I too wondered if Obama was being a bit lacking in his response to the deluge of attacks by the McCain campaign. However, in light of the poll numbers now that we are in October, it seems likely that Sen. Obama played it exactly right. Even the conservative Charles Krauthammer said:
"You can't blame McCain. In an election in which all the fundamentals are working for the opposition, he feels he has to keep throwing long in order to keep hope alive. Nonetheless, his frenetic improvisation has perversely (for him) framed the rookie challenger Obama favorably as calm, steady and cool.
In the primary campaign, Obama was cool as in hip. Now Obama is cool as in collected. He has the discipline to let slow and steady carry him to victory."
-Charles Krauthammer
This conservative has basically thrown in the towel and called the election in Obama's favor and I'm sure that he is right.
