Perhaps compared to talking about Wright Obama would prefer to talk about issues, but I don’t think issues are his strong suit. He’s far to the left of most Americans, and instead it makes a lot more for him to run on charisma and very ephemeral and ulitmately dishonest overtures to centrism. McCain knows what he’s doing by saying he wants the general election to be about issues. Obama’s jesusness has worn off to all but the most faithful and now it gets back to fact that he wants strong unions, weakness in foreign policy, unsustainable increases in taxation and spending. I think if most Americans look past the cosmetics of the race right now, they’ll find they’re much closer to McCain on issues than they are to Obie.
