"He Thinks Us White People Are Trash"

Some chilling yet not exactly surprising admissions from the heartland:

This is what happens when misinformation and prejudice are encouraged to run rampant amongst supporters by a presidential campaign; John McCain needs to decide very soon if he's going to try to ride this ugly wave all the way to the White House (which is looking less and less likely if you follow the polls) or if he's going to remember that he was once an honorable man and try to salvage some aspect of that persona for the remainder of his career. I suppose that explaining that Obama is half white would be a little too much for these people to wrap their prejudices around; 20 days until election day.
