The election has boiled down to this, in my opinion: Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt (F.U.D.) versus Hope.
The McCain/Palin campaign and right wingers sling the F.U.D. better than anyone. Remember, when you go to the polls next Tuesday that Barack is: black, an Arab, a Muslim, a terrorist, a friend of terrorists, a communist, a socialist, [...]
