Personal Attacks, a Republican Trademark

Weeks after the Republican National Convention that showcased VP candidate Governor Palin, her absence from the news media and her debate with Senator Joe Biden have given the American people a chance to digest what McCain-Palin stand for.  How have the people responded?  They have pushed the Obama-Biden ticket to the top of the polls with Obama-Biden leading in most so called battleground states.
 
So now both McCain and Palin are doing what define Republicans best: personal attacks against their opponent. As I have written before, Republicans can not articulate where they stand on the issues, so they turn to vile personal attacks.  
 
Obama is and will continue to handle the trash talk better than John Kerry did in the 2004 election against his Bush.  Every time McCain-Palin open their mouth the American people get a preview of just how radical they really are.
 
Their personal attacks are a sign of weakness and a inability to be civil at a time when our country and its people face serious problems.  Contrary to their campaign logo, McCain-Palin are not putting America first.  The American people must beware of those who are desperate to win.
