These are the same inbreds who voted for Bush!

This is another example of McCain's erratic leadership. Their incendiary statements (e.g. tagging Obama as a "terrorist sympathizer") are whipping the crowds up to a froth. It is extremely irresponsible and rips across the fabric of American society. We don't need more of this polarization in service of political victory - that's unamerican to it's core.

McCain, please dust off your last ounce of integrity and provide leadership to your followers. In your last weeks before the election, set the tone for collaboration and compromise and shut the door to the hatred and rage. You say this is what you would do as President, but everything you now do speaks to the opposite.

Why are t hey angry? Cause the old, rich, white man is loosing to a Black man!

There is a frightening element in America and it is these rage-filled McCain supporters who are so afraid of something or someone different they cannot see straight and become violent. McCain brought this one by bringing in Sarah Palin and giving the ultra-conservative gun-toting types a taste of what they'd like. I used to respect McCain and throught he was an honorable man with a different ideogy from mine. But now I think he's as dangerous as his out-raged supporters. I fear for Obama and this country!

those are people who are tired of the lame campaign you've run, rick davis! aren't you the one who was recieving $ from F&F up until last month? over $2 million? and you guys accuse obama of getting $ from them. obama has rec'd $16,000 from employees, during this cycle.mccain has rec'd $168,000 from employees, lobbyists and pacs of F&F. RICK DAVIS IS RESPONSIBLE FOR MCCAIN'S FAILURE IN THIS RACE.

He's a day late and a dollar short.

Those are the same crazy people who voted Bush into office….need I say more

What a discrace McShame. Even as a Democrat, I had always had a respect for the person you were but now, you will leave your political year in discrace and you will always be remembered for you actions of the last weeks. If you have no power or ability to control the actions that take place in your campaign, how can the people of America believe that you could have that power or control in the White House? Your rogue (maveric) running mate has no dignity whatsoever. Go back to her first campaign as mayor where she implied that she would be the first "christian" mayor, insinuating that the current mayor was jewish, eventhough she knew he was a christian. This should not only be an insult to the jewish faith around the world, but should be condemed by all americans. The bi-partisian legislature in Alaska only confirmed what we have all watched, she is a violation of ETHICS and you have now fallen into this method of campaigning and its repulsive. If all the "non-christian, non-white, under $5 million a year AMERICANS voted for Obama/Biden, the word LANDSLIDE would have a new meaning! By the way, you can have the right wing evangelical ADULTERERS and drug addicts on your side (say hi to Cindy).

McCain knows exactly what people are going to say….he lets anybody say anything negative then states he does not support it..the harm is already done, which is what he wants.

On the other hand, if he does not know, how does he want us to believe he can run this country, if he cannot even control his campaign?

All around, shame on you Senator McCain!!!!!!!

McCain Lewis comments are only shocking to you. How does it feel to have someone attacker your character? Doesn't feel to good do it? Then ENOUGH.

This, is because Gov Palin, said he was Palin around with terrorist,
and All the things Rush and Hannity have been saying are just unbelievable. They call themselves Christians and then scream out things like hang him and kill him, and it's all the McCain Fear tactics that have started this fire, they may not be able to be stopped!

Rage is the least thing America needs in this time of crisis. GOP seems to be out of options after 8 years in White House.

The world is full of ignorance and hate, but I certaintly never expected it to flow from the McCain-Palin campaign.
Our country is at war, and now we have John McCain and Palin out riling up their supporters to the point of hate mongering, fear mongering, and outright lies against a United States Senator.
They are not fit to be elected, and both should be kicked out of office.
The media really needs to start showing the real McCain and Palin and all the damage they're doing to our country.
God help us if they win this election.

So McCain says that Obama is just a descent man but no mention of the fact that he is an American? What a crook McMental is. People are tired of these klan meetings and their phony outrage. Everytime these idiots are asked how do they know Obama is Arab, their answer is, they read SOMEWHERE. I have an answer for them. I also read SOMEWHERE that McCain fathered a muslim when he was in the middle east in 1990's. His muslims wife and kid are living somewhere in S. Arabia now.

How terribly surprised they must be that a black man is winning. Sore losers!

