This is true, and I was thinking the same thing yesterday when I got the chance to see Obama talking on television. At the same time I'm sure it was a strategy his staff suggested because what he was doing the day before wasn't working either. You can't just sit there and take shots and always be "above the fight" because instead of looking Presidential the candidate ends up looking weak. That first day after the Republican convention that's what Obama was trying to do, I remember him saying that he wasn't going to get into all of it because he thought we should stay focused on the issues. It took him about 24 hours and 5 polls to alter his position on that.
