The Dirty McCain Campaign, Violating Ethical Standards One Day at a Time
The campaign is ugly all over, with threatened assault in Florida, for instance, and Chris Shay, a McCain Campaign Co-Chair, denouncing McCain’s dirty campaigning. Worse is the blatant appeal by McCain and Palin for the LA Times to violate journalistic ethics in an attempt at another smear of Obama. They are playing for the xenophobia vote again.

4. It is amazing anyone votes for
McCain, at least the folks who aren't being paid by him or related to him. But, wait, many telemarketers paid through McCain campaign funds are quitting rather than give the message.

5. Gee... wasn't there a big kerfuffle a few years ago...
About honoring journalistic ethics in the "we don't reveal our sources" category? Why am I getting all Deja Vu-ee?
