For the second time in as many days, Sen. John McCain was forced to rebuke members of his own party for over-the-top attacks on Democratic rival, Sen. Barack Obama.

Now he’s using the demorat word. “Uncomfortable”. Well I am uncomforable with him and will not vote for him.
So you can just STFU Johnny, and let the real men point out what a load of crap B. Hussein Obama is!
|I'm going to vote for Huckabee, just so we can go to a brokered convention.
Nope, DUNCAN HUNTER IS THE ONLY ONE!!!!
What a loser this guy is. He spends more time going after his own people than our political enemies. But it is John McCain. This is what he does. What a goober.
The GOP gets exactly what it deserves with McCain.
Why should anyone stop telling information about Obama that’s true?
As long as it’s true, who cares? Who’s to decide whether it’s inappropriate.
Wait until McCain sees what he gets hit with.
My friends, please don’t attack...my friends.
Heck....WHY ARE WE EVEN HAVING AN ELECTION?.....lol
He is not running for Rush Limbaugh's job. He is running to be President of the USA. This means he will be the President of many people who did not vote for him.
When has common courtesy become a liability?
At McCain will be respected by the Press,,,,and will receive effusive praise at the inauguration next January of President B. Hussein Obama.
We'll all be able to take a lot of pride (along with the MSM and all democrats) in how civil he ran his campaign and how the country benefited by him taking the 'high road'. /s
I do believe that there is NO legal obligation for any delegate to cast their nominating ballot for John McCain at the national convention, even if he carried their state or arrived at the convention "winning" the number of delegates for nomination.
Of course, there would have to be good cause for them to consider this. (If I am wrong about this, I'm sure someone will let me know and provide me with info on where I am wrong).
I believe delegates have this freedom in case the presumptive nominee is discovered to be insane or otherwise unnacceptable as the GOP presidential nominee.
The way McCain is going, poking his finger in the eyes of conservative talk show hosts and state GOP party establishments, while at the same time praising his opponents, there may well be a serious grass roots and state GOP party level revolt against McCain in full swing come convention time, trying to get the delegates to not formally nominate McCain.
Of course, there is also a possibility of McCain having a very public psychotic episode (hopefully before the convention), that is picked up widely (at least by talk radio and the internet). That in itself would give the delegates enough reasons to not cast their nominating ballots for McCain.
Of course, that would leave us with the problem of who would step up and offer themselves as an alternate to McCain at the convention, should a majority of the delegates be in a mood to deny McCain the nomination.
McCain has to be senile. He thinks he’s carving out some bipartisan legislation, something like the McCain-Obama Screw the Conservatives bill. Someone needs to FORCE him to understand that he is running for president and only one person can win and the other person will lose and there will not ever ever ever be any consensus across the aisle, just a winner and a loser, and, most assuredly, he will be the loser.
Somebody wake gramps up.
I can’t stand McCain, but I have to wonder if this isn’t a good strategy. Let others release damning info that probably wouldn’t make the media, and then have McCain draw attention to the material by loudly condemning it.
People, low-level politics aren’t going to win this race. I think that Senator Obama’s incredibly naive approach and barren resume speaks for themselves. We don’t need to stoop to a low-level approach of getting a photo of someone in an unflattering pose and make fun of them for it. The same goes for those who make fun of someone because of their middle name. I would suspect that Obama isn’t particularly proud of his middle name.
Senator McCain is right to take this approach and it’s foolish to encourage a 6th grade insult mentality.
Good point - and he was "disappointed" in the NY Times. Next thing you know, he's going to be "feeling your pain."
