McCain...I'll Show You The Chicago Way

If Obama says, "Abramoff", you say Ayers. If he says, 'you have a lot of houses', you say, "Rezko"

Responding to Obama's taunt about not knowing how many homes he owns, Team McCain goes for the balls.

“Does a guy who made more than $4 million last year, just got back from vacation on a private beach in Hawaii and bought his own million-dollar mansion with the help of a convicted felon really want to get into a debate about houses? Does a guy who worries about the price of arugula and thinks regular people ‘cling’ to guns and religion in the face of economic hardship really want to have a debate about who’s in touch with regular Americans?”

As a conservative I know I'm screwed no matter who wins this year, it's just a matter of degree but I'm really starting to enjoy this campaign. And it hasn't really started yet!

Obviously the McCain folks realize just how nasty this campaign is going to get and I imagine that's got to be factoring into the VP selection. I think that's a strike against Lieberman, at least I hope it is. Yeah, Joe will go after Obama on Iraq but will he throw the Rezko/Ayers type dirt?

This is a job for one man and one man only...Bob Dole.

Added below the fold...The Obama ad on this 'controversy'.


It's pretty effective if class warfare is your thing. Of course as Presidents Gore, Kerry and Edwards can tell you, that's a hit and miss tactic which mostly misses.

UPDATE: I should have noted that this statement alone isn't that big of a deal. It simply puts Obama on notice about how this will go. There has to be follow up. That's starting as well. Behold...the GOP's Tony Rezko Fact Sheet.