Rick Davis is a LIAR……These people were plants…thats exactly how McCain has structured his Town Halls since day one. McCain is intentionally opening fear and racism and his camp well knows that this is a dangerous avenue to travel, but to them, winning at any cost is their motto. As a white lady, I find the McCain camp disgusting and distructive to America!!!!

Maybe people will start waking up when they start voting and see that we can't trust Obama enough to elect him as our president.

I think the whole incident was staged. The old lady was made to ask this question so that McCain could respond in that way.

What is more interesting is.. when you say "No mam, No mam." You are saying that "He is not an Arab." So, what should your next sentence be. McCain should say that "Obama is an American."

However, he doesn't say it! He got booed for even saying "decent" "family man", etc. If McCain had been the McCain of 2000, he would have said that "Obama is an American" and would have instantly lost the race.

American Christians sound more like all the other Jihadists every day. Can't you all go have a little Holy War somewhere-how 'bout Alaska? Leave the sane people out of your delusions-we've got a country to straighten out and a mess to clean up-thanks to your previous GOP savior.

I like how he didn't correct her. He is a Christian, not a Muslim. Would have been very easy to say, but instead he lets that mentality to continue.

McCain started this, and if something happen in a violence manner to Obama OR HIS FAMILY it will be McCain's fault. But I guess the presidency is worth it.

What concerns me is not the rage so much but the idea that we cannot disagree without taking it too far! Writing on the blogs is one thing, many get an opportunity to vent but when you here reports that Bill Maher (Obama supporter) and reporters are receiving envelops with powdery stuff sent to them by people who are against Obama, I find that too scary. Why can't people respect that we all are individuals and it's okay to disagree and vote on November 4th how we think? McCain and his campaign should be out there setting the tone and talk about issues, and it's okay to bring up judgment but do it in a way that doesn't give people license to go out there and cause mischief.

From,
Concerned citizen

HATE breeds HATE, it's having a NEGATIVE effect on the mccain camp

Senator McCain,
Americans do not need more division,for the sake of you winning an election. We need unity in this country. We do no need to be distracted from the loss of jobs, destruction of the family, loss of homes, the elderly loosing value in their hard earned savings/401k's. We do not need you jumping around panicking and causing others to panick. America needs a stable clear minded leader that knows the constitution, knows the fundamentals of efective problem solving and is not beholden to Washington lobbyiest. America is ready for President Barack Obama and Vice President Biden. Muy ready!

The Rebublicans are getting all the "credit" for being angry,well not so fast. If you happened to be on the cnn. blog during the primary you'd have heard plenty of anger and further more still do. Ever notice that no one gets to talk at obama rallies, just him? The things that are said about Palin on here are beyond belief at times. Everbody chill we're supposed to be Winning!!

Ignorance will always exist in humans and in fact exits in every society. Hopefully, we will have few of these than more.

The McCain/Palin campaign is actively encouraging divisiveness and hatred. With the country facing such serious problems any shouts of "Traitor" from the crowd should be directed at McCain and Palin. Their brand of "politics" does nothing but hurt our country and bring out the worst in Americans when we need to do everything possible to bring out the best. Shame on them.

If Obama is allowed to steal this race with his voter fraud and race baiting, this country will come apart at the seams. I had some young punk write OBAMA on his drinking cup yesterday and throw it on my windshield as I was driving because I have a McCain sticker. I'm not going to take it. Next time the little jerk will wend up in the ditch! I'm a grown adult who sees thru Obamas BS and just because he has brainwashed our youth does not mean that I will stand idly by and watch my rights go down the tubes. AND..I am NOT going to have Obama shoved down my throat!

Live by the sword…DIE by the sword.

McCain at a magazine industry conference at a casino hotel in Puerto Rico in 2005, as witnessed by Jeff Dearth, former publisher of the New Republic:
McCain interrupted her: 'DON'T TOUCH ME,' he repeated viciously. The woman again tried to explain. 'DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM? DO YOU KNOW WHO YOU'RE TALKING TO?' McCain continued, his voice rising and his hands now raised in the 'bring it on' position. He was red-faced. By this time all the action at the table had stopped. I was completely shocked. McCain had totally lost it, and in the space of about ten seconds.
Nico Pitney / The Huffinfton Post / October 9, 2008 10:23 AM

Seriously?!? What is wrong with people - I have read about rage and racism and an absolute lack of respect from the McCain supporters and they are not making themselves look good. As an Obama supporter my rage is at the issues we face as a nation from small towns regarding jobs to the market issues in the world. This article makes me afraid and angry…not of/at McCain but of the small mindedness that some of his supporters are projecting. This is a good example of how the negative inaccurate rhetoric of the McCain/Palin team has tainted this whole election.

