Comments on: McCain Sticks Up For Obama At Rally

Is Booed For Calling Democratic Rival A "Decent Person" As Campaign Crowds Get Increasingly Angry

[jclark7613]

I knew that the real McCain would start showing through again. McCain and Obama are great men. Obama is just a better chose for president. What McCain did last night will start returning some of the trust and respect that we had in McCain before these past 4 weeks. He should have never picked Palin. Once people looked past her looks they would she the real low class person she is. A person that wanted Alaska to separate from our great country.

I was fascinated by conservative columnist David Brooks take on "why Republicans are the way they are these days".

It''s a very thought-provoking column, well worth reading. It really explains a lot.

McCain must have Alzheimers

So the Dems are afraid of some redneck doing the unthinkable, and the Repubs are afraid of being bombed by some Obama associate. Both pretty improbable. I think the real fear is that elitism will become chic and racism will become whatever YOU are doing.

4. Ties to radical domestic terrorism - Scary! Obama served on several boards with William Ayers and even launched his political campaign at Ayer''''s house.

Ayers was a civil rights activist/anti-vietnam war student turned radical. He was not convicted of terrorism of any kind by the courts. He''s now working as a Professor at the University of Illinois. Obama didn''t know much about Ayers when he launched his career for state senate. Obama condemmed for what Ayers did 35 years ago.
Fear tactics won''t work this time. Quit distracting us on the real issues: Recession, taxes, Iraq, healthcare, social security ect.

McCain is not Presidential material - in correcting the woman''s statement about Obama being Arab - McCain stated: No, he is a GOOD father & we should show him respect...No mention that Obama was a State Senator 11 years in Illinois and today a US Senator 2 years!
Translated: ARAB FATHERS are NOT GOOD or demand respect...
What do you expect from the 5th from the bottom of the Naval Academy class of 800 cadets!!
Rue the day that the McCain''s paternal & Bush''s dynasty procreated....

Obama has in him %u2014 I think- %u201CWe are the people we have been waiting for%u201D %u2014 the potential to be a good, perhaps even great leader. He is, it seems clear enough, what the historical moment seems to be calling for.

Your posting and that web site are exactly what McCain was complaining about, the attitude among some McCain supporters that goes beyond a difference of option on major issues facing this country to outright hatred and false claims that Obama is an Arab, to calls for ''off with his head''. This is all nonsense!

"He''s an Arab."
Wow.
Now I''m convinced, Republicans are stupid.

Dear Sen McCain,
You have allowed yourself to be proccessed by the neocon machine. As a result, you have become a puppet for their cause and are no longer the man you used to represent. As a one time supporter of yours I am appualled at what you''ve become.

I wonder if Sarah Palin can be charged under the Reckless Endangerment Act. Her behavior is akin to crying fire in a crowded auditorium. As a hockey mom she should realize that there are penalties for bad behavior. On the other hand she may get away with egregious behavior as she has usually done. I predict the spinmeisters will make here troopegate ethics scandal a badge of honor. It was, perhaps, a "mavericky" thing to do.

If McCain sincerely believed these hysterical lies were a problem, he would stop that raving pit bull from stirring people up to believe such nonsense.

michael "these republican rallies are looking more and more like the rallies of the nazi party in pre ww2 Germany "

Thank you. Funny you should say that. I have been thinking exactly the same thing. My mother went to some shortly before the war and she told me all about them - how the leaders got the crowds worked up into a mass hysteria of ugliness.

[luvcomments]

Great political ploy, McCain lol First he and that one - the shameful wife - and that vicious Alaskan thing lie about, smear and throw sleaze at his rival and then, when people get dangerously riled up as a result, he acts like he is honorable or something? Give me a break. He is an infamous cheater, a sham - and he expects people to believe anything he says? Those days are long gone, "my friend".

[actornaught]

When John defended BO, he looked like he could see his candidacy was the hindenburg deflating in flames.

But he looked like he was trying to get back to the guy he was before he roved his soul.

[actornaught]

McPalin, ultimately, have nothing on Ayers, NOTHING, except a stray quote from a about 40 years ago.

And the arab/moslem thing is entirely lies.

That One ''08!

[christiansin]

Here is the link to the full story that shows McCain''s smear of Obama over Bill "a maverick" Ayers just look like the despirate and silly thing that it is.

I can certainly think of worse things to be associated with than Chicago''s "Citizen of the Year" and a well respected professor of education from a well renouned university. Ayers was not convicted of anything 40 long years ago when he was a rebelious "maverick". Keating on the otherhand was.

[christiansin]

Yeah, Bill Ayers used to be a 60''s radical. I guess that makes him a bit of a "maverick."

I think everyone shoul look at this
