"Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together... mass hysteria!"

I find it ironic that the most notorious political consultant in the history of the United States who raised the bar on negative campaigning would be the one who speaks out about his own party’s presidential candidate crossing the line in his recent attack advertisements. In a recent CNN article, Karl Rove assessed the most recent John McCain advertisements as going “…one step too far”. The entire article addresses the recent quote by Karl Rove, the negative campaigning done by both Democrat and Republican parties during this election year, and the current campaign donations received in the month of August. These funds insure that the smear campaigns and mudslinging will continue until the polls are closed in early November.
