Campaign Filth

This is certainly a classic case of projection:


Sen. Barack Obama's national press secretary, Bill Burton, accused Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) of "cynically running the sleaziest and least honorable campaign in modern presidential campaign history. His discredited ads with disgusting lies are running all over the country today. He runs a campaign not worthy of the office he is seeking."


And why do politicians shade the truth? Because it works.

With Obama, the filth isn't so much coming directly from him as it is from his cadre of bloggers who know no bounds of decency, as witnessed by their treatment of Sarah Palin. So if Obama doesn't engage in filth, he has third parties to do his dirty work for him.
