If McCain's supporters who are racist
work for him and display racist posters, he should get rid of them.

Get rid of them how? He can't fire them if they're volunteers. How could
McCain or any other candidate inspect the personal spaces or vouch for
uniformity of thought for every one of his supporters?

You know I thought the same, until myself and most of the volunteers who
opened the Perot campaign headquarter in Raleigh and Charlotte, NC were fire
wholesale, and Perot sent in his *Dallas White Shirts back in '92. They
acquired the rented office space from the landlord and changed the door
locks. It happend all over the country. I talked to Perot volunteers in
many state, at that time, who were also let go and replaced by the Dallas
White Shirts.

Agreed.

In this time of easy communications, I am sure either of them could
find a way. For starters, wouldn't it be nice if Obama told his
Houston office to remove the poster? A simple mandate, "Do not
embarass me," should suffice. I am not saying that Obama is praising
Guevara, but his *people* are. He should be able to control that. If
not, how in the hell is he going to run a *country* if he can't run a
simple campaign office?

the website clearly states(Fox website) that the office pictured WAS NOT a
campaign office, but merely belonged to a group of folks who volunteered to
work on his campaign. Spare me a leader who would be control freak enough to
tell those who support him on general principles HOW to think. We've seen
enough of that sort of all or nothing political thought, IMO.
