Joe Scarborough repeats McCain campaign talking points about how the momentum has turned. Keith Olbermann tells Scarborough to get a shovel. Olbermann asked Scarborough if the McCain campaign can back up their rhetoric. John McCain numbers dropped in the USA Today poll amongst likely voters.
Obama holds a 47%-43% edge over McCain among registered voters and a 48%-45% edge among likely voters. Both leads are within the margin of error of +/—4 percentage points.
In the USA TODAY/Gallup Poll a month ago, Obama led McCain by 3 percentage points, but McCain held a 4-point lead among likely voters.
On a certain level, McCain's negative attacks have worked to cast doubt in Obama. McCain's problem is he is a horrible candidate. McCain volunteered wife Cindy for a biker rally pageant. No word on how Cindy McCan felt about the possibility of posing topless or using a banana as a sex toy. Needless, to say, this set off the Christian Right's Rev. Kirbyjon Caldwell.
"Well, I don't know a lot about John McCain's family history, I do know, however, that as recently as last week I think it was, the Senator made a comment in South Dakota regarding his wife entering some Buffalo Chips contest which is this topless deal and if she were to enter she would probably win it and my personal opinion and based on my understanding of the Christian faith, that's not not, N-O-T, not the type of expression that a presidential candidate, or anyone for that matter who is a follower of the Christian faith, ought to make," said the Rev. Kirbyjon Caldwell. "I don't know if that is a perfect case in point, but it surely does help to juxtapose the DNA of Senator Obama, if you would, versus the DNA of Senator McCain."
Caldwell went on to endorse Barack Obama, in a conference call with reporters. Caldwell is the Pastor to President Bush. Caldwell presided over Jenna Bush's recent marriage. The McCain campaign made a hysterical response to Caldwell's diss.
These people are Obama campaign surrogates. These kinds of personal attacks are disgraceful. This absolutely exposes the hypocrisy of Obama's claim to represent a 'new kind of politics.'
So, now a noted Christian conservative and President Bush's spiritual advisor is a Democrat. The McCain campaign won't answer questions about the Maverick's faith or sexist comments. It is easier for them to accuse all the people that disagree with being evil liberals.
