Cindy McCain said Obama is running a dirty campaign.
Cindy McCain said Obama is running a dirty campaign.

(CNN) — Cindy McCain lashed out at Barack Obama Tuesday, telling a Tennessee newspaper the Illinois senator has waged the "dirtiest campaign in American history."

The comments came hours before her husband, Republican nominee John McCain, was slated to square off with the Illinois senator at the second presidential debate, and are among her harshest to date of her husband's rival for the White House.

Speaking to the Tennessean, Cindy McCain also said her husband would use Tuesday night's town hall forum as an opportunity to correct what she suggested were misleading statements from the Obama campaign.

“What I have found is that it’s necessary to make sure the American people understand what we have to say, what we stand for as a husband and wife, and what we will do for the American people if we’re lucky enough to be elected,” Mrs. McCain also told the paper.

Both presidential campaigns have stepped up the intensity of their attacks, with only four weeks remaining until Election Day. The McCain campaign raised Obama's past relationship to 1960's radical William Ayers over the weekend, prompting the Democratic nominee’s campaign to unleash a 13-minute documentary Web video Monday detailing the Arizona senator’s involvement in the Keating Five scandal.

In an admitted effort to turn the dominating narrative away from the nation's ailing economy, McCain’s campaign also launched a new offensive against Barack Obama's trustworthiness Monday, releasing a new campaign ad that asks "Who is Barack Obama?", and tells voters the Illinois senator is 'lying' about his record.

Cindy McCain - its hard for you guys to worry about the economy when you're loaded with millions and out of touch! Get a clue….its the economy stupid, and that's no lie!

is she living on this earth

John in KY   October 7th, 2008 7:56 pm ET

This shows her intelligence (NONE)!

Dave, Illinois   October 7th, 2008 7:56 pm ET

Cindy is correct. Read the comments from the Obamite thugs on these blogs and you realize the mentality that might elect that dirty Chicago politician. ACORN is already using Chicago tactics to register dead and imaginary voters. One of their offices was raided today.

Syed Shamsuddoha   October 7th, 2008 7:55 pm ET

Cindy McCain should tell her husband to be faithful to the American people and not to twist the facts for gains. McCain is the one started the mudsling. McCain and his running mate even don't have proper education to understand the Americans. Americans understand the value of education and honesty - both are missing in McCain and Sarah Palin.

Cheers.

How Stupid Do You Think We Are?   October 7th, 2008 7:55 pm ET

Who's got the forum insinuating the other candidate's the Anti-Christ?

Oh yeah. McCain.

Game over. There's literally nothing Obama can possibly do to stoop to the level of filthy mudslinging that John Sidney McCain's has resorted to. Stop lying, Cindy. Unlike Palin, you actually probably KNOW what you're saying.

Your husband's running the dirtiest campaign since John Quincy Adams claimed that Andrew Jackson was literally going to hang Americans if he was elected, and spread such vicious rumors about Jackson's wife that she died from the stress. That's the only candidate who's stooped lower than McCain.

Madam, you are not good enough to tie Obamas shoes.

Richard   October 7th, 2008 7:55 pm ET

Go back and continue to count all your millions Cindy, we don't care what you think. Us common folks will continue to try and scratch out a living under the crushing hand that your party has dealt us.

Independent Female Voter   October 7th, 2008 7:55 pm ET

Lady, give us a break! Do you think that we are that gullible and stupid? Your husband started this crap and now you are mad because Obama is striking back? You GOP folk are used to dishing it out and not used to getting it back. It may have worked with Kerry but there is a new sheriff in Dodge now, so stop letting your mouths write checks that your butt can't cash or get out of Dodge! Palin may be the pittbull with lipstick (not to mention an insult to all intelligent women) but Obama and Biden are the dog catchers that will shut her down. Stop LYING and attacking Obama and talk about the issues Mrs. Keating Five!

Obama/ Biden 08

Linda   October 7th, 2008 7:55 pm ET

Interesting that she keeps saying "we". "What we have to say", "what we stand for", "if we're lucky enought to be elected". And I wouldn't say that either present candidate is running the "dirtiest campaign in American history". I believe that honor goes to our current Commander In Thief"!

MarioB. from Berlin for OBAMA/BIDEN   October 7th, 2008 7:55 pm ET

what the heck???

She's so out of touch!
This hoe has no idea of what's going on. This is really desperating and outrageous and laughable!!!

Obama/Biden in a landslide!

Wake Up   October 7th, 2008 7:55 pm ET

What a joke of a website - full of ignorant, clueless, mindless Obama sujpporters. I just wish I had the opportunity to debate each and every one of you off the stage.

