorable line of the last debate belonged to John McCain. McCain pointed out that “That One” voted for the 05 energy bill. Look for Republicans to note in coming days that “That One” also voted for higher taxes at least 94 times; “That One” has associations with unrepentant terrorists", etc................................. Aside from turning away the undecided voters, his strategy did strengthen the far right wingnut vote; however, things like this also tend to strengthen the "I think I'm voting for Obama, but I'm not sure" voters to lean more towards Obama. Nice job, John! Maybe you could borrow that "Mission Accomplished" banner from Bush?
