New York Times reporter Elisabeth Bumiller reported Thursday from the McCain trail in Ohio and found "conservative and almost all-white crowds" greeting the Republican, in "McCain Excites Crowds With Criticism of Obama."
Bumiller, perhaps the Times reporter most hostile to John McCain, led off by painting the candidate as out of touch with what voters really care about:
Senator John McCain devoted most of two campaign appearances on Wednesday to lusty attacks on Senator Barack Obama and gave less attention, and offered very few specifics, to the growing economic woes of American voters.
....
Mr. McCain has never been comfortable talking about the economy, and in these final weeks of his nearly two-year, second-time quest of the presidency, with polls showing him losing increasing ground to Mr. Obama, Mr. McCain and his advisers have made the calculation that negative attacks will move at least some voters. Certainly those attacks pump up crowds on the campaign trail, where it is the sharp criticism of Mr. Obama, rather than Mr. McCain's once-over comments on the economy, that draw the biggest, loudest response from the conservative and almost all-white crowds that come to see Mr. McCain and Ms. Palin.
As the crowd booed angrily at each mention of Mr. Obama's name, Mr. McCain threw himself more vigorously into his speech.
....
At the same event, the Lehigh County Republican chairman, Bill Platt, twice referred to Mr. Obama from stage as "Barack Hussein Obama." Mr. McCain and Ms. Palin had not yet arrived at the arena when Mr. Platt made his remarks, and the McCain-Palin campaign later disavowed them as "inappropriate rhetoric."
Will Bumiller also criticize her own paper for calling Obama by his full name, as it did three times on its front page the day after Obama's acceptance speech at the Democratic Convention?
Bumiller went back to the well on Friday in a story coauthored with Patrick Healy in which the Times monitored a McCain rally in Wisconsin for more signs of GOP "anger" ("McCain Joins Attacks On Obama Over Radical").
The caption under a photo of McCain and Palin set the tone: "John McCain and Sarah Palin on Thursday in Waukesha, Wis. Their rallies have taken on an increasingly hostile atmosphere."
Bumiller and Healy led off with more "angry" crowds:
Senator John McCain joined in the attacks on Thursday on Senator Barack Obama for his ties to the 1960s radical William Ayers, telling an angry, raucous crowd in Wisconsin that "we need to know the full extent of the relationship" to judge whether Mr. Obama "is telling the truth to the American people or not."
....
But what has been most striking about the last 48 hours on the campaign trail is the increasingly hostile atmosphere at Mr. McCain's rallies, where voters furiously booed any mention of Mr. Obama and lashed out at the Democrats, Wall Street and the news media.
Co-author Bumiller followed up her piece yesterday with another crack about the predominantly white Republican crowd:
A short time later, James T. Harris, a conservative talk radio host in Wisconsin who was one of the few African-Americans in the crowd, stood up and told Mr. McCain that in the next presidential debate, on Wednesday, "it's absolutely vital that you take it to Obama, that you hit him" where it hurts, because "we have all of these shady characters that have surrounded him," as well as, he said, Mr. Obama's former pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr.

