That's admirable. Those that scorned Obamas "grassroot" attitude should pay attention b/c this is how change happens. All it takes is one brave voice to remind us of our morals. Now THAT'S patriotic!

I have 5 family members who McCain just lost as of today. Someone should advise the man that he is smearing himself and Ms. Palin by the lies and exaggerations--on second though, forgoet that. I spent weeks arguing with them, and McCain's Ayers and Acorn bit did what I could not. Keep it up, John!

Norm, You didn't seem to offended by the sign at your rally with Todd Palin:

"Charles Manson was a community organizer."

Was that OK?? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ioHTOQHQ-Rs&eurl=http://www.americablog.com/

I hope good sense prevails on McCain's advisers to follow the advice of his own party's politicians. The robo calls and ads clearly show desperation.

There is no doubt that the RNC's Robo-calls are mean, not true, race baiting, unpatriotic, unamerican, and morally corrupt. The McCain-Palin use of these Robo-calls is dangerous and dishonorable to our country. My fellow citizens it is time to let the RNC know that their Robo-calls must end immediately.
The American people must ask 3 questions about John McCain tonight. Are these the values that he fought for? Is this John McCains view of his country? Is this the dishonorable and untruthful view of own self that he has? We must remain a country of laws, humanity, dignity, and equality. If we let the forces of politcal evil (RNC) dictate our morality. Then we have truely lost our freedom. I hope my fellow Americans read and understand this message very thoroughly. God Bless America!

A call for McCain to be honorable? I think it's about 8 years too late. Blind ambition has sucked him dry, the man no longer has a soul.

This is an election for POTUS. If you can't handle a bad ad or someone saying something bad about you, THEN MAYBE running for office is not the right thing.

Senator Coleman should condemn Minnesota Representative Michelle Bachmann and her divisive hate-filled talk on Hardball yesterday. As a result, Bachmann raised nearly half a million dollars in 24 hours from all over the country for her OPPONENT! America is waking up and fighting back! No more hate, no more division. We have real problems to solve. NOW!

I am on the "do not call list", Shouldn't that count for something. I do not want these calls coming to my home. Lies, Lies and more Lies. How do these people sleep at night? I guess no one in the McCain/Palin campaign believes in Karma?

Norm Coleman is a filthy desperate person who voted to destroy civil liberties, and supported Bush.
A fast trip to the sink does not result in clean hands, his filth is the kind that doesn't wash off.

It is about time that the RNC, the McCain campaign and other related organizations realize that smear tactics are NOT worthy of the American public's ability to examine issues and vote intelligently. It is beneath America's perceptions and 'enough is enough' -- let them begin to act like adults!

I want to congragulate Norm Coleman...I don't him and would not dream of voting Republican at this time...but, my respect for him is genuine and even it this is a gimmick it is a good one. I will check him out however, I owe him that.

Good on Norm Coleman and Susan Collins for trying to end the attack ads. But just before stopping his negative ads, Coleman put out a slew of them. Just in case they work?

For sleaze and deception, nothing can beat the McCain/Palin speeches or the RNC'S robo calls that infer Obama has ties with terrorists like the 60's weather underground (obama was eight years old at the time). These people are desperate, and I doubt they will curb this nonesense; they apparently have nothing more to offer.

Republicans need to pull them first and seeing how Senator Obama doesn't have any negative robocalls, that is not an issue for him.

Norm, who probably voted as often for what Bush wanted as did McCain, must be feeling like the loser that most of Minnesota voters are sure he is. It is really difficult to get people to believe in you Norm when you showed no creativity while in office. Bye,bye Norm. I wish I could say that you did well, but you didn't so I can't.

The negative William Ayers ads, proves McCain is living in the past. When I did some research on what Wayers has done in the last forty years in education I was impressed. I see why Obama was "palimng aroung with him at board meetings. He has some great ideas. Some McCain might want to look at, if he is interested in the education of our young people. Also pople need to look what Rev. Wright church did in the community the twenty years Obama was sitting at that Church. If it was so racist, why was it attended by whites as well?

I agree. I will say this, too, when you listen to McCain/Palin, they are continuing to run foul stumps. Truth be told the supporters of this McCain/Palin campaign are only following their nominee. They terribly out of touch. And too the media, WHITE Media (pardon me gotta call like i see it) are following McCain/Palin lead too. Racism exist because Many WHITE People will not let it go. The seem to cling to Racism because if they were to let it go, than they will not appear to be the Majority anymore. Well guess what, NEWS FLASH, you are not the Majority Anglo-Saxon, the Majority goes to the ones with the Most Triumphs. Black have overcome SO!!!!!!!!!! Many triumps, you can't count them to catch up. Reality is going to get in soon. What i would Love, and i use Love, because GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD,... LOVED people, is to see American people let the ugly go, mentally, and just vote for your candidate. That is all, The one that in your heart you feel will suit your needs. Come on America, the others are watching. And if we don't get our morals and act together, they are going to be laughing at us, AMERICA.
