Again, if McCain continues down the path he has now chosen, he will turn even those states that are not quite in Obama’s pocket into Obama territory. The public is sick of the name-calling and divisiveness; they want answers. To many, McCain’s actions indicate he has slipped off that pedestal upon which many had placed him.

McCain’s strategy has become one of fear, fear, fear.
