At some McCain rallies the crowds have been led in chants calling for

Where do you get this crap from?
It comes from the mainstream press and it's well documented.
The McCain rallies in question were in Florida and McCain himself
was not present but represented by his attack dog Sarah Palin.
Here's an OpEd from today's _Washington Post_:
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...101302173.html
McCain: "He is a decent person and a person that you do not have
to be scared about as President of the United States. If I didn't
think I would be one heck of a better president I wouldn't be
running."
Older Woman: "I have read about him. He's an Arab".
McCain: "No, ma'am. No, ma'am. He's a decent, family man, citizen
that I just happen to have disagreements with on fundamental issues
and that's what this campaign is all about."
I'm actually rather happy with the character of both the candidates.
They both appear to be decent
people.
You're quoting McCain himself reacting to the backlash. McCain
himself may have once been an honorable man, and I have no reason
to doubt that he was, but he has allowed his campaign to degenerate
into very dangerous territory.
