WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONG.

Keep reporting CNN, Fox seem to have drop the ball…..

I cant believe that mccain ran ads on those web sites to begin with.
I think the people who run those ads think like hitler and are ran by the
same people who voted for hillary because Rush limbrugh (or whatever his name is) told them too. They are not independent and
were never democrates but always were republician swiftboaters.

Michelle, let me first say that I can tell you're one of the Obama camp's overeducated supporters. How can I tell? Your superb grasp of the English language! "pissed off" …"move up there primaries." Stellar language skills!
As for Democrats uniting, has it ever occurred that we democrats that will not support Obama in the fall have reasons other than being angry? We question Obama's motives and sincerity. We believe that Obama has his own best interest at heart and not the best interest of the nation. Obama reminds us too much of G.W. Bush, he is running on nothing but arrogance and rhetoric, much as Bush did in 2000. We will not support a candidate we don’t believe in just because he is of our party. Sorry, some of us don’t care to be lemmings and jump off a cliff just because others do. We will sit back and enjoy the show. And if Obama wins and surprises us by showing us he is able to lead, we may support him in 2012. For now my motto is “anyone but Obama!”

Clinton supporters are voting for McCain for a variety of reasons. I don't believe any woman who was voting for Hillary because she is a woman would vote for McCain, if they are that's not the reason they voted for Hillary. I believe these people are voting based on brand name, not issues. They knew the Clinton name and now are more familiar with McCain's name. Some people say it's trust. Of those people what is it you trust. You trust the republicans to get us out of the mess their policies have created. You trust McCain even though he's changed his position seemingly to appeal to the far right. It's ok to change your mind but these are things he proportedly staunchly believed in. I think it has more to do with you don't trust Obama because of his name, his race, or his "lack of experience." What kind of experience are you looking for? Our foriegn policy guru's have really hit the nail on the head lately. So have the economic advisers who created the mortgage mess. So have the greedy politicians who sold out to big oil.

"The McCain campaign pulled the ads Monday evening after they were pointed out by CNN."

Thank you CNN.

to all of the hillary or noone crew: shut up and sit down, everyone is tired of your blab, do what you feel you must and stop yelping about it.
to all of the obnoxious obama herd: shut up and sit down, everyone is tired of your endless arrogance, your slander, and your name calling.
we the people are free to vote for whomever we choose. we choose based on beliefs, ethics, judgement, character, honor, integrity, and whether we think this person will be the best for the job. if we do not support obama it is not because we are racist, stupid, or uneducated. if we dont support clinton it isnt because we are arrogant, elitist, sexists. we support the candidate we believe in and we will not change our minds just because you called us names again. in fact the more names you call us the less we like your candidate.

Shame on you McCain, for having your ads run on these shameful websites. You knew about it all along.

George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt,…George W Bush(ahem)…, and now his disciple John McCain. Truly the greatest leaders to ever grace the halls of the White House.
If you don't believe that your candidate belongs on this list don't waste your vote. Elect a smart leader that could make it onto this list.
Vote wisely USA!

If you basing your vote on these smear campaigns on both sides. DON'T VOTE!! Save the election for the ones who do the research on the issues so we can fix the mess this country's in. What are we, a bunch of kids???

WAKE UP AMERICA! WHY IS IT NOT OK TO SAY AS A GENERAL IN THE MILITARY, YOU DO NOT THINK THAT BEING SHOT DOWN QUALIFIES YOU TO BE COMMANDER AND CHIEF….. BUT EQUATING OBAMA TO HILTER….THAT IS OK? THIS IS 2004 ALL OVER AGAIN. SENATOR OBAMA HAS IT RIGHT. JOHN MCCAIN IS RUNNING FOR A 3RD BUSH TERM AND HE IS RUNNING HIS CAMPAIGN JUST AS BUSH DID IN 2004. MCCAIN HAS LOST ALL MY RESPECT AND I COULD CARE LESS WHAT HIS WAR HISTORY IS? HE HAS LOST MY RESPECT COMPLETELY. COME ON MEDIA, START TALKING ABOUT THE ISSUES. WE AS AMERICANS DESERVE MORE THAN THIS. SHAME ON YOU !

McCain was well aware of this….

Thank you McCain for being a very honorable man! Just be yourself and the American people who have their eyes open will appreciate you.
For once, I have not seen McCain mentioning Rezko. Maybe McCain is too nice to run this campaign.

Why doesn't cnn cover some of the disgusting attitudes of the obama supporters on all the blogs and you tube comments, and everywhere else. McCain supporters at least aren't threatning and seem to know more about their candidate. Some of the obama people seem to think their voting for american idol or rooting for a sports team. And their not only arrogant, but rude, and continue to attack hillary supporters. If hillary supporters want to be stupid and beleive what they beleive, let them do it. its called freedom of speech and opinion. why do they blame the mccain campaign?

Also, how about covering how the obama camp is paying people to stand by the computer all day and retort anyones opinion that isn't in favor of obama. Isn't that a little manipulative, and misleading.

Obama is an unbelievable candidate but pretends to be this candidate of change, but behind the scenes he gets his campaign to do all the dirty work.

republicans advertise with hate and lies.we dont need republicans, anymore.

Hey Jay from 1pm, you're exactly right. And guess what, Senator Obama himself said he's flawed.
We all are, and there's not one person on earth (yes, there is one in Heaven) who is perfect.

Chicosez, just because someone voted for Obama does not make them new to the "party". I'm a lifelong dem like you and made a clear choice for Obama. The reason the Supers went with Obama is because they or their constituents wanted to do so. (Note that not all the Supers went to Obama. Some endorsed Clinton.) The reality is that it was a close primary and Sen. Obama came out on top. And don't even start with MI and FL; we all know that Sen. Clinton suddenly became interestd in those states AFTER Super Tuesday when her campaign showed the first signs of trouble. Stay or leave the "party". It's entirely up to you.

Karl Rove is one of his advisers and he claims he didn't know about these sites? Rove was responsible for smearing McCain in 2000.

Gave proof thru the G.E
That our nation's still afraid
O say that star spangled banner
Yet Droops in Dismay
Oer the land of the sheep(in that we blindly follow anything we hear)
And the home of the afraid.

Comparing Obama to Hitler is ridiculous and spiteful. The similarity is that both "inspired a cult-like following"? Why don't we just compare Elvis, or the Beatles, or the Pope, for that matter, to Hitler, for their zealous followers? Highly educated people can see right through the tactics that the republican/conservative smear machine is using– high emotion-evoking terms and comparisons that confuse and warp sensible thought. It is a shame that Americans allow themselves to be manipulated in this way.

What's really funny is that McCain's political views are more equivalent to Democrats than BO's very left wing, liberal views. Yet Democrats aren't looking at political views, they're looking at race. I hope the country soon opens their eyes to the views than to the race. And for anyone who calls the Republicans racist, who freed the slaves? You'll find Abraham Lincoln (a Republican) did.

It's funny how during the primaries Obama supporters were saying that Hillary was so much different from Obama on issues and represented old Washington politics, but now that they want Hillary's supporters to support Obama they are saying that Hillary and Obama political issues are the same. Who do you think you are fooling? Nothing New or Fresh here. Obama = same old Washington politics.

to independent woman for obama
distort lie and justify is a form of christianity taught by Rev. Wright check it out. the bombing of Iran is being promoted by the obama campaign nobody else drilling wherever there is oil will allow you to keep your family from going without heat and keep the cost of food for your family to an affordable level (ever have a black out in your area because you don't have enough energy think about it) ask the hundreds of thousands of men women an children that saddam Hussein slaughtered, if attacking that regime was or wasn't pro life. as for medicare for children look up the facts before you shoot your mouth off it goes right back to obama's learning of rev wright's teaching distort lie and justify

Alice in Florida sounds soooo jealous of Obama getting to do enjoyable things. Is your life that empty? You can get out and do things too if you are healthy enough. Stop sitting in the house and feeling hard toward others.

"A recent post on the blog outlined the 'simple parallels' between Obama and Hitler, and accused Obama's audiences of having the same cult mentality that characterized followers of the German dictator."

This is probably the most honest statement made recently regarding Obama and his non-thinking followers. Although "cult mentality" with regard to Obama followers is probably a bit of an understatement.

This OPINION is based entirely on the silliness displayed on CNN by said Obama supporters. The typical post is lacking in any critical thought and usually includes immature name calling such as "McBush" or other nonsense.

Hillary Clinton has become the nation's 3rd choice for President when she should have been the nation's 1st choice. Nonetheless, you can still vote her in by printing her name as a write-in candidate on your November ballot. Clinton got skewed and screwed while Obama was the beneficiary of her trash and bash. Thanks to media men who control the news organizations such as CNN, MSNBC, FOX NEWS, NBC. we now have an inflated smiley faced Obama that we have to hear all about as if he has now become the authority on everything. Women should be outraged.

ML:

The problem with reading BO's policies is that they are "just words".

