Republican John McCain approached the Nashville debate after four straight days of personal attacks on Barack Obama "for his association with an education professor who was once a violent '60s radical," as ABC's Jake Tapper (embargoed link) put it, referring to the Democrat's Chicago neighbor William Ayers. Tapper relayed the McCain campaign's defense of its tactics: "It is not negativity. It is truth telling." The action on the stump did seem a tad negative to NBC's Andrea Mitchell: McCain's "jibes about Obama have increasingly provoked ugly crowd responses."
Wyatt Andrews filed a Reality Check for CBS on the attacks on Obama by McCain and his running mate Sarah Palin. "He voted 94 times for higher taxes"--"misleading" Andrews judged. An ad accusing Obama of disparaging US military forces in Afghanistan uses an abbreviated soundbite "that is just part of what Obama said." When Palin called Ayers "an unrepentant domestic terrorist," Andrews described him as "once a Vietnam War protestor linked to several bombings" who today is "a professor of education."
So will McCain continue those attacks when answering the questions Tom Brokaw selects? His aides told NBC's Mitchell "he will not get personal." "It is tough to launch those kinds of personal attacks…in front of these uncommitted voters, who probably want to talk about issues that matter to them," opined ABC's George Stephanopoulos. On CBS, Bob Schieffer (no link) made the opposite prediction: "He is going to try to make this race a referendum on Obama and his character--and try to get the attention off the economy."
ABC's Tapper told us that the town hall format is "thought to favor McCain." "This is his favorite format," asserted Schieffer. Mitchell agreed. The format "is one McCain likes. Obama in contrast prefers speeches and big rallies."
