CNN :

A supporter of John McCain, speaking at an official campaign event in Ohio attended by the Arizona senator, called Barack Obama a "hack, Chicago-style Daly politician," and told the crowd "all is going to be right with the world when the great prophet from Chicago takes the stand, and the world leaders who want to kill us will simply be singing Kumbaya around the table of Barack Obama."

"At some point in the near future the media, the stooges from the New York Times, CBS (The Clinton Broadcasting System), NBC (The Nobody But Clinton Network), The All Bill Clinton Channel (ABC), and the Clinton News Network at some point is going to peel the bark off Barack Hussein Obama," said controversial conservative commentator Bill Cunningham, an Ohio native.

Reads more like a rehearsed good guy, bad guy routine to me...make sure supporters feast on red meat, but disavow any responsibility before being called on it. Is this what we have to look forward to until November?

Willie sounds like a hateful clown, ready to switch sides and not just candidates within the same party the moment his poor widdle ego is bruised. Which companies sponsor his show? The best way to deal with him is to get enough of us who've had it up to here with deceitful hatemongers to force advertisers to drop him.

Who cares what this pathetic Rush Limbaugh knock-off says? He is a minor league player, a radio talk show host in a second tier market, who is trying to gain notoriety and attention for himself in the crowded field of right wing talk radio, and maybe get that break so that he can play in the major leagues with Rush and Sean. I had never even heard of this guy until a few minutes ago, when I read the story. Bill Cunningham is another angry middle aged white guy who holds a grudge against the world for not fitting their childish GI Joe - Leave it to Beaver vision of what life should be.

If you want McCain, you'll just be getting another version of little king george.

One thing you can say about the talking heads of the GOP, the conservative mouth pieces like Hannity, Coulter, limpdick, Cunningham and less we forget all the right wing necon chickenhawks and their supporters. They are a prefect example why family members should never have sex with each other. See what you get when they do?

It must have been just like the final scene on "The Godfather": John McCain walks into the room, and as the doors close, you can see McCain kneeling and kissing Karl Rove's hand.

it's going to get even tougher on McCain, you all have a weak candidate who has a ton of skeletons in his closet. I predict a double digit Obama win.

unfortunately a right wing talk radio pea brain like this usually get 10 - 15 hours a week on every state's largest radio stations- and then others like them fill in the rest of the day.

they have had a huge effect in deciding the flavor of America the last twenty years since Reagan killed the Fairness Doctrine.

until we get a new Fairness Doctrine these guys will continue to make bipartisanship and democracy just about impossible.

Hannity is back on the "McCain is not a conservative" bandwagon. The neo-cons are beginning to make 3rd party noises. I for one think that would be great, leave the governing to rational people who can meet in the middle...

they could call it the right wing blowhard party and we could go back to being a democracy....

At some point, someone is going to peel the bark off John Sidney McCain III and ask him why he's pro-torture when he knows from his experience of giving names of the Green Bay Packers that it's not reliable or effective.

the crazy neo-con radio guy is now calling "Juan Pablo McCain" the rats are eating their young, err, old.

Let's see, his, and I repeat HIS, middle name, not one somebody made up, is off limits, you must be sure you have the handbook of code words so you don't appear racist when speaking of him, no media scrutiny of his record or ties to crooks and lobbyists, no pictures of him in stupid looking outfits lest it be considered fear mongering. Hell why doesn't everyone just get out of the way and we can crown him and save all the money being spent on campaigns. Maybe since he is so great we ought to change the law about only serving 2 terms. Praise the lord and baptise me, oh wait, I can't be in his church unless I promise to adhere to the black principles of value.

please, you know the reason the mantra is "Barack Hussein Obama" from the right is they believe using it that way evokes the image of connecting Obama to Sadam, to Islam etc. They know exactly what they're doing and it is deliberate and as low as a snakes belly.

If he has a problem with his name and what thoughts it may invoke, then change it for crying out but don't whine when people use it!

John McCain is a war mongering lunatic. Today, Obama is drinking Hillary's milkshake. Tomorrow< Obama will be drinking McCain's milkshake.

Apparently the GOP's "strateegery" for the 2008 Campaign is to show as little class as possible.

McCain is a war hero. You know you can trust war heroes. Oh ! Does the name Randy Duke Cunningham ring a bell ? Now serving time in the Pokey.

"myfriends" McCain is not a war hero. He was a POW who survived. He gets credit for that. Many others also survived..some were there much longer than he was. They went on to lead positive and productive lives. McCain has always lived off of the taxpayer. I am tired of him being called a hero.
