Obviously the republicans need to data mine their own employees a bit as much as they do the rest of us. Then perhaps, this could be avoided.

Typical, smarmy Republican. Catholics know it is a sin to have sex without marriage. And yet they chose this hypocritical loser as their Catholic outreach rep?

Another grenade goes off WITHIN the McCain campaign.

They claim they know so much about others yet they don't know about themselves.

McCain and his campaign clearly know what Hudson did, except they didn't think people would remember or say anything because it was McCain.

There goes what little catholic vote he had.

With each passing day, McCain sinks deeper and deeper into the abyss of political burials.

RIP - McCain Campaign

OBAMA 08

McCain seems to always have a questionable staff member.

When is McCain going to vet his own people and his campaign contributors?

Going all the way back to the primaries, it's looked like McCain says one thing but does something else.

If other Republicans would have done a tenth the research that the media is doing, McCain would never be the nominee.

This also raises a larger question, did McCain know about this ahead of time? If not, he's not doing a good enough job vetting his surrogates. If so, he doesn't have the best judgment.

As we now know, the Catholic vote was brilliantly manipulated in the 2002 mid-term and the 2004 Presidential campaign by Karl Rove and his conservative Republican machine. Using the promise of social justice programs, opposition to gay marriage and anti-abortion SC justices, the conservatives ensured that more Catholics would vote against only the second potential Catholic President in U.S. history (John Kerry). Unfortunately, the Catholic Church played along with that deception to further its own agenda. Will the Catholic voter be duped once again? We'll find out in November!

scary part is, that the catholic vote has been swinging right since gwb mostly because of issues like abortion, gay rights, and the protection of israel. i was shocked to find out in the last few years how much the c. church sounds like the evangelical religious right. i now consider myself a recovering catholic and have for several years.

Father Pfleger was on Obama's catholics committee.

I don't remember this group calling for his ouster.

Pfleger has praised Farakkan and Obama knows him for 20 years.

Obama invited Pfleger to hold religious events in Iowa.

Obama calls Pfleger his moral compass.

This is a liberal group.

This liberal group was ok with Father Pfleger on Obama's catholic steering committee.

This liberal group was ok with an associate of Farakkan on Obama's catholic committee.

Why is McCain worried about Catholic votes anyway? Most are going to Obama. Catholics are NOT as racist as many people think.

Pfleger was just being a jerk. I don't think that is a crime yet.

bobw-------i am a liberal i dont care who has sex with who i dont care if a president has an orgy in the whitehouse. it is just the hippocracy that makes me mad the repukelicans try to put themselves on the right hand of god but they are worse then most of us they just do it behind closed doors why we do it in the open.

I doesn't surprise me McCain's camp doesn't care this guy harrassed an 18 year old woman....people make mistakes right? After all this is the guy that called his wife a c*nt, left his disabled wife before their divorce was finalized to marry a millionaire half his age, and passed laws that restrict pharmaceutical companies from insuring birth control while insuring viagra.

Why is it , that when I read the comments here, most of the republican supporters seem to feel that they have to resort to name calling and intimidation to get their point across. It sure looks like to me most republicans do nothing but spew hate at those that do not agree with them, instead of commenting in a reasonable fashion. That is the farthest thing from being a Christian.

This is disgusting and goes right along with what Republicans are nowadays: HYPOCRITES!!!!

you make an interesting point michael.

Wonder if McCain has a different kind of religious problem than predicted?

I remember when Kerry was being lambasted
for his support of abortion. We had a visiting
priest come to our church and give us a lecture
(not sermon) on Kerry's viewpoints regarding abortion. He said that this was not a
supportive doctrine of the church and those
who voted for him could not receive
communion! I still go to church but decided
not to go to communion in silent protest.

I'm still trying to figure out why mccain confused the Packers with the Steelers last week while speaking to a Pittsburgh crowd. He is either going senile or he was trying to pull one over on the Pittsburgh crowd, either way this is BAD news for mc-more-war. You can check out the article by going into google and typing "mccain steelers" and picking the first link.
