I am a Democrat, but I might vote for McCain because he's able to take the high road. I love him for that. It shows a lot of maturity. It also shows that he doesn't have to be a mudslinger. In my eyes he's a winner and a man of dignity. Thank you, John McCain.

I could not have put it better myself.
I cannot blame McCain for taking full advantage of the situation.

Of course, here is a thought.
If we never see the ad, we'll never know if the ad really existed. Hmmm.

As a Christian (someone who wants to follow the teachings and examples of Christ), I often find myself apalled by the acts of others who claim to be Christians. I find many of the remarks of Robertson and Falwell to be as distasteful if not more so than Wright. I really don't know much about Hagee. I would not know any of the statements made by these three if they had not made national news. I don't know of anyone who actually listens to any of these people. Do you actually know anyone who listens to any of these Mr./Mrs/Ms. Scitsonga?
I applaud McCain for wanting to take the high road in this election.

Most of the Christians I know are hypocrites for condeming the statements of Rev. Wright, but dont have a problem with the hate mongering of Hagee, the late Fallwell and Robertson

C'mon, McCain, This story should run!!!! Obama-Wright needs to be exposed!!!!!! What, is McCain all of a sudden get touchy-feely with Obama? The citizens of NC need to be informed, McCain, and they are ready to be. NC Republicans are doing their patriotic duty!! But what do you expect from the author of the McCain-Feingold unconstitutional limits on free speech??!!?? McCain would silence those he is opposed to or who oppose him!!!

Vote Ron Paul for President!! Write him in!!!

REPENT, FOR THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS AT HAND!!!!

So, let me get this straight. The NC GOP runs the ad and it damages Obama. McCain makes a very public announcement condemining the so McCain can appear to be "above the nastiness." McCain reaps the benefits of the ad's message while at the same time reaping the benefits of condemining the ad. It's a win-win for McCain!!! I'm impressed!

I think the GOP, and all people, need to take a look at the Reverend Jeremiah Wright issue, and how the "radical black theology" is affecting Senator Barack Obama.

I am not doubting that Senator Obama is a loyal American who loves his country. I am bothered a great deal by his pastor who would use the Lord's name in vain and then curse others in the name of the Lord. This from a pastor - when Jesus said that we are to bless and not curse.

I am troubled by this and other issues related to where Senator Obama worships. This can be done in a thought provoking and issue centered, positive way - and this is the only way to address it. However, how these ideas affect or are rooted in Senator Barack Obama need to be addressed - directly, in love and in respect for others.

Personally, im already sick of the whole nastiness of this campaign, which hasn't even really started yet.
