		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;As usual, there don’t appear to be any of those around here. But also as usual, the scolds are right on top of the matter, in case any should appear.&lt;/blockquote&gt;For the record, &lt;i&gt;my&lt;/i&gt; comment was slightly tongue in cheek. That&#039;s why it was followed by the comment about them being &quot;full of... &lt;i&gt;excuses&lt;/i&gt;&quot;. 

Quite a serious bunch... Did I come a bad day or something? :-P</description>

		<description>I am more than a little tired of politicians pretending they had NO idea and are *shocked* that someone who supports them has a tendency to say appalling things.  And if they personally cannot keep track of the bigoted crap that comes out of people&#039;s mouths. surely they should have a staffer somewhere who can use google.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;I wonder what former Hillary supporters who are now backing McCain have to say about it, though.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;All you former HRC voters who are thinking about voting McCain to “punish” the DMC I hope you are paying attention.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

As usual, there don&#039;t appear to be any of those around here. But also as usual, the scolds are right on top of the matter, in case any should appear. I&#039;m lead to believe that there&#039;s a lot more hype about HRC supporters turning to McCain than there are actual HRC supporters turning to McCain. The ones who do exist - wherever they are, whoever they are - were probably Republicans in the first place. Ever consider the possibility that conservative women were excited about the prospect of finally having a female president too? And that many of them perceived HRC to be moderate enough for them to vote for?</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;During the same campaign, he compared rape to the weather, saying, “As long as it’s inevitable, you might as well lie back and enjoy it.”&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Not to detract from how horrible that comment was , but if a tornado is coming towards my house, I grab my pets &amp; hurry to the basement. I don&#039;t &quot;lie back &amp; enjoy it.&quot; 

Clayton Williams is a massive douche.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;“As long as it’s inevitable, you might as well lie back and enjoy it.”&lt;/em&gt; I just stopped when I saw this statement.  That McCain could associate with someone who could say something this anti-woman is testimony to who much he really values women. All you former HRC voters who are thinking about voting McCain to &quot;punish&quot; the DMC I hope you are paying attention.  This is what you will be getting.</description>

		<description>One might expect people who have supported McCain all along to make excuses and try to minimize Clayton&#039;s hideous comments. I wonder what former Hillary supporters who are now backing McCain have to say about it, though. 

Then again, anyone who can bounce straight from Hillary&#039;s camp to McCain&#039;s has to be full of... excuses already.

But maybe McCain &lt;i&gt;did&lt;/i&gt; forget what Clayton had said. Maybe it&#039;s only memorable to those of us who were shocked an appalled by it. It&#039;s easy to forget things that don&#039;t leave any kind impression on you. Either way, it&#039;s a terrible reflection of McCain&#039;s character.</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t think I was old enough to be following this sort of thing when this happened, but I have a vague memory floating around of that comment. There&#039;s no way McCain didn&#039;t know about it, he&#039;s just sorry all us humorless types are bringing it up again. Funny how that works.</description>
