American Writer Flees Kenya
Source: http://electionstocks.comPosted on Tuesday, October 7th, 2008 | In Politics & Your Money
According to the LA Times, the writer of a new anti-Obama book titled Obama Nation has either been forced to leave or voluntarily fled Kenya, after flying in to promote the literature and research possible connections Obama has to the leader of Kenya.
This is simply the latest in a new, aggressive campaign by anti-Obama factions to portray him as potentially dangerous.
McCain’s own campaign has been giving issues like Obama’s Chicago connections extra attention in the last few days in a rather desperate attempt to close the gap in the polls. No doubt McCain will confront Obama about these associations at tonight’s debate. Many point out the futility of these kinds of guilty by association claims, but their voices are on the brink of being lost in the midst of this fear mongering.
