Americans need to ask themselves if they’ve ever befriended a convicted felon who advised his supporters on how best to shoot federal officials in the head. John McCain has.
Americans need to ask themselves if they’ve ever used the money […]

McCain Out of Michigan
October 2nd, 2008 · 2 Comments
Jonathan Martin of Politico is reporting that John McCain is pulling out of Michigan.
I will now put forward what I believe is the least likely explanation of why McCain is pulling out of Michigan:
Former Congressman and Edwards campaign manager David Bonior is from Michigan.
Bonior was very public in expressing his disappointment in John Edwards following […]

The DNC has put out their first ad of the 2008 cycle on John McCain and I think it’s a good one. It makes crystal clear how out of touch McCain is from the challenges Americans face now thanks to the failures of the Bush economy. I hope the DNC takes this ad and puts […]

Another Creepy McCain Ad
April 4th, 2008 · Comments Off
Ezra Klein takes a look at another creepy, spinning, rambling web ad from the McCain campaign.
When his first trippy ad came out, I asked, “what sort of hallucinogens does the McCain campaign think we should be taking when we watch this ad?”
Judging from some of the multi-colored smoke effects in the first half of the […]

Color of Change has a thorough fact sheet of John McCain’s problematic stances on race and civil rights over his career.

McCain to Take Public Financing After All?
April 4th, 2008 · Comments Off
Jane has the details. No matter what happens with McCain and public financing in the general election, it should be clear that he is only considering it because he and his campaign know that the Democratic nominee will obliterate him in fund raising. Public financing is safe money for McCain, so he’ll do it. […]

McCain’s Old Time Racism
April 3rd, 2008 · 2 Comments
Jake Tapper of ABC reports on McCain’s race problem:
McCain as a young congressman in 1983 voted against a federal holiday for Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Most Republicans in the House voted for the holiday (89 voted for the holiday, 77 opposed), though all three Arizona House Republicans were opposed. Reps. Dick Cheney, R-Wyoming, and Newt […]

Huh?

I think Joe Lieberman has been spending way too much time with John McCain.
Well, I think that - let me say generally that Sen. Obama doesn’t come to this debate with a lot of credibility…
If we did what Sen. Obama wanted us to do last year, Al-Qaeda in Iran would be in control of Iraq […]
