McCain Gets in Election Day Barbs
January 29, 2008 1:02 PM
ABC News' Bret Hovell Reports: John McCain took some last-minute digs at Republican rival Mitt Romney at a polling station stop in the state of Florida Tuesday.
McCain, Arizona's senior senator, was asked about the back-and-forth war of words he's had over the last few days with the former Massachusetts governor.
"I will point out that Governor Romney has attacked literally all of us..." McCain said referring to the Republican pack. "It's only been Governor Romney who decides to attack opponents when he thinks they are moving up and succeeding."
"That's just the way he campaigns, it's just a matter of record."
McCain was also asked about how he feels leading up to Tuesday's voting. He said the endorsement of Florida's Republican governor Charlie Crist, who stood with him in St. Petersburg, was key.
"I'm feeling good," he said. "Endorsements matter...It would have been very easy for Governor Crist to say I’m not going to get into a contested primary. I'm very grateful and very appreciative."

ABC,
Gentlemen,
Msnbc, fox, and cnn's acnhormen and commentators have displayed their true colors favoring Sen Barack Obama. It is only ABC and CBS have maintained, so far, fair and balanced reporting and commentaries.
I am no Clintons fan. Neither of anyone in the presidential race. But, it seems that is being treated as
a SAINT. Any valid criticisms such as his drug used, his top fund-raiser Retko, winning the South Carolina not so
extra-ordwrinary feat,were taken by these pundits as too much, racist, among others. It is like a blasphemous
act doing so.
This nation is strong because we adhere and nurture the freedom of speech and assembly. The very ideals that the muslim-terrorists want to destroy. Now, if we succumbed and continue to benerate him like a saint, then, let it be so.Period. End of Discussion.

What a hypocrite. Wasn't it McCain that pulled out the last minute lie that "Romney wants to pull out the troops and declare defeat" comment on the very day when Romney pulled in front of him for the first time?
With McCain, if he believes this stuff himself, how would we ever be able to tell if he is telling us the truth? Answer: We won't. So much for straight talk. I guess he never said it was the "Truth-talk" express.

FRANK MAGNOS- The press is not trating Obama like a saint. How about you acknowledge the fact that the guy just doesnt have a lot of baggae to rag on!!! he covered his drug use in his book long time ago. What? you want him to say " I smoked but didnt inhale? I appreciate his honesty. That is a mark of honest leadership. Rezzko, even opposition researchers ave admitted that he has no wrong doing there. Trust me, if he had they would have been all over it.

John McCain would like to invade every country he doesn't like. And thinks your sons and daughters lives are worth whatever it takes to occupy the entire middle east. Please don't let this man get anywhere NEAR power. He is not rational and will start World War III! He doesn't know the economy, doesnt know domestic policy. All he is about is WAR. So if you want MORE war.... Vote for John.

Democrates are waiting: John McCain's infidelity will come out in the General Election. It is a story that will shock all.
John McCain's 1st wife stood by his side and waited for him while he was a POW. Then when he was released and sent to a Navy Hospital in Hawaii, his 1st wife was involved in a car accident and paralized. What did John McCain do? He went and had an affair with a Navy Nurse in Hawaii and divored his paralized wife. He then married the Navy Nurse. The Democratics know this from his bio and they will expose this actions during the General Campaign as someone who can not be trusted or depended upon.
He is also a war monger, and with Liberman, they will attack IRAN. McCain says he will cut spending, yea, right, just the pork, but all the pork would would not even equal a few weeks spent on the IRAW wars.
