"It was an energy bill on the floor of the Senate, loaded down with goodies, billions for the oil companies, and it was sponsored by Bush and Cheney," McCain said. "You know who voted for it? You might never know. That one. You know who voted against it? Me."
Obama campaign spokesman Bill Burton immediately emailed reporters noting McCain's seemingly peculiar reference to the Illinois senator.
"Did John McCain just refer to Obama as 'that one?' Burton asked.
who does mcbush think he is.
what a rude old man.
he just needs to retire so that the country can get back on its feet.
obama
Go Obama GO!
that was rude, and very unpresident like, I see why he wont have foreign talks
So What?! Is this the only thing the Obama camp can come up with?
Just like Palin toward Senator Biden, Senator McCain was disrespectful.
Poor old man!!!!!!!!!!
It was incredibly awkward, and it felt a lot like the xenophobic attacks McCain has steered his campaigns towards lately.
OBAMA CLEARLY WON. IM A OBAMABOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LETS GET AMERICA BACK TO WHERE IT WAS IN THE 90'S
The man has no respect. He's very insulting, and this is not who i want for my president!
That's all you do when you do not have anything to say
Could have been worse. Could have referred to how Obama isn't looking out for "our people", like Palin...
Yes he did call him "that one"....I wonder what he meant by that exactly...it's almost like the old man in your neighborhood yelling at you when you cross through his yard and step on his lawn!!
Obama campaign is desparate. That's was humour, stupid!
I thought the, "That one", remark was very unprofessional and just shows how smug John McCain is.
It was a big "Bad" moment for McCain but he had many condecending moments.Did McCain also avoid shaking Obamas hand as I thought I had seen ? Obama had much more thorough ideas and answers.McCains main theme was once again to put Obama down and he continued to lie.
Yes he DID. Did you notice that the Senator and his wife ran off the stage and did not mingle with the voters or acknowledge The Obamas? Where were they going in such a hurry? Alaska?
Please don't make a mountain out of it.
That comment really caught my attention while I was watching the debate. What did he mean by "that one"? My respect for John McCain continues to decline.
McCain looks so out of his league!
"That one" ... how very disrespectful. The angry old man speaks!
almost had racist undertones
That was out right disrespectful... McSlime lost this election a long time ago lol.. so it doesn't matter!
i thought that was VERY rude!
We all know that McCain has a habit of calling people out of their name.
Hey it looks like McCain won the debate hands down..good going J McCain
