As far as your questions goes. Of course I don't think he is a terrorist. As far as the republicans bringing it up now, of course it is a desperation play. It is very late in the game to be playing the muck game. But really what does McCain have to lose? I can't believe that it has taken so long to bring this up. I would have thought that Hilary would have touched on the subject a long time ago. Maybe it really is a non issue, or the media would have been all over right? Or is it just the liberal press. I think it is a little of both.
Bottom line is that people want a change. They see McCain being a republican and link him to GW (Obama has done a good job constantly linking the two). Obviously it is Obama's race to lose, but stranger things have happened and nothing would suprise me when Washington is involved.

Just as a relevant aside on theose sixties...

During the revolt/revolution/liberation heady days of the sixties, for some, it was like joining a club ...

--Only this club went against all most people's parents were for, and many traditions ...

It was new, exciting, full of questions, and MUCH beneficial came out of it, some of which we enjoy today ...

Though I shared a belief for change and improvement, and also LIKED where I lived, I did not join those clubs, though many people I knew did ...

I never bought into a violent revolution, but some did---as in the Chicago 7 ...

My boyfriend at the time, was a musician, film student and successful conscientious objecter .... Somewhat later he became a Jehovah's Witness, and now he is a conservative Republican, lover of George Bush ...

My association with him reflects none of the above ... And my current association with him is based on who he is today---a nice, bald, fat conservative Republican ...

I would suspect many of the Club revolutionaries and hippies I knew would be singularly embarrassed by their previous karmas ... The ex is not---he is somewhat the same guy, but with different values ...

I am confounded by Ayers' contemporary comments, but I feel that if he were a current threat to society, he would have been called out ...

Obama's associations with him were in today's educational arena working under the Annenberg umbrella under which there are Republican connections as well...