He has NEVER done anything while in office….mostly because his current office was nothing more than a VERY temporary stepping stone to his next audatious move. He has NO track record of backing up any of his promises. He is a puppet, saying whatever is necessarry to cater to the current direction the wind is blowing. For those of you who are voting for him ONLY because he promises to bring the troops out of Iraq, don't hold your breath. He's already started to waffle big time on that. This election is about a complex web of issues. You'd better base your vote on proven track record instead of a list of promises.

Just let him sit there in his flip-flops and finish his waffle. Then he'll get right back to serving up another hearty portion of "just words".

I love how some of the Clinton supporters forget that Obama got 17,869,542 votes in the primaries. Although I don't agree, I do understand the feelings about Florida and Michigan. But be pissed off at your state legislator for breaking the rules. The DNC and Obama did not make Michigan or Florida move up there primaries.

Democrats Unite!

I can understand why someone would dislike one candidate or prefer one over another. But, why the hatred? What;s up with that?

hey Sean from Canada
you are quoting from McCain's strategy not obama, he wanted to pull them out unconditionally as soon as he got into office within 16 months. of course like every thing else about him it's borrowed strategy just like the ones he took from Clinton. now tell me this when he pulls the troops out and al-qaeda returns and he sends the troops back in what will you Canadians do with the deserters who won't go back give them refuge like you do now. how do you work that out, one American deserter allowed for every Canadian killed fighting in Afghanistan

That is a gracious move on McCain's part but McCain needs to check himself regarding offensive remarks. McCain fundraiser statement about Hamas supporting Obama was completely out of line.

Clark's statement about McCain military service was nothing compared to what McCain suggested about Hamas's support for Obama.

Is it me or is there a bunch of disgruntled women posting due to Hillary losing……….or is it the GOP in disguise…..I am not sure but people need to get educated…..don't except what the news tells you or websites…….compare info…..it well give you a better perspective…..no one is getting reperations if Obama is elected……….so all I would say is be informed…….lastly it is funny to me how the majority of Americans are poor but most of us see fit to have the party of the rich in control……..lol "Americans" you gotta love em

Good for you McCain! Too bad you won't get my vote.

Hillary supporters are in for a rude awakening (PUMA) this election.

Obama '08

TO "Clinton, no, wait, McCain Supporter":

If you were a Clinton supporter you would be interested in protecting the rights that I highlighted in my blog. McCain is not. Period. That's your answer — smart people vote based on the issues that they care about. If you want to be pathetic and bitter, vote for McCain, and watch those rights disappear. If you wanted Hillary to win, you should vote for Obama. Its that simple.

Does that clear things up?

Obama is not a GOD. Stop treating him as one. You guys treat him like an American Idol and he is far from one.

RB……while you are writing checks to Mc Crazy……just make sure you enlist a son daughter……nephew or grandson…..to really show support of your candidates center stance on the issues……I am sure Obama will not ask this much of you but this is America and as long as you stand behind your decision I can would never question your judgement
Obama 08

K-Wrap! CCN, why didn't you publish my last post? All I said was a word that starts with C and rythmes with map. Wel I don't want to right the same thing all over so briefly, Ex-Clinton supporter now for McCain are about as selfish as you can get and screwing the country worse than it is now just because your candidate did not get the nomination is very, very immature and you know it is.

Second, why can't the Republicans try and win the election on actual issues and not Clinton -Type Kitchen Sink strategies filled with word twisting, hate and fear. I hope the rest of the country sees Obama is already doing the change he speaks of by not doing the personal destruction, smear, lie, tactics of his major opponants thus far. That's is what he means by change. We are sick of the dirty negative politics Republican excel at and we want that to change.

That is absolutely pathetic. Have you seriously run out of ideas that fast? If you can't run a campaign, how are you gonna run a country.

I wouldn’t go so far as to compare Obama with Hitler but his followers DO have the same cult mentality that characterized followers of the German dictator.

Reagan did it. He closed all the Mental Hospitals and turned the insane out on the streets. They are now Republicans.
You reap what you sow.

Carl Rove should be in prison,not running McCains smear campaign.

I hope Obama gets back to his HOPE message and quits defending himself for others comments. It is a free country, so I have understood, and he is running a great campaign. Those Hillary supporters are so angry and put so much negative energy into a lost cause. Why don't you direct your attention to help the flood victims, Katrina victims, the children of Darfur and Sudan.. Obama fought clean and won. Your vote for McCain will lose Hillary a plum job in Obama's cabinet.. wake up people..MCcain wins your Hillary ends up back on the Senate floor!

Why would the American People vote for someone who could keep us in Iraq for "100 years if necessary" ? Bring the troops home Obama: Carefully and according to the timetable that the troop commanders on the ground advise.
Why does everyone in a room with McCain look so miserable? Is it becaus they know he Represents a thrid "Bush" term?

Chico. Good Riddance. Your candidate lost. Get over it. She lost in superdelegates, and regular delegates, or maybe you don't believe in that side of it, like i'm sure you don't believe in caucus states.

It is a true statement that Hitler made great speeches which brought him to power in Germany. And it is a true statement that Obama makes great speeches that might bring him to power in America.

Hitler had an idea about how the world should work and acted on it. Obama has an idea about how the world should work and is trying to act on it.

Make whatever judgement you want about other similarities but those are historically factual statements.

Um, Ted that can be said for about half our presidents. No the fact remains, Hitler gave speeches filled with hate and blame. Obama gives speeches filled with ideas and issues. And your other "factual statement" is ridiculous, I have an idea how the world should work and I'm trying to act on it, so now I'm Hitler (keep in mind half my family died in the Holocaust). NO candidate (McCain or Obama) is anything CLOSE to Hitler. To say that is spitting on all the graves that Hitler produced. My family was closely divided between Obama and Hillary, but now that Obama is the nominee EVERYONE is voting for him. Not because we are "Obamites" but because we read their policies which are almost exactly the same. Please people think of your ancestors when writing such hateful comments!

MCBUSH IS MENTALLY & MORALLY BANKRUPT.

THOSE VOTING FOR HIM WORSE OFF THAN HE.

WHY PULL THEM OFF THEY'RE TRUE.

It's very obvious Hillary's supporters on those disgusting websites ONLY supported her because she is a woman. Nothing more. They obviously cared nothing for her policies and beliefs, nothing! Let them vote McCain, we don't need them.

I refuse to believe there are enough of these small-minded, vindictive women out there ready to set back the feminist movement by decades to make even one iota of a difference in the general election. Obama will win and their lives will be better for it despite themselves.

IT HAS BEEN PROVEN OVER & OVER AGAIN,

MORONS VOTE FOR THEIR KIND, OTHER MORONS.

THAT'S HOW WE GOT BUSH SR, & JR.

THAT'S HOW WE GOT $5.00 GAS ON THE WAY TO $10.00

IF BCBUSH GOT ELECTED, HE WOULD DECLARE WAR

ON A FEW MORE COUNTRYS AS WELL. THAT IS MONEY

IN THEIR POCKET & OUT OF OUR POCKET.

TO SHERRY

if you think cnn lets you share all views and is not obamanized try writing about obama's early supporters. and his actual work done in chicago. what lucrative job did he give up to work there?try and find out where he worked to pay his way though school. lots of luck

I sincerely hope that Clinton supporters know the weight of their actions. If even a fraction of the 18 million Hillary supporters do indeed vote for McCain in November as a means to get her on the ticket in 2012, then they are not only compromising their principles but also dividing the party. They will forget that revenge is best served cold.. Obama supporters won't vote for her in 2012 and that guarantees Republican rule for the next 8 years. You might not like him, but pending a major event, Obama will be our next president.

Alice in Florida July 1st, 2008 11:53 am ET

McCain seems to be the only person with integrity in this race. Obama sure has none.
——————–

Integrity? Calling Carter the worse president ever – has he ever actually taken a look at the damage Bush has done to this nation? Why is it he can always explain his flip flops and mispeaks off to "he forgot" or some other lame excuse? Apparently he and Rove are in bed together and the things Rove did to him back when Bush was running is forgotten.

The Republican party has NO integrity. It's all about the rich and what's in it for them. They swiftboated Kerry and McCain didn't like being on the receiving end when Clark stated a FACT that Obama should have never apologized for.

I think the best thing that could happen for America is for the Republican party to implode.

go on Barack. You have what it takes.

I am a Hillary Clinton supporter and I was hurt when her candidacy ended. I have decided to support Obama because I feel he is closely aligned with Hillary's policies. I have a hard time believing that it is anything short of racism that has caused these IGNORANT HRC supporters to go off the deep end. This is totally pathetic.

If they didn't know Ads were being pulled from their AdNetwork, they need to hire new IT people.
The spokesperson may not have known, but somebody did. Lies, all lies.

Blah Blah Blah, same old same old. I agree about the Brittany Mentality from our media. I'm so disgusted by the media coverage of the entire campaign season. All they wish to report is bickering, hate, and rumors. Here we are only a few short months away from the election in Nov, and we still don't know who the VP picks are yet.