Oh, please, what a fraud, and you CNN, print this lefty tripe!
John Mc Cain has no control over the people in the audience,
and what they shout, this is a free country, he cannot control
all these people, no more than Obama with his audience.
STOP THIS LEFTY GARBAGE!

Governor Palin has been a major force in this RAGE… Either she does not fully understand the POWER of words or she just does not care. But I have a MUCH larger issue than this rage…
And that is with Governor Palin as a potential Vice President ..she's just not that smart. No, offense it's just the truth. What other reason would the McCain campaign have for not ALLOWING her to do ANY more interviews without Senator McCain at her side??
THE REASON IS CLEAR.
Because she is not qualified and you can REALLY tell when you ask her questions that require spontaneous answers other than remembered talking points.
I ask you members of the Republican party..Do you REALLY want this type of person in the White House?? The last person we elected that was of average intelligence was….
George W Bush and look at the mess the world is in from that election!!
WHEN is she going to do interviews on CNN, ABC, NBC, MSNBC. How in the world are we allowing this woman to run for this office without going on the Sunday morning interview process??
LETS NOT LOWER THE BAR JUST BECAUSE IT'S A WOMAN (HILLARY HAD TO GO THROUGH THE PROCESS AND DID VERY WELL NO MATTER WHAT STATION SHE WAS ON)…
DEMAND MORE INTERVIEWS ON OTHER STATIONS..FOX ALONE DOES NOT CUT IT!!!

This is beyond sick. McCain/Palin calls him a terrorist and wonder why people in the crowd wants to harm Obama. McCain is worse than Bush. When you didn't agree with Bush they called you unpatriotic. Don't agree with McCain/Palin you are called a terrorist.

God please help us…………

A New Meaning of Smears

S- Sarah
M - McCain
E - Erratic
A- Attitude
R- Result
S- Stupid

THIS IS AN EXAMPLE OF THE HATE SPEECHES BY MCCAIN THE REPUBLICAN RIGHT WING. ITS CAMPAIGN FIRST AND COUNTRY SECOND.

WE NEED A LEADER THAT CAN UNITE AMERICA AND THE WORLD!! WE NEED A LEADER THAT WILL STICK UP FOR WE THE PEOPLE AND NOT BIG CORPORATIONS AND THE RICH. THESE TYPE OF LEADERS ARE UNIQUE AND DON'T SHOW UP OFTEN. WE NEED TO PROTECT BARACK OBAMA FROM THE HATE SPEECHES AND PEOPLES LACK OF KNOWLEDGE. LIES AND HATE SPEECHES MUST NOT DOMINATE AMERICAN.

ERACTIC MACAIN WILL NOW TRY TO PRETEND HE WANTS TO BRING AMERICA TOGETHER. THIS I S ANOTHER ILLUSION GAME BY THE RIGHT WING AND AMERICAN MUST NOT FALL FOR THESE LIES AND ILLUSION GAME OR WE LOSE OUR LIBERTIES.

VOTE FOR AMERICA, VOTE FOR OBAMA 08

Nice campaign button the Klan created on McCain's behalf. He must be proud of his supporters.

McCain and Palin really HAVE created a Wallace-style campaign. And this garbage about ministers and McCain/Palin saying Obama isn't Christian are mind-boggling! How DARE them! How DARE them say non-Christians for Obama…we supporters ARE Christian. We are all religions including non-believers…so what? We're all AMERICANS! Unlike Palin and her Alaska Independent Party nonsense.

McCain has created a monster that I can never forgive him for. He needs to do MORE to denounce those who say Obama isn't Christian…including RELIGIOUS LEADERS! How ungodly IS McCain's campaign?