I had two things that
October 10, 2008 - 14:16 ET by USA4freedomI had two things that happened today that ties with this angry white people story.
I stop in my county voter registration office to make sure that I was registered to vote. I was the only white person standing in a line of about 12 people. They were all signing up on the last day here. While standing there they were all chatting about Obama, I asked them who they were going to vote for, a few looked at me like I’d lost my mind, most of them said Obama. One elderly woman asked me who I was voting for, I told her Mc Cain,then I hear someone behind me say loudly: that figures..
When I walked out after checking my status, two black men stared a hole through me, like they were trying to intimate me. I told them: you guys have a great day, they said: F___ You..
Every black person there votes for the black guy, that’s not racist, if I vote for the white guy that is..
Next stop, drove to the gun shop to shoot the bull, talk about the up coming hunting season, etc.
The parking lot is almost full, the place is a busier than I have ever seen it. I ask the owner, what’s going on? Big sale? He said that every one is afraid of riots after the election, I said your kidding? Nope every one is stocking up hoping that it will not happen but are trying to protect themselves and property if it does.
Then I read this article, can anyone name the last time white people rioted? Here is a list of race riots:
1980: MiamiRiots
1980: ChattanoogaRiot
1990: InglewoodHigh School riot: A riot that broke out in front of the school between 30Latino and Blacks after the black students leave the Cinco de Mayo day as revenge for running out on Black History Day.
1991: Crown Heights Riot
1992: Los Angeles Riots:In a reaction to the acquittal of all LA police officers involved in the video taped beating of RodneyKing; riots broke out mainly involving Black youth in the Black neighborhoods.
1996: St. Petersburg Riots: After Officer Jim Knight stopped 18 yr. old Tyron Lewis for speeding, his car lurched forward causing Knight to fire his weapon, fatally wounding the black teenager. Riots broke out and lasted for about 2 days.
2001: Cincinnati Riots: In a reaction to the acquittal of Steven Roach after the fatal shooting of an unarmed young Black male, Timothy Thomas, during a foot pursuit, riots broke out over the span of a few days.
2003: Benton Harbor Riot
2005: 2005 Toledo Riot: A race riot that broke out after the Neo Nazi protest marched through a black neighborhood.
2006: Fontana High School riot: Riot involving about 500 Latino and black students[43]
2006: PrisonRace Riots: A war between Latino and black prison gangs set off a series of riots across California[44][45]
2008: Locke High School riot[46]
Odd fact, no white people rioting.

The Logan Act is a United States federal law that forbids unauthorized citizens from negotiating with foreign governments. It was passed in 1799 and last amended in 1994. Violation of the Logan Act is a felony, punishable under federal law with imprisonment of up to three years.
The text of the Act is broad and is addressed at any attempt of a US citizen to conduct foreign relations without authority. However, there is no record of any convictions or even prosecutions under the Logan Act.[1][2]

It's time for the left to move on to the next attack, to help cover the fact that those "questions" about Ayers have not been answered. You know, those questions that it was "hateful" and "bigoted" to even ask.
They refer to "people" shouting "kill 'em," and portray it as hatred toward Obama. Real hatred, from the left, they ignore. Just like they have for years.
Maybe the reason McCain rallies are "almost all-white" is that 97% of black America is voting for the black candidate.
But we're the racists.

Exactly. The press is
October 10, 2008 - 14:03 ET by SmartypantsExactly. The press is trying to paint the picture that the Republican party is somehow racist, or appeals only to whites, because these crowds are "all-white". This is wrong on so many levels it is hard to know where to begin. First, Democrats and their media friends have successfully convinced most of the black population that Republicans are out to get them, and will throw their civil rights back to the 1950's. The media has also convinced so many that the Dems are the party of inclusion, despite the fact that their convention is far more restrictive in terms of who can speak and what they can say. Finally, 95% of the black population is going to vote for Obama this election. That does not leave a lot of black citizens left to appear at McCain campaign rallies. Added to this is the immense pressure which must exist within the culture to vote for Barack Obama, even if someone does not like his policies. Given this, how many black people are really enthused about appearing at a McCain rally? This is not the fault of McCain or his policies.
Let's face it: it's not
October 10, 2008 - 14:19 ET by motherbeltLet's face it: it's not just Obama. The crowds would be the same if it were Hillary Clinton. 95% of blacks vote Democrat no matter who the candidate is.
And McCain draws the same groups Republicans always draw.
They have been saying for some time that this election is going to come down to one group: white men. Hence Joe Biden on the Obama ticket.
Biden's a man?
October 10, 2008 - 15:03 ET by moovovaI thought Biden was Obama's female choice since he passed over Hillary.