AH   October 7th, 2008 7:54 pm ET

who is cindy kidding? Well, at least that will make good material for snl
Palin: Obama is paling around with a bad guy form chicago
Mccain: Obama is a liar
Palin: Obama hates America
Crowd: "terrrorist", "kill him"
Cindy: We are running the cleanest campaign in US history.

Shirley Ralston (Canada)   October 7th, 2008 7:54 pm ET

Is she saying it with a straight face!! Talk about calling the kettle black.

yasmine   October 7th, 2008 7:54 pm ET

you have got to be kidding… your husband invented "dirty campaigns"… go sit down and comb your hair… call McCain's ex-wife and beg for her forgiveness for helping to distroy her life..

Nora, MN   October 7th, 2008 7:54 pm ET

Cindy had better keep an eye on sneaky Sara and wandering eye Johnny.

ben   October 7th, 2008 7:54 pm ET

I can't believe she'd say something as bold as this considering who started this mess. Maybe mcSame should use the debate time to tell us what he really stands for regarding the American People.

Sharon   October 7th, 2008 7:54 pm ET

HAS SHE WATCHED THE HIT PIECES HER HUSBAND IS RUNNING???? SHE MAY BE CONFUSED- JOHN MCCAIN IS RUNNING A DIRTY CAMPAIGN AND FOR THAT REASON, I WILL
NOT VOTE FOR HIM-

25 YEARS AS PART OF THE PROBLEM AND NOW HE HAS NEW IDEAS???

Ariel   October 7th, 2008 7:54 pm ET

Does she live in Fantasyland? The McCain camp came out and said they intended to run a mudslinging campaign. That's dirty in my book.

sj   October 7th, 2008 7:54 pm ET

Well I guess if he (McCain) can talk his VP to start waging a war of negative words, why can't he get his wife to do the same. It seems odd that she would make those comments, when her husbands campaign started the, "he's pals with domestic terrorists." Talk about calling the kettle black!!! ooooppps, I guess I shouldn't have said that huh?
Although I would have to say last Friday nights episode of the Daily Show was right on…..McCain and "his" supporters truly are beginning to "act" like the "black" candidate.

maryland   October 7th, 2008 7:54 pm ET

What are you talking about cindy??
Have you heard Sarah palin talk lately?

Deb, Allentown,PA   October 7th, 2008 7:54 pm ET

This statement is ridiculous. Utterly without merit.

Obama has tried to keep this positive. Granted, he's had some ads that could be construed as "negative", but nothing to the extent of the vitriol, lies and misrepresentations coming from McCain and Palin.

I just saw a wonderful commercial of Obama's. He mentioned McCain twice in the commercial, both times in the context of comparing his economic policies to those of McCain's.

Now compare that with the 100% negative advertising that the McCain campaign has admitted they'll run for the rest of this election.

I want someone who believes in America and our future, who believes in hope over hate, and who wants our future to be positive.

I want Obama and Biden!!!!

Hispanic for Obama   October 7th, 2008 7:54 pm ET

Haha wow…

And now Im switching my vote from Obama to McCain because of Cyndi. She's so great…Thanks for knowing what the American people want.

Nichole, IL   October 7th, 2008 7:53 pm ET

…what we [the McCains] will do for the American people if we’re [McCains] lucky enough to be elected…

The McCains are the gift that just keeps on giving. There is just no end to their chutzpah. I guess they borrowed theirs from Independent Sen. Lieberman. Say it ain't so, Joe.

Obama/Biden 08   October 7th, 2008 7:53 pm ET

The irony… the irony…

ben   October 7th, 2008 7:53 pm ET

i'm pretty sure it's the other way around cindy. barack is talking about issues. your husband is talking about… well, i'm not sure if even he knows what he's talking about at this point.

mitch   October 7th, 2008 7:53 pm ET

omg! i cant believe she has the nerve! hows ur retirement doin ,cindy?

Lynn: 60 yr old white Obama supporter   October 7th, 2008 7:53 pm ET

She always stands behind McCain at his speeches like a statue…I guess she WAS just pretending to listen!!

Judy   October 7th, 2008 7:53 pm ET

The nerve of Cindy McCain. Her husband is the one who started the smear campaign. Obama has every right to respond in kind. And I would like to know what office she is running for when saying "if we are lucky …"? As far as I know, her name is not on the ballot.

rdf   October 7th, 2008 7:53 pm ET

I think more and more people are understanding. McCain/Palin deal in fear and hate. I did like John McCain but I guess it's the evil he brought on board that sealed his pact with the devil. I do pray that they do not get into the white house.

