The racism and hatred of the McCain/Palin hate mob rallies reached a new low. During a recent campaign stop in Iowa, a participant yelled loudly ‘He’s an (n-word).’
Although it was clearly audible to TV cameras and crews, Palin did not address the racist epithet one way or another. The Alaska Governor appears to stumble for a brief moment but keeps on going.
This comes on the heels of a McCain/Palin supporter, holding up a sign comparing Obama to mass murderer Charles Manson during a rally for Minnesota Republican Senator Norm Coleman. The sign was held up when 'First Dude' Todd Palin was introducing the embattled senator who may lose his seat to Democrat Al Franken on Election Day.
As usual, no one at the McCain/Palin rally, from campaign workers to the Secret Service detail, did a thing about it.