"Television is a freak show" Bernie Goldberg
MB,
October 10, 2008 - 21:30 ET by Indiana JoeYou're right, usually about 90% of blacks vote Democrat. Bush set a modern record, I believe, pulling 11% of the black vote in 2000, maybe 2004, but I doubt it was then. He'd been too demonized by then. But Obama is pulling the most, he's got the biggest lock on a racial-demographic vote ever.
It's a shame, really, that blacks don't pay more attention to (or maybe aren't taught in public schools?) history, they'd know that the Republican party broke from the Democratic-Republican party over slavery. The ones who wanted to abolish it started their own party, the GOP.
They'd know that the first President the Republicans ever elected was Abraham Lincoln.
They'd realize that the racist South the Democrats hold up as an example of what Republicans want for blacks was actually a Democrat Party stronghold at the time. That Jim Crow laws were passed by Democrat-controlled states.
They'd understand that the 1965 Civil Rights Act that is the whole foundation of the modern equal rights movement was resisted by the Democrat-controlled Congress of the time, and would never had passed without Republican support.
How do you convince people that they've been snookered by their historic enemies when they don't care about history?
That's sad, pathetic and sickening, when I think about it. So I try not to.

October 10, 2008 - 14:49 ET by XJ.Jonwith this whole line of thinking, doesn't this mean that whites are more bipartisan than blacks?
LOL.
Couldn't resist. This whole racism thing would be dead a long time ago if it weren't for the "Looney Left" and their infatuation with the race card. If you have ever watched the news, you know this is true. They are the only ones that use the race card. We, here on the right, a) have common decency and respect for people, and b) are trying to put the race issue behind America. We understand that nothing good has come from the "Race Card" in many, many years. It is one of the Leftist ideas that plagues America to this day, and will continue to do so for many years, I am afraid.
I am pissed off! What the hell do you expect, libs &MSM? Our founding fathers are rolling in their graves! The very idea that they tried so hard to prevent, has plagued America for years now, and is only getting worse. That idea is BIGGER GOVERNMENT. the founders of our Constitiution made it very clear that Government must be controlled and limited. And we are only giving more power and more power to the government. So "great thinkers", when do you think the Government will be reliquishing these said powers?
Bottom line
October 10, 2008 - 15:17 ET by moovovaThe bottom line is that I would vote for ANYBODY whose values and principles most closely aligned with mine. If the candidate was a blind, stuttering, Budhist, paraplegic, 3 foot 2 inch tall black female that talked and drooled while chewing their food, then so be it. As long as I trusted them to do the right thing, or at least the "righter" thing.
I have NO trust in Barack Obama, and that is why I AM NOT voting for him.
Dire prospect
October 10, 2008 - 15:47 ET by CTI predict that this country will be more divided then anytime since the election of Lincoln if a black Marxist is elected president this November.

October 10, 2008 - 16:20 ET by mom_roxRecall that it was Bumiller who in March 2008 asked John McCain why he was "so angry". The video shows that McCain was annoyed, but not angry.

OK - ya know what? I am no
October 10, 2008 - 16:46 ET by MazziOK - ya know what? I am no longer playing the racist game.
If someone wants to imply, suggest or even call me a flipping racist, I don't care! I am not going to dignify it with a protest, even. I know what's in my heart, and I know what my history is with people from different ethnicities - so to hell with these morons who toss out a condemnation against me, because I am white.
The radicals have done this, over the last 50 years. They have made people ashamed to be white. They have demanded that we shut up while they walked all over us with their own racist rhetoric, justifying that because they were once oppressed (or because they represent people who were once oppressed).
They have worked up class hatred and incited anger instead of helping people learn to get along. God forbid, anyone dare to disagree with them, it must be because they have bigotry in their hearts.
I am sick of it! I am not a racist - and from now on, if anyone suggests that I am, my answer is "prove it or shut the ___ up!"

