Duhaime on McCain: MSNBC 10/13/08

Mike Duhaime on John McCain
"MSNBC Live" 1:05pm
Interview

TRANSCRIPT:
MIKE DUHAIME: "It is the real John McCain. I think that John McCain is the same John McCain you heard throughout this election, throughout the primary, throughout his whole life. "

"We cannot take responsibility for every word that is said by every volunteer around the country. I think you saw Senator McCain's comments last week. I think they speak for themselves in terms of respectful disagreements between candidates. [...] "

"If you would see some of the protests that were out for Governor Palin last week in Philadelphia, they were just completely over the line in terms of some of the things that were said that were quite frankly disgusting, and they were done by the Obama campaign, or certainly their supporters. I just heard a report on National Public Radio last week, where you have Obama campaign supporters and volunteers exclusively talking about the candidates, John McCain's medical history and his age, some of the things they've done on that campaign are way beyond the pail, and I think unfortunately, a lot of coverage only goes one way in this campaign."

What is this guy talking about?

[dcopley51]

Yeah, we saw the McCain-Palin supporters carrying the monkey with the Obama sign. Racist, gunloving bigots.

The McCain-Palin smear tactics are a desperate, dishonest, and despicable attempt to change the subject away from the economy, health care, education, and every other issue that matters to us.

"Who IS Barack Obama?"

- He's that guy who's already proving that the same old Bush-style smear tactics are not going to succeed - not this time!

We need a competent leader in the White House who can put this country back on track - not an erratic old man, who will only bring more of the same.
