mccain to supporter: no ma'am, obama is not an arab

Published Oct. 11, 2008

 

 As noted below, today's McCain event was awfully surreal, and here's some video of the best moment -- McCain grabbing the mic away from a woman who says she's scared of Obama because he's an "Arab"...

One thing that's intriguing: How quickly the crowd goes from booing McCain's demand that his supporters respect Obama to cheering his claim that that's how politics should be conducted in America. The crowd swung from booing the sentiment to cheering it in seconds.

Also: It's hard to see how his current appearance today doesn't cut against him, should his campaign amp up the attacks on Ayers (and, potentially, Wright) in the home stretch. But he was boxed in and had no choice but to do this.

He is not all black either. It is amazing how Africian American are coming out of the wood works because that think he is black. Check the back ground. But then again I wouldn't want you to judge by the color of the skin. Don't vote just because you think he is black, or he can give a good speach.

yukon, Where you on a different planet in 1984? Reagan vs. Mondale.

You can't have it both ways, either the Republicans are smart and control all the money or they are dumb. At least McCain's rallies don't sound like gospel church sermon. I wonder at the end of Obama speaking that someone doesn't get up and say "Can't I get an Amen, for out savior!?!"

This video looks so staged. McCain looks so staged in everything he does. Don't you know that woman who said Obama is Arab was planted there? McCain kissing that child? All the people trashing Obama instead of McCain doing it? Don't you see how transparent it all is??

I hate it for McCain too! If all of this does backlash on him -- as it looks, smells, sounds, tastes... like it's doing -- what a very sad way to end a very decent career. Politics can certainly bring the worst out in people, can't it! Very sad.

I think in my adult life of 52 yrs, I have never experienced a landslide that is more lopsided than the one coming in a few weeks. I will be happy, so we can have our Governor back and on her own terms, not spouting the stupid, tired lines of the Repubs. Sorry Steve, but the Repubs are pitiful this cycle.

steve...actually, i was wondering if both she and the guy that asked the question in the video i linked to were republican plants, to give mccain the opportunity to make himself look better by showing some respect for obama.

How do you know that woman was not a Democrat plant? They have been caught redhanded at such tactics in the past.

judging from some of the clips i have seen, i would agree with ya susan.

Slick, the Repukes don't know what to think these days. They are a bunch of uneducated idiots who have no clue about politics. John McCain's Jerry Springer Town hall meetings are full of racists, bigots, fear mongers, who want to push violence into the public.

steve, mccain was actually booed at one point for defending obama...watch this clip...it shows an instance just before the one in the video above where mccain tries to show respect for obama and the crowd boos him.
