CNN

Too late to play on the heart strings of those "down-trodden poor old people in Selma". Your song is out of tune, a day late and a dollar short.

Don't get me wrong, Dr, MLK has done some good but who cares if he gets a " MLK day" is that the best way to represent his good deeds? PLease people get over yourselves and understand that Dr. King is to humble a man to accept an entire day in honor of him. Just remember him every day of your life and that would be far better than 1 day, 24 hours,1400 mints. please...people get over it!

Nice try with the spam. "If Hillary doesn't win the nomination I'm going to vote for McCain". "If Obama doesn't win the nomination I'm going to vote for McCain". Sounds awfully repetitive and similar to the Ron Paul spammers saying that he "Cured their apathy." I for one am not buying into McCain.

Hillary has done more to advance the candidacy of McCain than any republican ever could. She has declared him a better Commander in Chief than Obama (who will beat her in the primaries), and she has successfully ebbed the wave of "Obamamania," a feat which McCain does not possess the charisma nor personal magnetism, nor connection with his fellow republicans to have been able to accomplish. In her selfish, "me first and forget everyone else" campaign she will both lose the race to become the democratic front runner, and has jeopardized her party's chances to win. Way to go Hillary, way to go!!!

All of you saying Mccain is a racist b/c he voted against the Martin Luther King Jr day in 1986 and is now only saying it was a mistake because he is running for President need to do a little research. It's easy to think you know a candidate based on the little snippets CNN post son their blog. McCain sponsored legislation in 1992 that would create a holiday in AZ for Martin Luther King. He crossed party lines to do it (he does have that history you know) and ultimately it was successful. He made up for his mistake 16 years before his Presidential run.

Vote for whomever you think will best serve this country but do try and find out the facts before slamming someone...

"Will never be my president."
This is the kind of sentiment that makes me sick of Democrats. It's one reason Bush has been unsuccessful. Refusal of Democrats to accept him as president, and undermining everything he tries to do. Now that's unpatriotic.

I will not vote for Clinton or Obama, but if one them them becomes president, they will have my loyalty and I will support them. I may not agree with every policy, and I will probably support legislators that will oppose some of what they want to do, but especially in foreign policy matters I will be behind them 100%. To do otherwise is treason in my opinion.

All you Socialists out there should vote for Obama. If you're an American, vote for McCain.

Hillary Clinton has fooled a lot of people, just Bush fooled a lot of people. If the Democratic Part is stupid enough to nominate her, they will be shut out of the White House again.

The Clintons will say anything and do anything to repeat the Bushes success in forming an American dynasty.

I sure hope Alfredo is not hispanic or liket that. I sure hope that he and the rest of the Latino community does not fall for the pandering the some blacks fall for Hilary's garbage. Later on this summer McCain is going to brush up on his spanish just as Bush did last election.

Any democrat that will not support Obama is proberbly a racist. I don't like the tactics that the Clinton's are using but if she is the nominee I will support her for the good of the party. Anybody but a neo-con. All you wishy-washy democrats outhere who are going to vote for McCain because of Obama are not Democrats and easily led.

Donated to McCain in 2000; voted for Bush, and regret it to this day! And now McCain is at it again.

The Republicans and ALL the hate-mongers (Rush, Reagan, Hannity, Savage, OReilly, FOX News, etc.) who support them lost me and our family with their FEAR and HATE mongering! Can't believe people still listen to them! Are people stupid?

Poor McCain, he is not a bad guy..... but he is clueless just like the rest of the RNC. Can't wait for November when the RNC will be faced with their own destruction.... thanks to Bush.

CNN: I think you need new moderators. The bias representative of the Comment posts you sanction are stunning. This is the best a major media organization can do at promoting a national dialogue on the next president of the United States? Let's place the shame where it belongs: ON THE MEDIA. These comment sections are riddled with rants, slanders, and slurs, which appear to come mostly from Obama supporters. If these are the kinds of folks he attracts, he will not get my vote. The hypocrisy is amazing! (Let's see if the moderators post this one. If they don't, my suspicions will be confirmed).

I AM VOTING FOR OBAMA TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There is a big difference between McCain and the other two candidates. It can be seen right here on this blog.

McCain is running as what he is-

He's not trying to cater to every segment of the population–but he is trying to "reachout" to every segment of the population–that is the difference and a very big difference.

His values/ideals/ and goals for our country don't change with the political winds.