Onlywayisleft   October 7th, 2008 7:53 pm ET

I thought she was no longer a drug addict she must be haveing a flash back! Talk about denial…

rumpusgoopus   October 7th, 2008 7:53 pm ET

It's official: the Republicans are truly living in a bizarro world.

kathy ng.   October 7th, 2008 7:53 pm ET

Obama is running a dirty campaign? All politicians are running dirty campaign in my opinion. Did Sarah Palin just go around to criticize Obama's character? Is that dirty? We are in a major economy crisis, they just go around to talk about character? I strongly think that 8 years under Bush is more than enough. We need change. As a voter, I am not 100% sure if Obama/Biden ticket can turn around the economy, but knowing that senator Mc Cain is about the same as the current president, I think we should take a chance to go with Obama/Biden ticket.
Watching Sarah Palin going around criticizing Obana just make me want to turn off the TV. Senator Mc. Cain should regret for not selecting Mitt Romney as his VP.

Roger   October 7th, 2008 7:53 pm ET

It is easy to make that statement when you don't have to back it up with facts or answer questions about your own husbands campaign that his own party is saying is taking the low road.

Obama is going to tax you big time.

Wendy   October 7th, 2008 7:52 pm ET

No that's the most hypocritical statement so far. Sad how they whine when they are losing. :(

Kentucky   October 7th, 2008 7:52 pm ET

Gee maybe she should leave the spa at the country club and find the nearest television. Then look at a news program {cnn} about her hubby and Palin telling lies about Obama. Cindy, just because your husband and Palin sink to new levels, do you have to sink with them?

David   October 7th, 2008 7:52 pm ET

Obama is running the 'dirtiest campaign' ever?

Okay, can we all agree who is out of touch now?

Andy   October 7th, 2008 7:52 pm ET

Was there a typo? Did Cindy mean McCain was running the dirtiest campaign? I think trying to suggest that Obama is a terrorist is about as low as a candidate can go.

Alameda Chris   October 7th, 2008 7:52 pm ET

Wow. Have they been keeping her locked in a closet???
I am speechless.

James   October 7th, 2008 7:52 pm ET

From what I see so far, it has been McSame who is playing dirtiest campaign in American history.
attacked after attacked, until Obama has to strike back and now Cindy is crying fool.

could you give me a car and a home..I just had 3 boys finish college
and I'm broke..Just thought that I would ask ?

All I could think of when I read Mrs. McCain's comment was that she might be hitting the medicine cabinet again!

What planet have you been living on in the past week Mrs McPlastic?
Your old grumpy husband and his airhead pageant queen have been throwing every Karl Rovian sleezy thing from the kitchen sink at Obama since McLosers failed campaign has sunk even lower in the polls.

OBAMA/BIDEN '08/12!

Kescia   October 7th, 2008 7:52 pm ET

Really, Cindy? Even dirtier than the Rove machine sending out flyiers in the 2000 Republican Primary in NC alleging that your husband had an iligitimate Black baby? Even dirtier than Bush using you drug theft and addiction to impeach your husbands character? Oh wait….your husband now employs Karl Rove to launch the same filthy tactics on Barack Obama. Barack Obama has only responded to the lies and attacks your husband perpetuates.

Zach   October 7th, 2008 7:51 pm ET

This is surely a joke. Obama's campaign is not even the dirtiest in this election. Regardless, Cindy McCain seriously must be clueless if she really believes that this is the dirtiest election in history. There have been Republicans (George W. Bush) who have been dirtier to McCain than Obama has been so far.

Cathy Conley   October 7th, 2008 7:51 pm ET

Mike Wagner   October 7th, 2008 7:51 pm ET

The Secret Service is following up on media reports today that someone in the crowd at a McCain/Palin event suggested killing Barack Obama, according to Secret Service spokesman Malcolm Wiley. The shout of "kill him" followed a Sarah Palin rant on Obama's relationship with radical Chicagoan Bill Ayers.

This after Palin got the crowd worked up with her Hate Mongering.
This kind of leadership we can live without forever.
If Cindy McCain wants to defend this behavior then she can, but she looks like a fool for doing it.

Cindy McCain: You have turned a blind eye, and deaf ears to your husband and his dirty campaigning, lying about Barack Obama on the trail, and now you are suppose to be the voice of reason? You are honestly defending your husband when the entire world has been observing, listening to your husband spew his anger and bitterness and lies. Please. Give us a break Mrs. McCain. You personally know that John McCain is a very contentious person. You know. You really do.

