Maggie's Farm

It's basically the strategy that Harry Reid employed to be re-elected here in Nevada. (Well, more or less--Harry Reid also promoted his power in Washington as an implicit promise that he'd keep bringing more federal dollars to the state.)

The problem for Obama, though, is that while this strategy might work with his base, and while the Democrats are hoping to generate enough voter fraud in some of the swing states, Harry Reid lucked out in getting to run against Sharron Angle who didn't come across well and who it was easy for him to paint as a nut. Obama may try and try to demonize Romney, but the attacks aren't likely to stick, although the lamestream media is doing its best to promote them right now.