What about the issues? What about the problems we're facing? I bet 90% of journalists can't identify 10 differences between the candidates.

Just for the record, I'm conservative-libertarian, I was a Ron Paul supporter, and now, I'm behind Barr.

I cannot vote for Obama because, he abandoned his post as senator from IL as quickly as he was elected to run another campaign. He has accomplished nothing legislatively for our country. He's too wet behind the ears to take the top job. The policies he's advocating will tear our country further apart. The latest rumor I've heard is that Obama isn't actually a natural born citizen, making him ineligible for the job.

I cannot vote for McCain either. McCain is too old for the job. McCain has continued to pander to the same people who supported Bush. The last thing we need is another 4 more years. If we elect McCain, it's probably only for the VP he picked to ascend to the presidency after McCain kicks the bucket.

I can't believe a word either Obama or McCain says. Nader, Baldwin, and many other third parties won't be on enough ballots to even have a shot at winning. Bob Barr and the libertarian party will be on the ballots in almost all states.

Given my options, it's an easy choice. I'm Behind Bob Barr

The PUMA organization is larger and growing larger every day, but the fact is, the PUMA MENTALITY is sweepingly and overwhelmingly prevalent in our country. The majority of Americans are somewhere in the middle on the "political meter". Obama 's pendulum swings WAY too far to the left. Most Americans are appalled at the thought of handing over the reigns of this country to a man who holds Marxist teachings and philosophy in such high regard (this is his own admission, not an accusation– read his books).

This is just what the republicans are use to doing….the same old same old meaningless junk.

@ Down with Obama, you have officially been adding to my watch list of PUMA (Poor uneducated miserable adults) nuts. Look for the next issue. LMAO

It's so easy to spew hate when you can hide behind some nickname. I would bet my last dollar that 98% of the hate mongerers wouldn't open their mouths if they had the chance to say what they write in a public forum.

If you are such loyal Hillary supporters why are you shunning her now when she is asking you to support Obama? Remember, she and Barack's ideas for the future are very similar and therefore wouldn't it be logical to vote for Barack rather than McCain.

I honestly don't understand you. Please make me understand why you are going to vote for McCain even though you are a democrat. And I don't want the crap about him being a liar, a muslim, unpatriotic, etc. I want to know policy wise why you are going to vote for McCain even though you will not get healthcare, he knows nothing about economics, he is for keeping the troops in Iraq, he wants to bomb Iran, he is going to do nothing about gas prices. Please enlighten me.

The reason former Clinton supporters are forming groups like PUMA is that we feel that the dem establishment, Dean/Kennedy/Kerry/Pelosi pressured the super delegates to vote for Obama because the could control Obama more than they could Hillary. And yes, I really was a life-long yellow dog dem till this primary season. I have backed the dem party with money and time for decades, and I've got the cancelled checks and autographed pictures to prove it. Have any of you Obama people ever worked in an off year campaign or ever donated money to anybody other than Obama? You first election democrats think you are the new heart and soul of the party, well Ok. The dem party is now yours, without me and many otherpeople like me. Unhappy Clinton supporters walked out of the Iowa State Dem convention last week and they won't be back.

McCain voters are the same morons that voted for Bush and Cheney but dont want to tell us they did.

McCain was quick to accuse Obama in having a role in Gen. Clark's dumb comment (without verifying whether Obama campaign or Obama himself had any role) about his qualification as a President but has so far said nothing about his buddy Joe Lieberman's (a turncoat) stupid comment about expecting a terrorist attack on US next year. It is a shame that someone like Lieberman would say something like this to bring in the "fear factor" since there is no other point on which McCain can outscore Obama in the coming election. It's also pitiful since Lieberman should be aware that the democrats lost in 2004 based on this issue and nothing else. See what we got during the last four years based on this lie!!! There is a limit to how long one can be vengeful for not getting the party nomination for senate election last time. Joe Liebernman you are pitiful!!!

I can't believe so many Clinton supporters won't support Obama. With as much as they have in common it just doensn't make sense. I have to believe that republicans may have infiltrated the Pro-Clinton groups and are fueling this Anti-Obama movement from within those groups. I understand being disappointed, but to throw away your values and beliefs out of spite is ridiculous and dare I say unpatriotic. Clinton supporters: please do not be divisive petty when it come to the direction of our country. The country needs your help to get back on the path to peace and prosperity. Our children need you. Let's put aside our feelings and do what is best for this nation.

McCain wants voters that are hateful and negative, that's fine by me. Take Them All Please…

It's probably in the best interest of the good people, who don't hate or are negative, that they do go with McCain.

"Meanwhile high-profile Obama supporters sling mud and Obama does next to nothing."<-Wrong!!! Pay attention to all the news, and not just what you want to hear…NC Voter

And what are you talking about Alice??? You haven't got a clue about what you are talking about, but that is what I expect sore losers to say…

I hope for your sake, Raymond Duke, you are not in the wrong place at the wrong time…I mistake you for a burglar…

"By the way, Obama has a lot of gall to campaign in Independence, the home of Harry Truman, a man who stood his ground against America's enemies."

Ahhhh….This is what OBAMA is doing standing up to silly uneducated people like some of YOU…

"I don't see anything wrong with these sites… The Truth will set us Free from the O'bots!"

The REAL truth will set you free, DUH. Not just what you want to believe…

You McCain fans or VERY pathetic…I feel sorry for you

If only people would take a step back from their SELF RIGHTEOUS EGO and see that choosing to vote for McCain over Obama since you're candidate, Hillary lost shows you never had true convictions of your own.
You all just flip flop like the candidate you are flocking to, McCain.

Vote your economic interest and for someone that is actually laying out a plan for what THEY will do, Obama. McCain hasn't given substantive or concrete stances on healthcare, economy. Only thing he touts is foreign policy experience of which he voted for a WAR in iraq.
I give McCain credit for the attempt at decency I've seen him run with and great courage and character, I even like some of his ideas on taxes and immigration but the full package is OBAMA..

Please do your research and make that education you have count for something as opposed to hear says and pundits from FOX news.

Cult-mentality? Really? Look who's talking!!!

PUMA's are not Republicans. We are Democrats and will not put up with the DNC's SELECTION of Obama as our candidate.

I have voted Democratic all my life and I will NOT vote for Obama and will NOT vote for any of the Superdelegates that went against the will of the people in their states!!!!! Including John Kerry!!!

Nice job John, these types of websites are dispicable!

NOT WORKING, THAT'S WHY THEY GOT PULLED.

MCBUSH & JOE LIEBERFOOL, WHAT A TEAM.

BETWEEN THE TWO, THEY DON'T HAVE THE

MORALITY OF AN ALLEY CAT.

mccain is mcannoying and needs to mcgo away!

Quotes from McCain supporters in this thread:

"McCain seems to be the only person with integrity in this race. Obama sure has none."

"Meanwhile high-profile Obama supporters sling mud and Obama does next to nothing."

You both have such selective memory of the facts, it makes a person wonder if you need Joe Lieberman in the background whispering them into your ear, like McCain. You are so biased and loose with the facts that, christ, go vote for McCain already and shut up. Leave intelligent discussions to people willing to debate facts and not spew senseless garbage like you two are doing.

great way to follow Mr. Obamas lead Mr. McCain.

To PRO-CHOICE PRODEM.. I am from Canada and right now it is 95 degrees.Also we are not bitter and I am a Obama supporter.. watch your words please. OUR soldiers are dying In Afganistan to support YOUR war.. I get a little tired of this unknowledgable crap about our country. Canadians are loved all over the world so get educated please.

The Obamabots will, of course, remain ignorantly silent as MoveOn.org (Obama's master) launches its vile at Sentor McCain.

Obamabots apparently are easily manipulated.

Why wasn't Obama at the town hall meeting? Oh, right, he's busy hugging people, emailing starlets, riding bikes, bowling, playing basketball, going on vacation, being adored by the MSM, reading speeches while he points his finger and holds his head at what he apparently thinks is a Presidential angle, throwing people under the bus, designing idiotic VERY presumptuous logos, hanging out with criminals, and scared to death of any questions or debate. All he can do well is read a speech and play the race card. He's gonna have a hard time pulling the race card with McCain, though. Poor Obama – there goes his whole campaign strategy right down the drain…..

He is a skunk – pure and simple – black and white and stinks to high heaven

PUMA PAC

this appears to be a theme with McCain that he did not know the ads are being played in anti-Obama website. He did not know that his advisor charlie black has said a terrorist attack will benefit McCain. He did not know that the fundraiser at Texas is from an individual who says women should enjoy being raped. He did not know that the majority of his staff are lobbiest. He also says he does not know about the economy. Clearly, we should take his word that he does not know anything because he does not vet his staff and his policies are a joke. Thank you McCain for your honesty.

