Obama and positive campaigns

He argues that candidates should tell us why they are good rather than why their opponents are bad. but this will never work with Obama. He assumes that every thing you say is about him anyway. President Bush said that he would never engage in appeasement and Obama jumped up and essentially said, "Oh, so you are saying I would?" and denounced him for engaging in old and divisive politics. You may as well talk about Obama. Even if you don't he assumes that everything is about him and that everything said about him that is not worshipful praise is improper and divisive. His dignified pouting is a constant.
