A brief history of Obama going negative
Political Punch
This election cycle's barrage of negative campaigning has gotten a lot of attention lately. This week, Political Punch takes a slightly deeper plunge into the slime.
"All those negative ads don't matter. When you come together, you cannot be stopped," President Obama told supporters at a campaign event in Jacksonville, Florida.
And while it is true that Obama faces a battery of negative ads from independent groups funded by unknown individuals, and it's also true that Mitt Romney is a relentless negative campaigner, the president is not so innocent on this charge, either.
A recent study of a 2-week period ending in July found that about 89 percent of Obama's ads carried an anti-Romney message and 94 percent of Romney's ads an anti-Obama message; 2012 is on pace to become the most negative campaign cycle ever.
But just how far back does Obama's negative campaigning go? And how down and dirty were the ads of 2008 compared with today's? Check out this week's Political Punch to find out.

The irony being that Romney cant either. His biggest achievement, Romneycare, is a hullabaloo with the republican base. Both sides will attack each other but the GOP will have to go about it in a smarter way. The american voter is a low attention span ignorant slob, if Romney comes out with a foreign policy attack, Obama counters with "OBL died under MY watch". If they say he is weak on defense, the DNC counter with "Iraq ended successfully under Obamas watch. Obama drops hellfires on more terrorist than even Bush did". Its the best political drama ever. Just enough truth to pass a casual glance and nothing outrageously false enough to base a retaliatory campaign on.Originally Posted by C.Puffs
If they GOP can successfully bulldoze the DNC efforts on Defense and foreign policy, they are really kinda hurting as those are historically the Republicans strong suits. If it comes down to a domestic issues war, its gonna be a he said she said event with the GOP calling the other side panderers and the DNC calling the republicans obstructionist.
Sure he can. His financial background and experience certainly trumps Obama's. And given that the economy is #1 in most people's minds he should emphisize the differences between the two in that area.

I guess he can teach us a lot about storing money offshore
And that's bad because. . .^^

Silly bloody game, don't you think?
Instead of looking stupid, have you bothered to read where Romneys money is invested? or just accepted pavlovian talking points?^^

How many more Anti obama threads is going to be posted .. .. If any of you think you could do better then why are you not running for a political seat or do you not believe you have the ability to lead a nation do what is right for your fellow America ? .
Or you just one of those people that like to moan yet happy to have paycheck and live your life .. as it is ..
As many as we choose to make TT
You ran for Prime Minister of the UK, when again?
The more threads the better as they only make the argument more "rational," "unbiased," and "persuasive." They are not anti-Obama, but critics of him who are helping him.
Just like those anti Bush McCain and Palin and Romney threads are right?
If you get raped, I would consider that a crime.
Good rebuttal, well thought out as always did you get that from Attack watch, or the regular campaign?
