If John McCain is as serious as he says about running a "respectful" campaign against an opponent he considers "a decent person," word hasn't yet trickled down to his newly opened storefront field office in Gainesville, Virginia.

pathetic Mccain if you ever want to be considered a decent respectful person YOU BETTER PUT A STOP TO THIS NONSENSE NOW!

Of course McCain has no intention of running a decent or honorable campaign. All his decency and honor are long gone. The left when Palin entered.
I will be so glad to vote by mail here in Oregon next week and be done watching or listening to the horrible campaign that McCain/Palin are feeding us. It is so sad to see the man I once respected reduced to how he is not.
Shane on you John McCain. No wonder you need Ambien to sleep at night!

Typical of the republican fear and smear tactics. We need to get the fact out the McCain is STILL friends with G Gordon Liddy (of watergate fame) who spent time in prison and was subverting our very Constitution even way back then.

We are sick of the republican/Rove tactics.

Is Senator McCain going to offer Senator Obama an apology for the divisive and hateful comments of his surrogates?

MCKEATING5 AND MISS ALASKAN ANAL SPHINCTER ‘08 HAVE NOW BOTH BEEN CONVICTED OF ETHICS VIOLATIONS. NOW, I AM AS THRIFTY AS THE NEXT PERSON, BUT DO WE REALLY NEED TO BUY THIS 2 FOR 1!   October 12th, 2008 5:25 pm ET

it would appear the reptilian party's attacks on Obama is already having a negative impact.

But not on Obama but on the erratically traveling circus, the RCP shows Obama up to 7.3.

So, keep up that whole "turning the page" thingy, it is surely working for us Obamabots!

The gloves are coming off-Sarah Palin will talk to about 100,000 Virginians tomorrow at 2 rallies, one of them at a NASCAR track.

No uppity boy Senator is going to win in Virginia-

Virginia will be blue this election! No weapon formed against Obama shall prosper.
