Sen. Barack Obama says the personal attacks levied against him by the campaign of his presidential rival, Sen. John McCain, particularly references to his association with 1960s anti-war radical Bill Ayers, are an attempt to "score cheap political points."
"I am surprised that, you know, we've been seeing some pretty over-the-top attacks coming out of the McCain campaign over the last several days, that he wasn't willing to say it to my face. But I guess we've got one last debate. So presumably, if he ends up feeling that he needs to, he will raise it during the debate."

Could be reverse psychology. Please don’t throw me into that briar patch.
Wonder if that might shake up "That One"?
Why doesn't Obama simply raise the question, provide the much needed answers and put the issue to rest?
That's a bunch of B.S. Obama knows darn well that Tom Brokaw, as moderator, had the say-so on what subjects got discussed.
Four of the infamous five were Democrats.
Alan Colmes was using the say it to his face talking points with Newt tonight.
Now I know why.
This has a childlike ring to it.
I remember saying this sort of stuff when I was in middle school and trying to look and sound tough.
Sounds dangerous, and a little bit of a threat. Right Biden?
Well stated. I hope it is a crushing landslide, in which the empty suit and his cadre around him are completely humiliated and driven from the political arena forever./Just Asking - seoul62........
“say it to my face” is a cheap political point. Its very Mussolini really. I’m tough, I’m for the people, I’ll stand up to the rich and make them our slaves!
(as a side note, I do not condone slavery, nor people who cannot literally ‘stand up’ due to a debilitating illness, nor Mussolini, who was Italian, and I have no problem with ethnic groups - so please don’t sue me Mr. Obama)
Obama’s years working for and supporting Bill Ayers seems to be one of the few work experiences on his resume, but no one is allowed to discuss it or know anything about it. Somehow he thinks examining his experience is a “cheap shot.” He can choose to keep covering up and filing frivolous lawsuits against anyone mentioning his deep ties to Ayers and voters can choose to acknowledge his lack of transparency and contempt for free-speech at the ballot box.
Nah, more like "If ya don't gimme you muthaf***in gat i'm gonna bust a cap on yo ass biaaatch!"
Well, actually 5 out of 5 were.
I think Barry should ask McCain why Sarah’s saying all those mean things about him. That would be a grand idea. ;^)
Must be the new Democrat talking point. Alan Colmes said the same thing on H & C tonight.
good gawd that man is such a cry baby. if mccain called him on it, for a face to face on the present issues obama would run with his tail between his legs. dont talk about my ears, WHA. dont say my middle name, its mean, WHA. dont talk about who i hang with, its damaging, WHA. wha, wha, wha, boo hoo. i thought obama was all about “getting in your face” well come on you little snivler, get in mccains face! show your troops how its done. what? no? then shut up.
Doesn’t matter, supposedly McCain has ruled out any attacks on the Wright issue. I don’t think it is getting him any votes to let the girl do all of his latest punching. So far, that’s how it is.
