The smears can work when the election is close.
When it's so far off, and we're going thru an economic crisis, McCain will be viewed as desperate as long as the Obama campaign defends itself with vigor and goes after McCain on the economy and on the tactics, and they are, and it should work. It also won't surprise me if Obama gets a little bit dirtier, and goes after Palin being under investigation, etc - that will go a lot farther away then going ridiculous with it and saying Obama associates with terrorists, lol. The Republican campaign is ran by idiots, it reminds me of the people who ran the Kerry campaign in 2004, it's total incompetence and people who are out of touch.
All Obama needs to do is rebuff what they are saying well with facts, and attack on McCain's desperation and the economy, and his lead will grow. In a way, it's too little, too late.
