has McCain campaign made any statement regarding ashley-the-race-baiter?

[radfringe]

I know they issued a statement of sympathy when the false-incident was first reported, haven't heard anything else since then.

any statements denouncing the race-baiting?

1. I haven't seen anything yet.

Surely one of their spokesthings will get cornered on TV sometime this weekend and be forced to answer!

2. strange...wonder why they haven't?

maybe there's more below the surface?

I would think they would rush something out stating they find this deplorable... at least a general sort of statement to give them political cover..

4. It took them about 5 minutes to get her on the phone

when they thought they had a political story to promote. How long will it be before they express sympathy for the real victims of this crime (all of the African-American men in this country who were slandered by their shameless promotion of the hoax)?

3. Of course they HAVE NOT- that's how cowards and scoundrels behave! n/t

5. They'll throw her under the bus

by Monday. And will probably try and spin her as an Obama plant.

6. I'm waiting to hear what McSame has to say.

7. I was thinking the same thing...

I figure that it won't be long before the right somehow finds a way to pin it on Obama.

8. the longer it takes to get their spin out the worse it looks

considering the hate-fest going on at the rallies, the hate-mail, the robo-hate calls - I would say mccain approves of this crap.
