At last, at last, Obama's connection to the domestic terrorist, William Ayers, along with other unsavory connections, is going to be brought to light. Will the people care? I don't know. I hope so. They should.
What other major presidential candidate in history has anything in his background to compare with having launched his political career in the home of a terrorist who bombed government buildings? If this were the plot of a political novel, people would put down the book and say it was too silly to continue. Yet here we are, with Obama ahead by eight points. Despite Ayers, despite a mentor that was a communist spy, despite mentor Jeremiah Wright, despite convicted felon Tony Rezko, and so on. Is it because not enough people know? Or do they not care? We'll soon find out, if McCain will just make the case.
Don't buy the Democrat line about how this is all just "guilt by association". This is not an incidental relationship. This is a pattern of choices that speaks to the worldview of Barack Obama.
