McCain is done. He's embarassing himself. Either the Republican party is trying to handoff this country's problems to the Democrats, or McCain is running for the Mr. Rogers award.

:lol: Maybe super mom Sarah Palin could knit him a sweater.

 

It is unnatural for McCain not to be angry. Our economy is collapsing and Obama's supporters are engaging in widespread voter registration fraud. If our next president is going to lead us further down the path of socialism, the least McCain can do is to go down fighting. If he was not up to the challenge then he should not have accepted the nomination.

"He's an Arab" ?

 

How stupid are these people?

I agree. Them and the "he's too old" McCain haters are indeed stupid.

I saw the clips of McCain trying to calm some angry attendees of a campaign stop. I must go on record that I do like that he at least tried to "set the record straight" on the issue of Obama's religion, and that there was no reason to fear Obama. Now, granted, his campaign pretty much capitalized on ramping up that fear, but I did respect that he called Obama a decent man, and one he (McCain) respected for his accomplishments, etc.

 

If McCain could "turn around" the rhetoric, muzzle Palin's attacks, could he see a bounce back?

I thought the same thing when I saw him do this. He should be applauded for doing so.

Agreed. I would rather see him take the high road; although not a lot of folks seem to agree.

Yes...now THAT is a sad commentary on the state of things.

I agree with your take on this............all of the garbage spewed from the republicans have this republican leaning voting democratic in this race.

Now, before someone comes on here and gives you a hard time for changing your mind on the basis of something so inconsequential as being lumped in with a bunch of fearmongers; remember that there is some evidence that Sen. McCain is trying to do the right thing.

 

Vote with your heart and your head.:thumb:

 

This advice brought to you by mcpapa, resident liberal and (so far) the person on BGP who "agrees with Obama the most."

When McCain said Obama was someone we shouldn't fear to have as president (I'm paraphrasing), I was highly upset at him. He may as well have just said, "Hey, vote for Obama, I am." As a McCain supporter, I was just flabbergasted that he would say something that to me sounds like throwing in the towel. I coach my sons youth football team. One of the things I am constantly preaching to the boys is to play 'til the whistle blows. "Well, Senator McCain, play 'til the whistle blows. Don't let up. If you lose, you lose. But don't stop until the end!"

I just saw the footage myself and I am absolutely PROUD of how McCain responded to the woman directly in front him who said that Obama was an "arab," along with the other comments he made.

 

This man has shown that, no matter what, he won't sell his soul to get elected.

 

Obama acknowledged McCain's statements today at one of his rallies, commending him.

No!! It's way to late. Obama wins this thing easily.

I agree, both of these men love the USA and both are good men, but they just have different ways of fixing our problems...

 

I hate the negative crap, stick to the issues...
