Unfortunately, too many Obama supporters praised the newsworthiness of the McCain innuendo story and began cropping and posting phony pictures around the net in support of the hit-piece. From my experience, in politics, turn-about is fair play, and McCain supporters will probably jump all over Obama using cocaine and having homosexual sex, saying things along the lines of "where there is smoke, there is usually fire".

Michael, long time.

Unfortunately there are too many fringe radicals that will do or say anything, on both sides. You can't control them. The best we can hope for is that 'the normal majority' ignores the crap and gets to the substance.

In any heartfelt competition of ideas we will all have a tendency to legitimize the assholes extremists on the left or the right. But they should be marginalized and dismissed on both sides.
