It is a fact that McCain cheated on his wife then dumped her. It is a fact that the Reagans were close to his ex-wife and their relationship with McCain was never the same. It is a fact that McCain has always been a party boy and womanizer. In fact, he is still a heavy gambler. He may have not called his wife the C-word, but it would not surprise me given his temper, which plenty of republicans can verify. i am sorry you are so narrow. you should read everthing and anything and then form your views.

End of the day this is a non-issue. I am also making the point that this 100% negativity is the reason the party is losing the election. This is not the best direction for the Republican party. It just turns people off, including myself. I am in Mike Murphy's camp (he ran McCain's 2000 campaign and got Schwartzenager elected), who I recently attended a speaking engagement with, that the McCain campaign is pretty much a disaster. 100% negative and Palin were a mistake. This was a change election that was focused on the independents. Palin does not appeal to the independents only to the base and the focus on constant negativity turns off independents.

He "approved the message" and actively encouraged the attacks. Thank you for this amazing post, Joan. Every word is true. Isn't it crazy how we have accepted so much verbal abuse? It is so damaging and, often, not even recognized for what it is. Over a period of time, a woman loses confidence in herself and her self esteem making it more difficult to fight back. She can marry a man with no more intelligence or education than she, but find herself in a situation where she has turned over ever major decision affecting her life to someone else because she has been told, or it has been implied, that she is incapable of accepting the responsibility. It's less obvious than physical abuse, but it is insidious and more easily tolerated for that reason. Silence give consent, Mary. He “approved the message” and actively encouraged the attacks.

McKinney is a threat to Obama because the strongest liberal supporters (especially the women) of Hillary are supporting the Green Party. We will not vote for Obama either because of his and his campaign's gross misogyny against Hillary and her female supporters. Not one even minimal apology for their appalling behavior either. Obama lost Democratic voters all over the political spectrum. They aren't asking in these polls if anyone is voting Green Party, and I personally know several women beside myself are.