McCain is the only one with the experience and knowledge to lead this country. Period. Hillary and Obama together don't even come close to matching his time in service on any level. Good luck Senetor McCain

Let PA vote themselves deeper into a hole. My sons are not going to this stupid war so let all the sons of PA go and die for some people that don't give a HOOT about them. 100yrs sounds good to me and if Hillary wins this thing and Obama is voted out I will vote for Mc Same and help give them the 100yrs of hell that they love so much. Obama may be too good of a man to be in charge of this government for them. Go ahead PA make my day. Talk about Cali. all you want but I have never been without a job. You better load up the truck Jethro. No, on the other hand stay there and wait for your jobs to come back, Hillary and McSame has a plan for you. Any of you want to buy the Golden Gate Bridge? Hillary will sell it to you very cheap?
Make my day

Can you say-- PANDERING ?????

Who says "all of a sudden"?
He's certainly visited the untouched areas of Arizona.
This being his first national election–why would he have campaigned and stumped in Alabama–or any of the dozens of locales on his agenda.

As far as his record goes–he's always demonstrated concern for all Americans and worked for a fair and level playing field.

This is the problem with GOP party they ignore Americans who have different opinions from them and need to remind themselves by making a special trip to show they are not biased.

All of the HRC supporters that are considering a vote for J McCain against Obama should know what he is going to do to you IF he wins the GE:
1) Help outsource your job to another country(China, India, Mexico, etc..)
2) Because of #1…you will loose your home…
3) Send your kids…sometime in the future…to Iraq or Iran to fight.
think about it…

NEITHER OBAMA OR MCCAIN HAS HAD 8 YEARS OF LIVING IN THE WHITE HOUSE AND MET AND TALKED TO WORLD LEADERS LIKE HILLARY WHO HAS LOTS OF EXPERIENCE IN THIS AREA.
DIPLOMACY OF THE HIGHEST LEVEL IS AT THE WHITE HOUSE
WHERE THERE IS NO SECOND GUESSING AND TALKS ARE CARRIED ON IN SECRET AND ARE BINDING.
I JUST DO NOT AGREE WITH OBAMA HAVING DIRECT TALKS WITH AND GOING TO IRAN WHO IS AN AVOWED ENEMY OF ISRAEL AND
WITH AN UNRELENTING CONTEMPT OF THE U.N. IN CONTINUING ITS NUCLEAR WEAPONS PROGRAM.

WE ACCEPT THE APOLOGY....GOOD TO SEE PEOPLE CAN CHANGE...

STILL DONT WANT TO AS A PRESIDENT.

BYE

He needs to lay off using his war record as to what will make him a good choice. He already sounds too much like Rudy Giuliani who used 9-11 as the one and only reason he should be electable.

Issues, issues, issues. Get with the program.

McCain is an Al-American war hero. Respect him.

Ace show us your Medical records.

he most look pretty funny in a pointed hat and robe.

No matter how much Obama raised in his campaign and spend (overspent HIllary by 5 to 1) Obama is still loosing. It means he is not effective. Obam is just wasting you money. Hillary will still win as she is the most qualified candidate.

Sorry Mccain. The straight talk is starting to turn. Do anything say anything is starting to shown. Peopel wake up. Do not get tricked by this man. You must vote Obama or Hilliary. Vote with facts not your heart. Please I do not want another 4 years of Bush. Obama support and Hilliary support please come together.

The best way to reach out to forgotten places would be to donnate 90% of his and his wife´s owning towards the people who really need that money.... !!!!

McCain is going to say and do anything to get the Repiblicans back in the White House. He is going to give Barack a run for his money and unfortunately most people are going to fall for it "hook, line and sinker".

I guarantee you by the time the General Election rolls around, he will be promising to bring the troops home in some form or another. Watch.

I think he is crazy for trying something like this, the only reason he spoke at MLK day was for the media. He has never talked about bringing people togather just the dem and rep party. He would have never came to the bridge if it wasnt for the media. Lets be real he is feeding us with a long spoon. He dont want goverment health care but he has had it all his life. He didnt want Mlk day or a raise in min. wage.

War-mongering jerk who voted against MLK. Yeah, right, I'm sure he is sincere doing this too.

To All the Obama Haters -

It seems that all of you guys on this board that criticize Obama and praise McCain or Hillary are so uneducated and ignorant.

