Pick an attack, any attack...but stick with it!
I'm beginning to wonder if the McCain campaign even talks with their candidate. They just can't stay on the same page. Earlier today, the campaign ripped Barack Obama for what it said was flip-flopping on telecom immunity:
Today, the U.S. Senate will approve legislation providing the immunity Barack Obama supposedly opposed, and despite his promise, he will not support a filibuster. What Barack Obama will do is show that he's willing to change positions, break campaign commitments and undermine his own words in his quest for higher office.
Meanwhile, at nearly the same exact time, John McCain ripped Barack Obama for for NOT flip-flopping.
My understanding is that he is still opposed to providing that immunity. I strongly support it. ... Senator Obama and I are still in strong disagreement on the issue of immunity for the telecommunications corporations.
My unsolicited political advice to the McCain campaign...make up your minds, folks! If you're gonna' make the flip-flop charge, you had better be able to tell a straight story.
