And let me add that in a rather surreal twist, McCain is using the same company for his robocalls that Bush used to smear McCain so horribly in 2000.

He’s desperate, and unfortunately, he’s going to ruin his legacy for his ambition.

I wish I could agree with you; but he endorses all of the ads. He has repeated the comments that are inciting fear hatred whenever he is interviewed. The robocalls he also endorses are just mind boggling. What is happening to this country when a platform can be allowed to run on slander, supposition and innuendo?

Also, I wonder if McCain is eating his words when all he blathered about Obama is that he is “the biggest celebrity in the world.” Really? Your own running mate refuses to have interviews (I think she’s had 3 to date) but she’s all about appearing on SNL.

badboy,
you might want to check your “facts”. Sarah is definitely NOT PRO-CHOICE. She doesn’t even believe in abortion in the case of incest or rape.
We all know why McCain chose her. It was only to try and get the “women vote”. I, as an educated woman am completely appalled that this person is trying to represent ALL WOMEN. She’s a crazy bitch with insane beliefs and doesn’t represent ANY woman that I know.
My goodness, her OWN HUSBAND was part of an orgainzation to try and SECEDE from the United States. She just got her passport last year. Yeah, she’s defininitely ready to lead us…Have any of you McCain/Palin supporters actually thought about the consequences if McCain takes a dirt nap? Yeah, you might not like Obama but jebus, at least if something happened to him (I pray it does NOT) at least Biden has a shitload of experience and could easily step up.

@ Bad Boy- um I’m pretty sure she DIDN’T get to where she is on her own, I’m pretty sure she got there because McCain is a blithering idiot who thinks the majority of Americans are dumb as rocks. Which, may be partially true ,however I happen to be insulted by it.

Bill- I honestly think McCain is an honorable fellow whose campaign is running away from him. The Rove/Palin side of the campaign is responsible for the nastiness. I don’t think he likes that this is where things have gone. And I say this as a diehard Obama supporter since before his Senate run. I feel bad for McCain because he looks to be pretty uncomfortable with the direction his campaign has turned.

I think it would have been interesting to see McCain run as an independent, where he didn’t have to pander to the Rove folks. But, he has pandered and his choice of Sarah Palin as VP disqualifies him (in my eyes) as president.

Now, don’t get me started on Sarah P…

Well, there’s a lot about McCain I don’t like, but I do think he’s uncomfortable with all the vitriol coming from some of his supporters. On the other hand, he’s pretty much willing to do anything to become president.

Palin, as I mentioned, doesn’t seem at all uncomfortable with some of the racial undertones of her rallies. And, she too is willing to do anything to become (vice) president.

To JK: I think it was McCain’s way of trying to utilize a photop to show that he is trying to stem the tide of hatred his campaing ads are deliberately creating. If he feels that strongly about it, why does he continue to endorse such ads? Factcheck,org, as well as other reliable sources have already debunked his claims.

I kind of love how she wont do any real, straight forward, factual interviews but she’s willing to go on SNL.

Palin’s turning out to be more of a pop culture figure than she is a respectable, intelligent VP candidate.