McCain has taken this country back 100 years!!!! Unless he takes a FIRM stance to STOP this nonsense…I hope he never is allowed to hold a PUBLIC office ever again!

What did they expect? The McCain is running the most hatefull adds and lies and inuendos about Obama. The Rick Davis, Steve Schmidt,
Karl Rove game plan is not working! The American people are suffering from the failed Bush/McCain policies and McCain has not indicated how he would change course. His judgement in selecting Sarah Palin excited the base, but when her background, knowledge, and facts of her abuse of power came out…she was booed, and it's obvious to even the leading Conservatives, she is not prepared to be Vice President, or God forbid President.
The John McCain that was a maverick in 2000 is no longer with us. He has imbraced the kind of campaign he denounced….his idenity of honor and Country First, does not measure up with him anymore. I miss the old John McCain! The new John McCain will be the factor that causes him to lose the election.

So if a person is an Arab, it means he's not a decent family man??!!

Republicans have fueled division and racism across this country for the past 20 years. It seems that's all that's really left in the party… I think Republicans ought to start standing their ground rather than let the far right minority to publicize what is so wrong with that party!

This campaign is so presidential…for 1956. The media is enabling this vile insult to our constitution in the same way it acted as cheerleader during the rush to invade Irak.

How's that working out for the American people?

The right is exposing its small mindedness. It's sad and scary to see.

U CAN'T HAVE IT BOTH WAYS MCCAIN.

You opened this can of worms. Your campaign started the hate/smear campaign. You are the one who will have the trashing of a good man on your soul, and all because you want to be president.

PUT YOUR COUNTRY FIRST AND DROP OUT OF THE RACE. You are making a mockery of yourself and our country. Your vice presidential candidate is a disgrace to this country, and all you have left are lies and hatred. Preying on the fears of the small minded.

First sensible/decent thing I've seen out of the McCain campaign! Hats off to you Senator McCain.

McCain and Palin should be really concerned that they are giving the Klan a new lease on life. They need to step back, take a deep breath, and get back to the real issues. Palin's reception at the hockey game is an indication of American disgust. No first lady, candidates running mate, or Hillary would have been greeted like that. The dangers of McCain and Palin's garbage is not only increasing the potential danger to Democrats, but also to Republicans. Their disregard for a positive democratic process also puts America's international interests in jeapody. I truly hope that McCain is waking up to this and that he will bring Palin in line, and quickly.

You Reap What You Sowe Mccain!

THOSE TYPES OF EMOTIONS ARE WHAT DIVIDE PEOPLE AND CREATE VIOLENCE.STOP THOSE HATEFUL PEOPLE NOW BEFORE IT IS LATE.MCCAIN AND PALIN HAVE INITIATED THIS RAGE AND IT IS UP TO THEM TO CHANGE THE TONE OF THIS CAMPAIGN.THOSE PEOPLE THAT SHOWED RAGE ARE CLEARLY RACIST AND I THINK THAT THEY DO NOT LIKE OBAMA ONLY BECASUE HE IS BLACK/ I AM A LATIN WOMAN AND I HAVE LOTS OF FRIENDS THAT ARE BLACK AND THEY ARE WONDERFUL PEOPLE AND I HAVE BEEN SUPPORTING OBAMA SINCE HE STARTED RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT AND YOU KNOW WHY?BECAUSE OBAMA IS A YOUNG MAN FULL IN HOPE AND INSPIRATIONS AND HE WILL MOVE THE UNITED STATES FORWARD AND WE WILL BE A BETTER NATION AND EVERYONE WILL RESPECT US AGAIN LIKE BEFORE.LOVE YOU OBAMA/BIDEN 2008

This woman was so a plant in the audience by obama's campaign!!! She looked like someone acorn had promised a bottle of wine to.

Senator John McCain is NO RACIST!!!!, Support of McCain may have some very strong views along the racial line due to all the false inforamtion they recieved about Senator Obama. We as American needs to do our research and show the world that we are United in our quest to return to our leadership status in the world..

Obama and Binden 08 / 12

Of course the McCain folks KNOW who those people are. One of the people that said bad things in the audience was an anti-Obama talk show host and the older lady that said that Obama was an arab WORKS in the McCain headquarters!