October 10, 2008 - 17:03 ET by MrShyYou want angry and hostile and all-around completely disrespectful and crude? Here ya' go, straight from the Grey Ladie's balanced collection of comments to an article that dared to write that Palin is not pure evil.
I collected the best-hits of just the first 25 that I could tolerate reading before I got so disgusted. Each - and - every - one - of - them *HATING* Palin with varying degrees of passion.
Here is a sampling of their complete dismissal, irrational fear, and utter disdain for her:
"Palin is smart, politically skilled, courageous and likable." Are you kidding? She is a McCarthyesque liar who got a 400 on her SAT's. She is, very simply, a monumentally deluded power-hungry mediocrity, with a knack for inspiring the darkest and stupidest instincts in the American psyche.
Sarah Palin is not likable, and she is certainly not smart.
While Sarah Palin may not be stupid , she is self indulgently ignorant and as Mark Shields has already pointed out, she suffers from that most insidious form of ignorance: she does not know what she does not know.
So why in the world do you see Palin so favorably? I see someone who would have trouble winning a 4th grade debate
When you simply say that Palin constantly plays class warfare, as if this is politics as usual, and ignore the shocking sickening immorality of her words and actions, you become an accessory to crime. She is guilty of rousing hatred and racism, and the true guilt by association is not denouncing it forcefully enough.
"Palin is smart, politically skilled, courageous and likable."... There is no evidence she is any of the above. All intellectually honest republicans should be ashamed of her demagoguery.

What is McCain
October 10, 2008 - 19:16 ET by gregfaheyWhat is McCain doing?
He's letting the MSM control his attacks on Obama. I just watched CNN
and they are finding the "Trooper Firing" in Alaska a HUGE story. Wolf
Blitzer was harping about the "disturbing rage" at McCain-Palin rallies
and pretty much quoted McCain as saying "Obama's a nice guy and let's
have a nice campaign...".
My God! What on earth is he thinking? If McCain thinks playing nice
and letting the chips fall where they may will work then he's
certifiable!
The MSM quotes Palin every time she opens her mouth. Why is she not
bringing up the right to bear arms issue? This is a WINNING ISSUE for
Republicans. States like MI, VA, TN OH, can be won if McCain starts to
act more like Teddy Roosevelt than Bob Dole. I mean, come on!
Abortion, Guns, Ayers. If he sits on these issues, it's over
already. I am more than frustrated. I am beyond scared. I am seething
with anger. I cannot believe McCain is Bob Doling his campaign into the
ground. He's got Palin and he's keeping her on the bench whilst he
fiddles and diddles his opportunity away.
I keep waiting for McCain to show the huge differences between his
and an Obama admin with regards to guns. Schumer, Pelosi, et al will
wet their pants with glee if Obama gets in with a Dem majority.
Am I missing something? Am I the only feeling this way? Is anyone
else as upset as I am? It's like watching a toilet flush in slow
motion. People, there goes the USA and McCain is boxing with nerf
gloves on!
Aaarrrggghhh!
Truth be told
October 10, 2008 - 19:37 ET by TheAssessorWe're all getting angry. I can't imagine McCain the fighter backing down like this but he seems to be. Anger is energy and it needs an outlet or it will find one. When you try to run down a coyote it will run until it's out of breath to get away. When it gets too tired to run... it will turn around... and come right at you. If you don't have a gun and a good aim, you'd better be the one to start running. Americans ain't runnin, but we're turning around. Where the hell is John Wayne when we need him.
"I have a bracelet too" ..Barak Obama, Psychopath
I agree McCain needs to
October 10, 2008 - 21:37 ET by Indiana JoeI agree McCain needs to push some other issues, gun rights being one of them. Maybe he's saving them for closer to the election, I don't know. Make Obama defend his record like with Ayers, right before people vote. Maybe it's a strategy, I don't know.
They tried to tie his hands with the "angry temper" charge, but that seems to be wearing off. He's been on the attack lately, you can tell by the crying of the left.
I'm ready to think it's going to be all right... maybe. Sure it may look dark now, but we have a few weeks to go.
I'm not giving up yet.

October 11, 2008 - 11:48 ET by SchnikeysFinally, someone who mirrors my sentiments toward McCain. He is a pathetic person.
Yeah, he survived well in the Hanoi Hilton, and served his country graciously. But that was then.
Today, he is stabbing everyone in the back. Vote third party, and relish (as I will) watching this weak-minded human being get shoved unceremoniously into the bag of defeat and humiliation.
Usually my ticket is a combination of Republicans and third-party candidates. This election, Presidential part of my ticket is going the third party candidate.
But you see, McCain has this rare organ that no one else has...it's shaped like a gun, it's attached to the front of his leg, and it points downward...
