His supporters hate him for trailing in the polls and he’s heading downward with every new one. His campaign people apparently have no clue how to fix this, so rather than have him do things that boost his image, help people understand why they should vote for him, etc, they have him doing and saying things to ensure he is disliked more. Why?
McCain calls Obama ‘decent person,’ is booed
McCain sort of can’t win here.
Parnes reports from Minnesota: A man in the audience stood up and told McCain he’s “scared” of an Obama presidency and who he’d select for the Supreme Court. “I have to tell you. Sen. Obama is a decent person and a person you don’t have to be scared of as president of the United States,” McCain said as the crowd booed and shouted “Come on, John!”
“If I didn’t think I’d be a heck of a lot better, I wouldn’t be running for president of the united states.”
If it’s not the Times editorial board jeering him, it’s his own crowd.
ALSO: Whoa:
A woman at the town hall asks softly: “I’ve heard that Sen. Obama is an Arab.”
McCain quickly cuts the woman off. “No, maam. He’s a decent family man and citizen,” McCain says. “He’s not. Thank you.”
NOTE: Some reports from the ground said the woman used the word “terrorist.” She didn’t.
And then there’s this interesting analysis about his campaign:
We don’t know who is running the McCain campaign, but it is obvious that the way he is running the campaign shows either one of two things.
McCain is running the campaign, and he is a nasty scattershooter trying whatever desperate tactics he can in order to achieve his final ambition; or
McCain is not in charge of his campaign and is being pulled left and right by the Republican Machine.
Whatever the case, he is no longer fit to lead this country, if indeed he ever was.
#29 – Brock
>>2 years ago, change was voted in, in the form
>>of Democratic Contol over congress. What did 2
>>years bring?
Brock, the Dems have had two years of RAZOR THIN ocntrol over the Congress. If you think that’s enough to overturn 6 years of unbridled, unchecked Republicans and their harmful behavior, you’re nuts. They’re fighting in the aisles, they can’t produce a veto-proof majority; they may “control” (in a technical sense) congress, but they’re certainly not in charge.
That may change after the election. Let’s hope.
Clearly McCain is being undercut by the efforts of TRASH-TALKING REPUKE TALK RADIO (RASH LIMPDICK, ETC) TO WHIP UP HYSTERIA AGAINST OBAMA !!! “He’s an Arab, a Terrorits, swore his Oath of Office on a Koran,etc – ALL ***LIES OF THE LOWEST ORDER*** !!! But that’s how the Minority Repuke Party operates !!! Well, it’s BITING THEIR CANDIDATE IN THE A$$ !!!
