McCain and Republicans whip up their racist base; Now they are an uncontrolable angry mob
October 11th, 2008 . by Ed Ricciotti
Over the past few days, many blogs and news outlets will be showing you McCain rallies of people who are calling Obama a terrorist, Arab, or someone to be feared. The idiom “the chickens coming home to roost” will be the buzzword of the week. In O’Fallon, Missouri a month ago, around 20,000 people (I could be wrong) had shown up to see McCain, Palin, Luetkemeyer and other state republicans take the stage. I’m wondering, did they spew hate from the rally there? Or is it the fact the since the early part of September, Wall St. has bottomed out and the racist base, once arrogantly proud, have now become fearful and panicky? Republicans have sowed the seeds of hate and now it is spreading uncontrollably. They have exploited people’s most base emotions and now they are surprised that the “impurities” have bubbled up to the surface of the cauldron they fired up.
Obama’s poll numbers have risen as a result of this economic mess. Looks like the stock market is the “October Surprise” that the Republicans cannot shake off.

Norm Coleman up in Minnesota apparently is distancing himself from McCain, or at least opting to not appear at his rallies. Good to know our Luetkemeyer isn’t following this wise choice.
