McCain lost his spine. Since when is it wrong to call someone by their full name?
This campaign is ridiculous. McCain almost deserves to lose.

Here is my question...is he going to oppose the use of it on the general election ballot? Because it will be there. Will McCain then stand up for that as well?
RIDICULOUS. Who is running this dog and pony show? This man is asleep. Free Republic is running a better campaign for McCain than McCain is himself.

If you're gonna do this, at least put some salt on it.
Say something like "It's inappropriate to use O'bama's middle name, since he is so ashamed of it."

The McCain committee could say long, loud, and often that they won’t use Obama’s middle name Hussein Hussein Hussein even though Barack and Obama are also Arab names.

I couldn’t help think that McCain really believes he is winning this thing with his ego...I mean the way he was flipping his microphone over to his other hand when he would get a jab in reminded me of some Steve Perry move from Journey after he finished a verse but it looked so out of place.

Newsday was the journalistic sluiceway that Sen. Howard Metzenbaum used to leak Anita Hill's accusations against Clarence Thomas, which were detailed in confidential FBI "raw intelligence" files that couldn't be shared or published, so that Sens. Metzenbaum, Kennedy, and Biden could bring them up for public discussion and turn the Thomas confirmation hearings into a circus.
Classy rag, and such high standards of deportment for U.S. Senators.

It’s uncommon to use middle names, except for serial killers. what’s the point? There are plenty of terrific reasons not to vote for Obama; his middle name isn’t one of them.

This is almost a parody - one pundit (Mark Steyn) predicted this exact behavior from the McCain Campaign. What’s wrong with mentioning the man’s middle name?

He does deserve to lose and he will.
Sad, but I'm afraid that is the reality - McCain does not seem to understand that you fight to win - and not to lose.

Hey, no problem. I have a better middle name for Osamabama, but it will get me banned. But I suggest Barack “That One” Obama.

One of the best ways to call attention
to something is to ban its use.

Fine. You feel that way. However, let me point out the public relations error on McCain’s part here. Making it an issue period and talking about it is STUPID. If someone wants to mention his name...let them. Let Obama make an issue out of people using his middle name...let him be the one who has a problem with it.
Problem is re-directed back onto himself having an issue with his name.
McCain is going in reverse. Total idiots are running his campaign into the ground quicker than a car from an airplane.