Dave   October 7th, 2008 7:51 pm ET

This from the same campaign that said "we can't talk about the economy or we will lose". Another distraction.

Why don't you try talking about the issues McCain?

Let the truth speak CNN   October 7th, 2008 7:50 pm ET

That is hilarious..the McCain campaign is insighting hate against Obama..Palin is the most evil mouthpiece ever.. get a grip Cindy.. you have had one too many facelifts you along with John have lost your berings!

Cynthia - Arkansas   October 7th, 2008 7:50 pm ET

YOU HAVE TO BE KIDDING ME! What planet are these people living on? Do they think people aren't keeping up at all? McShame and Palin have done nothing but lie and throw mud all week. Where has she been? Maybe too pilled up to notice? I think I would be, if I were married to a bumbling old fool who had revealed that he has no honor or character at all. P. S. Who cares what Cindy McShame says anyway? I will be so glad when this is over with and I don't have to hear McShame whine around or hear Palin do her "Aw, Shucks" act.

Using Cindy McCain to cry poor us after their party launched a salvo of attacks over the weekend is par for them I suppose. The whole McCain campaign is shameful and pathetic.

Kami in Arizona   October 7th, 2008 7:50 pm ET

Cindy, you must not be seeing what I am seeing then! Obama has run a very postive campaign and only hit back after McCain stated his negative attacks.

Nice try Cindy but we all know who is really running the negitive campaing, and it snot Obama.

victor,nj   October 7th, 2008 7:50 pm ET

The repugs have become the party of bigots and ignorance. What is sad is that they claim to be christians with moral values. They now have supporters calling Barack terriorists and chanting "kill him" at rally. Even the sheriff that is policing the town where a rally was held is refering Obama as Barack Hussein Obama. When did the name Hussein become the symbol of terriorism or when did all people of muslim religion are identified as terriorist. If that is the case I guess all catholics are petifilers or all momons wed teenagers. Or better wet why not condemn everyone named George because of Bush. It is sad that the repugs are so terrified of a potential black president.

If anything happens to Obama, McCain and Palin are to be blamed!!!

Really, I suppose it is alarming that she feels she can get away with such an outrageous twisting of the facts. If you want to see the dirtiest campaign in history, Mrs. McCain, take a long hard look at yourself.

please   October 7th, 2008 7:50 pm ET

that's right, cause Joe is out there calling McCain a terrorist. Lady, go back and get another face lift or something. I cannot wait for this to be over so you can go back to your mansions and leave us alone.

Greg Des Rosiers, BSN, RN   October 7th, 2008 7:50 pm ET

Like I care what that Stepford Wife-wannabe Cindy McCain has to say about Barack Obama or the election. She is a vapid, self-absorbed 'Daisy Buchanan', married to a pathetic old troll who is becoming more unhinged every day. She needs to fade into the background and be the doting caregiver for the doddering old fool. NOW.

WOW. Politicians will do anything to win.

Lie, Cheat, throw mud to cover up and skirt the issues.

No one has done anything out of the ordinary that the other has not done themselves, so shut your pie hole and talk about, well, lie and make promises that you cannot keep once you're in office, just like every other politician.

Dirtiest campaign ever? What castle in an all white neighborhood did she just finally get outside from?

Nice try Cindy, thankfully most Americans know your past and realize that you certainly have no credibility.

IndependentThinker   October 7th, 2008 7:50 pm ET

look who's talking
Seemingly voters don't share your view as far as dirty campaigns are concerned cause when they are asked through polls they think that McCain is the one who is running the sleaziest campaign
Obviously we're living in a democratic country therefore you have the right to have your own approach of things

martie   October 7th, 2008 7:49 pm ET

you've got to be kidding me! Obama is doing what Kerry and Gore failed to do…immediately fight back…Repubs have no choice right now, they can't talk about the issues so the next best thing is to try and create smears! Wake up Cindy, you won't be in the White house come Jan!!

JMV, NY   October 7th, 2008 7:47 pm ET

Seriously? You should turn on your tv sometime, Cindy. He's not even running the dirtiest campaign of this campaign. Also, any other candidate would have brought up McCain's shameful involvement in the Keating scandal months ago.

Aaron from Battleground Ohio   October 7th, 2008 7:47 pm ET

I knew this would happen. Cindy McCain is scared that hubby won't win and she won't be first lady. They are so materialistic and the office of the presidency is just another notch in their belts. They don't care about the little people in this country, they just care about themselves.
