McCain and Palin hate Americans

shorterexcerpts:

squashed:

I’m puzzled by Palin’s (and by association, McCain’s) repeated denigration of cities, the entire East Coast, the media, community organizers, and everybody who disagrees with McCain’s never-say-enough stance on Iraq. Last time I checked, the United States has two coasts and a lot of cities. McCain is running to be President of all of them. In my mind, the contempt their campaign has shown for such a large portion of the country should weigh heavily against this candidacy.

(And yes, I chose the inflammatory subject line because I would love to see a response from one of McCain’s supporters. If Obama’s campaign started attacking the Republican base as uneducated or backwards, the response would be swift, brutal, and deserved. How is the McCain-Palin brand of Us vs. Them divisiveness any more acceptable? Convince me on this one. I’ve never voted for a Democratic Presidential candidate before—and I will do it this time because Obama explicitly and repeatedly reached out to the entire country—even the parts that ultimately won’t vote for him.)
