Obama just needs to remind voters what they will get if McCain can't fulfill his duties for whatever reason: Palin the Incompetent One.
Obama could use the words of many conservatives to call attention to Palin's over her headness. Obama's got lots of money to do so. Oh, the fun that could be had.
But I don't think Obama really needs to call attention to Palin's dimness. It seems most people know, except of course for the diehard conservatives who put abortion over every other issue in the world.
Which leads me to wonder. Who's the real Christian? This is my own variation of the Who is the real American game.
The one who lies and says the opponent consorts with terrorists? The one who abuses her power? The one who mocks community organizers? The one who seems to say and do anything that she's told? The one who insists that some Americans aren't real? The one who encourages people to hate? The one who hears people call Obama a terrorist and doesn't do anything about it? But all that's okay because she is opposed to abortion and gay people getting married. How ridiculous is that. I'm no Bible thumper but it seems to me that Christianity is way of life and I'm not sure that Jesus would be out there on the stump acting like Palin. I'm tired of the hypocrisy.

MSNBC: WASHINGTON - John McCain 's campaign now says it might play the explosive Jeremiah Wright card after all. It makes some sense, strategically. Polls seem to be tightening, and the election is going to be decided by a white, male plumber named Joe.
The question now is this: Will Barack Obama play the Sarah Palin card? It's no longer the risk Democrats once believed. And it might be his best chance to dampen a late-breaking GOP surge.

In his Sunday interview on NBC's "Meet the Press," Colin Powell opened the door to a more aggressive approach towards the Maverick's Sidekick, specifically citing McCain's choice of running mate as a reason to question his fitness for office.
Other Obama surrogates have started beating the drum. "One [presidential candidate] picked one of the strongest candidates for vice president he could have picked," Sen. Claire McCaskill, D-Mo., said at a rally of 100,000 supporters in St. Louis last weekend, referring to Joe Biden. "And, well, the other didn't."
The Democrats' case is simple: If Wright is a crucial issue, then surely McCain's own running mate is even more so. Wright would play no role in an Obama administration. Palin would play one in McCain's; she might even become president.
