"A new McCain-Palin Web ad characterizes Obama's proposed refundable tax credits as "welfare." But McCain himself proposes refundable tax credits, too, as part of his health care plan, and calls them "reform."" -- http://www.factcheck.org/elections-2008/obamas_welfare.html More evidence that no matter what Obama says or proposes, the McCain campaign has an attack for it, regardless of whether it either makes sense or contradicts one or more of McCain's own policies.

This is a two way street. both camepaigns do it in one form or another. What disturbing is this isn't the dirtiest presidential campaign ever nor is it the meanest politics has ever been here, so far no one has been shot on the white house lawn and no one has been beaten silly with a can on the floor of the senate. both of these things has happened in the past.
