How does saying that Republicans should not highlight Obama’s middle name hurt the conservative cause? Shouldn’t the conservative cause focus on ISSUES such as Iraq, spending, pro-life, guns and extending the tax cuts (and perhaps racial quotas—Obama opposed the CCRI in Michigan, which passed with strong support) and not place emphasis on the middle name?

Tinman McCain does not own the Conservatives and if he has any intention of actually winning he better get off his high-horse soon. McCain and the other Rinos, including the ones on FR, need to wake up and quit attacking the Right wing base. You will never win this election otherwise!

It hurts his cause with conservatives when he shames someone who was just saying what conservatives think and say themselves among themselves. That's how. Not really very complicated.

Just stick to the issues. Mr McCain called Obama on his idiotic statement about Al Kiada in Iraq. Obama countered with another idiotic statement and big media applauded him on his perspicacity. Yea, by all means stick to issues. Good luck with that.
