Liberals On McCain: He Is Descended Of Slave Owners!
Having moved on from pressing issues surrounding the McCain campaign such as dental hygiene, the oh-so-influential liberals over at Daily Kos have decided to take it to McCain over the fact that some of his ancestors owned slaves.
Now I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: These sort of nasty, overtly personal attacks on McCain just aren’t going to work. If you try to beat him by impugning his military record, his citizenship and/or even saying he’s too old you’re going to lose because all those sorts of attacks are going to do is breed sympathy for McCain who, after having served his country honorably and gone through hell at the hands of Vietnamese socialists while doing so, is a very sympathetic figure.
But the ironic thing about this latest attack is that while McCain may be the descendant of slave owners, so is Barack Obama.
