McCain slams Obama as deceptive, inexperienced
Columbus, OH — Taking dead aim at the Democratic frontrunner, Sen. John McCain rebuked Barack Obama as an “inexperienced candidate” who is making empty promises to the American people of a “holiday from history.”
“Will we make the right changes…or will we heed the appeals for change that ignore the lessons of history and lack confidence in the intelligence and ideals of free people?” McCain said before about 500 supporters after declaring victory Tuesday in the Wisconsin Primary. “I will fight every moment of every day in this campaign to make sure Americans are not deceived by an eloquent but empty call for change….that promises no more than a holiday from history and return to the false promises and failed policies of a tired philosophy that trusts in government more than the people.”

The truth hurts. NOT!
It was an excellent speech, but I think McCain may be jumping the gun going after Obama. Hitlery will not go down without a fight.
Unless his aim is to help Hitlery, thinking she’d be an easier opponent.
If we wait any longer, it could be too late. It’s time to put the brakes on the Obama express.
I don’t know- after tonight- and the amazing rise of Obama in the polls in Texas...I think McCain’s strategy is right on target.
**thinking she’d be an easier opponent.**
I’ve thought about that scenario too.
McCain is 50-60 percent conservative, while Obama’s staff hang Che Guevara flags. I think its obvious what conservatives should be doing right now, but it seems too many freepers are listening to Ann Coulter.
Being all nicey-nicey just aint gonna cut it, when dealing with the sort who cut of Daniel Pearl's head.
I do not believe that he is doing the most correct thing by addressing the opposition.
Except in the most general terms, it has no advantage other than to be a feel good exercise.
Obama will deflate after the primaries are over, given that he gets that far..
McCain is 50-60 percent conservative, while Obama’s staff hang Che Guevara flags. I think its obvious what conservatives should be doing right now, but it seems too many freepers are listening to Ann Coulter.
The choice between McCain and Obama is like choosing between Trotsky and Stalin.
To call McCain a “conservative” is like calling Jimmy Carter a “moderate”.
Darn, he gives a speech and they swoon ... were have we heard this before???
I think that is the strategy.
And it's good practice anyway in case he ends up facing Obama.
That is not a slam.
That is fact jack.
Obama is very deceptive.
This whole plagarism needs to be brought up again during the general election... but not just his plagiarism of Deval Patrick, but also his plagiarism of MALCOLM X.
“They’re trying to bamboozle you. It’s the same old okie-doke. Y’all know about okie doke, right? ... They try to bamboozle you. Hoodwink ya. Try to hoodwink ya.”
— Barack Obama
“You’ve been hoodwinked. You’ve been had. You’ve been took. You’ve been led astray, led amok. You’ve been bamboozled.”
— Malcolm X
Wow! The Animated Turd versus the Popcorn Fart....whata show!
I also thought it a good speech. I particularly liked his descriptions of the Islamofascists.
I think the only other "message" we are hearing is that Obama is for change and that his wife hates America. I think it was appropriate the McCain (and Mrs McCain)are attacking both Obamas.
I think it is over for Hildabeast, though I was frankly hoping to see the rat party implode in internecine warfare.