Have you heard the new one about Obama…
How do you become a US senator for more than one day and think that you don't have to recite the pledge of allegiance or salute the American flag when you get inaugurated????Ignorance!
If he was a Muslim terrorist why would he be giving up his life to make our country better?
I am looking for intelligent reasons not to like this guy…All I hear is the same old news Rev Wright, Bitter people, and Muslim Man.
I am tired of regurgitated FOX news propaganda. Say something concrete against this man and please don't mention the experience issue. GWB had governor's experience and look how great he did!
Obama in 08!

The real difference between Obama an McCain is that McCain threw Up His Hands to the Nam Commies and said NO MAS, NO MAS!
" Did Anyone See Me"?. Because, "I Believe I'm A Hero" and ,"If I play It Right, Some Day I May Run For President", and Be like G.W.

Meanwhile high-profile Obama supporters sling mud and Obama does next to nothing.

I really think it is a very unacceptable for Sen. John McCain to take on Sen Barack Obama, and believe that it is s one of the reason that we are questioning is ability to govern United States, since he always make a shame of himself in every single action that he takes.

This is Barack Obama's election to lose. He will be our next president period.

I am a Dem, and I've lived with lots of presidents I didn't vote for, heck I didn't even vote for Clinton:
Nixon
Ford (no one voted for him)
Reagan
BushI
Clinton
Bush II

So the GOP will have to live with Obama.

This will be viewed as a plus for the McCain folks…..most of those websites are racist ….uneducated people that are hiding behind Hillary Clinton to vocalize hatred and divisiveness. There was NO Place for them in the Democratic Party and I am sure that you will not want them either( PUMA tsc.) Thank You Sen. McCain….wish you all had seen those sites for what they were sooner.

McCain seems to be the only person with integrity in this race. Obama sure has none.

So I actually went to two of these sites… I hope whatever they have isn't contagious, did some of those people eat a lot of those contaminated tomatoes? If you ever meet any of these people in person, be sure to wash your hands, so you don't catch denial.

Sorry, folks, but McCain has run a far cleaner campaign then either Obama or Clintons–now that Obama and the Clintons have meshed, there will be far more dirty tricks behind the scenes. You people really are deluisional if you think it was McCain in all those ads. Hillary supporters are the ones who smeared Obama every inch of the way in the primaries. Now you are trying to blame McCain who was not even campaigning at the time. Wirght, Rezko , the priest,Ayers, and others were from your own trusted DEMS! Even the racist blabber came from democrats! How can you be so flagrantly dumb?! Or is it the drugs and koolaid?

I'd never known the Obama campaign smearing any of the candidates since this Presidential run started. It's a crime shame to see Americans behave in such a manner to where it has become hatred against other americans. How sad.

Funny,

GW has to go to prepared, canned audience, like the military to get a response. Barack just starts walking down the street, and gets an enthusiastic crowd.

It is a true statement that Hitler made great speeches which brought him to power in Germany. And it is a true statement that Obama makes great speeches that might bring him to power in America.

Hitler had an idea about how the world should work and acted on it. Obama has an idea about how the world should work and is trying to act on it.

Make whatever judgement you want about other similarities but those are historically factual statements.

Swift Boat McSame, is anybody really surprised. Just the fact that he promised to run a clean campaign, tells you that when he flip flops ( which is at least once a day), that he will do the exact opposite. It is really sad that he is the best that the Republicans can come up with.

The MISFIRE Express.

Go Dems !

Jon,

Patriotism in the United States is speaking your mind and taking action for what you believe in. Mindlessly following the propoganda of the leadership is NOT patriotism. Our country was founded on the principles that you can have an opposing opinion. Read the Constitution (obviously Bush never has, but then again, he can barely read). Read the Bill of Rights. The doctrines layed out in those documents are what patriotism is composed of. What Bush and the rest of that bunch call patriotism is the machinations of people who play to people with simple minds and only a vague understanding of our country's foundations. Don't fall into the trap of wrapping the flag around every agenda you want to promote, right or wrong. The Nazis did that. Their population blindly followed them. Look what happened. Had their been the strong right to protest, perhaps World War II wouldn't have happened.

Calling people unpatriotic simply because they don't see things your way is incredibly stupid. Get a life.

Hillary Clinton needs to speak out against this! Unfortunately for him, McCain has inadvertently fallen into the dark trenches where the casualties of the war waged by the Clinton campaign hide out. They conspire to undermine and exploit what is good about this country. McCain seems so out of touch, I don’t think he can be held accountable. Watch out, Senator McCain. It's dirty work being a vulture. On the other hand, Hillary IS in touch, and should be held accountable. I think much of this hostility was cultivated by the tone of her campaign. Remember that these disgruntled, one-time Clinton supporters are among those 18 million voters for which Hillary demanded we show respect. Respect them? She, Bill, and all their surrogates should publicly condemn them.

Grow up you guys. We don't live in fantasyland. He needs to protect himself, and he should stop the hugs. I want to hug him too, but he's in a very unique position.

Pumas are Now Republicans,

hahahahaha well put… where's the donation form?

If McCain loses this will be why.

Is McCain turning out to be a wimp?

hey JR…

alot of these blogs are repugs posting as Obama supporters. they use to be Clinton repug supporters.. ( we call them TROLLS for short) so dont generalize us..the true Obama supporters.

as far as McCain is concerned….he is, after all, a repug. and swiftboating in any form is what they do best.

Not this time..Not this year!!!

OBAMA 08/12………..The Peoples President!!!

The only good thing I can say about McCain is he is just one step ahead of Obama. McCain needs just to shut his mouth, give the speeches he wants and let the republicans run his campagin. Oh you might want to tell the pundits for cnn including Tubin to read texas law before going off have cocked and not telling the truth about the law. I got news for the people in the other part of the country here in texas that is a good law. Thiefs should be killed if the opportunity arises. These people are slugs to society and should be eliminated.

I think these folks attacking Obama need to come out from behind the web and step in front of the camera. Good for McCain for pulling his ads.

Anybody who compares Obama to Hitler does so out of desperation, because they have no real argument, and certainly not enough intellect, to use against him.

jon, i think you woke up in Backwards World this morning!!!

obama is exactly right, and has been from the start of this fiasco. we were called unpatriotic for not supporting a "war" that the administration now freely admits they lied us into, THAT is unpatriotic—and THAT is the neoCON republicans!

the occupation in iraq IS a disaster!

the neoCONs' "war" is unamerican and undemocratic—and soon they will pay the price for it from a parent or spouse who lost a loved one or The Hague, but either way, these criminal neoCONs are going down and i cannot wait to see it. although i'm sure that the cowardly cheney, rummy, bush, etc.. will run off to Dubai the moment their time in the WH is up—COWARDS!!!!!!!!!

- By the way, Obama has a lot of gall to campaign in Independence, the home of Harry Truman, a man who stood his ground against America's enemies.
- Want some of Harry's "glory" to rub off on you, eh, Obama? Can't be done, ever.
- Harry was a fighter, not a quitter. He weighed all the options, made a decision, and stuck with it.
- NO waffling around for Harry, as is daily the case with you, Obama.
- Think Harry would have "negotiated" with terrorists? Not on your life.
- Think Harry would have stayed in a church like yours for 20 years — or even 2 minutes? Think again.
- Harry demonstrated patriotism through courage and commitment, NOT empty slogans.
- You, Obama, can "posture" in any "symbolic" place you want.
- You're still the emperor with no clothes — and all the kiddies will continue to go "AHHH" isn't he cute! And Harry's having a good laugh.
- What IS symbolically accurate, though, is that gal offering you the shirt off her back
- Because if YOU should become president, We'll ALL need her shirt.

McShame – If you really mean it, its real simple.Just stop supporting the republicans posing as PUMA democrats on the internet.Yeah, its that simple.All you need is a lil bit of common sense to see thru this.

PUMA? really? BS !

Obama 08 !

these are right-wing republican sites branded as Hillary's……….way to divide the dems.

jr – I hope that was a joke. Did you read the article above. The PUMA folks were comparing Obama to Hitler. Hitler!

There is hate on both sides…all three sides counting McCain. I hope voters will be able to look past what idiots on blogs say.

this is same old, same old, neocon republican games—-say whatever you want, then retract it, or let someone else do your dirty work for you. thank god these immoral losers will all be gone soon!!!

"When we find stuff like this, we take care of it," said McCain spokesman Brian Rogers.

now there's a group of geniuses, they didnt realize that stop-obama.com was an anti-obama website before placing their add on it??!?! WOW, i certainly dont want people that STUPID in my white house!

Yes, this guy was a Hillary supporter but now supports McCain. Many of the Obama supporters claim Hillary and Obama are the same. NONSENSE! Hillary and McCain are close to the center. Obama and Bush are at the opposite ends of the political spectrum. I, like many Americans, are closer to the center…not unlike McCain. McCain is NOT another Bush! I have always voted for Democrats but not this time. Better ANYONE but that lefty loon Obama. I supported Hillary financially but have already sent my first check to McCain. I recently got my first request from Obama. Doubt they will write me again asking for money after the reply I sent back to their request. Can't wait for MoveOn.org to call me asking for support. Their ears will burn for a long time. McCain all the way!!!