Why can't you guys just do a simple spell check before posting a message? It's no wonder that Hillary has a lead among the less educated.

Go Obama!!!!

Obama and Bin Laden- both masters of hateful spin.

Both with a cult-like, never question but blindly obey following.

Both manipulate the populace for their own purposes.

Both dangerous men.

So sad that this man fought to preserve the freedom most of you are bashing on this thread. A bunch of college age Kool Aid drinkers who think this is some sort of popularity contest. I love the one from Penn State who was interviewed for the Situation Room, " I just love Obama, he has the solutions to all problems and he is just cool. Besides all my friends really love him"! HUH!!!! This is the well thought intellect we have to look forward too for the next 6 months, God help us. As a sidenote would Penn State please initiate some english and grammer courses as the Penn State sophmore they interviewed last evening was an idiot.

McCain = Draft

So goodbye to your children if he wins! Bomb, Bomb, Bomb, you know the story.

I don't think this is a fear tactic I'm using, it is a fact. Search the latest draft changes. Please, do your homework on this topic before you vote!

WHAT A JOKE, MCCAIN REACHING OUT TO PEOPLE WHO HAVE SUBSTANDARD LIVING WHEN HE HIMSELF SPOKE NEGATIVELY ABOUT NOT HELPING PEOPLE IN THE HOME FORECLOSURE CRISIS, THEN HE BACK TRACKED. HE DIDN'T CARE THEN AND HE DOESN'T CARE NOW. MCCAIN IS OLD AND COLD.

Well, I'm sure glad that we've decided to spit in the guys face for trying.

Once again, as a retired military member, I would follow John McCain. I would also follow HC & BO only out of morbid curiosity.

Obama not only think but sure that Pennsylvannnians are stupid and that's why Obama mocked them. This is so irresponsible and very degrading to the Pennsylvannians and all Americans. Don't get fooled again by Obama. He is outspending in advertising of 5 to 1 against Hullary and he would use this to pursuade young voters to vote for him and will say anuthing but. The true CHANGE we need is to bring back the prospery during the Clinton years. Obama only have pursuasing words but Hilkalry has the solutions. Don't get fooled again by Obama. Wake up America.

As a black man I have gotton no help from the Dems... ever. Now I vote on what makes sense.

John McCain, With Bush tax cuts still in effect, why is our economy in such bad shape. I just don't understand the reason. Could it be that tax cuts wear out and has to be replaced similar to a auto wearing out and you have to get a new auto? Bottom line, why such a lousy economy with the tax cuts still in effect?

Hamas will be voting for McLame. They being Sunni will love the fact that McLame will probably nuke the Shiites of Iran.

all of a sudden when he is running for president?

why didn't he reach out to those "forgotten" people before he was trying to run for president? before he needed their votes?

he'll go right back to forgetting them IF he is nomiatted, and ro right back to pleasing the conservative right nuts, who do not give a crap about the average americans!!!

GO AWAY MCCAIN, THANKS FOR YOUR EFFORST AS A SOLDIER, BUT THAT DOES NOT MEAN WE SHOULD ELECT U AS PRESIDENT

DEMOCRATS IN 08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IF YOU ARE HATEFUL, RICH, OLD AND WHITE MCWAR IS YOUR MAN.

WE ARE MOST PROUD TO REPORT MOST OF US DO NOT QUALIFY.

Ok, so now great grandpa is trying to get the african american votes, what a hugh joke he is. This person is a racist and has been every bit of his 71 years. Nobodys falling for it ole-timer. If Hillary wins the nomination,( WHICH SHE WON'T) and you and Hillary are all that's left to vote for, I won't be voting this year. Why should I, McCain can't remember what day it is, and she is a pathological liar.

Obama 08

Act like you care and people with think you really do care. We won't get fooled again.

Kudos to CNN! I have read many reports and none mentioned the absence of black voters present. The Press LOVE their JOHNNY BOY!

Just who is he reaching out to????? The rich white Republicans?? Humm..............some things never change, do they.

please. stay in Dc Mccain, nobody wants to hear your flipflops in person. Bring our troops home now!

NO COUNTRY FOR HATEFUL OLD MEN.

THE DAYS OF AMERICANS VOTING FOR HATE ARE GONE.

AND MCWAR NEED TO BE GONE AS WELL, GOOD RID ENS.

