McCain did the right thing, as far as I am concerned. There is no need to us Obama’s middle name to discredit him. He did not choose his name. His parents did. Attack Obama on the things he has done...not on stuff his parents did.

Anything said during a candidate’s campaign appearance reflects on him. McCain is wise to distance himself from this kind of attack.

Exactly the right thing for McCain to do.

I pretty much agreed with you until I saw the word "attack". That's a stretch. Just like McCain's response was way over the top both in his "repudiation" and his vomit inducing. unwarranted descriptive remarks regarding the "honorable" pieces of dung who will bury him.

The whole incident was blown way out of proportion and his response was just another example of McCain showing where his true affections reside; on the other side of the aisle.
