Cindy McCain: Sen. Barack Obama has "waged the dirtiest campaign in American history,”
October 7, 2008


Cindy McCain makes appearance at Children's Hospital

By KATE HOWARD
Staff Writer

Cindy McCain said today that she expects her husband to clear the record at tonight’s debate and let America know where he truly stands.

McCain, who stopped to visit a half-dozen children at the Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt today, said the presidential candidate Sen. Barack Obama has "waged the dirtiest campaign in American history,” and her husband Sen. John McCain will use tonight’s debate to correct the distortions.

“What I have found is that it’s necessary to make sure the American people understand what we have to say, what we stand for as a husband and wife, and what we will do for the American people if we’re lucky enough to be elected,” Cindy McCain said.

Cindy McCain, who has said she initially did not want her husband to enter the 2008 race after the contentious primary he lost to President George W. Bush, said this race is even nastier.

In the midst of a deep economic crisis, the potential first lady said, the blame game needs to stop and civility in politics needs to make a comeback.

“The days of Ronald Reagan and Tip O’Neill are what we need to look to: a divided government but a government that needs to agree to disagree,” she said. “We’re now seeing polarizing factions, people politicizing things that should be about what’s best for America. Instead, they’re doing what’s best for themselves.”

Before interviews with the press, McCain spent about 20 minutes visiting with children staying at the hospital who gathered to work on voting bags to pass out to other patients. Cindy McCain spoke in hushed tones to the children and worked with volunteers to assemble the packets.

7. I think Cindy needs to be kept far away
from the pharmacy in that children's hospital, but if she should happen to accidentally ingest some anti-psychotic meds, that may not be such a bad thing.

8. Obama has waged the dirtiest campaign in history
Because he refuses to sink to our level and remain above the fray, talking about issues to the voters like they were actual people instead of engaging in name-calling like we do! IT'S SO UNFAIR!

17. Cindy McCain is obviously not a student of history. Kind of like that other heiress.
The 1828 Presidential Race between John Quincy Adams and Andrew Jackson is widely considered to be the dirtiest campaign in American history. Jackson's wife fucking died from the stress generated by the constant assaults on her and her husband's character.

19. Somebody forgot to tell her it wasn't "Opposite Day"
Then again, as with Sith Lords, from their point of view, Obama is evil.

25. That's sickening: assenbling campaign packets while visiting children.
Nothing like politicizing a visit to children in the hospital.
