Well, I guess for undecided voters, this news about McMumble is a bummer. I would have thought Bill McMumble would not remain silent here. But, not even a mumble in an effort to raise the bar. Not a good omen.

BTW, for our Dem lurker friends who can not figure out why GW called North Korea part of an “axis of evil” read posts #11 and #12 on this thread.

Not many blue-haired Floridians will see anything posted on www.jeb.org.

This won't hurt McBride unless it gets out, and possibly not even then. This sort of thing offends us, but we weren't thinking of voting for McBride.

I don't know about that. I think previous elections have proved more and more voters go to the candidate's web site as the election draws closer, and this is right on Gov Bush's campaign home page here.

Also, it seems like the WA Post was going after McMumble for some kind of high road remark:

Even when pressed by the Post about the remarks, McBride refused to condemn or even repudiate them and make clear that he is willing to stand up to the special interests which support him.

Earlier in his campaign I read McMumble actually said things like "Gov Bush is a nice guy, but he's simply wrong on education" -- yet, for a long time now, the operative mode seems to be "attack Jeb." That is a major turn-off to many voters, especially in FL. I think this will all backfire fo McMumble if he continues to support those who blast Gov Bush having the last name "Bush."

BUMP to expose McBride's lack of guts and character.

Once again, another Dim proves Ann Coulter's "Slander" correct.

NAACP chair Rev. Victor Curry.

“Curry could be heard on monitors around the small building saying that he would support ‘a dog’ rather than Jeb Bush. As for President Bush, he ‘should be impeached -- for treason,’” the Post reported. Curry went on to say of the Bush family, “These people are on a neo-Nazi, right-wing mission against the American people.” He concluded calling the Bush administration a “Godless, wicked regime.”

Very impressive for a man of the cloth.

The NAACP was once a fine organization with an impressive mission. Now it's a disgrace and an absolute joke.

Sounds like the Wash ComPost is pushing McBride on this. I can't for the life of me figure why he won't just separate himself from this nut Curry. The black vote is already solidly his - this nonsense won't help McBride at all, IMHO.

Yes, that caught my eye too -- what is going on? Did he get his "rev" title by mailing away some cereal box tops or something???

He, Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton obviously studied theology together.

A Zogby poll shows the race a dead heat. What is the truth

Just asked O'Reilly & FNC to cover this story.....suggest others also ask various media including Drudge & Rush for coverage.

Let's not lose this opportunity to get the word out about this incident.

Here's the Washington Post article detailing Curry's hate-filled rant. You need to scroll down near the bottom, but the author does make fun of McBride saying how he'll be listening to Curry, and then says he heard none of what he said. :-)
