Obama: McCain is running the sleaziest campaign since South Carolina in 2000.

I, in my frustration, this morning demanded that Obama come off the ropes and start fighting.

Perhaps I should have visited his site before I wrote that post because Obama is way ahead of me and has started to do just that. He has released this statement after McCain's visit to The View:

"Today on "The View," John McCain defended his campaign's latest ad campaign, which has been debunked repeatedly as both false and sleazy. In running the sleaziest campaign since South Carolina in 2000 and standing by completely debunked lies on national television, it's clear that John McCain would rather lose his integrity than lose an election."

He's also released two new ads:





McCain is running the sleaziest campaign since South Carolina in 2000 and he is standing by completely debunked lies on national television. He's a liar and Obama is, at last, calling him a LIAR.

McCain would do and say anything to get elected. He would lose his integrity to win an election and, thank God, at long last, Obama is prepared to say it.

Game on.
