True, but some nuts are more validly associated with the candidates. While you can't possibly say Anne Coulter, for example has anything to do with McCain, you can definitely say that Bill Ayers at least appears to be a very influential figure in Obama's political life.

I don't know about that. Bill Ayers is a tricky subject, IMO. Yes, unrepentant domestic terrorist, yes. But I don't know that he's had such a huge impact on Obama politically (until now, and to Obama's detriment). It's my understanding that you can't be active in the education "community organizing" game in and around Chicago without coming across and working with Bill Ayers.