That was a good thing. I know Obama talks highly of Mccain service to this country and his sacrifice as a prisoner of war. This is a very good sign that we may get to some real problem solving and not a lot side issues that in the long run don't serve us well.

I myself believe the Democrats to be Unpatriotic. Just look at their voting record and rhetoric (we are losing the war) over the past few years. Shame on the Democrats and shame on Obama for not being honest about all this!

its not pandiring to reach out to religious groups their are secular AND religious americans he needs to reach out to bouth …we are one nation…obama 08

If you are concerned about the deficit (aka the grandchild tax b/c we are giving it to our children and grandchildren to pay off), civil liberties, the Constitution, or inflation, neither BO or McCain will do anything for you.

Bob Barr, the Libertarian candidate, has put these issues at the top of his agenda.

Bob Barr 08

only a self pitying man who has no confidence in him being alive or being a human begs,or eats others left outs..,,and a criminal mind born out of bankrptcy of mind ( not money pls!) steals..and want to seduce others with selfish motives…..alas…politics inherents these vices since the birth of human kind….

only generation next or the people who understand it and become a guide, friend and philospher to them can earn respect…all others live in their make own believe ideas and dreams..and they finish with them…sad bu fact of one only life time….sigh….need to look other side i think…

Wow – free psychological analysis on here everyone !!!!!!

I'm sure it's from someone who is qualified. Maybe a republican that went to a psychologist once? Sure makes him qualified !!!!!!

As I read these daily blogs it has become painfully apparent to me that so many of you posters who support Obama, seem to be filled with volumes of hate and rage, and are devoid of respect for anyone including yourselves. I guess your desire to elect him is based on your need for his health care plan, which might pay all of your Psychiatric costs.

I am glad that McCain pulled ads off some of those pathetic-hate-mongering-lying web site. What have we come to?????????? Is the ONLY way to WIN to destroy your opponent???????????

What is MOST DISTURBING IS THAT THOSE PEOPLE WHOSE WEB SITES ARE SO HATEFUL AND HIDEOUS CLAIM TO BE CHRISTIANS!

HOW IS DISTORTING THE TRUTH, SLANDERING YOUR OPPONENT, ATTEMPTING TO DESTROY ANOTHER'S CHARACTER ……. CHRISTIAN?

Most of those "SWITFT BOATERS" are scared people, they are afraid that if someone whom they do not agree with is in power their way of life will be threatened! THAT'S JUST NOT TRUE!

I AM PROLIFE, IN ALL ITS FORMS, NOT JUST THE BABIES IN THE WOMB……. HOW IS BOMBING IRAN PROLIFE?

OR DRILLING IN OUR PRECIOUS NATURAL RESERVES PROLIFE?

OR ATTACKING IRAQ FOR OIL PROLIFE?

OR SENDING OUR YOUNG MEN & WOMEN TO DIE IN A WAR THAT IS ABOUT OIL PROLIFE?

OR VOTING AGAINST HEALTHCARE FOR POOR CHILDREN PROLIFE?

That's what's disturbing and pathetic about the swift-boaters. They don't think!

I am praying that we, the People, will think for ourselves this time and say NO to the madness!

I don't see anything wrong with these sites… The Truth will set us Free from the O'bots!

yes HE can! after all, Obama is the Messiah, right? i cant wait to bask in his glory, quit my job, and watch him walk on water.

Stop being such a wimp. At this rate, you'll never defeat the evil Democrat.

McCain is now with Lieberman who cries that America will be attacked. How and who? If he has that information, why cannot he provide them to autorities?

Does McCain need an attack on America by the so called TERRORISTS?

If Lieberman knowas those terrorists, I hope, they are from his JEWISH MOSSAD and no body elese.

Americans must take care of the JEWISH plans and their criminal records.

I hope a JEWISH attack may happen with the knowledge of REPUBLICAN camp!

I am so sick of Obama pandering to religious groups. He will say and do anything to get a vote. For years we Democrats were criticizing the Republicans for being the party of religion and forcing their views on the country. Now Obama is doing the same thing. Wright vs Falwell, Pfleger vs Dobson. This is sickening. If Obama is going to become a Republican, I am voting for Nader.

Human observation: when you don't have a "good product" to sell, you need to put the compeition down in order to feel and look good about yourself.

…I sometimes feel sorry for the McCain campaign…

To Literacy is for Loosers (sic):

I imagine you would think, and share the thought, that "literacy is for loosers (sic). For your enlightenment, it's "losers," not "loosers."

I see you've been able to avoid spelling in particular, as well as thinking in general. Do say something more coherent in reply to my statement. We would all appreciate that.

PS: coherent means clear and logical.

It sure took Obama long enough to say something about MoveOn. Of course he still let them fund raise for him and get out the vote during the primaries. Mr. hypocrit doesn't have the integrity to be dog catcher let alone president.

McShame and his war-mongering buddies are really giving us all the information we need to know about what the Repukes intend to do to our country.

McCain, talk of military a lot but he speak of nothing local
here a home. Wesley Clark have more military experiences
and he served in the army for 38 years on the ground. His
military background is strong than mcCain. Yes, I respect
him for his service but it not a good reason to be elected
president. This is not about the war,it's about get american
out of this mess with the economy and oil issues,which he do
not talk very much about. I can care less about Iraq and Iran.
Wesley Clark,he did nothing wrong,McCain just want to create
an problem with Obama.he have a problem himself reaching
out to american peoples. So he go out on the attack like most
republican do,he also spoke of John kerry service in the service
when ran for office,how do we forget.

At least Mccain is better and civil than Bush/Rove everwhere. You can not change repulicans, but Mccain is Better than the conservative Republicans.

Hillary—-It's time to get your devouted followers to shut up. They are a disgrace to the Democratic Party and to YOU- Unfortunately, your actions in the primary caused this. Very sad that the one's who called us cultists and kool aide drinkers throughout the Primary are the ones acting like THEY are that!

"Phil Newton Oregon July 1st, 2008 10:06 am ET

Pathetic.

Sue July 1st, 2008 10:08 am ET

McCain, just let the Americans freely express themselves. They see Obama just like I do: a tragedy for America.

Pro-choice, pro-dem July 1st, 2008 10:10 am ET

You know how whacko and extreme the bitter Clinton-istas are if even John McCain is running away from them.

They should all move to Canada. It's cold and bitter up there, just like the souls of the Clinton-istas."

Excuse me? Who said that we're cold and bitter? Besides, you guys can keep your own nutjobs.

McCain is no officer nor is he a gentleman. His style of politics is old hat, knee in the groin, stab ya in the back and smile while denying responsibility and speaking against the idea of back stabbers.

The American voter understands and rejects the mentality of "I can smear you directly, enlist my supporters to smear you, once the damage is done (another "mission accomplished") it's up to you to unring the bell.

This is not the character, values, behavior or judgment necessary to rehabilitate this country both domestically and globally.

Hey, ask McCain the reasoning for attacking Obama's religion? Why attack his origin? Why not focus on the world GWB messed up…you think!

Go Obama!

It is a good sign that the people who don't want another republican in the White House can only think of nonsense as an argument against Obama. Obama's policies are good for business, good for trade, good for America and good for the world.

Look at these comments … release his birth certificate – he did. So why keep some rumor alive. It is just like Obama said. They just want to try to make people afraid of him. Sorry, McCain is 100 times more scary than Obama.

Who wants someone who was tortured for five years to be president. What does it do to someone to endure torture, what is the psychological impact. McCain is scary. We can't afford the risk of electing McCain.

To Democrats that supported Clinton that now refuse to support Sen. Obama, I have one thing to say to YOU. You are SPINELESS!!!! You guys are a worse flip-flopper than your new guy McCain. I fail to see why you supported Hillary in the 1st place, you obviously don't care about the issues she cares about because Sen. Obama has ALMOST THE SAME EXACT VIEW ON THOSE ISSUES. I just don't understand, he's not a Muslim, he is an american and he came from NOTHING and to be where he is today is amazing. Gotta love this country!

Obama '08 + '12

I find it rather shocking that these pro-HRC websites accuse Obama supporters of being cult-like when it is actually the HRC supporters who are acting cult-like. There is no reason for these sites to compare a good man to Hitler. Come on that is just crazy!!!

I've said it before and I will say it again this election has really shown what the we the American people are; and I wouldn't call us open minded and progressive. The ignorance is astounding!!

Hey Hillary Democrat, there is NO SUCH THING SHE ISN'T RUNNING ANYMORE!

Listen, seriously, REAL Democrats, we need to start paying attention to this, I'm starting to realize a pattern. I think some people are having seriously mental issues, because they still think the primary season is still here; like January 2008, they think she still has a chance of clinching the nomination. They are stuck in the past, and can't move forward and it angers them that some people have moved on (like most of her 18 million supporters). What do they call people in total denial… a PUMA.

