Irrelevance

This line from Victor Davis Hanson perfectly sums up the strategy of the Obama campaign:

Forget about America borrowing $5 trillion in three years; worry instead about a dog on a car roof three decades ago.

And as VDH points out, the non-vetting of Obama by the MSM in 2008 -- as evidenced by the whole composite-gate story in which it was revealed that virtually no one in the press had even read through Dreams From My Father -- may help Romney quite a bit in 2012.
