McCain To Clinton Backer Who Endorsed Him: "Perhaps Your Reward Will Be In Heaven"

John McCain has criticized Barack Obama supposed presumptuousness frequently. Last week, a McCain ad suggested Obama is styling himself the new Messiah. But who's really playing the God card? First McCain's campaign came out with this poster. Now he's telling Clinton voters that support him over Obama that they'll be thanked in the afterlife:

Also Thursday, McCain called Debra Bartoshevich, the Racine County resident who lost her delegate seat at the Democratic National Convention for endorsing McCain instead of Obama, a "person of great courage" for endorsing him.

"Perhaps your reward will be in heaven - not here on Earth," McCain told Bartoshevich as he addressed the Civic Centre crowd.

No word yet from God on what the prize will be.

McPope, save thy self first.

Well another news item the MSM missed. God has now officially endorsed John McCain.

Remember back in the good old days when He used to send somebody a plague of locusts for pulling a stunt like this?

[NotMcCain]

Another "If Obama said this, the media would be all over it" moment.

I hope McCain's sarcastic and often inappropriate sense of humor will be on full display for the debates.

Wow, where's the multipage write-up by Dana Milbanks on this one?

[shengirl]

don't hold your breath...

[VOTER]

Dana is probably ON VACATION! : - )

[whiteboyblues]

...or in Hell?

As another poster said, these people don't know what they want or say ... they're not ready for a messiah's return although they wait patiently for that return, how soon they don't know!!

If there is a heaven or hell (and there very well may be) ... & any of them are there, hopefully I don't go ... surely I've had enough of these @ssholes right here on earth .. there has to be another place for me!!!

ROTFLMAO- what is black is white, up is down, weak is strong; welcome to the 2008 election campaign. The "American president", "America was waiting for", but we not playing the race card....

[Grunty1]

Mc'Cain listens to too much smut radio, apparently. They are the only ones who view O'bama as a Messiah.

[NoblesseOblige]

I wish they would keep God out of this election. Why do they all feel He's a Republican?

[normalkid0615]

Is God an independent? Libertarian?

[bookthief]

I thought God was muslim!... oops, my faux pas...

[Grunty1]

Because they have managed to convince the Religious that Democrats are God-hating heathens (or infidels, if you prefer)

[DaOne]

Sorry Johnny, we ain't buyin' what you sellin'

[kmark22]

Hear that....the sound of the evangelicals marching left.........

The prize will be nothing. It's just hot air folks. Mr. Grinch is bought and paid for. Dems who think they will give them political retribution for their endorsement are in for a surprise. That includes the snake senator from CT.

I'm sorry. You can't make this stuff up.

WOW!!! As the white supremacists choirs sing like demented cherubs from Utah to New Jersey to Alabama's backwoods.

[Pupadup4oBama]

Every time this man speaks I lose a little gastric fluid.

[Freesia2]
