Liberals: Can Obama pull off a campaign with no smear tactics?
Looking down from above the 49th, it seems neither side has been immune to them in prior campaigns.

I don't think so. American voters overwhelmingly respond very effectively to negative campaigning, even as they condemn it. The way to do it, therefore, is to engage in it in ways that can never be traced to the candidate his or her self. Hence, the "527" was created (like that Swiftboat Veterans group), acting on behalf of the candidate and undoubtedly with his/her campaign's unofficial involvement and support, but always with a level of plausible denial.
