Where’s Barack?

Senator Jay Rockefeller: “McCain was a fighter pilot, who dropped laser-guided missiles from 35,000 feet. He was long gone when they hit. What happened when they [the missiles] get to the ground? He doesn’t know. You have to care about the lives of people. McCain never gets into those issues.”

McCain Spokesman Tucker Bonds: “Why does Sen. Obama refuse to personally condemn this type of despicable attack? Sen. Obama has run for president on the basis that he represents a new kind of politics, yet every day there is another smear that Obama refuses to repudiate. I do believe that if Senator Obama is going to maintain the type of campaign that he says that he is — a respectful campaign — and this is one of his closest and strongest supporters, then I think he should repudiate Senator Rockefeller immediately.”