You reap what you sow McCain! Congrats on stirring up a racist mob into a frenzy! I'm sure the independents and the rest of America are so proud of you. You definitely deserve the presidency now!

McCain/Palin are the cause of this rage. They really need to do something to stop it. As they can see by the polls their negativity is not helping them.

Yeah right Rick Davis, you don't know who those people are.

Even the McCain campaign responses are infammatory.

This is CRAZY!! I can't believe there are still people like this that exsist. It's the 21st century people! And your afraid of a black man getting elected as president?? You know thats ultimately what this is about. I'm ashamed to even say I'm from the same country as these people. They are the furthest thing from patriots, you are exactly what this country is NOT about. I am absolutely disgusted. UGH!

This is the worse campaign in history. Mud-slinging from all 4 candidates.

Vote for the ones with the most experience.

Ummm………..That's McCain and Biden.

I have a friend who saw Palin in PA at a rally he liked her but he also called OBAMA the N word in his email to me. How have Christians become so hateful. I have lost 100% respect for Palin ( actually never respected her much) and alot for MCCAIN with this hate mongering campaign. I actually was thinking at one time for voting for MCCAIN because of his experience and if he had picked Huckabee or Romney I may have been voting for him tomorrow instead of OBAMA. There is enough hate in this country without my president and his rabid mate Sarah leading the charge

McCain & Palin: What part of "FALSE" or "MISLEADING" do you not understand. Factcheck has repeatedly shown your statements and advertisements to be false and misleading, and yet McCain continues to repeat the lies and to approve the messages, and the LAPDOG WITH LIPSTICK continues to PARROT those lies.

No surprise re Palin: she reneged on undertaking to co-operate with Alaska State Legislature Investigation, which has found that she abused her state powers for a personal vendetta. I however expected more from McCain. especia;;y after he said he would run an HONOURABLE campaign.. It is sad to see how McCain has gone downhill since selecting his running mate. He has disgraced himself and the McCain name.

It doesn't matter if they are supporters or not…WRONG IS WRONG!!!!! Let's be civilized about this. America is about to be put to the test. We say that there is not race problem in America. On Nov 4th, we will find out…. the rubber will hit the road VERY soon….

haha

This is one of the many reasons we need a Obama Presidency, so that the scared and the racist can see that Obama is not out to get them. Obama wants to be the President for all Americans not half but all, and I think he is gonna do a awesome job.

GO OBAMA GO! YOU HAVE EARNED IT! Obama Biden/08/12

I'm afraid that Senator McCain's desperate strategy to malign Senator Obama and create mistrust of him among the voters backfired on him. From the day of the success of the Democratic Convention, Senator McCain began making plan B radical campaign decisions from the selection of an overly ambitious, V.P. partner who can do no good for this country, to a decision to create fear and doubt about Senator Obama, if necessary, he has opened a door to a tunnel back to the 1960's when hate and fear ruled America. We have come too far for one man's self-ordained feelings of entitlement to cause such a set-back for America and Senator McCain has to accept responsibility for what he had done to drag this country backward.

At a rally in Minnesota on Friday, a woman told McCain: "I don't trust Obama. I have read about him and he's an Arab."

McCain shook his head and said, "No ma'am, no ma'am. He's a decent family man…[a] citizen that I just happen to have disagreements with on fundamental issues. That's what this campaign is all about."

WOW…… I'm not an Arab living in the US, but if I was….. I would be pissed. John McCain says that Obama is not an Arab, He is a good man ! Hey John…. tell us what you really think of those Arabs ?

OBAMA CAUGHT SAYING ACORN AND FRIENDS WILL SHAPE HIS PRESIDENTIAL AGENDA

Obama said ACORN and friends, responsible for voting fraud and the suibprime crisis, are going to be shaping policy for an obama presidency? Is this is the kind of president we need a corrupted one already. just can’t wait to get to the white house to get corrupted.

Rick Davis gave a roundabout answer there. Nobody expects him to know everyone at the rallys.

They are reaping what Palin sowed. In dividing the nation along racial lines they are also scaring off some of their own supporters.

It looks like the McCain doctrine of fear and smear is doing its magic on the true believers; unfortunately, it is that very tactic that pushes independents like myself closer to an Obama vote every day. Stories like this and stories of pastors praying for a candidate's defeat at political rallies should scare the daylights out of those who seek the truth rather than hang onto untrue soundbites..

