It's all or nothing in the final debate

John McCain has one last chance to expose Barack Obama, and that means going negative during the final debate.

I keep hearing that negative attacks can backfire during the debate. It's true that a risk exists. But it really is all or nothing here, and at this point doing something, even if risky, is far superior to doing nothing.

Here's what needs to happen:

--Repeatedly call attention to the fact that Obama has done nothing to show that he is ready to be president. When he denies it point out that his own vice-presidential nominee said so on tape.

--Contradict Obama on every single policy position he puts forward.

--Associate him with the corrupt Chicago culture.

--Flatly state that this country just can't afford Obama's crippling tax increases on people and businesses in these dire economic times. Say we should be doing the opposite.

--Call his tax cut plan a vote-buying scheme since he gives income tax cuts to non-income tax payers.

--Say that his plans mean defeat in Iraq, and thus should disqualify him as commander in chief (I don't care if its a domestic policy debate).

--An Ayres or Wright bomb should be dropped but only if built into a larger theme ("how can you do X when you couldn't even muster the moral courage to stand up to a terrorist/your racist preacher/Rezco for X years").

--Say that his health care plan will inevitably lead to a government takeover, and it would mortgage the country to China.

--Say he's a rubber stamp for our incompetent/liberal/out of control congressional leaders who caused the financial crisis, with whom he has voted with 97% of the time.

--Explain his involvement with ACORN and Fannie/Freddie and then say that it should disqualify him from handling the economy.

--When speaking about any of the above, use words like "reckless", "naive", and "deeply troubling".
