ANOTHER UPDATE from Joe: We'll hear it said that McCain can't be held responsible for what people in his audiences say. Right. Cause it's never happened before. Oh wait, it did. When an audience member asked, speaking of Hillary Clinton, "How do we beat the bitch?" McCain said it was "an excellent question." McCain fosters hatred and negativity by not standing up to it. He should know better. It's appalling and is destroying whatever is left of his reputation.
UPDATE: Ambinder heard it too. I'm just wondering what McCain's supporters are going to do next, now that McCain and Palin have convinced them that Obama is a terrorist. A reader writes in our comments:This is dangerous, very, very dangerous. There are nutjobs out there, with just a little bit of encouragement, will do something very bad. The Secret Service needs to take action to put a stop to this type of behavior now.

Peacenik is never suprised by how revolting the electoral process is. Both in the U.S. and Canada. But labelling your opponent a terrorist is beyond the pale. Digby on Hullabaloo comments yesterday that the wingnuts will go nuts if they lose. Particulary after 30 years of propaganda blaming liberals for everything. Is the U.S. immune from violent cultural war? Peacenik doesn't think so.
