Try counting how many threads were started in the last 48 hours about Obama's country of birth, eligibility to run for President and bogus lawsuit about his birth certificate.
Reagan Appointee and (Recent) McCain Adviser Charles Fried Supports Obama - The Plank (http://blogs.tnr.com/tnr/blogs/the_plank/archive/2008/10/24/reagan-appointee-and-recent-mccain-adviser-charles-fried-supports-obama.aspx - broken link)
Charles Fried, a professor at Harvard Law School, has long been one of the most important conservative thinkers in the United States. Under President Reagan, he served, with great distinction, as Solicitor General of the United States. Since then, he has been prominently associated with several Republican leaders and candidates, most recently John McCain, for whom he expressed his enthusiastic support in January.
This week, Fried announced that he has voted for Obama-Biden by absentee ballot. In his letter to Trevor Potter, the General Counsel to the McCain-Palin campaign, he asked that his name be removed from the several campaign-related committees on which he serves. In that letter, he said that chief among the reasons for his decision "is the choice of Sarah Palin at a time of deep national crisis."
Fried is exceptionally thoughtful and principled; his vote for Obama is especially noteworthy.
Upton I suspect you can use this again in one of your many persuasive posts.

Then tell me who is panicking.
So true. When I read the OP, my 1st thought was that it seems to me reading all this that the repubs are the ones panicking. Why else would they keep bringing up all these ridiculous accusations??
