    of course media is going to have a field day w/ this but i think any undecided black voters wont care too much for that comment... i think there was another to a black gentleman where mccain said something like "since you probably don't know about freddie/fannie"... some may take that as mccain saying gentleman was ignorant or not educated enough.

    spin sucks but saying "that one"... um might as well called him a porch monkey... its ok i'm bringing it back

    Here's my unvarnished "offensive" non PC opinion...
    I don't think the 'that one' statement meant a damn thing. I know of many people who refer to another person in the room as 'that one' when they disagree on a point of discussion, I have heard that expression used my entire life...and...race/color/etc has nothing whatsoever to do with it.

    Furthermore, if an undecided black voter uses two words to make their choice that would be the dumbest $hit any person can do and we should seriously consider whether any person of that level of stupidity should be
    allowed to vote in the first place.

    yea right. It wasnt just offensive, it was unprofessional and inconsiderate. I surely dont think of anyone in a room whos name I dont know as "that one". We call each others cars "that one" and others things, but not other people.

    So dont try and pass that BS off.

    This is a prime example of an Obama supporter looking for something to whine about. Seriously, find something that really matters to start bitching about.

    Obviously you're either too young or don't pay attention...people have used that expression for years....especially ones of McCains generation.
    Don't let your bias (or lack of age) blind you. I dont even like McCain, but I am not going to crucify him over some dumba$$ $hit like that. People who do are too fvckin stupid to vote intelligently.

    I didnt crucify him to begin with. I never doubted McCain or anything still he started running that exactly-the-same garbage. If my age blinded me I wouldnt of concidered voting for Hillary, which I initially did, cuz I myself, didnt believe this man was ready to lead nor was it his time.

    So obviously, if I wasnt in the news and what will affect both my future and my childrens future, I wouldnt have anything to say. So u can assume because of my age (if u even looked) being 22 has anything to do with being a so-called "educated voter" then u would also see.

    Umm you totally missed the point. Obviously you assumed the 'that one' comment was something other then what it was. I would definitely attribute that to your age....as its a saying well known to people my age...and older.

    My inferred suggestion/statement is that I have little faith in voters that jump quickly to such simplistic conclusions. I have little or no confidence in their so called "education".