The Republicans lost me when the sent the fliers fear mongering Abour Ayers. Thes are Karl Rovian tactics-put fear in them, and shove them in a corner. No. more. We are mad as hell,and we are not going to take it any more. No McCain, No Clinton!!!!!!

SINCE McCAIN NEVER SUPPORTED HILLARY...SCREW HIM.

I think that McCain is using his Outreach to further reach into our pockets, just like idiot Bush and the rest of the GOP cretins who've given us a recession, a $10 trillion debt, an illegal war, record amounts of earmarked pork, 'Shock and Awe,' 'Borrow and Spend,' 4,000 dead soldiers and, of course, 'Mission Accomplished.' I wish these crooks would just go away.

Hate IS one of the democrat's family value. Feeling the love in these posts??

The balance in the equation is lacking!!

McBush is for a elitist white only republican party.

Sure don't remember the numbers of protestors or the violent conflict the way it is portrayed now when we drove by that bridge back in 1965. The significance of the event, though, cannot be denied, nor should it be.

McCain is as crooked as Hillary Clinton. I would know...Im from AZ. He was up to his ears in the Keating 5...people just do your homework. Read and get the info you need to make a sound decision.

YEA WE WILL VOTE FOR WARMONGERING GRANDPA,
WHEN WE BECOME AS SENILE, AS HE IS.

Shouldn't he be trying to solidify his conservative base first?

As a Black man, I don't buy it. Period. McSame.

Wow...for people who preach tolerance and acceptance, the unwillingness to forgive McCain is appalling. Dr. King himself preached reconciliation one to another, and would readily forgive McCain. Maybe King's "dream" is dead, after all, what with all those who say they carry on in his memory yet don't follow his example. What a shame.

THE ONLY PLACE MCWAR IS REACHING IS IN OUR POCKET.

WHEN IS HE GOING TO REPAY US FOR HIS WORLD WIND TOUR?

THAT TRIP WAS IN KEEPING WITH THE BUSH POLICY, OF, "I CAN

SPEND YOUR MONEY ANY WAY I WANT".

I applaud him for going to Selma to show that he wants to be a president for all. My only gripe: He needs to show us through legislation and the people he surrounds himself with, that he will be a president for all people. He can talk all he wants, which is a great first step, but walking the walk is the bigger step.

I'm glad to see Mr. McCain stepping over the usual lines... I wish I could be sure he'd make a good president.

HOW DOES MCCAIN EVEN LOOK IN THOSE BLACK PEOPLES FACES??? PHONY! GOOD LUCK WITH MCCAIN.

McCain is a two-faced liar. He will promise anything to anyone to get a vote. I wouldn't believe a word this man says. He's the least qualified out of all candidates to be President.

Here we go again. Now McCain will feel what it's like to be slandered and castigated by the Obama supporters and the media.

Hillary or McCain 08!!!

once a racist always a racist, can't believe anything this cheating, racist bitter old man has to say.

Is this the Republican apology tour?

McCain is a proud America and will be a good president.

McCain or Hillary!

MAn, this guy is old!

McCain just does not get it. I went to one of his rallies in my town – The demographic of the attendees were: Extremely old white men. There was one person of color – He was with the press covering the event. I appreciate McCain's past service to our country, But.. This just does not reflect America in 2008.

McCain doesn't represent the future (PERIOD).

Does McCain and the Republican machine speak to the "hearts and minds" of the American people? No!

Will this belated attempt to connect to the "other" America bring about the change needed in this country or the Republican Party? No!

Will America fall for this and allow McCain to keep us in Iraq, a war that is partly to blame for the current economy? No!

Will he be the next President of the United States? No!

Obama '08

Tyrone Brown
Seattle, WA

What a phony. He didn't want there to be an MLK day. Now he is all for civil rights. I don't believe you, John.

How is the surge going McCain???????????

Funny how you aren't mentioning it anymore.

Nice to see him reaching out beyong the Republican base...good move.

CNN, you guys find the most hilarious pictures of John McCain that I've ever seen. He looks completely senile in this one... Or maybe that's just how he looks all the time.

ANYBODY BUT MCCAIN '08!

mccain cannot heal the damage done by this current administration,by kissing up to people,now,then ,continuing the same stupid policies,after the election.

