WASHINGTON (AP) - Intensified attacks by Republican John McCain on the character of his Democratic opponent have coincided with Barack Obama losing a nine-percentage-point advantage in a national poll, which showed the candidates running dead even over the weekend.McCain, who had vowed to avoid the kind of negative tactics that were used against him in the 2000 Republican primary contest with George W. Bush, began attacking Obama during the Illinois senator's trip to Iraq and Afghanistan late last month.In the course of the McCain offensive, Obama's lead in a Gallup Poll tracking survey slid from nine percentage points on July 26, when he returned from overseas, to nothing by Saturday, when the poll showed the candidates tied at 44 percent.The four-term Arizona senator, who backed the war and claims experience with security and foreign policy issues, charged that Obama's promise to withdraw U.S. forces from Iraq within 16 months of taking office amounted to his having chosen to lose a war to promote his run for the presidency.McCain has not relented even though he took criticism for the remark. read more 1 Comment |
