With just three weeks to go until Election Day, the McCain campaign has launched a nationwide talent search to find angry audience members for their increasingly hate-filled rallies, McCain aides confirmed today.
"People assume that when we hold a rally, angry white people just magically appear, but that's not the case," said McCain aide Hardin Carley. "The fact is, a lot of planning goes into this."

Sir; ...Even if the Big O Bama express rolls into Washington DEECEE as schedualed; the republicans still need cover for non cooperation. Sure, the hatred and bile and poison pumped out in this election may not be shared with the actual politicians. I wish it were. They can afford to be placid, and respectful. The amity of government is turned into the enmity of the population. Wouldn't it be better for them to fight it out there, rather than all that slow dancing with the honorable so and so from who cares??? It is government which should resolve our differences instead of playing upon them, lighting them on fire so they can roast the weenies of their choice on the coals....The fires lit in this election will burn for a long time. The politicians will point to those fires and stoke them up -to cover doing as they please. It does not serve the process at all. Candidates should run on their virtues, and not on the vices of the opposition... But; haven't we seen this before??? I mean, who could love the Clintons; but what good could they do when they so early pushed away their majority for a responsible government??? Clearly government does not require a balanced budget... To stand on a point the republicans were willing to wash away with the whole country is crazy. But the Clintons failed because the republicans made them a target of poison and hate and baseless charges... So it begins again, that while the people are having their say, the defeated will act to make government impossible to guide.... I like it. As a revolutionary this is the most perfect situation imaginable. But I would not bankrupt my government and throw fuel on the flames of hate. Some clowns with life vests always think it is fun to rock the boat.... I don't.. If government should be reformed it does not mean violence is necessary. But those who sow division and enmity for personal gain should be viewed as criminals. It is better that they be defeated than the whole of the people...Thanks...Sweeney