Adult, moderate, intelligent Americans should say a resounding NO to the politics of fear. NO to McCAIN!

I think it is sad that some people act this way. These are people who listen to Rush Limbaugh and Hannity who do not want the issues disscussed but for McCain to conduct charater attacks. These conservative talk show stoke the fire and get these morons stired up. We are all American and we should act like adults not children. McCain put himself behind by his own actions during the campign and also the economic situation has also changed the game.

United States?
WE haven't arrived.
WE will, like it or not.

None of this is compares to the rabid, hateful comments that the Obamaroids keep writing and CNN happily publishes in these comments sections.

I am amazed that none of our astute news reporters has picked up on the fact that these "fearful complainers" of Obama at the town hall meeting are a plant! What more effective way to scare voters into voting for McCain and 'Annie Oakley' than to get people to put down Obama, then act as Good cop and defend him, therefore looking like the good guy? McCain has reached a new low, he has become a puppet of the Right-Wing - coudln't you see he was acting –and poorly, at that??

These people weren't even real - they were only half coherent, as if trying to remember what they were supposed to say!

It is so obviously a plant, I fear our Media is taking sides by not even exploring this possiblity. Please review the tapes!

That's a shame Obama didn't do anything to anyone, so what are they mad at him for. They need to be mad at Bush he's the reason everyones losing everything not Obama. I think their just racist personally, and McCain want to leave it up to the people to decide the laws like abortion and etc. With people like the ones at his rally making those decision black people will become slaves again.

This has gotten out of control, the McCain rallies are starting to appear like Germany in the 1940's!!!

Wow. When I read that part about that woman not trusting Obama because he's Arab, it made me realize that the majority of McCain supporters only support him because Obama is supposedly black/arab. Well, I know many arabs and they are good people. It makes me sick to see that people stereotype arabs as terrorists and they don't "trust Obama because he's an Arab". Obama isn't even Arab, he was born in Hawaii. Most of McCain voters are white racist rednecks, at least from what I see.

…going into the ground. It is his own fault.

Obama 08

As McCain's support dwindles, all he will be left with soon are the wingnuts.

WE CAN'T TRUST McCAIN HE IS SOOOOO FAKE, ERRATIC AND UNSTABLE.

McCain and Palin have no options left. That is why you are seeing and eharing so many lies, accusations, distortions, and attacks.

They are speaking out of both sides of their mouths, which is nothing new for republicans, and inciting intense anger in teh party and amogn their supporters.

McCain has no answers, no solutions, no ideas and no plans.

Obama is pulling ahead in the majority of states and there are only 24 days left.

It is pathetic, dirty and desperate, but they have nothing else.

Let them take down the Republican party. Finally people are seeing the true party as it alwasy was. What's more is that "rage" describes the McCain persona. It has been documented that he is extremely hot-headed and easy to provoke to anger.

McCain, tell Palin to keep talking. When she trash-talked Obama during the RNC, he raised $10 million in less than 24 hours. And tell your hate rallies to say the "f" word or something. Turn it into the Jerry Springer show that it is.

Obama/Biden 2008/2012.

Let me guess. The next thing we will hear is that the democrats planted these people at the rallies. Somehow the democrats will be at fault again for this…that's the Republican way

I give McCain credit for telling the truth. It is the first time I've seen him speak the truth. There is no honor in winning due to lies and misinformation.

While I'm an Obama supporter, I have to say, John took the high road here. Being booed by people like that isn't something really that he should see as a problem; they're idiotic and uninformed. If they won't listen to their own candidate, then there isn't much he can do.

John, good job. It's too bad you didn't try to keep the hate in the box earlier on…but for this time, I applaud you.

If violence breaks out, if Obama is hurt or his family, McCain will be responsible.

I don't know how McCain and Palin can sleep at night. How can they call themselves Christians?

They should be mad that our great nation is collapsing before our eyes,but instead, they rant on about "TERRORIST" "KILL KIM" "ARAB"

AND THEY SAY COUNTRY FIRST?

I used to think John McCain was a war monger. Guess I was wrong, he is a hate monger.
