What was working for Obama has stopped working and he will have to abandon the "safe" strategy I don't think it's stopped working, I think it's that the Rove/Schmidt people have pulled off a PR stunt that is remarkable in its audacity and short term effectiveness. This Palin thing has indeed fired up their base, and at the right time--remember the line, "You don't start a marketing campaign until after Labor Day." This is the biggest blitz since the '02 we gotta take out Iraq blitz prior to the '02 election, and has so far set the Obama campaign back on its heels just as effectively as that fall surprise set Congressional Democrats back on their heels. When you hear people talking about flipping the R ticket so that Palin is on top and McCain is the VP candidate, you things are completely wacko. And the "pros" over at the other thread can't stop snickering and chortling over what a genius this person is who they had barely heard of two weeks ago. It is ... fascinating.