So these People Under Mental Anguish, don't deserve our ridicule, they need our help. We should all donate money for their therapy (instead of Clinton's campaign debt) and medication because obviously, this is some type of condition. I am starting to feel badly for you because you are stuck in this grieving process; stuck between denial and anger. I swear I think some of you wake up in the morning being mad about the primary still! I think we should start booking up therapy sessions now, before January 2009, when they are swearing him in as POTUS. We can't have them showing up all crazy a YEAR later, with signs that say "Hillary for President" and "I'm always going to be bitter about something" trying to ruin it for the rest of the country. I think we should be pro-active and help mentally ill citizens. Who's with me?

Anyone familiar with how Google ads work? It's not McCain's campaign paying these websites to advertise. It's google placing his ads on certain sites based on key words. According to the article, even Barack Obama has had problems with google ads when his ad appeard on a page for an anti Israel book. If that wasn't his fault then this isn't McCains. It's sad how certain people will react to any story about John McCain with insults and rude comments while claiming to support the candidate who wants to "change" the way politics is done in this country.

And those websites you want to blame him for? They are run by Hillary Clinton supporters who are bitter and angry about the fact that she was beaten by a man.

What ever happend to free speech? There just might be a grain (seed) of truth to the accusations and you all know what a small seed can produce when planted in the right soil.

.Hey Joe the Troll

Those were Hillary sites that McCain was pulling his adds from.

Go and check out Stop-Obama.org it is a Hillary supports site.

I am sooo sick of McBush!!!! He's sleezy and his "hit men" are not much better!!! I live in AZ and He could not get elected here today. He has NOTHING for the people of AZ–do you think he is going to do anything for the American people? Ha!! I want some one new, fresh and clean in the White HOuse to at least give us an fighting chance and Obama is that man!!!! GO OBAMA!!! AND I was a republican!!

*********************************************

I COMMEND THE EFFORT BY MCCAINS CAMPAIGN. BUT DAMAGE WAS ALREADY DONE.

YOU COULD SEE HOW TWISTED REPUBS ARE. THEY TRY TO TURN THE TABLE FOR WE ALL KNOW REPUBLICANS ARE THE ULTRA-RIGHTIST,HOMICIDAL, PARANOID MANIACS WHICH IS WHAT GERMANY WAS GOVERNED BY LEADING TO WWII.

STOP THE MADNESS. VOTE OBAMA.

.
Let's face facts.

McCain is trying to run a "FAR CLEANER" campaign than Obama is.

Obama has his cronies come out a make false statements and the comes out 2 – 3 days later to refute those statements just to make himself look above the fray.

So now it's McCain who sends his minions out to attack and then denying it so he'll look better. Isn't that what the Repubs have been accusing Obama of?

Release all 600 pages of your military record – we have a right to know.

You demanded it of Kerry, now it's demanded of you.

Hey, CNN. His records would keep you all in headlines for weeks. Why can't you go after it?

Bye bye, McCain

Sen. McCain,
You are a day late and a dollar short. How timely that your campaign issued this declaration on Monday AFTER Sen. Obama spoke out against questioning anyone's patriotism. Sure you didn't know your ads were running on anti-Obama sites. Sure you are distancing yourself from calling him (and his wife) unpatriotic and comparing him to Hitler….NOW!

You are a war hero, but with regard to this election…You're also a phony.

I'm glad McCain is doing this, but it is truly a shame that Obama has to deal with smears from the GOP and from Clinton supporters. I know that some of her more hateful supporters are Republicans but some of them really are Democrats. It is disgusting that they are resorting to spreading these lies and rumors.

The Republican Party is now marketing itself to African Americans on the basis of some of the things Clinton and her supporters have said and done in this campaign. You know it is bad when Black Republicans start running ads about how racist the Democratic party is, especially when the Republican Party has done NOTHING to level the playing field for minorities in the last 150 years!

so i guess that is where we can find the PUMA website on mccains smearing site for obama i agree with most you think mccain would learn after what BUSH KARL ROVE ETC did to him i thought john mccain said he wanted to run a clean campaign well looks to me not so clean lobbisit smear sites wheres the clean john oh thats right you flip flop so much or did you forget what you said mccain you are pathetic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The hardcore Hillary supporters are not supporting McCain……they are just voing against Obama. Birds of a feather flock together. Amazing how hypocritical humility works.

I think instead of the media giving these groups exposure…they should be EXPOSING them for what they are. A number of these groups are ran by republicans whom claim they are lifelong democrats!! Recently the founder of Puma Pac was exposed for donating to McCain's 2000 presidential campaign and voting for him in the primaries. But claims to be a "lifetime dem" Barack wasn't around then so what was your excuse? Oh wait her excuse was she was doing 'everything' in her power to prevent GWB from getting the nomination. But she never says that she supported Gore financially or by voting for him once his nomination was secured…and they call Obama the wolf in sheep's clothing. Please dems look at who you are supporting when your joining these groups!! The vast majority of Hillary's supporters are behind Barack, most of the others were Repubs anyways who crossed over just to vote for a women candidate and now they're tip toeing back over to their side and trying to take the real "lifelong" dems with them…NOt This Time..RUSH!

More Lies From The Crooked Talk Express!

I don't buy the fact that McCain's campaign was unaware of these websites spewing hatred towards Obama. Don't they vet first ?
It is very scary that there exists such hatred and ignorance towards Obama, comparing him to Hitler ? Insanity at its best. And to Mike who questions Obama's patriotiosm because he did not serve in the military….did you ? I didn't, doesn't make me any less patriotic than anyone else in this country. However, I think Obama has shown his patriosm, serving within this country as a public servant, his service to Chicago and in the Senate. I show my patriosm by being a part of society every day. Patriosm is reflected in many ways.

Good for JM, although the 527s that will perpetuate the falsehoods and innuendo will go unabated. Obama need to make sure he follows thru and deals with this stuff or he is no better

Obama a tradey american? HuH in what way sue, It's one thing not to like Obama postions but to say his a tradey to american it's just ludacris, and it shown you how stupid people really are.

McCain will lose the election if he doesn't start playing dirty like Obama's camp.

Folks these so called former HRC supporters now for McWhine are really rethuglican operatives, ala Rush Limpyouknowhat. They are doing the same job that Bush did on McSame in S.C. in the 2000 primaries. Sad. These simple idiots comparing Obama to Hitler need stronger anti-psychotic medication to bring them back to reality so that they can tell that the real comparisons to Hitler are Bush, Cheney, Rove! And they want McBush as president? Give me a break!

OLD dirty man playing OLD dirty politics!!! can't teach an old dog new tricks thats why Obamas hitting him so hard.

Won't it be easier to say that Senator Clinton campaign was negative enough to cause all these bitter supporters of hers.

I for one, was her supporter till PA voting but then realised that for her its all about her. no Country,nothing.

anyway, the country won't worse than it did in last 8 years or will it? we have to think …………

mccain is a hypocrite and will hurt our great country even more if you agree whith bush on irac taxs suprem court judges offsor drilling whats left for him to be diffrent The Keating Five were five United States Senators accused of corruption one of them was jhon mccain icant trust and never will…….he just wants to be elected…also….
the media is selling mccain and a new war in iran whith it …..BEING A PRISONER OF WAR FOR 5 YEARS ONLY QUALIFIES YOU TO BE IN A MENTAL INSTITUTE…. MCCAIN IS NOT FIT TO BE PRESIDENT ..BOTH MENTALLY AND PHYSICALLY…NO MORE PLAYING NICE THE COUNTRY'S FUTURE IS AT STAKE ….VOTE FOR NEW LEADERSHIP VOTE DEMOCRAT…OBAMA 08 …

Clinton, no, wait, McCain Supporter: "Any criticism of BO is met with hate and condescension. "

Really? Actually, I see more initial offerings of hate and outpourings of derision against BO in the first place. A lot of us are just responding to this absolute drivel you people feel the need to "bless" us with. How can you call Obama all of these things (thief, liar, racist, sexist, Hitler?!?!?!) and expect it to be "criticism," but any response is a slander? Bottom line: You shouldn't be running a campaign on hate. Period.

PUMAs, NoBamas, and maybe even a few VotePact people don't seem to grasp the maturity that you have to do what you say before you can tell other people what is what. All those hate web sites are ten times closer to Nazis than anything Obama could say. Like the white supremecist literature that people throw on my lawn at 3 in the morning because they are too cowardly to hate in broad daylight.

Just stop the hate. Period. Read my text: YOUR… ACTIONS… ARE… RIDICULOUS!

Thank you for posting, CNN.

