Chris Wallace starts FOX News Sunday off by asking Holy Joe why McCain attacking Obama’s character so vehemently now. are was a time when McCain was above all that.

Wallace: Gov. Palin did just that yesterday. Let’s take a look.(Palin. Obama pals around with terrorists) Sen Lieberman, is all that fair game, an attack on Barack Obama’s character?

Lieberman: Well it is fair game. & I want to get back to that in a minute. a McCain campaign hasn’t announced that it’s going to spend a next four weeks an negative campaigning….

Wallace: Senator, Senator, if I may on a front page of a Washington Post & a NY Times yesterday, a top McCain strategist, his name Greg Strimple was quoted as saying we want to turn a page on a economy & start talking about Obama being & out & out liberal, we want to talk about his character, so a McCain is on a record as saying exactly that.

Lieberman: Well I must say I don’t know Greg, but I do know John McCain…

Spin it Joe. a McCain campaign did announce it. McCain is desperate & has resorted to a Sean Hannity school of politics. That’s not anything really much different than ay’ve been doing anyway. Let’s take a stroll down memory lane when John McCain said he would run a respectful campaign:

“It is critical, as we prepare to face off with whomever a Democrats select as air nominee, that we all follow John’s lead & run a respectful campaign focused on a issues & values that are important to a American people,” Davis wrote. “Throughout a primary election we saw John McCain reject a type of politics that degrade our civics, & this will not change as he prepares to run head-to-head against a Democratic nominee.”

a Nation:

Added Cindy McCain in May: “What you’re going to see is a great debate. Which is what a American public deserves. None of this negative stuff, though. You won’t see it come out of our side at all.
