ACORN and Ayers

After reading all of Johm McCain's speeches this week, it is pretty clear that McCain has given up the message of the week approach. McCain's speeched are littered with policy issues that separate him from his opponent. McCain speaks about the housing crisis, health care, experience, the economy, alternative energy and a variety of other subjects in just one speech. In past weeks it has been relatively clear what McCain's message has been for that week, but now it has just come to a rattling off of issues and statements on why he is the better candidate. Fox News is still hocked on the Ayers scandal as well as other sexier topics like the Sarah Palin parody pornography that is set to be released. Fox has also been spending a good amount of time on the ACORN voter fraud scandal. Fox News has been harping on the left wing organization and interviewing real people who were asked to register by an ACORN employee in Ohio. This week McCain has put out advertisements linking Obama to both the Ayers and to the ACORN scandal.
These issues may not be what McCain is specifically talking about in his speeched but they are obviously messages he wants the American people to hear. Fox News is covering both of these events extensively.
