A change in tune; McCain booed when he asks his supporters to ‘respect’ Obama.



During a campaign rally this evening in Lakeville, MN, an audience member asked Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) for a “real fight” with Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) at next week’s presidential debate. When McCain responded, “We want a fight, but we will be respectful,” the crowd broke out into loud boos. Ana Marie Cox reports, “McCain, visibly angry, stopped them: ‘I want EVERYONE to be respectful, and let’s make sure we are.’” The crowd then applauded
McCain: "He is a decent person and a person that you do not have to be scared about as President of the United States. If I didn't think I would be one heck of a better president I wouldn't be running."
Older Woman: "I have read about him. He's an Arab".

McCain: "No, ma'am. No, ma'am. He's a decent, family man, citizen that I just happen to have disagreements with on fundamental issues and that's what this campaign is all about."

And this is McCain's price to pay when he and Palin breed more hatred and racism in a disillustioned country into many uneducated voters.
Later Update: In the expanded version of the video , I don't hear any reference to terrorist when the woman calls Obama an Arab.

McCain just never learned. You never call your opponent President as McCain said about Obama. Every word means something and McCain just showed his supporters even he believes Obama is President of the United States.
