Robert Novak Runs Down Obama Supporter

the politico reports that conservative columnist robert novak “was cited by supervise after he hit a pedestrian with his black corvette in downtown washington, d.c., wednesday morning.” the pedestrian who rudely got in novak’s way is attorney david bono, a partner at hawkins cunningham who has given $1,000 to barack obama’s drive. while i understand that the mccain campaign has been having difficulties getting its message loose with the media swooning over and above obama’s overseas trip, i’m not sure that having surrogates brim over over obama partisans is the most productive strategy for winning the choosing, nevertheless it is admittedly better than the ideas they have come up with so far.calling voters whiners and running over the opposition’s supporters with a corvette energy have worked in previous elections, but i don’t imagine they are common to work in this one. using such enduring-fashioned campaign tactics unbiased reinforces the idea that mccain is old times his prime and that he is still fighting the last war in place of of formulating a phantom benefit of the future. and using men be partial to phil gramm and robert novak, single of the insufficient working journalists who is actually older than mccain, although only by a few years, as surrogates upstanding reinforces the clue that a bunch of old men are trying to help mccain get elected.it is unlikely that novak hit bono unintentionally and didn’t realize what he had done since at one witness said bono was “splayed across the front of novak’s convertible,” although it is possible novak didn’t have his reading glasses on. novak’s hit-and-run actually sounds like the brainchild of karl rove, who is advising the mccain campaign. rove and novak last worked together when they attacked the credibility of joe wilson by outting his wife valerie plame as a cia agent. although that operation was largely successful, novak didn’t do as well this immediately. novak failed to get away with it, as he did in the plame operation, because bono ran after him and forced him to stop. and he didn’t even govern to take bono out, which is a life-threatening blow to novak’s reputation as the grim reaper. all in all this proceeding was not a success, although novak did traverse b recover a interfere from the legal system since he could levitra bestellen play a joke on been charged with hit and be used up, just as he escaped serious charges in the plame operation. at least rove is that time apparently able to pull a few strings.but even if this picky detail operation had been a success, i hold to question rove and novak’s judgment. they are going to have to run down a everything of pedestrians to make any dent in support for obama. conceivably they thought running down just one obama partisan would send a memorandum to others that there are consequences payment supporting the wrong applicant. but the the poop indeed that bono emerged with only adolescent injuries isn’t likely to scare shitty scrape together anyone and may in experience embolden the opposition.i am glad that the mccain crusade has manifestly decided that just waiting for obama to make a mistake is not usual to receive the election. at least they are starting to go on the offense preferably of playing defense. but i think they require to come up with cured strategies, such as, and i’m just philosophical below average the top of my head here, offering a useful vision in place of the country.update: an alert reader points out that bono was not actually the sacrificial lamb of novak’s hit and run but was just a witness who stopped novak when he tried