Do you really expect me to believe that McCain and his staff had no clue as to those adds. Give me a break, American's as a whole are a lot smarter than that.
On a different note, those so called Hillary supporters that are running those questionable sites; are they or were they really Hillary supporters? I would argue that those sites are truly being run by republicans that followed the "Rush" policy of just voting to build up Hillary's numbers. Or they are actually republicans running those sites pretending to be Hillary supporters, that way the republicans will not have to take any heat for their ugly, hateful, and very degrading sites. This year politics are stooping to a new and very ugly level and the owners of those sites should be thankful they live in America, as this is the only country where truth is not relevent.

There's nothing wrong with going after Obama's record but it's disappointing to see how mccain control of the media remains unchallenged.
Our nation is controlled by the rich and the cooperate media!

John McCon, once again a day late and dollar short. Congratulations.

SENATOR OBAMA CONTINUOUSLY REFUSES TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE ACTIONS OF HIS SUPPORTERS. HE AIMS TO BENEFIT FROM THEIR ACTS WITHOUT EVER ACKNOWLEDGING OR ADMITTING THEM. THIS IS A PATTERN WITH SENATOR OBAMA — ONE WHICH SHOULD GIVE EVEN HIS SUPPORTERS PAUSE.

How can he stop his supporter from say what they want…..people like you want to find a reason to not to vote for Obama……please stop it.

HEY ALL YOU SELF SMUG RIGHT WINGERS WHO THINK YOU ARE HOLYIER THAN THOU, AT LEAST CNN LETS YOU BLOG YOUR CRAP

I TRY TO LEAVE A BLOG ON YOUR RIGHT WING FOX NEWS AND THEY WONT ALLOW IT (they say that they are fair and balanced)
YEA RIGHT……

CNN IS THE NEWS STATION THAT ALLOWS ALL VIEWS………FOX

ALWAYS SLAMS ANYONE WHO IS A DEMOCRAT.

The Clinton campaign controlled the media coverage of this process from the beginning and continued to do so. The idea that Obama has received favorable coverage is nonsense.
Mccain now want to pick up when Clinton left off. How sad this is!

If Obama wants to show some of us that he is patriotic, then he should: Face the American Flag
Put is right hand over his heart, and
Sing "OUR National Anthem"!!!!

Or, is that going to be part of "CHANGE"

Senator McCain can spend his money where he wants to spend it or not. Although I'm not voting for McCain, good for him. These websites used for spreading slander and lies are garbage and won't last long once people understand they are only about making money off of hate.

McCain on NAFTA-related job losses:

"I understand it''s very tough. But for me to give up my advocacy of free trade would be a betrayal of trust…"

You understand nothing, my friend. You have no idea.

Your "Trust" is the one holding your wife''s beer money.

What fool would vote for this man?

To GG, NYC:
To quote you accurately when you were accusing Clinton supporters of not getting it:
"What about protecting (rather than destroying) a woman's right to choose?
-What about ending the senseless war in Iraq?
-What about the economy? Do you think McCain has a plan other than a "gas tax holiday"? He doesn't.
-What about the supreme court justices to be nominated by the next president?
-What about social justice and repairing America's damaged image and connections abroad?"

My reply: What about them?

It's kind of like the Britney Spears media mentality… more drama sales… build em up to tear 'em down! In the long run, I feel it's very destructive…

If it is not true, then CNN shouldn't report it either!

MCCain does the right thinsg and you obamites still bash him for it. Get a life. Better yet, get a candidate that has more than 5 minutes experience.

It is ridiculous for the McCain campaign to say it is "powerless" to prevent advertising on web sites that include indecent, hateful (of women, blacks, people with big ears), unamerican, or sophomoric content.

Stop being lazy and investigate the media outlet, the web site, BEFORE you give them your ad content and your money, it's that simple.

If you don't, it will only RE-ENFORCE to the general public that you are not computer, internet, google, yahoo, twitter, facebook, or YouTube savvy.

You also said the same thing with regards to public funding restraints for the campaign with Obama. Had you not said, " I can not referee Republican-leaning 527s", Obama probably would have not opted out. You know that was the deal, John. In the end, that was the root cause.

Such weak statements also call into question your actual leadership capability; how do you get things accomplished when you can't ORDER them to be done?

How do you get them done when the people required don't WORK for YOU, John? We're not seeing that in your experience claim.

Being the President IS NOT like the military where you have a chain of command and people have to SALUTE and execute based on your rank.

it is about time the press started reporting the truth and not just going along for the ride.
maybe we should start calling the political media the pollirozzi!!

The more slime the Republicans throw at him the more I see why Barack Obama is the better candidate.
I liked McCain eight years ago before he was grumpy. Now he is aging and embracing most of the policies of GW bush. Have you all seen the president's approval ratings???
Who in the USA would vote for someone who is 95% the same as this present administration? The people that miss Ronald Reagan? This guy is not Ronald Reagan. The 'maverick' of eight years ago was a good guy and he is missed.
Obama in 08!

Judging from the number of voters who supported Hillary and are now claiming to support McCain, it is confirmed that Hillary would have been the wrong choice for the Democrats.

As a previous writer points out, most of McCain's positions on the issues are the exact opposite of Hillary's. Most of Hillary's positions are the same or similar to Obama's.

So explain to me why you "Hillary/McCain" supporters were behind Hillary in the first place? I'm really curious.

I love this, the Dems have finally shed off the racist from their midst.

Last nite on C-SPAN, there was this bigot who supported HRC and now

McSame. He said the world would view America like a 3rd world country if

it elected BHO. Thats how your bigotry can be exposed to the whole

world.

I thought I heard it all from ignorant politicians, but the remarks for the Irepublican iowa Senator Steve King is the HEIGHT of ignorance! And to think he is representing the citizens of IOWA! He needs to retract his bold face lies. I have been a Republican since God was a little boy and for the first time I will be voting Democratic – OBAMA to be precise! OBAMA is NOT MUSLIM and actually if you watch the news, Hussain is a name of honor "From the Arabic personal name, Husayn, derived from the Arabic hasuna, meaning "to be good" or "to be handsome or beautiful"

You, Mr King I rate right up there with theClinton tactics!

I like it. Obama leads and McCain follows.

Unfortunately, many of these "Democrats" who supported Hillary are now saying they support or will support McCain. Unless you are rich and not in the military, you would have enjoyed GW Bush's presidency over the last 7 years! How can any informed American, let alone Democrat, seriously contemplate voting for another Bush term in the guise of John McCain?!

If Hillary is supporting Obama, why aren't her supporters? The similiar positions of Hillary and Obama on major issues has not changed. So why are a few of these folks so anti-Democrat now?

Mcshame will turn into Bush if he got in office Right now he is just Lying to the voters to get elected but he don't agree with 527s because of what bush did to him in 2000 but this is 2008 and Mcshame is a flip flooper

A spokesman for McCain said Monday the campaign was not aware their ads were running on the offending Web sites, and has taken steps to block those sites from their online advertising network……….
YEA BUT…………………McNightmare…………IS attacking……….Obama can't be TRUSTED……..Carter……….LOUSY President ………..TALK about the ISSUES !!!

Thank you Mccain for speaking up. Obama is a patriotic American who left a lucrative job to work with Ordinary people who were suffering. Obama has never been bitter of his dad leaving him and has never made race an issue in this campaign. He was always gracious to Hillary and her campaign. Now that he has made it this far we would love to see him being our next president.
Graciaous mccain!

Obama all the way!

Yeah right, "they weren't aware".

Hillalry Clinton did all of this negative stuff. Obama don't need the Clintons to win the Clintons did do much demand to our party. Hilliary thought to highly of herself and didn't believe she would lose to a black man. So all her sore losers supporters keep saying they will not support Obama. Please quite saying that and just support McSame. McSame is going to need more than Clintons's sore losers supports to win. Obama/Richardson 2008

I bet McBush doesn't even know what running advertisements on a website means.

WHERE ARE THE MAJOR NEWS NETWORKS WITH THEIR REPORTES AND COMMENTATORS????

IF THESE COMMENTS OR ADDS HAD COME FROM THE OTHER SIDE THE NEWS NETWORKS AND COMMENTATORS WOULD BE ALL OVER THEM WITH DAY LONG COVERAGE AND INTERVIEWS.

PLEASE GET TO THE SUBSTANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Obama fans do, indeed, have the same cult mentality that put Adolph into power, as witnessed by these blogs. Any criticism of BO is met with hate and condescension. Even though Obama has finally recognized publicly the extraordinary contributions of both Clintons, his followers continue their hate-filled remarks. It's coming to the point where he has no control over them – or does he?

His double messages throughout the campaign and his well-placed surrogates make the picture of these followers as genuinely mentally enslaved. I don't which is worse: that Americans should be taken in by this behavior and elect him or that we should not and elect McCain.

A McCain victory may well be accompanied by violence, particularly in the inner cities, where BO holds the image of a demi-god. Well, we have inner city violence down now. We know how to handle it.
But a BO victory will introduce measures of Americans"
"loyalty" to him and make pc critical everywhere. I wonder if we'll see the re-introduction of McCarthy style hearings regarding loyalty.

McCain is going after all the phony Hillary supporters who really didn't respect her or trust her judgment, like when she said she "hopes and prays" her supporters will support Obama.

