This guy's a fool. His wife is unpatriotic and borderline anti-American. She may be our first lady. That's not a campaign issue???

He’s telegraphing his weak spots: patriotism, appeasement and anti-americanism.

Hammer him, GOP.

So let me get it straight...we can’t talk about

- his name
- his pastor
- his upbringing
- the schools he went to as a child
- his resume
- his legislative record
- his wife
- the things he has said

Yup...that is certainly CHANGE!

I guess the rumor about the existence of a video of Michelle Ma Belle spewing a racist rant is true.

This morning Quinn (talk radio 104.7 out of Pittsburgh) said that there is a rumor floating that there is a video of Mrs Obama where she absolutely rants on about white people. Very damaging. Wonder if Barrack knows that this video is about to come out? Wonder if Hillary hasn’t hung up her hat b/c she has the video in her possession? Could be interesting.

And beginning with fact that she is out doing rallys/speeches on her own. COMEON! ANYthing she say, in public. . .for public consumption, IS absolutely FAIR!

Now, these same folks will go after Cindy McCain in the more insidious of ways. . .and have already.

When she stops spewing her anti-American rhetoric then I’ll quit talking about her.

And AGAIN, those who raise this question (and rightfully so) are accused of taking SNIPPETS of her remarks out of context. Give me a break...

Michelle Obama has been on the stump for her husband; that makes her fair game.

Interesting...this video will hurt him in the General but not in the primaries....white dem elites have so much guilt and hate towards america...won’t effect the outcome. Now McCain is puzzling because he seems to be ignoring his base and trying to get DEMS to vote for him. One thing to think about: can you imagine the first lady of the US saying these things? And if so, why wouldn’t that be a campaign issue?

Let me assure Mr. Hussein Obama that I have absolutely NO desire ...

Ever.

If his wife was sitting at home, or at least staying away from a microphone, I might agree with Senator Obama.

However, she’s campaigning.

She is VERY much a target. Senator Obama, if you don’t want your wife criticized, then DROP OUT.

It would absolutely cost Obama the election.

I expect them to pore through everything that I’ve said, every utterance, every statement. And to paint it in the most undesirable light possible. That’s what they do.”

Who is THEY? Is he referring to white people?

What you said, exactly. This is getting almost too easy. Geraldine Ferraro is being proven right every day; this guy would be an unknown little neighborhood rabble rouser if it weren’t for a (former) Republican Senator who found a way to lose to him and a national media that continues to prop him up.
