He is a typical Chicago Political Hack:

Typical Chicago Politics Will Come Back To Haunt Obama ( New Revelations from London )

And his money used to buy his House has Middle East Connections....

[The_Republican]

Shi*. Its his NAME. Its not like the guy used a four letter word to refer to him. NAME.

This is mind boggling.

[Rennes Templar]

About time ho-hum McCain had a little spice in his ho-hum campaign. That said, I’ll vote for him.

[Past Your Eyes]

McCain. Not to be trusted.

[puroresu]

"I absolutely repudiate such comments and again, I will take responsibility," [McCain] said, calling the use of Obama's middle name inappropriate. "It will never happen again. It will never happen again."

[Berlin_Freeper]

- ...accused the “stooges from the New York Times” and “sycophants in the media” of conspiring to elect Obama.

Erm, that would be McCain.

[jonrick46]

I love it. Good cop, bad cop! Obama will be so dizzy he can’t walk.

[tobyhill]

McCain better learn real quick that politics isn’t a sport of apologies.

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

pingaroo!

[Red_Devil 232]

McCain is still reaching across aisle! What an idiot.

[tobyhill]

***Bill Burton, a spokesman for the Obama campaign, applauded McCain’s remarks.

“It is a sign that if there is a McCain-Obama general election, it can be intensely competitive but the candidates will attempt to keep it respectful and focused on issues,” Burton said.***

As soon as McCain turns his back he will get sucker punched by Obama. McCain will never learn.

"I absolutely repudiate such comments and again, I will take responsibility," he said, calling the use of Obama's middle name inappropriate. "It will never happen again. It will never happen again."

Actually, I agree with McCain on this. To stoop to such tactics will only work against him. There is a difference between tough politics and gutter politics.

Many of the voters who attended the rally were talking about Cunningham's remarks as they left the building. "I was mortified," said Beverly Weeks, a 59-year-old nurse who identifies herself as an independent. "I'm born and Cincinnati-raised, and to go up and make it comedy. ... I felt sorry for McCain, because he had to keep apologizing profusely for something he's not responsible for

God help us if the rest of the country has become as spineless Beverly Weeks.

This is about being the leader of the FREE WORLD, The President of the United States of America.

It's not some community church pitch in where we all hold hands, B. Hussein, is the enemy, of that there is no doubt.

[The_Republican]

Here is the real SHAME - a crowd of 400 people.

Hussein has 4000 people who wait outside his events because the Stadium inside is full.

[gathersnomoss]

If McCain pussy-foots around during this election, playing into O’s hand, he will loose. If he follows his friends in the MSM and the Drive-by’s, he will loose.

STOP APOLOGIZING!!!!!!!!!

Sheeessh..

[e-male]

Does this mean the McCain supporters here at FR are going to stop these disparaging remarks about Obama and show him their respect? No more accusing Barack Obama of sympathizing with “world leaders who want to kill us”. McCain said, “Whatever suggestion was made that was in any way disparaging to the integrity, character, honesty of either Sen. Obama or Sen. Clinton was wrong, and I condemn it.”
So, Mccain condemns his supporters. What new?

[IMissPresidentReagan]

I guess McCain forgot to tell Billy C. to “calm down” before he came on stage. :D

[Blood of Tyrants]

If McCain insists on playing patty cake while the ‘Rats play hardball, he will have his ass handed to him in a sling in November.

[3niner]

McCain’s in danger of having all his potential supporters say something like, “Fine, have it your way John, you’re on your own.”

[EDINVA]

It was a very politically astute move for McCain to distance himself from the remarks. It’s one thing for a speaker to make the remarks at a rally when the candidate himself isn’t there, but if s/he is and doesn’t repudiate the remarks, it’s as if he himself made them.

By distancing himself, McCain takes the high road, and his attacks on Obama will be all the more powerful, based experience, issue and policy. Personal remarks would make him look small and petty like Obama’s opponent heretofore. Those disenchanted with that Obama opponent will look more favorably upon McCain after she drops out.
