Of course he's a total hypocrite cause he used to be a Republican examining Bill Clinton's bedroom habits but that is besides the point.
I fear if he attacks Obama and McCain on things like civil liberties, gay marriage, foreign policy, and other issues that resonate with liberals those attacks might resonate with some of the younger new Democrats who Obama has been trying to recruit. Of course all the signs say that overall he will hurt McCain more than Obama, I do wonder if he could do damage in certain key areas/demographics. I could see him being popular with young liberal here in Georgia, but it is pretty hard to imagine him hurting the Dems more than the GOP.
I just saw him on Fox News Sunday and he appeared to be more attacking Obama from the left than attacking McCain from the right. We Democrats want Barr to slam the Republicans on economic fiscal conservatism as much as humanly possible. If he starts doing this, I think we should do our best to make sure he gets seated in as many debates as possible. However if he focuses on attacking Obama with the same concentration that some of these other anti-Obama media outlets have I could see it, at the very least, minimizing the amount that he will act as a spoiler against the Republicans.
I guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens. The Obama slime machines are in such full effect already I just get worries. The media is the only thing that is going to give McCain a chance in hell of winning in November. Fox News has become so apparently anti-Obama that its hard to imagine that even hardcore Republicans haven't noticed and adjusted accordingly. I would be willing to cut off one of my toes if that would make Juan Williams disappear. He drives me even more crazy than Sean Hannity because he actually poses as a neutral objective political analyst.
