"Bush campaign ads using team"

Bleh

For Senator Edwards to insist the the opposition stop with attack ads is ludicrous: free speech. If the attacks are vile enough, they will backfire on the attackers. If they are based on truth -- and whose version of "the truth" is more believable -- then the Kerry and Edwards campaign has some months to craft a solid counter message, one that takes the attack, rolls it up, and pokes it in the eye of the Bush-Cheney campaign. Senator Edwards would impress us all and score MUCHO POINTS for his team if he expended the energy to craft a smart, incisive and even witty counter. He's a trial lawyer, eh? I'd guess he is sharp enough. (Hmmm, see Belosi on the alleged sharpness of many lawyers. Outrage) "He can't say that" is a weak counter to a verbal sally in a society based on free speech. How about a counter from a slightly higher angle, Senator? We know you have it in you.

The campaign probably won't wait a few months because that would be seen by some people as them accepting the ads, so Edwards says his bit to show that they don't. This response does that, whether there's a smarter comeback he could have used is something I don't know.

The matter of dealing with facts, plans, visions, details and issues seems to be as foreign to both campaigns as shopping lists written in Sanskrit. It's a finger pointing match, at present. *barf*

No kidding.