MCCAIN HASN'T PRODUCED HIS MEDICAL RECORDS YET. HE USED SOME EXCUSE BACK IN MARCH THAT HIS DOCTOR WAS ON VACATION AND HE WOULD RELEASE THEM IN MAY. IT DOESN'T TAKE THREE (3) MONTHS TO GET ONES MEDICAL RECORDS AND YOU DON'T HAVE TO WAIT ON YOUR DOCTOR TO GET THEM, YOU SIMPLY SIGN A RELEASE. THINK ABOUT IT. FACT, I WAS PREVIOUSLY EMPLOYED IN A MEDICAL RECORDS DEPARTMENT.

This Vietnam Veteran supports McCain and will never support a non-military person and hater of my country. Were you and Kerry hanging out with Hanoi Jane in Paris. Sounds to me like you were.

To our incoming president, John McCain, God Bless you and your family. Semper Fi.

Obama is not FIT to call himself a American.

Hillary or McCain.

He can stand on whatever bridge he wants to, but it doesn't change the fact that he and his party are the party of limited civil rights, more government intrusion into individual rights, more government spending, and bigger national debts. And those are his 'positives'.
One of his biggest 'negatives' is that he and his party will try to convince you otherwise, which makes him a dangerous LIAR.

America better grow its voting IQ, and do better than in 2000 and 2004.

John Mccain is an Old GEEZER, that should go and play in a Big Bingo Tournament, so that he can fund his campaign.

McCain is pulling out all the stops he does not care what this bridge means to black americans only using every trick in the book for
a vote don't worry it will only be 10% which are fools. McCain is nothing more Bush policy .

If he was not running for president he would never had made the stop
in Memphis to speak to blacks in the rain.

I went to your website: vets against John McCain and it looks like your trying to pull a "swiftboat" but the fact of the matter is McCain is still a war hero and nothing you say disqualifies him for president. Perhaps, you are just bitter.

Like I have said before, that this guys is taking one for the GOP team. Do you think after bush, that anybody in their right mind would vote for the GOP this time around. Mark my words, this WILL be one land slide election and Mcbush and his queen will not be the winner.

You want to appeal to moderates, McCain?
End the Iraq War.
End Bush's tax cuts to the ultra wealthy.
Stop telling us happy thoughts will get us through the gas crunch.

All of a sudden McCain shows "concern".

And the timing isn't at all oppportunistic!

Is he serious?!? Why do they always have a change of heart when they run for the Presidency? Like he really cares now....

Good work McCain, if Hillary does not win then I want you to be President. You really need to walk back from that support of the war stance and then I could whole heartedly support you. You seem like a great guy with a fantastic personality. And having a president for just 1term is really appealing to me too. Oh, and you should get Romney to be your vp or a woman candidate and that would make me really happy.

Hillary-McCain '08

You have got to be kidding. He does'nt even seem the least bit sincere. What is wrong with you people have you know brain. Seriously somethings is wrong with this country if you think this shribbled old geaser is worth even looking at , for real don't be retards for ever. This guy is so fake , it's leaking from his underarms and mistaken for sweat.

Yes, let's not vote for the man who went through so many hardships while he was a POW in YOUR war. You are disgusting.

Not a hero in my book!

Well at least McCane knows the decisions he makes are all mistakes. Isn't it sad that we allow individuals who have betrayed us on a smaller scale (in the Senate) to run for the highest office of the Land?

McCane is called McSame and McBush, but I don't think the man has any direction at all. What scares me about McCane is the same thing that scares me about Clinton: They both say and do anything to get elected.

Mc Cain is not fit to be president. To see why go to our website: vietnam veterans against john mccain.

Get back to the nurshing home you old man!

Puh-lease! He doesn't understand the average working man/woman anymore than he supports policies that would benefit them.

A vote for McSame is a vote for four more years of the same failed policies of the Cheney/Bush mafia!

Democratic in 2008!

Yes, we can.....take our conutry back!

John, sorry, they keep bumping you down so they can try to lie and smear Hillary more with an outdated report. They want to keep that on the front page, so you were pushed down.

... Don't worry though, after tomorrow's win for Hillary, she will be the nominee and you will start getting more equal time.

Your'e a little late. The March was in the '60.

Is this guy kidding? He voted against a Dr, King holiday – what kind of person but a bigot would do that? I guess he thought the fight against racism, sexism and oppression isn't something worthy of acknowledging!

Who is he trying to reach out to? He is the biggest flip-flopper yet.

McCain has come to realize that finishing second in the Olympics gets you silver; Finishing second in politics gets you oblivion. He is going to have to shake a lot of hands to make up the difference.

