No. I expect the Candidates to continue to stay away from that one, it certainly will have an absolutely disastrous affect on Senator McCain's base...not so sure how the Dem's would play it, but their candidate has proven he can handle the hot topics fire much better. Senator McCain simply would not have enough time to put that one out.
I think McCain will mention Ayers because his supporters have told him too. He is in a pickle. He has to mention because he told his fans he would, but if he does, Obama is going to be like, "So, I put country first and served on a board with a college professor to help improve education in the city of Chicago, and you guys make it a big deal for him setting M80s off in a toilet when I was 8."
I think it's pathetic that neither will touch the issue. if they try amnesty again, incumbents will lose their jobs. I think they need start fining the hell out of companies that hire them, and cut off services to illegals. then the problem fixes itself. they just go home. hell, if we required a social security card for WIC benefits, I bet you thousands would be gone.

With the economy in the toilet, many of the illegals will be returning to their homeland. At the very least, fewer will be crossing the border. I guess that's the upside of the recent financial crisis.
For McCain: Describe, in 25 words or less, *exactly* what 'winning in Iraq' means.
For Obama: Describe, in 25 words or less, *exactly* what type of outsourced jobs can and will be returned to US soil.
For Moderator Bob S: "Gentlemen, your chairs are wired to emit a loud and vibrating buzz to your butts if you exceed 25 words. Use contractions where possible."

In light of the Timmon's news, I'm betting Senator McCain wishes they had just ran a different sort of campaign....this Guilt by Association, Blood in the Water politics never helps the candidate in Senator McCain's position and Governor Palin can't help...she's dynamite in the freezer at this point....your supporters shouldn't dictate the terms of your campaign's discussion, clearly Senator McCain has lost the lid to Pandora's Box.
