John McCain and Sarah Palin had tried to overcome sliding poll numbers by inserting hate filled rhetoric during campaign rallies last week, but the latest Washington Post/ABC News poll indicates that the hate rhetoric backfired on McCain and Palin.
It found that 59 percent of Americans accused McCain of negative campaigning, while 35 percent said McCain is addressing the issues. A staggering number.
The same Washington Post/ABC News poll also indicates that Obama is pulling away from McCain, establishing a 10-point lead in the race for the White House by a commanding 53 percent to 43 percent.
The most recent state by state polls from the Conservative Right Side Examiner site indicate similar findings as the nationwide polls.
Comedy Central's Indecision 2008 blog comes to a similar conclusion with this funny title:"John McCain's Negative Attack Campaign Against Self Working Brilliantly."Alabama - McCain Leads

Remember when integrity was important?
Its that time again. Its time to show up, tell the truth and believe everything will turn out OK.
When Obama says if nominated he will take public financing as part of his effort to become the President of the United States, do you think its important to believe what Obama says?
When Obama said after being nominated that he will not take public financing for his presidential campaign, do you think its important to believe what Obama says?
When Obama says when he is president he will sit down personally with leaders of rouge nations with no preconditions, do you think its important that we believe what Obama says?
When questioned immediately on the precondition point and Obama says two more times he would sit down with these rouge nation leaders and then gives an explanation for why these meeting are important and appropriate, do you think its important the we believe what Obama says?
Days later when Obama says he didn't say he would meet without preconditions, do you think its important the we believe what Obama says?
When Obama says he would no sooner disavow Rev Wright than disavow ...., do you think its important to believe what Obama says?
Days later when Obama says he is disavowing Rev Wright, do you think its important to believe what Obama says?
When Obama says that he knows William Ayers, he's a person in our neighborhood and his children go to the same school, but we do not talk with each other, do you think its important that we believe what Obama says?
When documents and videos show that Obama and William Ayers worked together for years, do you think its important that we believe what Obama says or the documents and videos?
When you apply for a job or loan it is common practice to fill out questionaries that commonly ask for information from your past. Why is how we conducted ourselves in the past so important? I think we all know the answer to that, because we tend to do what we have done in the past. People trying to predict our future behavior have found that our past is a good indicator of how we will do in the future.
Take a look at Obama's recorded past, not the he said she said stuff in the news, his recorded past. Is there a consistent pattern of behavior?
Rev Jermiah Wright 20 years association
Father Pfleger 20+ years association
Bill Ayers 10+ years association
Luis Farrakan 10+ years association
Tony Rezko 15+ years association
ACORN 15+ years association
Sure can't confuse these people and organizations with being elite.
How would you describe those guys?
Obama describes them as friends. Nice
How does Obama describe ACORN?
Employer, recipient of $800,000 of Obama presidential campaign funds through a front organization, CSI, in Ohio that has the same board of directors as ACORN.
Obama gave a speech on how important words are. Was he trying to tell us something we should know or something we should know about him?
We are considering having Obama speak for us, do you think its important that we believe what Obama says?
Jim
Interesting rant. But guess who's pictured here with ACORN?
(Hint: It's not Obama...)

Jim, your post contained so many lies I can only assume you lifted it from a Palin website.
I mean, I know you are paid by McCain but at least make it a little less obvious. Come on.
if you want to play the game of guilt by association, why not bring up Palin's alaskan secession group? or mccain's own rick davis while all eyes on the economy?
wow jim...have you ever tried finding facts and information yourself instead of being spoon fed your views?
Hey Jim, just because you post a wall of text doesn't mean it's true.
If you can not get the facts right at least get the spelling right.
It is rogue not rouge
It is rogue not rouge
No, I think he really meant rouge. Meeting with tarted-up countries is bad for America's image on the global stage. Demand they cut back on their makeup use, no matter who you vote for.
Hey Jim, Sarah Palin might like to use that in her next speech, throwing more dirt even when it's sticking so well to mindless puppets like you. Sure, you might be a great person (I don't know you personally), but you definitely don't know your facts in this case.
Modifying your much repeated question:
When Jim sounds like Sarah Palin, do you think it's important to believe what Jim says? (or what Palin says, for that matter?)
Which reminds me, get your punctuation right, "it's" not "its". I know it's pedantic, but surely you're an educated person?
Scott, invading a country that did not attack us against the wishes of most of the world, Holding human beings captive indefinitely for years without trying them, and violating the Geneva Convention by using torture are far worse for America's image than diplomatic meetings.
It is amazing the party that preaches personal responsibility never applies any to America's hypocritical foreign policy. We spend insane amounts of money on military spending for never ending war games and occupations without even Osama Bid Laden's head to show for it.
Jim, we can play guilt by associations all day with Palin and McCain. Remember the Keating 5 would only be the Keating 4 without John McCain. This banking scandal cost U.S. tax payers billions of dollars and can be directly related to the current Wall St crisis.
McCain has used much leverage to secure land deals for rich contributors over the years. McCain has been endorsed by several religious nut jobs. McCain and convict G. Gordon Liddy's relationship is much closer than Obama and Ayers. It is far more relevant.
Palin has her own crazy preacher, a criminal rape stance and direct ties to an anti America Alaska group. You want to call Obama a liar because he changed his mind on campaign money then you must apply this to John McCain.
He has changed his mind on every issue. Palin hates telling the truth about her RECORD and just ignores reality!The lies are too long and numerous to detail in this comment. Her latest lie of making up a different result for the Alaskan report that found her guilty of abuse of power is very troubling.
Also, never bring up "integrity" when you supported these bums who have gutted our constitution, corrupted our Justice Department, gashed the agencies designed to protect Americans, and were intentionally dishonest to its citizen's about the Iraq war which has directly to millions of death.
You want to bring up integrity after you cheered on Bush for the past 8 years? Give me a break.
Next you will call Democrats Socialist even though your Dear Leader GW bush just nationalized the banking system.

Alaskan Paper calls out Palin's lies. Ayers is far more important than abuse of power from the possible VP.
McBush truly is an idiot. He really thought the Sheeple were "stoopid" and would believe whatever lies he told! Guess what McBush, the people are not stupid and you lose!
