McCain Asks Supporters to Show Obama Respect (Heck with this crapola, nail 'em!)

LAKEVILLE, Minn. -- Sen. John McCain spoke out against the growing nastiness his Republican crowds have been demonstrating toward Barack Obama, asking that his presidential rival be treated with respect.

At a town hall meeting Friday afternoon, he took four different opportunities to promise that he will treat the Democratic nominee with respect and to ask the same of his supporters.

Still, his campaign is hardly backing down. On Friday, it released a TV ad linking Sen. Obama to a 1960s radical.

At the town hall meeting, one audience member said that he and his wife are expecting a child next year. "Frankly, we're scared. We're scared of an Obama presidency," the questioner said.

Screw McCain..he actually thinks we are listening to him and voting for him.

He is dragging his chances down like an anchor.

If I was Sara Palin I would be pissed he asked me to take so much flack then he puts up so little effort.

Sorry, he has to earn my respect. Which he has not, yet. I can respect him as a human created by God (one that got through his own partial-birth abortion fingers) but he is a sleazy, lying, conniving piggie at the trough and I do not respect that, no how, no way.

But to get the only good candidate in the race ( Palin ) in office we have to vote for him.

Same here.

That's why "The Great Uniter" is only going to make matters worse in this country.

I didn't like Clinton but he was still the President of the United States to me.

This isn't going to happen with Barack HUSSEIN Obama and I'm sure we are not alone in our feelings.

Exactly! We're not voting for McCain, we're voting against the terrorist supporting socialist pig Obama.

I intend to treat Comrade Zero with all the deference, respect and cooperation the left showed President Bush from day one.

Obama, the guy who told his supporters to “get in their faces” deserves respect. Give me a break.

Don’t you know any one that can NAIL a person and still be a lady or gentleman....?

IMO All Mc Cain has to do is state short facts about each controversy and Obama’s reply/excuses : ACORN, Africa/Cousin,Ayers and then state: “That’s the “A”, We haven’t gotten to the “B” yet .... pause....Obama’s a Chicago Politician. America knows how to use the internet!

Actually it would make a great SNL skit if it weren’t so serious.

Funny, I’m watching Sarah’s speech today in PA and she just mentioned the movie “Slapshot.” If you know the movie, this is just like the scene in the locker room where Paul Newman has finally had it with “clean” hockey and decides to let the Hanson brothers play.

I feel sorry for Sarah, she must be thinking WTF

where did the fighter go instead we have someone who seems to be running scared of obama

remember obama saying the other day that MAC should say it to his face.

well all MAC had to do was say I have been in tougher positions than telling you about your radical racist connection and please show your birth certificate

I just hope MAC wins and after 4 years it goes to Sarah

Why is okay for Congressman John Lewis to make false charges against John McCain?
