The Wright ad that never ran

Umm, Clinton tried that route and look where it got her.

And it shows that McCain is more of a class act than a lot of people out there.

In re Jeremiah Wright,
As a preface let me relay what happened to a black couple during the sixties when they wished to travel to Mississippi to visit theie family. Because there was no place they could stop for lodging, meals or rest room favilities when they made the trip they prepared meals in advance snd drove straight through and manufacyred some sanitary facilities for themselves. It was this type of inhuman treatment of black people in America that Rev Wright was referring to in the remarks he made which were shown out of context ny the media.

Where do you get the notion that McCain withheld the ad "in part to avoid being accused of playing the race card"?

Maybe he withheld the ad because he knew that the Rev Wright issue had already been played, and that it wasn't going to win him one additional vote, but would probably cost him a few.

I have to say honestly, I read this blog a lot throughout the campaign, and all too frequently found Foon Rhee making these sort of off-hand assessments that have no basis in fact and are just the writer's own opinions presented as fact. I was very disappointed by the quality of reporting on this blog throughout the campaign. And I still am.

Charley Barcelo lets be honest now...times have changed...this is the problem with you back to the futue daydreamers....do you want to go as far back as when whites where the actual first slaves ever or do you want get on with the fact that the next president of the U.S. is black.

When two boxers enter the ring for the match the goal of each boxer is to defeat his opponent by throwing every jabs and punches that weaken him while at the same time take whatever landed to his face and body as he battle for the title or for the victory.There is no respect or concern for your opponent during the fight because losing is humiliating and sometimes the loser is totally ignored by many people and fans.Political fight for position is the same thing if you go in the Presidential or whatever type of political race with a Mr nice guy type of attitude sorry but you're in just the body but without a fighter spirit and determination to win. I rather a candidate lose while he really beat his opponent hard than not wanting to hurt him.

I produce tv and radio political ads. It's not unusual at all for an ad to be fully produced and then get shelved.

And what happened to the NY Times front page story which revealed that McCain was bought and paid for by the now "totally legitimate" Mob, who hide behind the facade of the corporate gaming industry? Interesting, that the entire national media dropped that story like a lead balloon. Do you think there may have been a deal between the "white-hating church goer", and the Mafia's chosen war hero?
