Negative McCain


One day after his wife laughably announced that he would not participate in negative campaigning, John McCain has repeated his claim that Hamas. In a speech he gave today, McCain said,

“It's very obvious to everyone that Senator Obama shares nothing of the values or goals of Hamas, which is a terrorist organization,” McCain said. “But it's also fact that a spokesperson from Hamas said that he approves of Obama's candidacy. I think that's of interest to the American people.”

That's of interest to the American people? The comment came a day after Cindy McCain said, "My husband is absolutely opposed to any negative campaigning at all." As I mentioned earlier, McCain is developing quite a pattern of denouncing negative campaigning one day while campaigning negatively the next.

If you still don't believe me, check out the run down Media Matters has on this issue.