Too late Mccain No African American person will the right mind will vote Republican except a few idiots. Republican so called Conservative which I call false Christians are the most racist people in face of this planet.

And while Ms. Clinton continues her failed comapign forcing Mr. obama to fight on two fronts Mr. mcCain is getting a quiet period to strengthen his campaing without any real scrutiny.. THANKS HILLARY No wonder why the most conservative paper in PA supports you! You are handing the race to Mr. McCain because you cannot do the math that shows unless you win by over 40% in all remaining states you will not beat Mr. Obama in pledged delegates (which we understand you think should all change their votes to you) nor the popular vote and that the only way you can win is by backroom deals with the Superdelegates...

As a United States senator how could you have just gotten around to visiting hurricane Katrina victims. How is that possible. I know they tried to make that a race thing but it really wasn't. There were just as many white people hurt by that as black people, but, for some reason they only want to show black people when they talk about hurricane katrina.

I think it is a shame to try and use that as a political stand. It is so many people that are just homeless after that and still waiting for someone to give them some help. That should not be what you want to use for a political plat form.

He now needs votes. That's why he said It was a mistake. Vote Halliary or Barack , we will have a better life, because the Democrats truly care for all those who live in this great nation, The USA...

McFlip has made a lot of mistakes and continues to talk out of both sides of his mouth. A Republican heading to New Orleans to mouth platitudes about "fixing" their problems. Too little, too late, too obvious.

Hello John McCain! Moderate Voter Here! Waiting for your "outreach!"

Does this "outreach" include comparing Obama to Hamas? If so, you lost me big time.

I supported your campaigns in the past, financially. No more.

Fire your Carville-clone or whoever is doing this idiotic "attack dog" stuff.

Are you blind as well as deaf? Can't you see that is what is TANKING Hillary?

Now your campaign is tanking as well. Sheesh! You HAD it man!

And you BLEW it!

Quote: "There must be no forgotten places in America, whether they have been ignored for long years by the sins of indifference and injustice, or have been left behind as the world grew smaller and more economically interdependent," said the presumptive Republican nominee. Wasn't he part of that indifference for goodness sake? He speaks as though he was not in Washington for the last few decades. Typical pol.

The future of this nation depends on the character and wisdom of our next president, Thus this is the most important factor to evaluate a candidate. Any person who is not wise enough to understand that our nation has deteriorated in the past few years because of the Iraq war does not deserve to be our next president.

McCain is an honorable veteran and respected senator. However, he is too stubborn and too committed to the Iraq (or may-be Iran) war. Obama is an inspiring speaker to some, but slippery and without substance to others. He is the most unknown among the three candidates in this area. Yet, we have already known many things that can handicap him in the general election and in the presidency: for example, his dealings with the indicted Chicago land dealer; his relationship with Rev Wright.; his wife’s stand on races and America; and his smoking and drug history. On the other hand, Hillary has been in the public light for more than 30 years. She has built some resistance from the public, particularly from the media. However, she is an optimistic person with a resilient strength to overcome difficulties

Don't even go there McCain. You remember those places now? You've been a Senator for over twenty years. You couldn't have squeezed them in by now? Pandering, pandering...

McBush,

Reaching out to the right-wing nutters, grannies and weak minded.

I can't wait until there's a debate between Obama and McCain. Barack will serve point-by-point blows to that FLAWED McBush.

Clinton is over, Bush is over, it's really time to Move On.

Listening and acting upon are two completely different things. Please listen closely to his words. He hears our cries to bring our troops home, yet blatantly states his opposition to this. This is not a man for the people.

No forgotten places? What about New Orleans, Senator McCain? Any thoughts of your own on that, or are you going to continue to show the indifference the current administration has?

Obviously McCain doesn't think he's going to make inroads with black voters. The only reason I can think of that would support him doing this is that his campaign must feel that some of Obama's success is rooted in "white guilt" and he has to position himself in such a way as to give white people a way to vote for him in spite of that. Even that seems like a bit of a stretch – but if not that what is he doing?

nice try, McKlan. Nobody's buying it.

He has no right to be anywhere near that bridge or anything it represents! Your vote against MLK day was certainly a mistake, as are you, you crazy, war loving, old, old, man.

At least he admitted he did a misstake. Obama has still admitted his misstake with Rev. Wright and appologized to PA people. McCain comes across far more honest and humble than Obama