Wow…..these bloggers are sad and bitter people.

I was Hillary's supporter but I can never vote Mccain.
Obama and Hillary were 95% close on issues.
what makes CNN think we are going to vote for Mccain?

Obama 08,12,16,20……………………

I think these so-called, "Clinton Supporters" are actually Republicans pretending to be Democrats in the attempt to seperate the Democratic party. Anyone who compares Obama to Hilter obivously needs some mental help. I wish we could go back to the days of the plain old regular Newspaper sometimes. Blogs have been damaging to the political process.

we saw this movie b4. Now CNN want to start negative stuff on Obama in an educated way. I hope this is not second round after the Clintons!

You know I'm getting ticked at the fact that Obama has to be this monster crazy man because he is running for office. Really? You mean to tell me that there wasn't any crazies out their before Obama was even born. People are so afraid of what the man can do.

For the Hillary supporters that will not vote for Obama…you all are digging your own grave. Obama hasn't done anything to Hillary for them to act with such malice. I bet that they are republicians and have been all along. So, we really don't need your support and keep you hatred (website) to yourselves. Talk about a cult, I would think that they are trying to start a cult against Obama. I will pray for you all!!!

These specious comparisons with Hitler are really juvenile.

Obama's audiences have the same cult mentality that characterized followers of Hitler? How about the same cult mentality that characterized followers of Ghandi? or Mandela? or Jesus?

Why does it always have to be Hitler?

So McCain – when are you going to start apologizing for what your supporters say about Obama?

The best thing about this article is the bit about Mitt Romney advertising on gay.com. You just couldn't make that up…

Talk of the CNN turning it's back on Obama!

How would I vote for mccain who is worth over 100m dollarys?

CNN, you need to stop dividing us!
Stop doing the dirty work for Mccain.
You even leave his campaign even up your pannel running even when campaign is over, the whole day as a way to advertise for him. Now I see you are on his camp. Time to get your act together and treat obama with some dignity!

This is becoming a pattern with the McCain campaign… do the nasty then make a big story out of saying you won't do it anymore 'cos you're so pure and high-minded.

Baloney. Just yesterday, it was turning Clark's comment about whether being a POW per se should be considered to be qualifying presidential experience into "a smear on McCain's war record" (which it was not). The outrage and denial become the story.

I'm not buying this new tactic. After 8 years of Dubbya, I'm smarter than that. McCain may be a computer moron, but his campaign workers aren't.

SENATOR OBAMA CONTINUOUSLY REFUSES TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE ACTIONS OF HIS SUPPORTERS. HE AIMS TO BENEFIT FROM THEIR ACTS WITHOUT EVER ACKNOWLEDGING OR ADMITTING THEM. THIS IS A PATTERN WITH SENATOR OBAMA — ONE WHICH SHOULD GIVE EVEN HIS SUPPORTERS PAUSE.

If an internet ad influences your vote, you're retarded

Brilliant, run ads as long as you can, and then pretend like you didn't know and pull the ad. What a great commander and chief you would make McCain, you have just as much control over your hair loss as you do your campaign. Next time you campaign at a retirment home, just check in and call it quits.

Interesting they just happen to pull these ads after Obamas speech yesterday. If the tables had been turned we would have heard McCain’s whinny camp complaining all day long. What has the Obama campaign said about this issue? Nothing.

Ask CNN to do you the dirty job!

Thank you CNN!!!!!. For pointing out these horrible, dishonest and misleading websites. Unbelievable, and the GOP had the audacity to whine, and complain about General Clark's statement.

Democrats unite!!!!!

It's too bad Obama doesn't have the decency to run a clean campaign.

oh, gosh. you silly, bitter, ex-clinton supporters. get over it like i did. obama is better than mccain any day.

What do you call a Presidential candidate who loves his country, wants the best for the average person, and believes that the people should run America, but could not win the Presidency because of his race? Barack Obama.

What do you call a Presidential candidate who didn't love his country until he became a POW, has always supported the rich, cheated on his wife, cheated his state, hates military members and should not be able to run for the Presidency, but could win because he is white? John McCain.

He could just have removed the ads without telling us what they said or what they are. This is another way to swiftboat Obama. I see you through your lenses Mccain. You are going to loose and loose big!

These websites are offensive and, thankfully, according to the most recent polls, aren't working!!

If you participate in any of them and you "claim" to be a Hillary Clinton supporter you must be lying. If you care at all about politics or the world, you would not support McCain after supporting Hillary.

-What about protecting (rather than destroying) a woman's right to choose?
-What about ending the senseless war in Iraq?
-What about the economy? Do you think McCain has a plan other than a "gas tax holiday"? He doesn't.
-What about the supreme court justices to be nominated by the next president?
-What about social justice and repairing America's damaged image and connections abroad?

OBAMA /BIDEN '08

A constitution scholar and a pow, who is more patriotic?

Why are you crazy? Are your feelings hurt enough to where you would donate money to attack your fellow democrat, Senator Obama? Is it b/c you're all sore losers? I'm beginning to think they're a bunch of republicans saying they were former Clinton supporters and are now against Obama.

PS Don't call yourself democrats anymore

CNN you are dirty and in the pocket of Obama….how are your ratings?????

I am sure McCain stopped right away and never knew it was anti Obama. NOT!

OBAMA WILL BE PRESIDENT AND THE STUPID HILLARY SUPPORTERS CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT.

If there are Democrats that used to support Hillary that feel Obama is like Hitler and now want to support McCain then I say let him keep them! We do not need people like that in the Democratic Party. Our country needs help. It isn't getting it from the Republicans, actually the opposite. We need to get behind Obama and support him and the Democratic Party.

"A spokesman for McCain said Monday the campaign was not aware their ads were running on the offending Web sites"

What a crock. When McCain's campaign does stuff like this, they are patronizing the American public – they think we actually believe this?

Same old tricks…

Man, some Clinton supporters are a bunch of crybabies. What's going to really be fun is when they vote for McCain, he wins, and then they realize that they just earned themselves at least four more years of Bush.

McWho cares… I don't even read these articles when they have his name in them because the topics are always the same… he's just so… BLAH.

Any group claiming to be pro-Hillary while trying to slander Obama never were truly Hillary supporters … they are simply self-serving foolish and without the mental compentancy to see that McCain in no way actually represents their self-serving agenda! Hell hath no furry like self-serving middle-aged women scorned!

I do not like John McCain, but at the very least he has a more civil tone than George W Bush ever has.

ya, you thought you could keep saying Obama this Obama that and you won't be attacked or swiftboated? Now I am thinking what makes you more qualified to be a commander in chief. Being a POW, or riding 35000 feet as a pilot doesn't mean you are more patriotic than Obama or more qualified than Obama. He is has a more compelling story than you do!

How come everytime there is a political ticker entry about Sen. McCain it is about action, policy or leadership. But most of the one's about Sen. Obama are about having shirts offered to him, riding a bike, talking to someone on the phone, about how uninteresting he is or something trivial like that? Kind of makes you wonder, doesn't it?

The only "anti-Obama" website you need to visit is vote nader (dot) org. Check it out. It's more useful than any of the ones mentioned above.

** Nader/Gonzalez 2008 **

No more speeches for Obama only debates.

Glad to see McCon pulled his ads, but just like most other things his upfront judgement was bad and he had to go back and correct his actions. Just like New Orleans and the latest Midwest floods, McCon is a day late and a dollar short.

These Obama haters who now support McCain are nuts. How do you compare Obama to Hitler? Why would you claim to be a democrat and than support a republican just to make a point Obviously they only liked Clinton because she was a woman. If they believed in her ideas they would vote for a democrat.

This is good, for a beginning. Now maybe McCain can do something about all of the LIES that his surrogates are distributing. That "Rezko helped to buy his house" Lie for example. The whitey Lie. Unpatriotic Lie, the he's Muslim Lie. The GOP Lies are endless. I'm so happy that he has taken the time to clear up this misleading information on his website under fight the smears.

DEMOCRATS UNITE!!!

The McCain campaign is pure scum. I can not wait until election night when the votes come in and McCain gets pounded 49-40.

This man is toooooooooooo old and senial. Did anyone every think he might have PTSD after his experience in Vietnam. This is one man whos finger should be no where near the red button. God help us all if he is elected, this country will be a third world one.

Nice of Senator McCain to do so.
Looks like Senator Obama was the trailblazer in this – he took very similar action 9 months ago.

Poor innocent McCain, he didn't know.
One of his chief advisors is an expert on smear
campaigning.
You would think after what Bush/Rove did to him with
smears he would want to run a cleam campaign.
Evidently not.

You know how whacko and extreme the bitter Clinton-istas are if even John McCain is running away from them.

They should all move to Canada. It's cold and bitter up there, just like the souls of the Clinton-istas.

McCain, just let the Americans freely express themselves. They see Obama just like I do: a tragedy for America.

Pathetic.
