The fear & smear campaign against Obama is wonderfully collected spoofed by Jon Swift at http://jonswift.blogspot.com/2008/10/great-moments-in-election-year-blogging.html
Some of the comments there make one realise just how humourless these neocons really are (and how irony deficient!).

Thanks.
That looks like a comprehensive collection of nasty right-wing attacks.
I haven’t followed much of that squabbling myself. Jon Swift clearly has though.
