Bill Ayers Issue A 2-1 Loser For McCain

This poll from Rasmussen shows how bad of an issue Ayers has been for McCain:

Just 28% of voters believe that John McCain’s campaign has been helped by talking about the relationship between Barack Obama and William Ayers. A Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey found that 50% believe talk of that issue has hurt McCain’s effort while 15% say it has had no impact.

The day of effective right-wing smear tactics is coming to an end.
